Having arrived in the middle of a storm, we were surprised and happy to find the house had back up power. While some things didn’t function, the majority of the house did. Heat, lights, hot water were not a problem.

Perfection!

This was our first stay on the CA coast and Buckhorn Cove did nothing but amaze us! There are no pictures that will do the view justice!!! Don’t second guess booking! Just do it! Mendocino is such a great town and everyone was so kind!!! We will be back!

Amazing spot!

Visited for my birthday and could not be happier with my visit. Even with the winter weather i was able to enjoy the views from the family room and the peninsula, in fact the weather made it even more dramatic! Cozy, warm, comfortable and still able to enjoy the ocean!
