About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The ocean meets the meadow at the forest's edge. Private beach. Soak under stars

A fully equipped, recently built (2003) beach home with two comfy bedrooms with yummy queen beds, a great room, a private deck outside the kitchen, and a cozy, romantic rooftop living room or a back yard jacuzzi with ocean views and starry, starry nights. Our beach house and decks are protected from the strong winds that buffet the bluffside. Take a walk down the nature path or the road past Pomo Lake to the private, gated beach for five miles of sandy coast, dramatic rocks, and lively tidepools to explore. Or just cross the road and enjoy the thick Mendocino forest. Our home is two fully independent duplexes. Sarah and I have the smaller one bedroom south side, but we are rarely in residence. If by chance we are there during your visit, we are especially quiet and considerate.

Great place, very convenient
I loved the house. The only comment I would make and it is not a negative, just to let people be aware. The only bathroom is up about 5 stairs next to the kitchen and if you using the bathroom during the night, be aware that you need to navigate walking into the next room and walking up some stairs. But, the place if great and is very welcoming!

This was the perfect weeklong getaway for me and my dogs. It's beautiful, quiet, and very peaceful. I like to leave town the week of the 4th in order to be able to sleep. We have too many people setting off fire crackers all week long. I came home feeling quite refreshed.

Beautiful Place, Beautiful Weather, 10/10.
My wife and I took my midwestern parents up to this rental for a couple of days and, man, did it really impress us! We loved how clean and cozy the place was and enjoyed our downtime relaxing in the living room by the fire and up on the rooftop lounging area, enjoying the heaters and the view. The really close proximity to Irish Beach made this all-the-better - the semi-private beach was windy while we were out there, but it was GORGEOUS and my entire family had a great time watching the waves crash into each the cliffs and each other. We REALLY enjoyed our stay and will definitely be a repeat customer the next time we’re wanting to stay in the area.

Lovely relaxing getaway
The light in this property is beautiful as it shines in in mornings! Very relaxing way to wake up! Nook is great spot to curl up with a book. Hot tub is also a plus. Wonderful location to unplug and relax with 2 people ot 2 couples and dogs. Agree cooking and fridge space limited so ne prepared for that and 'green egg bbq' with hickory wood chips (very easy to us) makes wonder meats and veggies

A Pleasant Stay
My dog Jack and I enjoyed our stay in this Irish Beach vacation home, one of our favorite parts of Northern California to visit and explore. The home was very clean and nicely appointed and I found the bed quite comfortable. Cooking enthusiasts may find this home somewhat limiting as the refrigerator & freezer space is small and the hot plate, countertop oven/air fryer & outdoor grill present obstacles if you plan to cook for a large group but were entirely adequate to my needs. Vacationers with mobility issues should be aware the house is on a hill and does require negotiating two short flights of stairs for the main entrance, a split flight of stairs for the garage entrance, and access to the bathroom also requires a short flight of stairs. My dog enjoyed the beach access and visiting the remarkably handsome dog that lived in the full length mirror in the walk in closet. We enjoyed our time here and would rent this home again.

Sweet and Relaxing
This place has a good vibe and I would go back again. Check-in process was easy. Beds are comfy and there's a deck off the dining room that over looks the backyard and hot tub. The fridge is small but it wasn't a problem and there's no stove top but also not a problem because what you need to cook is provided (air fryer, double hot plate). We didn't miss anything and we both like to cook. If you like to grind your beans for coffee, bring your coffee grinder. It's also nice that there's a garage to put your car in and enter through garage if you want to. We had the place (it's a duplex) to ourselves except for one night and that was nice to have the privacy, especially for morning/evening hot tub soaks and talking on the deck. We met the property owner the next morning and enjoyed our conversation and hanging out for a bit. Jess was kindly responsive to any questions I had.

Fantastic Relaxing Getaway
The host was welcoming and went out of his way to make us feel at home. We loved the open floor plan and comfort of the place. The rooftop lounge area was a great spot to relax and enjoy the incredible view. We enjoyed walking around the nearby lake in the morning and took advantage of the Irish Beach access that was a super short drive away every afternoon/evening. It's one of our favorite beaches we've been too. We would 100% come back to this house on vacation again.

Beautiful place for getaway
As soon as I entered the front door, I was absolutely delighted! The place was sparkling clean, the interior was warm and inviting. It had the look and feel of a place that was designed with love. The attention to detail was exceptional, from the plush bath linens to the perfect variety of spices in the kitchen to the beautiful tile work and the wooden blinds. We brought our two dogs with us. They are Chihuahuas and are usually pretty boisterous but they seemed to feel the relaxing vibe. I didn’t hear one tiny bark the whole time. We all loved our little getaway. I can see us returning for a longer stay,

Nice, inexpensive rental near the coast
Two bedrooms, basic kitchen, great rooftop deck. My partner has some physical limitations and the small bathroom located up a flight of stairs was difficult for him to use comfortably. Otherwise, a nice escape on the Mendocino coast.
