This host and cottage was the best VRBO experience that we have had to date. Everything was just perfect. The kitchen was completely stocked with condiments, including a few fresh eggs, butter and a nice bottle of wine. The host was very responsive when we had questions. The porch and grounds outside were beautiful and relaxing and everything inside the cottage was perfect too.I can highly recommend this cottage to anyone staying in the area.

This was a perfect weekend getaway! We loved meeting the horses and goats, walking around the vineyards, and relaxing in the hot tub. The kitchen was well-stocked and the unit was very clean and cozy. We had a memorable & lovely time, and we highly recommend this spot to others!

Somewhat disappointed with house. The pictures showed it nicer than it was. The outdoor furniture was dirty & worn out. The hot tub was directly in front of the occupied adjoining houses windows. Wasn’t appealing to use it. Having a hot tub does not allow you to claim it as a spa. We had trouble getting in the gate. We pushed the speaker a few times trying to call property mgr & never got an answer. Had to call VRBO support to get in the gate. We had zero contact with PM. Our last morning there was hot water for only one shower.

Not enough superlatives to properly describe how beautiful and relaxing this property was to enjoy. Jerry the host and I became fast friends and I would love to return or recommend staying here to any family and friends

This was one of our favorite rentals of all time. It has everything you could want or need. Pool, hot tub, farm animals, pond for fishing, stocked kitchen full of necessities and extras. It was so fabulous and the views all along the property are spectacular. The hosts, Melinda and Jerry, were so helpful and kind and even let our 11 year old son participate in the feeding time for the goats and mules. He let us take the golf cart as well to explore the property and we headed down to the pond for some catch and release fishing. This place is an 11/10 and do not hesitate to book this place, especially if you have children. Lots to explore and there is much to do as far as hiking, lakes, and good food. We will definitely be coming back.

What an absolutely unique and charming property! W everything was just perfect, comfy and pampering. The hot tub, the pool, the bed, the kitty cats. The view was spectacular and the stars at night.... Unreal. It is accessible to Sonoma and Russian River and we just had a wonderful time. Thank you Melinda and Jerry, Mickey and Vinne

We celebrated my husband's birthday by staying here and taking day trips to Mendocino and various redwood groves. The cottage is so special--the photos can't even capture how lovely it is. From the cobblestoned entrance and patio to the very pretty bedroom/comfy bed and fully (I mean FULLY) outfitted kitchen, all was perfect. Melinda and Jerry gave us complete privacy but were available around the clock for our silly questions about dining, where to go for runs, how to work the AC, etc. The only thing to note is that there is an adjoining rental that shares the hot tub and patio off the bedroom, so worth asking if you want complete privacy. Bonus #1: saw the Starlink night show on our last evening, which was creepy but also pretty spectacular! Bonus #2: Miss Pickles. Thank you Melinda and Jerry for a magical visit and birthday celebration!

This was such a nice place to stay. We were there for a week and had everything we needed. The bed was nice and fluffy and the jaccuzi was nice and hot! Loved watching the duck family.

After traveling throughout California my wife and I found this property the most relaxing. Overlooking a lake on one side and vineyard on the other we found the location felt like we were at a 5 star resort. The landscaping was professionally finished and peaceful with running water throughout. The hot tub overlooking the lake was very tranquil. There was kayaks for use on lake but it was a little cool in April. An outside grill and fully stocked kitchen gave us option to cook our meals and enjoy in relaxing setting outside or in. The bed was comfortable with heating pad on mattress. The host was very responsive to any question we had. Thanks Melinda and Jerry for sharing your property with us.

I had a wonderful stay at this property! The property is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and a truly majestic feel. Melinda is a fantastic host—so thoughtful and communicative—and Jerry is incredibly kind. The grounds are perfect for a peaceful stroll, and having a market nearby made everything so convenient. The unit itself is well-equipped with all the essentials, and I especially loved the large TV in the living room and the super comfortable bed. I highly recommend this place and we will surely be back to stay again!

