Spectacular Oceanfront with Ocean, River And Sand Dune Views!

We have a drop dead gorgeous view with a two bedroom bluff side rustic quirky cottage available with ocean, river and sand dune views from every room. Right out your front door there is private stair access to your very own boat house on the Ten Mile River. This river is a nature preserve that can be enjoyed by kayaks or canoe that will take you up river where wild life abounds or to the ocean where the seals, crabs and birds will provide many hours of enjoyment.
Bring your bikes, binoculars, swim suits and a good pair of walking shoes or just a good book!
This gem comes with a deck, small barbeque, comfortable rustic furnishings, flat screen TV with Blu-ray DVD and portable sound system (satellite radio). There is Wi-Fi giving you access to e-mail and the internet. There is a private bedroom with a queen-size bed and a spectacular sleeping alcove with floor to ceiling ocean views containing a second queen-size bed. Of course there is a full bath and fully equipped kitchen.
We call this treasure Seaside Serenity and it is about ten to fifteen minutes from Fort Bragg, close enough to enjoy great food and shopping yet far enough to provide total relaxation. Walk on the beach or through the dunes, be mesmerized by the waves or just lay on the deck with your favorite novel.
Well behaved dogs are welcomed and they are subject to a $100 one time pet fee. There is also a $125 cleaning charge per stay. We require a minimum three night stay for weekends and two nights during the week. If you want something special just ask!

It’s a great location and views. Bonfire was fun, and we walked over the bridge to ten mile beach. My only criticism would be that there were ants everywhere. We were cleaning them off counters, furniture and even in the bed. Bring your own water too. But it was a fun little place to stay in overall!

Absolutely beautiful setting on the river and beyond is the ocean waves. It’s very relaxing both outside on the decks or inside where you have views of the ocean and river. We hope to return.

Loved our second stay here

This was our second time staying at this place and we loved it everything about it. Great location with beautiful views, cool rustic feel of the house, and river/beach access using canoe or kayak. Also, close to town (but not too close). :-) We’ll be back for sure!

Great Getaway

First you can't beat the Northern Cal Pacific Ocean, then the proximity of Fort Bragg with great restaurants and places to walk around, but still not so close that you are pestered. It really is perfectly located. Homey, everything you need.

Relaxing Getaway

We had a fabulous, very relaxing vacation glamping in your cottage! The location couldn't have been more perfect, we loved the kayaks and canoe. Watching the sunset every night and sleeping in the alcove was amazing. Overall excellent long weekend spending time with friends!
