Epic Mendocino Ocean Views, 5BR, Tesla Charger

Epic Mendocino Ocean Views, 5BR, Tesla Charger

10/10 Excellent
"We had a fantastic experience at this property. The ocean views are absolutely spectacular, and one of the highlights was being able to watch whales right from the deck. We could keep looking out at the ocean throughout our stay and were lucky enough to see whale activity, which made the experience truly special.The evening sunset was beautiful — sitting on the deck and watching the sun go down over the Pacific was definitely a highlight. The combination of the ocean views, sunsets, and whale watching made the location truly exceptional.Another wonderful surprise was the apple trees on the property. The kids had a great time picking fresh apples and eating them right from the trees. It was such a simple but memorable part of the experience and something the whole family enjoyed.The kids also absolutely loved their room, which was filled with games and gave them plenty to do. The kitchen was exceptionally well stocked with cooking equipment and appliances, with everything we needed to prepare meals comfortably.The house was spacious, comfortable, and very well set up for families. We also enjoyed the pool table and hot tub.The host was responsive and easy to communicate withThe incredible ocean views, whale watching from the deck, beautiful sunset, fresh apple picking, kids' game room, and exceptionally well-equipped kitchen made our experience very memorable. We would definitely come back for a longer stay next time."

"Very good location close to the beach and river. We were able to walk along the beach and kayak in the river, all a short drive from the property. The home had amazing views of the ocean and river as well, and was comfortable and cozy."

10/10 Excellent
"My dog and I stayed for two nights in August 2026. It was an amazing trip, and the house and property are beautiful! We arrived at night and had no problem finding the property, checking in, etc. Check out was just as easy. The house had everything I needed from utensils to a coffee maker and even had a dog bed (my dog is 120lbs and fit perfect). The view is beautiful and the property is close to the town of Gualala along with a couple pet friendly beaches. Overall great experience. I highly recommend and will be coming back in the future."
