About this house rental

This Pacific Ocean retreat is ideal for those seeking peace, quiet, and spectacular sunsets.  The Whale Watch House is located in one of Mendocino’s best-kept and most-exclusive coastal neighborhoods just one mile north of the historic Mendocino Village .

Through the many large picture windows you will enjoy unparalleled views of the blue Pacific Ocean while your privacy is ensured by the surrounding grove of mature cypress trees.  There are plenty of opportunities for outdoor activities such as walking, jogging, and biking just outside the front door.  The main entrance to Russian Gulch State Park and the Point Cabrillo Lighthouse are both within walking distance.
 

Enjoy a morning cup of coffee or an afternoon glass of wine on the large deck and watch the seals, migrating whales, as well as an abundance of wildlife including black tail deer, wild turkeys, raccoons, foxes, brown pelicans and other sea birds.

Description, reviews, photos were all spot on. Home was comfortable, sooo convenient, picture-perfect. Not one glitch in the communication, check-in or out, no problems at all with the house and its amenities. Couldn't be more convenient to Mendocino, Fort Bragg...the entire coastal area. We've been doing VRBO and local resorts for over 35 years and have two canine kids that travel with us half the time, and this property and management were welcoming to all of us! Oh! And whale watching...we sighted over 40 blows in the few days we were here...right from the front deck and THE LIVING ROOM!!! Dare you to beat that!!!! :-)) Worth every penny.

This was our 2nd time at the Whale Watch, first time was 10 years ago. We love the view and the nice neighborhood. The house is set up perfectly for guests. It’s very close to town. We will definitely be going back!
