Ranch home w/ hot tub in the Mendocino Redwoods. Pet- & family-friendly.

Our 4.5-acre property is 10 minutes north of Fort Bragg, off of Highway 1, and a mile from the beach — just far enough to escape the marine layer and get a good amount of sunshine. The house is surrounded by redwood trees, rolling meadows and flowering rhododendrons. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, a large wraparound porch, a library/office, a sun room, and a hot tub. This is a beautiful but eclectic old redwood ranch house with a very large, bright solarium at its center.

The space

While the house is technically three bedrooms, "bonus rooms" allow it to fairly comfortably accommodate 3+ families or a group of friends. These include a large office off the master bedroom, separated by a curtain, that has the capacity of one or two twin beds. In the living room, there's a good-sized office, also separated by a curtain, that has a twin day bed that can be converted into a king. The living room has a very comfortable couch, along with an ottoman that converts into a sleeping cot, and an over sized chair that converts into a twin sized bed. We're happy to arrange the house to best fit your party.

Guest access

The property is 4.5 acres and we welcome you to use and enjoy it. Play in the meadow, make a campfire in the fire ring, have a picnic. While doing so, we ask that you respect the plant and animal life (no picking, climbing or hunting, please), the personal space of our neighbors, and our own personal property: there are a few scattered garden sheds, outbuildings and a travel trailer -- all at least 100 feet from the house -- that are not to be used or accessed by guests. There’s plenty of space and we’re very happy to have you. At the same time, one of the joys of being in the country is the natural beauty, quiet, and privacy it provides. We will extend that to you.
