There were nearby walking trails with river views, and easy access to the ocean and the town of Mendocino. This is a well kept old home with lots of unique features. It was well stocked, immaculate, and the beds were comfy. The downstairs bedroom with easy bathroom access worked well for my husband and me. The younger folks used the upstairs rooms. Loved the piano. The floor plan and decor felt homey. A lovely stay! ##### Sus M. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024
