Pros:

Good space for a family of 5 and nice to have a full kitchen and refrigerator. Convenient to hiking in redwoods.

Cons:

I was mistaken and thought the proximity to water meant there was more of a view and access to the water. There is a partial view obscured by trees and no close access to the water. My kids were so upset that we could hear the sea lions all night but could not see them. (They were so loud we couldn't sleep with windows open)

Family Adventure with hiking
Pros:

It was quiet and very comfortable. The back porch was lovely and an added bonus. Thought the location was good.. We've been hiking the redwoods and heading back south , so this was a great transition back . Close to the state parks on the beach to get walks in and watch the sunset!

Cons:

Cozy and secluded!
Pros:

It was very clean both inside and out. It was very easy to park as well. The rooms had everything you would need (utensils, large fridge, kitchen sink, coffee maker, and microwave). The sofa was also a big plus when watching TV in the living room area.

Great. Booked again for our return trip.
Pros:

The place was out of the way and very cozy. The cottage had everything we needed and the beds were perfect for us. Loved the deck and the large grass area that was perfect for watching the sunset. The entire grounds were very clean and welcoming. And the staff was very friendly.

Schöne Tage in der Lodge verbracht
Pros:

Leider ist kein Supermarkt in der Nähe und man hat keinen Zugang zu einem Strand.

Pros:

Clean, quiet, separate cabins. The friendly and helpful staff recommended Lighthouse Grill, which was AMAZING. The location was close to hiking trails and Agate Beach. This was another hotel that offered 5 different pillows of differing softnesses; as someone with neck problems, this is my new favorite thing.

Cons:

It was all fabulous.

Pros:

. Very worth the price and the location. We loved hearing the seals! It was very entertaining and hilarious. Thank you for an unforgettable stay.

Cons:

A small lamp in the living and kitchen area would be nice. The lights were a little bright at night but, still would recommend to friends and family
