We rented the Rose cabin. It was a comfortable, old-fashioned cabin that met our needs. A small bottle of Chardonnay was provided which was a nice touch. I liked the wood floor in the cabin. A number of windows were oriented to view West towards the ocean. I would stay there again.

This new offering is a gem. So cute, so quiet, and the check in experience was both easily contactless, but also attentive when we arrived. There was a small bottle of wine and two glasses in the room. <3 Headed to Mendocino's GoodLife Cafe for breakfast the next day, do not miss it.
