This cozy little cottage really allowed us to relax and soak in the views of the west coast (especially from the hot tub). The house was clean, well kept and the location was super unique.

This is the first VRBO stay that I felt the place was even Nicer than the pictures posted online. The cottage was Wonderful. There was an ocean view, hot tub, and all the amenities I needed to make breakfasts in the morning. The cottage was super clean and very nicely decorated. Comfortable king bed.It was close to everything I wanted to do and see in the area.

This was our second day at Alder cottage, and we came back for a reason! It’s away from everything, beautiful views, we love to hear the sea lions barking, and the waves crashing. It’s a great homebase, and we went up to Oregon and then also around Redwood Park and so many beaches! On this trip we went to Gold Bluffs beach and were nearly the only people there. A perfect get-away. Customer service is also immediately available and responsive. We did not use the hot tub, but appreciate the fantastic and well appointed kitchen. (My hubby is a great cook!)

Well-equipped cottage

We have stayed at a lot of VRBO properties. This was one of the best. We enjoyed the proximity to the various redwoods parks, grocery and eateries, as well as some lovely beaches. The kitchen was the best-equipped, neatest we've encountered. The place was just the right size for two, and the ability to walk down and sit looking at the ocean was a bonus. A positively sumptuous bed was only slightly offset by the fact the couch is not very comfortable. We did not use the hot tub, so I can't speak to that.

Fantastic location for visiting the redwoods and other surrounding nature areas. Very cozy place for two and we loved being able to see the ocean views from so many windows. A small note that this rental is on a property with a few others. Not a big drawback, but we thought it was more secluded and didn’t expect as many neighbors. Overall an absolutely fantastic experience- would definitely recommend.
