The bonus room next to master is not practical for adults as it warrants one person needs to wake up before the other, also the deck boards are a hazard. Other than that beautiful home and would definitely stay again.

What an amazing place to stay! We couldn’t have picked a better place to stay while visiting the redwoods! Check in was effortless with great instructions. The house was amazing. Make sure you read about the room set up closely. One room is just a bed on the landing at the top of the stairs and another room is through the master bathroom. It worked for us as our kids stayed in that room, and I certainly wouldn’t take away from the rating over this! Lola was wonderful and quick to respond to a question I had, and when we forgot something when we left had it at the post office the next day for us to get shipped! We had coffee every morning on the porch with the fire and everything we needed to cook meals! I wish I had taken more pictures of the house, but pictures posted on listing are accurate!

Great for family gathering

This property worked beautifully for our family. It was within close proximity to another VRBO we were able to rent to accommodate everyone. The only issue we ran into was with the upstairs family room. It was obvious it had been closed up and smelled a little musty. Thankfully, we didn’t need to used it and were able to utilize all the other sleeping surfaces. The deck was amazing! Location perfect.

Peaceful settings, steps to the redwoods

We had a fantastic trip to the Jedidiah Smith redwoods near Crescent City California. This home was comfortable, well appointed and exactly as advertised. Communications with the host were great. We did find that the Wi-Fi was not working, but we honestly didn’t even mention it during our stay because we were happy to disconnect. I feel certain that if I had mentioned it, they would have corrected the problem. It was a very easy drive or a comfortable walk from our cabin to numerous hiking trails. We wish we had had longer to visit. We would happily return to this property.

Just what we needed!

So glad we found this spot. It was perfect for our elopement in Stout Grove, as it was just a 5 minute drive down the road. The house had everything we needed to cook dinner, play some games together and just relax. The house was clean and welcoming when we arrived. Although we had no issues and didn’t need to contact the host. I believe there would be no issues if we had to. Check in/out was effortless and I would definitely rent again if we’re ever in the area again.

Magical Stay

We had a fantastic time! The location of this property could not be better. So peaceful and beautiful. Right up the road are the redwoods. We also spent a lot of time swimming, cliff jumping, and rope swinging in the river. We spent all day out playing, and then the house was so great to come back to. It was bright and spacious, every single bed was comfortable, even the towels were soft.We made a lot of wonderful memories here. Thank you

Million dollar view! Setup was awkward

Seriously, the location and view are amazing. And generally everything was pretty comfortable, although one of the downstairs mattresses slumped toward the center. The biggest inconvenience is that if you have a big group with people staying in the bonus room, it can only be accessed through the master bedroom and bathroom. So, we had 6 people using the upstairs bathroom, and my nephews coming through the bedroom at odd hours :-D That said, we'd stay here again if we didn't have people sleeping in the bonus room.

Beautiful Cabin off the river

We loved this home. It was the perfect place to stay-both bc of the location and the home itself. It was just down the street from Stout Grove and other incredible locations in Jedediah Smith Redwoods and only a 15 min drive from Crescent city. The home itself is beautiful, well-stocked, and very comfortable. We loved our stay and would suggest it to anyone who is looking!
