Pelican Point, Dramatic Ocean & Coast Views, Spa, Next to Town

THE VIEWS DO NOT GET MUCH BETTER THAN THIS! The pictures give you some idea of the magnitude of the view down the coast, but to a tee, guests say it doesn't match seeing it in person.
When you walk in the front door, my best description is that it's like looking out of a cruise ship that docked on a private cove. With Russian Gulch State Park as our neighbor, you have a unobstructed view all the way down the coast to the Mendocino Headlands! Stormy days are majestic as you sit and watch the coastline explode as far as the eye can see. Sit outside on our large deck overlooking ocean and hear nothing but the waves while watching the migration of the gray whales, or relax in the hot tub with the same commanding views. We added a downstairs patio complete with a fire pit. Yet you are only 5 minutes from downtown Mendocino, full of great shopping, restaurants and nightlife. Russian Gulch State park is less than 1/2 mile from the house where you can hang out at their beach, Kayak the coves, or hike the trails to waterfalls. Take a stroll to the Pt. Cabrillo Lighthouse or a little further brings you to Caspar Beach where you can surf, kayak or simply lay back on the large sandy beach.
Back at our home, we have all the amenities you will need, from a full kitchen, cable TV, stereo, VCR, DVD, to a game room complete with a pool table, antique slot machines, corn hole and giant Jinga sets.
Build a fire, turn on our funky fish lights (By artist Doug Rathbun), pour a libation and enjoy. Stroll downstairs to the game room and enjoy a game of pool, or walk outside to the hot tub that is situated with the same commanding views and look at the stars overhead. This place is truly special, no doubt about it. From its unassuming exterior to the warm amenities inside, we guarantee the place will take your breath away.
A little update. At this point we've owned the place for some 11 years (2011-2022) I still get chill's every time I enter the home. The views are commanding. You'd be hard pressed to find a better location. It literally takes 5 minutes to get to downtown Mendocino. There you will find a historic town ripe with restaurants, shopping, grocery store and a museum. 6 miles north you will find Ft. Bragg with all the above plus a harbor that offers fishing and whale watching. Don't miss the Skunk Train.

Welcome to Pelican Point.
You will love it, ...I guarantee it!

The view is amazing. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking big meals. From the house walked along some roads to the Russian Gulch State Park beach. It was a very quick car ride into the cute village of Mendocino. We really enjoyed playing pool and soaking in the hot tub.

Our stay was nothing short of exceptional. Our host was absolutely fabulous, even proactively reaching out during a brief power outage to ensure we were okay. The home itself felt like a private paradise, incredibly cozy and filled with a curated, eclectic art collection that gave the space so much character. I truly cannot recommend this stay highly enough.

We have vacationed here with extended family for several years. The place is large enough to accommodate several families. There are excellent restaurants in Mendocino, 5 minutes away. The views are amazing. We love hearing the surf every day. The enclosed deck is a family favorite. Highly recommend!

A lovely house in a great neighborhood with stunning views. I loved the peace and quiet and sounds of the waves. The kitchen is well-stocked with decent knives, plenty of a variety of glassware, plates and flatware. The accommodations are very comfy.
