Beautiful inside and out. Would definitely stay again.

It was absolutely perfect! My husband and I stayed for a wedding at the county park. The groom ended up staying on the sofa after rehearsal night since we were located so much closer than everyone else! No touch was skimped on, the cottage was full of quality updates and I think I counted 10 places to sit in the quaint backyard alone. I also sat on the porch and none of the seating was covered in any kind of falling shrubs or bug remains. So clean! Also incredibly well stocked. I would only suggest adding conditioner, but maybe I just couldn't find it because everything else under the sun was available :-) Extremely close to town as well, and a few delivery options.

The house has a very well stocked kitchen with a huge variety of baking and cooking pots, pans, pie plates, blender, crockpot and even an immersion blender. We didn’t use much of them, but I was impressed that they were offered. Lots of nice towels and linens. The house had a wonderful front porch and nice backyard with a big barbecue and a fire pit.
We were very comfortable there. Check in and out was very easy.
The location was convenient for hiking in the redwoods.
Only a few negatives. The road is very busy which makes walking into town challenging. Also the steps to get into the backyard were tricky if you were unaware of them.
