Charming cottage
Some difficulty obtaining the address of the property because of lack of internet on the drive through the mountains. It wasn’t clear on my check in where that information was located on the Vrbo site. Owner did respond quickly. Did not use kitchen other than the refrigerator. The only real complaint would be the wobbly toilet that ran 100% of our time. Seems that should be addressed.

Comfortable stop on a long road-trip.
This cute cottage was perfect for my family of four and our pup (thanks again for being dog-friendly -- the basket of toys, blankets, & bowls was such a nice touch!). We didn't have too much time in Garberville but really enjoyed the garden and the decor in the cottage. The clawfoot tub was a bit of a (cool) throwback, and I loved the tapestries and overall peaceful vibe of the place. I'd definitely stay again and would enjoy exploring the area when not in the middle of a 20-hour drive ;). Thanks again.

Cute house!
This property is super cute. Its a small house, but has everything you could need during a stay. It was very clean and the beds were comfortable. The back yard is adorable. This was a great stop over on our way to the redwoods. Great history of the house and a gracious host.

Grandma's Cottage
This property gave me nostalgia of my grandparents' farm cabin except this cottage has plumbing. I loved the memories it revived in me. It's an old house in a sleepy town. The area can feel a little creepy in the evenings if you aren't used to the quiet, the crows, or rural blue collar people. We walked to a restaurant for dinner and bought snacks at the grocery store. It was very safe, although, we joked how we felt we were on a movie set for a horror film. I loved the experience. The next morning we walked to breakfast, and the town was more lively with people. We tried the cafe on the main road but it was full and busy. We saw a sign at the street corner pointing us to another small café behind the busy one, called Amillia's. Our meals and coffee were delicious. Go there. Beds were comfortable for 2 men and two teenagers. Having a shower in the freestanding tub with the window open in the bathroom was refreshing. It's nothing fancy but there were personal touches throughout like complementary lemongrass soap, fountain in the private yard, and dog items for people with pets. The location was great. The town had restaurants and groceries (most things close by 8:30-9pm) you can walk to from here. There were a few gas stations too. We did all our hiking and exploring of the avenue of the giants from here.

Perfect
Such a lovely place absolutely perfect , and it feels so cozy and like home , what a spectacular decorating job to make it so nice , all other locations should take a note from these guys
Nice two bedroom one bath rustic home close to the center of town. We traveled here for a wedding and this cottage worked perfectly. It is an old home with much character.
Mary’s place is a lovely home away from home. Cute and quaint home with everything we needed.

Cozy & Convenient
Sleeps 3-5 easily if you share the main beds. Pellet stove very easy to operate and can heat the entire place. Plenty of pillows for the beds and lots of throw pillows too. Quiet location, diner around the corner. Coffee maker, hot water kettle, stove and microwave. Powerful shower if you like that sort of thing. Nice backyard courtyard to hang out in if the weather is nice. Washer and dryer are a nice plus as well. I’d definitely stay here again.
Truly a quaint cottage - but spacious enough for two couples. Well appointed - everything you need is there. The beds were comfortable, it was very clean and the garden is fascinating with it's variety of plants. It is an interesting little place!
Love this property. Great location for excursions. Yard is private and bikes are great.

A wonderful cottage at the gateway to the redwoods
This sweet cottage was just what we were looking for on a weekend trip to visit the Avenue of the Giants. Adorable vintage feel (including a claw foot tub!), comfy beds and an enclosed garden space. Great communication with property manager, wonderful hospitality and a cheerful and welcoming vibe. Would stay again!
This place has character and is a great place to stop and chill in between our excursions.

Small, charming cottage with a lovely garden area. If you have mobility issues, getting into and out of the (wonderful) old claw foot tub, necessary for bath or shower, can be a challenge, but otherwise comfortable. Great host responsiveness.
