Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is a perfect home for a family getaway. We had a sibling reunion here; the house slept all 7 of us comfortably. The kitchen is very well equipped; the dining area was our favorite place to share meals and play games. The house is very close to both Mendocino and Fort Bragg, and the location is beautiful. We saw deer everyday, and it's only a short walk to the Pt. Cabrillo lighthouse.

Great place to stay in Mendocino!

The pictures that you see on vrbo I thought of the inside made the house look kinda dark and run down. But it’s not it was so bright and clean and great ocean view. This place will not disappoint you . Oh and plenty of pots and pans and utensils for cooking. We had a great time !

The bedrooms were comfy with beautiful views from every room. The backyard was nicely enclosed so the pooch could be safe and secured. The kitchen was sufficiently equipped. We will be returning soon to stay!

Caspar Bluffs & Beach Paradise

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a beautiful home on the bluffs of Caspar. Upon arrival there was a nice birthday wish for my wife in the form of scotch and more important to her was a box of bowls, toys and bags for our puppy which was even more important to her. The home has ocean views from all rooms with a very nice wood burning stove in the family room. There were only two of us but I would say the house sleeps 6 comfortably and maybe up to 8 max. The only downer was we were going to get in the hot tub on the last day and there was no way to turn the jets on so we skipped it. Maybe user error but the location in Caspar South right between Mendocino and Ft Bragg was perfect. Introduced our 6 month old pup to deer and many birds. Neighbors were super cool and makes me want to buy a place there.

Wet winter weekend

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The cb property was as described on line, excellent location and quiet neighborhood. Very cozy downstairs with open floor plan. Unfortunately none of the upstairs heating units worked so we were quite cold the first night until the heat from downstairs eventually made its way to the second floor. DVD player was missing controls. I would rent again if I could be reassured the upstairs heating units worked.

Perfect!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent a weekend at this property with our friends for a birthday get together. The house sits on the ocean cliffs of South Caspar community. Quiet location, wildlife right outside the window, beautiful views of the ocean from all rooms, close to the lighthouse, multiple outdoor sitting areas. The garden is relaxing. Same with the hot tub on the patio. Spacious interiors, very clean, beautiful furnishing and decoration of the rooms. The kitchen is well equipped with all you need and more. There were small personal touches - flowers, liquor, a happy birthday note - that welcomed us into the house. We had a wonderful, unforgettable time and would return for a longer weekend in the future. It was a perfect stay! Better than expected and better than pictured.

Quarter mile away from Caspar Beach, 8 minutes away from main street Mendocino. Pet friendly + hot tub and a deck on the second floor were massive cherries on the top.

Wonderful location and set up

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Having stayed at dozens of rentals in the area, this has been in the top few. From pictures you can tell that it's going to be a nice spot, and that is all true. I felt the rental company went above and beyond to ensure that the house was clean and had sweet little touches added in too (fresh flowers, dog treat, folded towels). All of this was noticed and made us feel very welcome! I will prioritize staying with this company again.

Really nice... but could be nicer?

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed this rental. The master bedroom is huge compared to the other 3. A factor of at least 2. Took a day to learn all of the light switches... lots of them and not always obvious where some lights were being controlled.And could use some serious minor mtx... one of the upstairs decks was in pretty bad shape and we never were able to lock the doors other than the front one. Not a worry really but seemed kind of odd.The one thing really needed however is a refrigerator upgrade. The only place I've rented without an ice maker. At the very least the housekeepers should have filled the ice cube trays. Upon arrival, we had no ice until the second day!The other odd thing; if all the bedrooms were occupied (as was our case, minus 1) you have 8 people... but everything seems designed for 6. Only 6 places at dining table, 6 glass cups, 6 plates, 6 seats in TV room, etc. We were constantly moving chairs from one room to another.

Great house for comfortable ocean viewing!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Clean, nothing falling apart, everything we needed. I have been in more updated rentals in this neighborhood, but the views can’t be beat! We even saw whales while sitting on the porch. I loved that every room had an opening window or door and would see the ocean. Would ask that the property managers do some yard work as the lawn sitting area was completely over grown and we could not enjoy it, but you can’t see the ocean from there anyways so with our size group we just sat on the decks and enjoyed the waves and seals barking.

Great layout and all the appliances were operable albeit tired. The master bed & bath was a highlight.The window coverings on the upper floor were inadequate, floor rugs old and frayed (master bed), kitchen pots and pans could do with an audit.

Get Away Vacay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: There was 6 of us staying at Sea Garden. The house was in a nice neighborhood but the inside was outdated. The rooms upstairs were very small the size of a walk-in closet. There is a fenced in backyard which is nice for our dogs. I think they should update everything inside the house because it was very expensive to stay there. The refrigerator was small and no where to store all the food we brought.

Amazing!!!

The specific details upon entering the home to congratulate us on a 15 year anniversary were great. So sweet. View was amazing! Cleanliness was amazing! Staff was great! The only thing that was old school was that you have to drive to a separate location to pick up the keys and drop them off. But it’s fine. We will definitely be back!

Snow at Sea Garden

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We visited during "ski week" 2023 and were not expecting the cold weather to follow us there. The house was great, wood stove kept it warm when the power was out for a bit, and the large dining area and living room meant everyone could spread out and relax together but not too close (teenagers..sigh...). Hot tub was great contrast to the cold and rainy wether and got a lot of use. Kitchen was great and well stocked. This was our second time with Mendocino Preferred and won't be our last!

Great house In wonderful location

Loved the house — fantastic primary suite with view of the coastline and ocean. The other 3 bedrooms are pretty small, especially for three couples. But everything was super comfortable. The kitchen and great room was spacious and well laid out. Fun for hanging out. Nice to have a hot tub as well. My only true complaint is the antiquated check in process. I’m now used to the typical simplicity of other house rental check ins. Having to deal with a in-town rental office (circa 1998) was annoying but not a deal killer. I’d definitely stay there again!

Fantastic Family Vacation!

We had a wonderful time staying at Sea Garden! Working with the property management was easy and convenient - all the staff we interacted with were friendly and helpful. The location of the property was amazing - beautiful views and a short walk to the beach. The house itself was perfect. Amazing windows and views of the ocean from every room. Very clean and had everything we needed for our holiday. There were some very sweet touches for us when we arrived including candies and some brandy! Also great amenities for the dog, including towels (it was rainy while we were there), bowls, dog bags, treats, and a toy! Thank you for sharing your home with us. We had a wonderful holiday!
