GREAT artwork throughout the house, an extremely well-stocked kitchen, and the joy of star gazing from the hot tub. We're grateful that the hot tub was already running and ready for us upon arrival! The grounds were lovely. The night lighting was soft and not distracting. The location - access to coastal walks, creek exploration, and our new favorite place: Eureka Natural Foods in McKinleyville - was ideal. Easy access to Highway 101 from the house. AND the neighborhood was quiet.

Trinidad sells itself but our stay was elevated by the easy access, incredible views and near private beach access. Old but clean beach cottage vibes. I’ll be back.

Incredible views. Loved the wood stove. Hot tub with the view and sound of the ocean. Redwoods right on the property. It was very comfortable. Great beds
