Chanticleer

Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

This three-bedroom Mendocino vacation rental, called Chanticleer, is a beautiful artist's retreat. There are two wrap-around decks overlooking the ocean, a vintage cone fireplace, original artwork adorning the walls, and a garden and private viewing deck nestled amongst the wooded glades.

Chanticleer is 45 miles from hiking and picnicking along 45 redwood-coved acres at Admiral Standley State Park Recreation Area. You'll be 41 miles from wine tasting at Elke Vineyards, and 37 miles from B. Ryan Animal Preserve. Russian Gulch State Park and Point Cabrillo are both about a mile away.

The stunning asymmetrical exterior of the home is surrounded by ferns and natural vegetation. Chanticleer has three levels and two separate wrap-around decks providing magnificent views over a wooded glade to a whitewater view of the Pacific Ocean. The upper level offers a bathroom, two guest rooms with queen-sized beds, and an extra sleeping space with a futon that can fold into a double bed. Each room is cozy and inviting with vintage wood paneling, and eccentric collections of artwork, seashells and decor.

The middle level of the home offers floor to ceiling windows in the posh, open-concept living room. Dive into your favorite crossword on the leather loveseat or sit down to a cup of coffee in one of two leather armchairs. An ornate red and blue rug and modern floor lamps tie the room together, while Redwood paneling makes the space feel rustic and charmingly vintage.

A cone fireplace reminiscent of the 1970s and a rack of wood punctuate the living room, inviting guests to curl up with a blanket by the fire. A wrap-around deck just off the living room offers patio chairs, making it the perfect spot for taking in the fresh sea air. When you aren't taking in the views, watch satellite TV, or pop in a DVD or VHS movie at the media center. Just off the living room is a small den with built-in bookshelves and a CD and cassette player.

The dining room is adjacent to the living room. A farm-style dining table and built in bench for six will allow you and your guests to break bread together. Quaint muffin tins and original artwork adorn the dining room shelves, and the fully-stocked kitchen offers a dishwasher, refrigerator, oven, stove, and toaster. This home also features a private washer and dryer for your convenience.

Downstairs is the master suite complete with a private bathroom, queen-sized bed, and private sitting room with a built-in desk, TV and sofa. The master suite also has a romantic private deck for midnight toasts of champagne and star gazing.

The 2,100-square-foot home is on one acre, and has room for seven guests. The outside deck leads to manicured gardens and a viewing deck up a walkway from the house, making it a favorite spot to enjoy the sunsets and watch the woodpeckers. WiFi access means you can stay alert and plugged in! And don't forget to bring your furry friends: There is a small nightly fee if you want to bring dogs.

For a day trip, drive five minutes to Mendocino and visit the Sea Glass Museum, featuring hand-crafted jewelry made from local beach glass. Order a plate of comfort food at Lumberjack's Restaurant, or take the self-guided discovery trail through untouched redwood groves at Hendy Woods State Park.

No matter how you spend your visit, this Mendocino vacation home is the perfect artist's retreat to slow down and get inspired by the beauty of nature, with all the comforts of home.

*Please note that this home's two steep staircases and the stand-alone fireplace are not well-suited for small children. Plan accordingly. Thank you!

Great location for Mendocino county trip
This lovely ocean view property was very close to both Fort Bragg ca and the town of Mendocino. The listing talks about steep stairs to all bedrooms- if you are mobility challenged may not be for you. We left our suitcases down stairs and only used upstairs for sleeping. The whole place gives off a cabin vibe which I loved. If you are looking for something fancy not for you. The art work through out is amazing and was fun to look at—overall good value for the price

Mendocino Holiday
Overall, cabin was nice. Negatives: couches were small, enough for 2 people sitting upright with legs straight in front. Most furnishings looked like they came from a garage sale. Kitchen table at bench on one side necessitated by small space, but uncomfortible for older adults getting in and out. 3 levels. 2 bedrooms very small. Walls were more like thin partitions to create bedrooms. Made it easy to communicate easily with anyone anywhere in the house from any room. TV small and viewable only from 4 seats. Small counter top space. No garbage disposal. Bedroom (tube) TV had built in VCR player. Some people may need to look up what is a VCR player. No smart TV, but had HDMI connection for laptop. Positives: Clean. Excellent location- quiet neighborhood, nice view of ocean from living room and one bedroom. 2 miles from a nice beach. Dog friendly but no yard to play fetch. We probably won't return there, but I can see that it may be good fit for many. Also internet streamed well.

This house was not quite as updated as the pictures show, but that didn’t stop us from enjoying every minute. We all slept very well and had plenty of pillows and blankets. It got warm during the day and cool at night, but opening windows and then using the portable heaters at night made it perfect. We had everything we needed except for a washer , which was broken at the time. I understand a new one is ordered. Thanks for a great stay!!

