About this house rental
Fall in love with the magic of coastal living at The Sandpiper House. It is a perfect blend of coastal beauty and comfort, making it an idyllic hideaway for your California redwoods getaway. Whether you're seeking a peaceful retreat with stunning ocean views or an opportunity to connect with nature, this vacation rental is the answer. Book your stay and immerse yourself in the serene beauty of Moonstone Beach, where each day begins and ends with the rhythm of the tides. Keep your binoculars ready, as you may spot migrating whales breaching in the distance, seals sunbathing on rocks, and a diverse array of seabirds. This is a paradise for birdwatchers, photographers, and nature enthusiasts. Go explore the unique charm and local treasures of Trinidad, a picturesque coastal village that's just a short drive away. Savor fresh seafood at local restaurants, visit art galleries, and enjoy the tranquil pace of coastal living. If you are traveling with more friends or another family consider also booking Moonstone Beach Retreat located just across the street.
The bedroom offers a plush King size bed with windows that frame the mesmerizing ocean views. Its cabin-like vibe feels super cozy and comfortable with carpet throughout. Stroll down the street for a long walk on one of Trinidad's most popular dog friendly and family beaches. If you enjoy surfing, Moonstone beach is a favorite for beginners and more experienced surfers. The sea stacks are also a haven for rock climbers! After a day at the beach head back up the hill and stop in at Moonstone Grill for a cocktail at one of the only ocean view bars in Humboldt County with delicious, local food. Fall asleep to the soothing sound of ocean waves and waking to the marvel of the ever-changing tide and patterns of Little River meeting the Pacific.
Inside the house, you'll find comfort and simplicity in perfect harmony. The living area features an open layout, complete with a built in work space for travelers needing to work while away and a comfortable seating arrangement that allows you to bask in the magnificent ocean scenery or enjoy watching movies on the 65 inch Smart T.V. Floor-to-ceiling windows provide uninterrupted views of the waves. Plenty of space to sit quietly and do a puzzle while soaking up the views. The small but complete galley style, dine in kitchen has everything you'll need enjoy preparing meals. The bathroom is located down the short hallway to the bedroom and offers a stall shower.
There are two decks to enjoy, an upper one located off of the living room and a lower hidden gem with South facing sunshine it is the perfect spot to start and end your every day! Grill local fresh fish on the barbecue and enjoy dinner al fresco!

Perfect property to spend a few nights in! The house itself was so clean and tidy. We will definitely be returning. Right down the street from the beach and a great restaurant - 10/10 would recommend to anybody and everybody!

Our stay at the Sandpiper was almost like being at home: a very comfortable bed, everything we needed in the kitchen, comfortable furniture and a lovely view. The decor was fun and also reminded me of my own kitchen. Opening the door to the sound of the waves on the beach was soothing and musical. Altogether a very pleasant experience.

6 / 10Average·Oct 2024
The property was clean.
The kitchen was well equipped.
The house is very, very old and needs to be updated : the house smelled damp, which is understandable, considering it has not been updated in 30 years or so, and the newer windows and doors available would reduce that significantly. It definitely feels like walking into a time capsule.
Getting to the place at night is a bit tough, because the GPS picks up the house right below it on the hill, and since the street name signs are difficult to read at night it adds to the adventure I guess.
The fire place had a sign saying: Do not use.
The bedroom heater had a sign : out of order.
The bathroom had one of those fancy toilets with the built in bidet, but the remote control that runs it was not available.
The shower sliding doors came off their track every time the door was used.
The fan in the bathroom was just noise, no air movement at all.
There was no hot tub, even though the contract had a huge section dedicated to tub risk and care, so that was disappointing, but my mistake for not paying attention to fine print (tub, if available).
