OCEANFRONT, BEACH & Coastline Views, Large Home, Lots of Windows, Amenities

LOCATION! BAY DREAM is a dramatic oceanfront home with whitewater views of the Pacific Ocean, Caspar Cove, headlands and Caspar Beach located just a few minutes drive north of MENDOCINO VILLAGE.
YOUR MEMORABLE VACATION STARTS IN A MEMORABLE VACATION HOME! Bay Dream is the ultimate home for the total coastal experience. This contemporary home is light, and bright with lots of huge windows to appreciate the ever changing ocean. From BAY DREAM you can walk the trails along the headlands and down to the tide pools, or take a short stroll down to CASPAR BEACH (a 1/2 mile WALK or a 2 minute DRIVE to the SAND ), great for surfing and kayaking. You can rent kayaks and paddle boards at Caspar Beach. You can watch the WHALES migrating, and the SEA LIONS sun themselves from this exclusive peninsula, GATED on a private road where only a handful of homes have been allowed. Free HIGH SPEED INTERNET and great CELL SERVICE for Verizon users and good cell service for most other users.
THE BACK YARD HAS A FENCE BUT CHILDREN SHOULD BE CLOSELY SUPERVISED WHEN OUTSIDE, AS HOUSE IS NEAR THE BLUFF.
With its 5 BEDROOMS (rare for an OCEANFRONT vacation rental) and 2.5+ baths, 6 PERSON upper deck HOT TUB, LARGE, FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN area with abundant seating and all the amenities, BAY DREAM is the ultimate home for larger families or for special friends to experience a Mendocino DREAM Vacation!

This open concept, MULTI-LEVEL home with its HUGE windows, decks and large HOT TUB provide endlessly-changing views of breaking waves, A BLOW-HOLE, fishing boats, kayaks, windsurfers, surfers, sunsets, and abundant wildlife! The incredible wildlife entertainment include whales, sea lions, osprey, pelicans, and gulls swimming and soaring up close and personal!
From the LARGE OPEN KITCHEN area you can VIEW the OCEAN with fishing boats, the BAY with kayaks and abalone-divers, and the BEACH with its surfers and paddle boarders; quite an entertaining panorama.
There are BOOGIE BOARDS at the house or rent kayaks, surfboards, etc. at Caspar Beach. A wetsuit is recommended!
For more entertainment on the MAIN FLOOR you have a 58" SMART TV with DVD's, DVR , sound bar, all Direct TV Premium Channels, XBOX ONE, a 3 CD Sony Stereo with MP3 capability, a large portable "ION" speaker/radio/blue tooth system and of course, free HIGH SPEED WIRELESS INTERNET up to 8 devices.

Beautiful views from almost every window, hot tub overlooking the ocean was perfect temperature, and the house had every item (and then some) we needed in the kitchen for making dinner. Game room had a wide variety of games and puzzles. Our stay was relaxing and easy with clear instructions on everything we needed to use. The two deer eating grass on our last morning was the perfect ending to our stay.

Family Vacation/Graduation Gift

Our oldest granddaughter graduated from high school. This was her wish list to stay on the beach. We turned it into a family get-together. Bay Dream is a fantastic place. The location is excellent, and the house was stocked with everything. We played board games, enjoyed hikes, ate lunch out, and watched the sunset almost every evening. Debra was a great host and provided well-written instructions. Look forward to staying there again in the future.

Bay Dreams was even better than we had expected. We had incredible ocean views as well as some charming local visitors. The deer came by frequently and we even got to watch two baby deer frolicking in the backyard.we thoroughly enjoyed sitting on the deck listening to the waves crash against the cliffs. We were also entertained by barking sea lions and surfers near the beach below. Bay Dreams is also conveniently located between Fort Bragg and Mendocino. The beds were comfortable, the house was super clean and the layout was perfect for our group of four. We highly recommend staying here if you are craving rest, relaxation, as well as adventure.

Cozy Stay Watching the Ocean

My husband and I and our late-teen daughter spent mid-week in March. There were a couple of storms, which we loved watching from the many windows of the house, with a fire going in the fireplace. We did the hike to the waterfall in Russian Gulch State Park before the storms started. We also enjoyed the Mendocino Botanical Garden in Fort Bragg. We highly recommend a stay here.

Everything about this house is as it appears, and even better. The communication and directions were superb and is exactly as it appears in the photos, amazing! The house is well stocked and organized. We had everything we needed, and some things we didn't need. The location and the view is incredible and is close to Mendocino, shopping, and 10-15 minutes to Fort Bragg markets. We would love to stay there again!

Incredible spot!

Ten of us were in town for a friend’s wedding and the property couldn’t have been better! Right in the cliff, the house has truly incredible views. Aside from the setting, the house is extremely well stocked, has great areas to cook and eat a big meal, and has easy access to amazing trails and downtown Mendocino or Ft Bragg. Even with ten of us, didn’t feel too crowded. Would highly recommend the property and would love to come back!
