We loved everything about our stay. The cabin is located on a ridge that overlooks the Navarro River and the ocean. The views are spectacular from the deck and hot tub, as well as the bedroom and living spaces. It was delightful watching the turkey vultures, ravens and hawks soar right by the deck, and we were lucky enough to spot two bald eagles from Navarro Beach. The bed is very comfortable, and the water pressure in the shower is powerful; perfect for a good night’s sleep. The kitchen is small but well appointed. We will definitely return for another visit.

We had a lovely time unplugging for a week for our anniversary. The bed is as comfortable as ours at home, the stars at night are incredible, fireplace was a nice touch. Highly recommend.

The cottage was beautiful, well equipped and has an amazing view. It is small, 2 people fit comfortably. Some small complaints that really weren’t an issue for Us as we only spent 4 days. The futon couch was uncomfortable to sit on, especially for 2 people. The outside table was pretty well done in, as is to be expected for outside furniture on the Coast. And if you like to watch movies at night you may want to bring some favorite DVD’s. There are many to choose from but they are pretty old and the TV has minimal channels. Lots of books are available though!
