We have stayed in this lovely and very comfortable apartment several times, and I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else. You have a nice view of the coast - and the Mendocino Headlands, with all its trails, cliffs and offshore rocks, are a five-minute walk outside the front door.

We really enjoyed our stay at this location. It is perfectly situated within walking distance of the village and a beautiful view of the Mendocino headlands. The Little studio is is well equipped with everything you need for dining in, spending a day at the beach, or watching a movie with a nice little fire place. There are two chairs out front with the table in between for sitting outside and enjoying the view. It is peaceful, quiet, and relaxing. Relaxing. A wonderful place to spend your vacation.

This is our third time in this wonderful little cottage. It has everything we need and more...the power went out during our stay and a generator kicked on...stayed on till the power came back on! The location, the views, the town of Mendocino--just perfect if you want peace and quiet, walking along the headlands and enjoying good food (either at a local restaurant or making it yourself with groceries from Harvest Market). Peter and Cheri are excellent hosts.

Mendocino's finest VRBO!
This is our third or fourth stay at this cottage and we will always stay here when we visit Mendocino. Cozy and extremely comortable with beautiful uninterrupted ocean views.Our dream vacation style is to arrive, park our car and then walk to everything we want to do locally. The location of this cottage offers that perfectly. All the restaurants and even the local grocery store are within easy walking distance.We like to cook our own breakfasts and the kitchen here has everything we needed.The owner Cheri is wonderful and extremely responsive.All in all the perfect stay in Mendocino!!

Cheri made the check-in easy, and welcoming. The space was clean, renewed, and has all of the equipment necessary (spatulas, coffee machine, pots and pans, even a charger!) to make moving in and out as efficient as possible. No wonder this place is always booked! The location is stunning and safe, with access to both entries in and out of the park.

Sweet, comfy, total gem!
2 of us stayed 4 nights here and loved it. Even better than the pics. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend. Everything was clean and comfortable. I loved the thoughtful style of the place. We used the bbq one night which was fun. We felt at home, great energy. Perfect location, I loved waking up to see the sunrise and walk on the coastal trails just across from the studio. The studio has gorgeous wooden ceiling beams. The only thing I would change is: 1) the lighting, with better lighting you could really accentuate the natural warmth of the studio, and 2) the towels had a very slight musty smell to them.

A Lovely Birthday Getaway
We like to go to Mendocino every year for my birthday. This cottage was the perfect place to stay. Cheri has thought of everything! From a fully equipped kitchen, to chilled glasses and water, to walking sticks and folding chairs, everything you need is here. The cottage is comfortable and relaxing, and walking distance to any place in town. And talk about a view! What a great way to wake up in the morning. Thank you so much, Cheri.
I cant even count how many times we have stayed here but it never disappoints! Best value in Mendocino