Broken
We booked this property so we could do laundry midway through our travels. Arrived to find washing machine broken and according to property management it had been broken for some time , ceiling fan - broken, dining room chair- broken leg. Couch-broken, end table broken. We ended up spending most of one of our "sightseeing " days and money in a laundromat watching the drier spin! Beautiful and peaceful setting but poorly managed and maintained. We did not come with unrealistic expectations we just expected basic things to work.

Beautiful, peaceful, house with ocean view
If you are looking for a tranquil, beautiful house with ocean views, this is your place. The house is close to parks, town but still in a quiet location with beautiful ocean views. My wife and me brought the whole family and the house was big enough for all of us. I cannot recommend this house enough. I can hardly wait for my next vacation in Mendocino!

Filthy cabin
When we entered the house it was unswept, cobwebs on the baseboards, the entire house smelt of fish, the dishes all had a greasy film and all the cabinets had crumbs in them. The oven mits were filthy with dried food still on them! The house itself was ok but there was an overall feeling of unwelcomeness.

The biggest frustration was how long it took for Vacasa to get back to us. 5 hours the first time, when we couldn't find how to heat the house and were cold, and 8 hours the second time when we were requesting a later checkout. Other deficiencies included: No wine glasses, no serving bowls Lighting upstairs poor Light at lower level bathroom sink poor lighting No extra blankets upstairs Otherwise the place was adequate.

Great views and wonderful location.
We have stayed here before. This time none of our family members could join us, so we had the house to ourselves. The bottom floor is the newest and nicest. Negatives:The rest of the house is much older, but it has a Mendocino vibe. You can hear every sound on every floor, no matter which level you are on, so if you are staying with family or friends that are not on the same schedule, it is pretty uncomfortable. There are no window coverings downstairs. The kitchen is small and the furniture in the living room is not comfortable to hang out in. Parking in the driveway is difficult if you have a large truck. Positives: There are two large decks and great views from the upper deck. The neighborhood is beautiful and you can walk out to a cliff overlooking the ocean.

This was a great setting with a very nice view of the ocean. Quite easy to get to as well. One thing the owner may not be aware of is that the reserve tank for the water pump is broken so the pump was running almost constantly if one runs water such as flushing a toilet or taking a shower. It is a very quaint house with lots of room and comfortable beds. We had a great time.

Vacasa of California 06/14/2022 Re: Property ID 655394 (06/04/22-06/10/2022) Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The property was quiet and isolated, in a well-tended neighborhood. The interior was comfortable and I enjoyed the many pictures and curios throughout. However, by day two one toilet was plugged up. I found a plunger and fixed it on several occasions. A seat on the dinning table broke when I sat on it. Fortunately, I was not hurt but i noticed that several other chairs were questionable so we set them aside. The small sofas felt weak we limited them to our kids. In addition, the deck door was stuck and difficult to open and or close so accessibility was limited. My wife notified from a maintenance person from Vacasa. I was informed that we would be contacted by the handyman. Mike the handyman did not show up until the day before our departure. He validated our issues and was aware of these issues to be repaired. Rick

A Peaceful Retreat
I have an extremely difficult time doing nice things for myself. Finally decided to book this place at the urging of several friends, and it couldn’t have come at a better time. This place was everything my partner and I needed: beautiful, quiet, and out of reach from the outside world. I only wish we could have stayed longer. Neither of us had phone service and we never wanted to come back, it was perfect. Note: this house is funky. It’s funky in a great way, but just know that it’s not soundproof in the slightest. Any footsteps upstairs can be heard down on the main level, though I’m not sure about the lower level. It’s not far at all from Ft Bragg (and I’m sure Mendocino but we didn’t venture that direction), but know that these coastal towns often close early so plan ahead when it comes to food and beverage needs if you’re getting in a bit late. TLDR: Do yourself a kindness. Refresh your spirit. Book the place. Even if it’s not this one, just do it. I wish a review had told me that, so I’ll pay it forward. Waking up to a view of the ocean and clean air does something for the body that you just can’t get anywhere else.

We had a great weekend stay at Chanticleer. While the pictures do make it look bigger the place was still Perfectly cozy for our family of 5, our doggo, and my sister and her husband. The indoor fireplace is amazing and kept us toasty as it was pretty cold once the sun went down. Speaking of the sun I hope you get clear days as the views are amazing and we had some of the best sunsets during our stay. Our only rant was the pullout bed/couch in the downstairs den. No way anyone could sleep on that.

The house was well supplied with everything we needed. Only complaint is that the windows in the downstairs bedroom had no window coverings so as soon as the sun came up the light coming in would wake you up. Also the bed was super hard, not good if you have a bad back.