My partner and I loved this place! Came here just for the weekend and wished we could stay longer. The property is beautiful and unique, and it was a treat to see all the animals and friendly dog. Kitchen and bathroom were well stocked, and the bed was very comfortable. Nice getaway!

What a beautiful property! We loved waking up, making a cup of coffee in the keurig (coffee provided by the hosts), and walking outside to watch the birds. During the hot days, we loved taking a dip in the pool. And at night, we relaxed in the hot tub looking up at the stars!
We will definitely be returning!

This is our third (or fourth) time staying at Melinda's property. This is our GO TO spot when visiting family in Mendocino County. Melinda offers a very clean, comfortable place to stay and allows our kitty cat to stay with us which is huge. Thank you Melinda for always being consistent with what you offer. We love it!!

We stayed at Redwood Valley at the end of a three week trip around California and it couldn't have been more perfect for a relaxing break. The property has everything you need and is close to some amazing scenery. Whether you want to have an active outdoor holiday or just chill and relax- you can easily do both here. The pool was great for cooling down in the afternoon and the hot tub for relaxing late at night to look at the stars. The kitchen is well kitted out for home cooking to go along with that craft beer or local wine you've bought. We came all the way from Ireland and couldn't have found a more perfect place to stay. Thank you Jerry and Melinda.

My wife and I stayed at Melinda's cottage for four nights while I had business nearby in Ukiah. It was a comfortable, well-appointed residence that provided a nurturing time away. Melinda was helpful and responsive as needed but otherwise not to be seen. She kindly mailed several clothing items to us that we left in the cottage.

From the first time I saw the listing I knew it would be great. We arrived to a welcome gift of a bottle of wine, and locally grown eggs, and Melinda even brought over homemade zucchini muffins one day.
We were able to take our granddaughter for walks near the lake, to see the mules & goats, and went swimming in the pool. The Lake Cottage, and the whole property is beautiful, and had everything we needed for our stay.
We will be back!

This was a little oasis in Redwood Valley, so nice we ended up hanging out here more than we anticipated. Very clean and classy, the complimentary bottle of wine was a fantastic touch! The pool was so fun and the hot tub with morning coffee was a great way to start out days. The kids loved petting the goats and horses. Thanks Melinda!

I had the most incredible stay at this property that I simply cannot stop raving about. From start to finish, it was an unforgettable experience that surpassed all my expectations. I cannot recommend it enough!
First and foremost, the property itself was absolutely stunning. It was evident that the owners had poured their heart and soul into creating this serene and inviting experience. As soon as I walked through the door, I was greeted by a sense of warmth and elegance. The attention to detail was remarkable, with every corner adorned with tasteful decor and thoughtful touches.
The living spaces were spacious and comfortable, providing the perfect environment to relax and unwind. Whether I was lounging on the back patio, enjoying the beautiful views from the kitchen window, or reading by the lake, It was like a dream!
What truly set this property apart, however, was the exceptional host. From the moment I made the reservation, they were incredibly responsive, accommodating, and gracious. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was nothing short of perfection.
The combination of the incredible property, the gracious host, and the meticulous attention to detail created a getaway that I will cherish forever. I left feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and I'm already planning my return. Thank you Melinda and Jerry!

I’ve stayed at a lot of properties over the years, but I have to say this is by far my favorite. The grounds were impeccable and all the animals were a special treat! I enjoyed the hot tub under the stars each night and sometimes during the day! The unit itself is spacious and beautifully appointed from the amazingly cozy heated bed to the well stocked kitchen. Luxurious bath products were provided and plenty of towels and extra blankets for lounging on the sofa. Melinda was an absolute pleasure and was kind enough to leave a scrumptious bottle of wine, chocolates and fresh eggs for the morning! I loved everything about this rental and would definitely book again. Thank you for hosting!
