Dog-friendly home with a firepit - across the dunes from the beach

Love the beach? Then come to Ocean Dunes, a 3-bed, 2 bath vacation rental tucked away in a peaceful eucalyptus grove just a few minutes’ walk from the dunes and the Pacific Ocean. It’s hard to get closer to the water than this – after a short ascent up a trail, you’ll come to a stunning overlook, with the dramatic dunes cascading down to a secluded beach and the Pacific Ocean. Cross the dunes to enjoy your choice of beach activities, whether sand castles, surfing, or strolls. Fans of Pixar’s Piper may recognize the birds running to the water’s edge and retreating with the incoming waves. 

This home sleeps 6 comfortably and can accomodate up to 8 guests if needed.  This coastal cabin perfect for families to spend quality time together in nature or for couples looking for a romantic retreat in a charming location.This property has a main house with 2 bedrooms and an extra and separate cabin with an additional bedroom and bath.

Whether you’re returning from a long day of adventures or you’re simply enjoying your beautiful surroundings (the property is perfect for forest bathing), the Ocean Dunes will be a relaxing refuge, a magical little home away from home. The exposed beams and wood floors and ceilings, paired with lots of windows and natural light, give the house a cheerful rustic feel, and thanks to the Roku TV and fully equipped kitchen, you’ll also enjoy all the comforts of modern technology.

In the dining area, you can start the morning off right with coffee at the two-person breakfast bar. The gorgeous wooden dining table seats four. If you want to whip up something special, the gas four-top stove and the microwave offer you options, while a kitchen island gives you plenty of space to prep your feast.

The living room has ample and comfortable seating, and the TV and board games offer fun entertainment options. Or, if you’re looking for a stellar outdoor evening activity, take advantage of the firepit outside – it’s hard to beat s’mores and stargazing.  Get lost in the night sky as you gaze up at the spectacular cosmos and the shining stars above.

The bedrooms offer luxurious mattresses, beautiful views of the forest, and comfortable furnishings. The main bedroom features a king-sized bed, a loft, a hammock chair, and a sectional couch, while the second bedroom has a bunk bed with two full-sized mattresses and a chair perfect for curling up with a good book. The cabin also has an additional bedroom and spacious bathroom has a bathtub with a shower if needed.

This home is the best of both worlds: you have access to all of Fort Bragg’s resources, but you can always return to this quiet cottage, complete with a beautiful garden lush with wisteria. MacKerricher State Park is a short drive away, with seals and sea lions, tide pooling, and the famous boardwalk, as well as an abundance of hiking and biking paths. A bit farther south, you’ll be able to explore downtown Fort Bragg’s cheerful community of shops, art galleries, restaurants, and attractions.

For fresh-caught fish and other delicacies, head to Noyo Harbor and sample some of our finest restaurants – supplied by our local fishing boats. Or take a longer trip to Mendocino, half an hour south of the house. Along the way, Jug Handle State Park, the Point Cabrillo Lighthouse, Russian Gulch, and the Mendocino Headlands all offer scenic stops and great picnic spots.

Why settle for a day at the beach when you can spend your whole vacation there? This vacation rental will bring you to the doorstep of the Pacific Ocean and is a great destination to relax, recharge, and rejuvenate. The scent of eucalyptus, the sound of the waves crashing, and the sight of the towering dunes will fill you with awe and tranquility. Come fall in love with the Mendocino Coast at the Ocean Dunes, a hidden gem that will enchant and delight you.  

NOTE: There is a rustic trail in the NW corner of the property rthat will take you to the ten mile beach sand dunes which is a quick walk from the house!

Property
We rented this quaint little place for a group of 6.3 adults, 3 kids (10 and under). Bunk beds were great for 2 of the kids. And the third bedroom is in a detached cabin, which has a bath and simple kitchen amenities. The main house was open and sun lit, eclectic coast built home, with large open rooms. Walk to the dunes is a hike, but enjoyable. The ocean is a long way from the house on foot. But the kids found immense enjoyment playing in the dunes. Nice property for a vacation.
