This is a 3 bedroom property. There is an open loft with a cot and a bonus room with a cot. The bonus room is through the primary bedroom, then bathroom. One of the queen beds needs a new mattress as it has a deep depression in the center which made sleeping difficult. The king mattress in the primary bedroom and other queen bed were comfortable. The living room furniture was comfortable but would be better with another adult seat. Kitchen cabinets were thoughtfully labeled and basic kitchen staples provided. The windows really need some blinds or curtains as we found ourselves looking for hats to shade our eyes from the afternoon sun. They also need a professional cleaning and the spider webs cleaned off. The loft needs curtains or blinds for light control and privacy from the street. Bathrooms were clean with lots of towels and extra blankets. The location is spectacular. We had a great time exploring the redwoods. Great parking for our 2 cars and big truck.

What a beautiful property that allows a retreat from the hustle and bustle of the world. We stayed here because the property is literally along a road that leads right into Jedidiah Smith Redwoods State Park. Location is excellent, the home is cozy and has all the things we needed and more. All of the beds were comfortable, kitchen was ample with all amenities and dishware you would need to "cook-in" vs eating out (bring your own food, of course), and the bathrooms were all clean with ample space, inside and out of the showers. There were only 5 of us that stayed at the home, but there could have easily been 10 of us and still felt spacious. Favorite thing? The towering trees right outside the front picture windows. Would we come back? YES. And we'd bring the three others who didn't get to come this time. NOTE: There is no cell coverage at the cabin, so make sure you get the front door code and save it t prior to arriving at the cabin, because you can't rely on cell service to look it up. There is wifi, so no worries there.

Huge variety of different sleeping spaces. Comfortable and homey. Peaceful surroundings. Easy parking. Easy access considering remote location. You definitely feel like you’re smack in the middle of the redwoods. You’re not crammed in among a bunch of other rentals.

The property welcomed our pet and when our plans changed & we could not bring her, the Manager promptly refunded the pet fee. The kitchen was adequate, appliances above average, there were plenty of towels and hot water, and the home was clean.It was a 3 minute drive to the Redwoods visitor center and five more to the Redwoods Grove. Golden Grove is an excellent home to stay in to explore the redwoods.Disappointments were the porch light was burned out making it difficult to see the access codes in the dark forest night & through trial & error we figured out the lock had to be moved too, this was not in the instructions. Area rugs are curling becoming tripping hazards,our queen bed sunk in the middle making it awkward, the living room chais lounge was worn and hard to get off of the depression, and to use the TVs we had to use our personal access codes, so we had no movie or shows together.We rate Golden Grove a solid four stars. In order to get a 5 all beds, furniture, rugs and carpet need to be in safe & comfortable condition and we would like TV.

This was an awesome stay! Lovely home and responsive management. It would be handy for future visitors to know they should keep the door code somewhere besides their phones since none of us staying there had phone service to access the code which was only in on the website or emails that we couldn't access.

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.
