Amazing Property!

My family and I absolutely loved this property with all of its beauty and gorgeous scenery! The home itself is awesome, very clean, very well decorated/designed, and what we loved was the coziness it provided. Everything we could think of was provided by the host, and when a couple of evenings were chilly, firewood was there for us to use in the exquisite fireplace. The beach is a few minutes away, and Mendocino is just a short drive away, so excellent location! We would love to return again and hope to! This was one of the best homes we’ve been to hands down!

A Splendid Place to Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: As always, Navarro Mist was immaculate with attention to every detail, including special touches like gift bow shaped bath towels, a small Irish Whiskey offering with chocolates, fresh flowers, and ample oak wood to burn. Stunning forest and ocean views. The one improvement would be a place to hang one's clothes in the second bedroom. Be aware, there are steps up to the home and no grab bars in the baths.

The special personally written welcome, the sip of cognac, fresh flowers, and bottle of wine were a very pleasant surprise, making us feel especially welcome. Adding a DVD player would be nice.

Therapeutic Reset

The property with its serene view of the forest and the ocean was a much needed 'reset' for two hard-working Stanford Health Care nurses. This home was accurately represented on VBRO and the decor reflected both the past and present. The minor issues we had was that one of the faucets in the master bathroom came off and the porch light on the patio near the outdoor table did not come on. Both were reported upon departure. Would I stay at this property again?? You betcha!!!!

Loved this house

We were 2 couples so we did not use the downstairs bedroom. We used the bedrooms on the main floor and they were great. The house was very clean and very comfortable. The bedding is first class and there were plenty of towels. The kitchen is has everything that you need - - microwave, coffee pot, toaster, etc. The living room is spacious and has a wood burning fireplace. When we arrived one of the sink drains was not working. We did not get to the house until 4:30 and by the time we contacted the rental agent she was not able to get anyone to fix it that night. But, the repairman came the next morning and we were given a bottle of champagne for our inconvenience. Can't ask more than that! I highly recommend this rental.

Great week on the Mendo coast

Thoroughly enjoyed our week in this lovely home high above the Pacific. It is spacious, immaculately maintained, super clean and well equipped, and the surrounding area is rich in beautiful, and delicious, places to visit. Recommend hitting Elk Store for some great sandwiches and snacks! The deck is awesome for hours of gazing at the incredible view - there's even a telescope to check out passing boats or maybe a whale or two. There are games and puzzles if the weather goes bad, and plenty of space for a family of four to spread out. Deer come through the yard occasionally. A couple minor things that guests should know - washer-dryer is provided but not detergent; Also, not that this bothered us, but the house is situated directly above Highway 1, so you do hear cars going by with some regularity in between the distant crashing waves from far below. All in all, well recommended as a supremely comfortable base from which to explore one of the world's great coastlines. We'd happily return!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a party of 6 adults for three nights and Navarro Mist had plenty of room for us all! The entire home was tidy, clean, and even had special touches like towels folded like swans. This is something I’ve seen in other countries and on cruises, but not here in the US. The views were amazing. The location was great as the area was very quiet and peaceful. We will definitely stay here again!

Private and Beautiful

Navarro Mist is well described online and we encountered no surprises. The location is private, has an awesome view (when the fog rolls out), and is a short drive to Elk, Albion, and Mendocino. We found excellent restaurants in all three of those towns. We enjoyed the wood burning fireplace as the "mist" was present most of our stay. The staff of Mendocino Preferred Properties was easy and pleasant to communicate with. The check-in/check-out process was seamless. The decor and furnishings are elegant and understated. I would highly recommend Navarro Mist for a memorable vacation.

Navarro Mist is Magical!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed our 5 night stay at Navarro Mist more than words can express! The home is beautifully and comfortably appointed and incredibly well stocked with anything you could want for cooking (even a crockpot!). Such a stunning and private setting. Mornings on the deck with coffee and evenings with wine for the sunsets were amazing! Sleeping (in VERY comfortable beds) with the windows open and listening to the waves crash was fabulous! Such a great location, just off of Hwy 1 gave us the opportunity to do wine tasting in Anderson Valley, hike in the redwoods at Hendy Woods State Park, visit Mendocino, explore Navarro Beach, drive the coast to Point Arena Lighthouse, play frisbee golf at Anderson Valley Brewing Company, and enjoy cozy nights around the fireplace.
