The Fish House - Midcentury Modern - Walk to Beach
Comfortable home with 1956 charm, but remodeled with all new windows, tile floors and carpet. The kitchen is basic yet functional and still has its original pink and brown tile. Two bedrooms have queen sized beds and the den has a double sized foldout sofa. The third bedroom has a twin sized bed. There are two bathrooms, one with the original yellow tile from 1956 which has been refreshed, and the other has been totally remodeled with a tiled walk-in shower. Set on over four acres, this home has a large yard with deer and birds to view. There is a blue water ocean view from the deck, and the beach is a quick 10 minute walk away. MacKerricher State Park sits between this home and the ocean. This is a great place for families with kids or for couples to share.

Absolutely marvelous stay for a getaway! Immaculate home with a fully equipped kitchen. Fantastic floor design, gorgeous grounds, and an easy walk to the ocean. We cannot wait to go back.
We really enjoyed our month-long stay. Everything worked as it should. The gas fireplace was much appreciated for a little extra on some rainy evenings. Really nice house and lovely yard. Even the wildlife visitors were polite to us.
This was a wonderful house to make our mother daughter road trip so memorable. Wonderful location with views of land that will never be developed and of the ocean that you can hear and see in the distance. House was just as described. Clean and comfortable. The outside yard is perfect for dogs to run around and explore. We are already talking of coming back! Thank you for a wonderful time!
We wish we booked more than 7 nights at the Fish House. In fact, we’d love to buy the place and move in. It is just perfect for a relaxing, comfortable stay where you can enjoy the sight and sounds of the ocean, watch the sun set into the sea, and walk to the beach. This house has everything you’ll need, including plenty of soap, shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The frog serenade at night was so relaxing. Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us. We will be back!
We had a wonderful stay at The Fish House, watching sunset from the back patio and waking up to deer in the yard. It’s a charming and welcoming place to stay while enjoying Fort Bragg. We also appreciated our easy check-in and checkout.
What a wonderful and quiet location! The cool ocean air was perfect. The location of the house was within walking distance of the beach. We had a great time!
Lovely house, great view and location was perfect. Was a quick-ish walk to the beach, easy to get into town, and clean and comfortable. Would stay here again!
Very nice place to stay location is great! Big yard for the dog to play with wonderful views. They keep this place very clean and we would like to stay there again.
The Fish House is the best. Peacefull, quiet, comfortable, very clean and well-maintained, gorgeous well-kept yard set in natural surroundings abutting McKerracher State Park, QUIET neighborhood, great deck with nice deck chairs and expansive views (best place to watch sunsets), easy walks to the beach and Haul Road. The loving care the owners have put into this house over the years is evident in every room. Well stocked kitchen, all appliances working perfectly, modern upgrades like gas fireplace insert and big-screen smart TV, double-pane windows, beautiful and historically interesting interior. And, of course, exceptionally generous and responsive owners.
Fish house is such a sweet and warm house. It’s quiet, beautiful and well appointed. Everything is clearly labeled and well organized! We love being able to walk to the beach.
This was a home not a house. It was so clean, and well stocked for all ages. Just beautiful!! Comfortable beds, beautiful views, private with lots of grass area.
Very comfortable. Easy to be in. Would rent this place again

About the host
Hosted by Marilyn Anderson
My husband and I recently retired to Fort Bragg, my husband's home town. He grew up in this house, and after his mother passed away, we decided to keep it in the family and use it as an extra home for when family visits and also as a vacation rental.
Why they chose this property
This home has been owned by my husband's family since 1959, and we are pretty attached to it and want to honor its history. It is a very comfortable home which holds many wonderful memories.
What makes this property unique
This home has lots of charm with its redwood ceilings, beams and lots of paneling. The setting is quiet and woodsy, but it is still easy to run into Fort Bragg to shop and eat.
