Come live your magical cottage-core dreams at Green Tree Cottage in Mendocino!

Come live your magical cottage-core dreams at Green Tree Cottage, a 1-bed, 1-bath vacation home tucked away among towering redwoods in the heart of Mendocino. Perfect for couples looking for a romantic destination that awakens the imagination or for small families looking for a quiet place to recharge, Green Tree Cottage offers seclusion and relaxation a short drive from downtown Mendocino. This home will win your heart with its charm and whimsy, which is paired with a fully-equipped kitchen and a modern, state-of-the-art bathroom.

When you arrive, you'll discover a rustic and cozy cottage, with sloped eaves and exposed beams. In the living room, you can browse a selection of books ideal for reading after a long day lounging at the beach or sampling Mendocino's many culinary options. Or, if you prefer to catch up on shows and movies, the comfy couch and big-screen TV have got you covered. The couch can convert into a mattress.

In the kitchen, a small table seats up to 4. An electric stove, oven, coffeemaker, tea kettle, refrigerator, and dishwasher come in handy for home-cooked dinners, breakfasts, and afternoon tea. Granite countertops and a stainless-steel sink make meal prep a breeze. From the light fixtures to the plumbing, this home is built with quality craftsmanship and design flourishes to make you feel at home.

Situated on Law Road off Gurley Lane, a quiet street east of Highway 1, Green Tree Cottage is a great home base for visiting all the best places on the Mendocino Coast. You're just up Little Lake Road from downtown Mendocino, where you'll find delightful, quaint, and creative shops, art galleries, restaurants, cafes, and more! Stop by local favorite Gallery Bookshop; with luck, you might see the resident bookshop cat while selecting your next vacation read. You will also be close to Big River beach with its white sands, hidden coves and stunning nature trail (Beach towels and chairs are available on request).

If you prefer your walks with a side of shopping, stroll Main Street before crossing over to Mendocino Headlands State Park, which is crisscrossed by footpaths, all with amazing coastal views.

North of Mendocino, chase waterfalls at Russian Gulch State Park or visit the Point Cabrillo Light Station to marvel at the craftsmanship of the beacon and enjoy exhibits about life on the Mendocino Coast at the turn of the 20th Century. Farther north, the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens boast over 40 acres of beautiful plants, trees and flowers, including the famous dahlia gardens, rhododendrons, and succulents. Fort Bragg (about 15 minutes north of Mendocino) has murals, art galleries, restaurants, community events, and shops, as well as world-renowned breweries.

When it's time to call it a night, the plush queen bed with a Tempurpedic mattress, will be there to welcome you to dreamland. A peaceful refuge, the bedroom has sliding glass doors to the patio and backyard. The bathroom features high-end fixtures, a Toto toilet with heated seat and bidet, including a large shower.

Greet each day (and the redwoods) relaxed and refreshed. Savor the scent of the fresh forest air and let the sound of the trees in the breeze sing to you on your storybook vacation at Green Tree Cottage!

Note on the location: the owners are on site and have a super friendly dog that loves to be petted - EXTREMELY nice and decent people, the BEST kind of people!
The vacation home features a kitchen and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. The vacation home also includes a coffee maker.

Great place and experience! This rates as one of our all-time favorite places to stay. First, you feel special with all the nice touches for a guest. The host seems to have thought of everything and provided a nice welcome basket (a dying trend among rentals). Spacious and clean, and seems new. Nice sized bedside tables, with easy plug-in strip (for our CPAPs). Lots of counter space in kitchen and bathroom. Good lighting. Air filter devices and a fresh water unit.Second, the location is awesome. Away from bustling Hwy 101 into a stretch of tall big trees along their road. What a great feeling to walk and drive on that road. And it is so dark and quiet. So comforting and peaceful. Yet, it's a short drive to town, too.

Property was exactly as advertised. Clean, quiet, and beautiful. Amenities were plentiful with snacks and coffee stocked. Bed was cozy. The environment is so peaceful and beautiful. The host were amazingly accommodating and incredibly friendly. Getting to say hello to their wonderful dog every morning was a major positive. Centrally located and close to everything. I cant wait to book our next stay.
