This is probably our favorite rental we have ever stayed in! Clean, comfortable, well stocked, and super fun style/decor. We felt right at home. Great central location and so close to everything we wanted to do! We loved everything about it!

House in the Redwoods
The house and location were great for the Redwoods. The little town of Orick is very small and doesn't offer much (restaurants or groceries) but it also give seclusion which was very nice. And you can see the coast from the back porch of the house which was amazing. Would definitely stay there again.

Perfect outpost to explore Redwood National and State Parks
Our family stayed at this property and found it as a perfect spot to explore the Redwood National and State Parks. It is within 30 minutes driving of all the important trails and 10 minutes to the beach. It is hard to find something so perfectly located. The property is very nice, with incredible views of the forest and even a glimpse of the ocean. It is equipped with all the necessary amenities. We felt just as at home. We strongly recommend this property. If we will be in the area again, we surely will try to stay there.

The town of Orick is a very old town but can’t beat the location to the redwoods. Plan on stopping at a larger town for food before getting to Orick. We cooked each night at the house. The house was amazing with a large kitchen and family room. Plenty of room for all to hang out without being on top of each other. The views are outstanding. We will definitely stay here again.

Felt privileged to even stay here! The views, the vibe, the RECORD player! Super clean everywhere and plenty of comfy places all Well decorated. It was like staying at a high class spa. We chilled, cooked, read, and visited the Redwoods and beach which were literally in the backyard. And the views from wraparound decks??? BEYOND STUNNING. Slept great. Hummingbirds visit and birds can be heard. So peaceful. This place is the best we have EVER stayed.

Billed as a “retro” property with almost all 5/5 ratings I expected an amazing place with an amazing view (and “splurged” the extra cost thinking this place would be a great end to a vacation at lesser lodgings) but it was just old (70’s) with an odd old lady smell, and although clean, it was just an old clean home to stay in. It was expensive (~$400/night) and not worth that. The Wi-Fi (billed as excellent) would not support our Firestick) although you could use your phone online. The view (billed as ocean view) was a small space between the bushes where you could get a glimpse of the pacific on the edge of the deck, and that wasn’t great. The bed seemed lumpy and needing replacement in the master room. The worst was that our host texted us the evening of arrival that our power would go out the next morning from 8-4 the following day (and we had items in the fridge and freezer) for our planned second day there. Thankfully they refunded us promptly at our request the following day plus 1/2 the cleaning fee and that was reasonable and made things right. Vacasa, the host company was very responsive and very helpful; they were great! Overall, it was much less than expected and less value than expected. This would be a fine place for someone with a large group to use primarily as a staging place for hiking in the area but not for someone (like us) to spend a nice time enjoying the place, down time, views and some quiet tv time in the evenings binging on your shows.

Delightful Retreat
My wife and I had a wonderful time at this cheerful home. We always find it make such a difference to stay in a house that was/is someone's actual home. We loved the decor, the views and how happy this house was during our 5 day stay. It is a perfect location for exploring the Redwood parks as well as nearby tide pools. We would definitely stay here again!

Terrific Views
One floor ranch home situated on the top of a steep hill overlooking the Orick valley and forests. Smaller view of the ocean and a lovely wrap around deck to optimize views. Home style and decor is reminiscent of the Brady Bunch era with a few modernized amenities. Plenty of parking space and well appointed with dishes, utensils and other kitchen ware. Clean, no management issues and were emailed an access code in advance of our stay. They were unable to accommodate a 2 hour late checkout request, citing Covid cleaning times. Additionally, we planned to grill steaks, but the propane grill was out of propane. The town of Orick appears to be the town forgotten. Very little in terms of conveniences with one single gas pump. The main area is made up of closed stores, long forgotten and boarded up. Do not wait until you arrive in Orick to pick up food or groceries, there are 2 small convenience stores and not much else. A bar of cream cheese was $5 to give you an idea. Bring your groceries with you! That said, the views are beautiful and it’s the perfect location for quick access to the Redwood National Forest and elk viewing. I would recommend the owners provide additional basic necessities given the limited access to them in town. We ran out of toilet paper on Day 2. Bring your own! I would recommend this home, lovely proximity to the Redwoods and well-maintained.
