Great Location

We love staying in this comfortable cottage. We come with our kayak group and many of them camp in Mckerricer and this cottage is almost inside the state park. Very close to the beach and a beautiful coastal bike trail. The home is clean and has everything you need for a great vacation stay. We've stayed here multiple times and will be coming back in the future.

Great Get Away

Great location....cottage has just about everything you need. Gas fireplace was delightful. We had a very relaxing stay. The first bedroom mattress was a tad uncomfortable/old but we made due. Being able to hear the ocean, ride bikes or walk to the beach, and get to town in min are a huge plus!!

Awesome Place!

4 of us stayed at the cottage for a weekend and had a great time. The home was perfect for everything we needed, plus you cannot beat the location! You really are a 5 minute walk to the beach. I stayed in the queen size room and that bed was very comfortable and our friends in the larger room said the same. We will definitely try and stay here again.

Perfect Fort Bragg family vacation cottage

Perfect house to stay with the family to relax. The backyard was wonderful too, with firepit and bbq and very close to drive into the town of Fort Bragg for restaurants or shopping. We went to the Sea Pal Cove down at the Harbor .It was fun to sit out on the restaurant's outside dining watching the fishing boats come while we enjoyed lunch. Hope to get back soon!

Inaccurate online listing

The online photos are old. The cottage is very rundown, especially outside. Wood handicap ramp had wrotten wood, gas Bbq was rusted and inoperable, firepit was right next to a large eucalyptus tree so unsafe to light. inside wasn’t as clean as you would want. Walls were dirty, pots and pans old, hair inside bathroom drawer. Advertised washer and dryer which were not on site. We only stayed one night out of 7. Felt it was unsafe and not clean enough.

Nice get-a-way

The cottage was cozy. We had a nice stay and the calla lilies are gorgeous in the back yard. A couple things that could improve the stay would be a new mattress in the spare bedroom, a refrigerator that stays closed or replace the seal on door, clean the mold and caulk above the shower wall. Those are small things. It was a nice relaxing stay. Also the grandkids loved the fire pit for roasting hotdogs and making smore's!
