Find a timeless coastal retreat at this three-bedroom Fort Bragg cottage, a welcoming family home with a sun-splashed deck with outdoor shower, a beautiful tree-lined property, and wonderful access to nearby towns, beaches, and ocean bluffs.
This quaint home sits on an open, grassy property, right on the edge of lush woodlands and the eastern reaches of MacKerricher State Park. Head four miles south into downtown Fort Bragg to hop on board the Skunk Train or marvel at the treasures on Glass Beach, spend afternoons exploring the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens seven miles south, and take short walks down to MacKerricher's ocean bluffs to look for passing whales and watch spectacular sunsets.
With wood floors including newly installed LVP flooring, large windows, and thoughtful, comfortable furnishings, this cheerful cottage is full of bucolic charm. Spend foggy mornings reading on the plush sectional sofa, cozying up by the electric fireplace, and flipping pancakes in the full country kitchen with natural wood cabinetry, standard appliances, and a dishwasher.
Take daily excursions to the artsy village of Mendocino (14 miles south) and other breathtaking stretches of California Highway 1, and return home to unwind in the sunshine on the deck. Set the dining room table or the patio table for dinner, and linger outside with a bottle of wine to watch the stars fill the night sky. Back inside, you'll have a cable TV and free WiFi to bring the evening to a relaxing close.

Three siblings reunited for a fun weekend and your place was perfect for us! Close to a great walking beach and not far from a surfing beach! Plus close to shopping and food! The house was super cozy and welcoming. We felt right at home!Thank you so much!

We stayed in Fort Bragg/ Cleone for 3 nights. The home is a great central location if you want to explore Mendocino's Redwoods. We just came for the ocean and the forest.
6.0 / 10.0Average·May 2024
Nestled in a beautiful, private lush green setting, this house is located perfectly with a short walk down the residential area to the beach. We loved that we didn't have to drive to get to the haul road where, before giant waves took out the connection through the park, you could walk literally for miles.
What we didn't love is that it needs a serious deep cleaning. (the cleaning by the Vacasa staff was fine) Dusty waterstained curtains, old cobwebs and grimy buildup in the bathrooms was off putting. It was most notable in the kitchen, which seemed like an afterthought to the rest of the house, as the kitchen cabinets were tacky with grease, probably because the outdated stove had an non-operable vent fan. The windows in the kitchen (and everywhere else) have no screens which allowed flies in. Half the cabinets had glass doors, half had none. While we were able to cook our meals, the kitchen was only barely adequately stocked with basic items. Hard to find two items the same size for serving or eating, like a cobbled together hodgepodge of dishes.
The dryer has a short run, maybe two feet, but the exhaust hose was so long, crimped and ballooning from pressure that it took 90 minutes to dry a very small load of laundry. House is a mix of outdated and updated, one of the bathrooms was very nice although both toilets were badly stained brown. During our stay the water from the faucets was often murky, maybe from the cistern and because it was raining but that was also off putting. Maybe it's a work in progress, but the owners could really make it sing with some TLC, some work on the deferred maintenance and congruity throughout.
