Seashore Cottage - Albion, CA

Immerse yourself in the pristine scenery of the Northern California Coast at this two-bedroom cottage, a remodeled Albion retreat with a private deck, sweeping views of the Pacific Ocean, and a wonderful location for family get-togethers and quiet beach getaways.

Scenically situated on an ocean-facing property that once served as a stagecoach stop in the 1860s, this single-level cottage shares eight acres of land with two other vacation homes and the owner's residence. The Seashore Cottage can be rented on its own, or together with the one-bedroom Tower House for family reunions, weddings, and couples' retreats.

No matter the size of your group, you'll enjoy panoramic views of the surrounding meadow, cypress trees, and ocean - all just nine miles south of downtown Mendocino, nine miles north of Elk, and 23 miles from the world-class wineries in the heart of the Anderson Valley.

Freshly remodeled and full of natural sunlight, the living space is the restful retreat you've been searching for. Feel the soft carpeting beneath your feet, take a seat on the plush sofa to admire the ocean in the distance, and light the gas-powered fireplace to keep warm as the evening fog rolls in.

With no TV or cable service, this home will encourage your family to relax, reconnect, play board games by the fire, and prepare meals together in the full kitchen. Store your groceries in the plentiful cabinetry, flip pancakes and brew coffee each morning, and sit down to eat homemade breakfasts at the spacious dining room table.

Take morning drives to the beach in the Navarro River Estuary State Marine Conservation Area two miles south, or spend your afternoons hiking the nearby Navarro Point Preserve and Scenic Trail. Come home to sip a local Red Seal Ale outside on the deck, which offers spectacular views of the sunset on the ocean.

With two bedrooms that each include their own individual heaters, this Albion cottage will accommodate as many as four guests. You'll find a king-size bed in the master bedroom, a queen-size bed in the guest room, and a comfortable sleeper sofa in the living room. The one full bathroom features a walk-in shower.

Whether you're visiting the Northern California Coast to hike, explore wild ocean beaches, or drive an iconic stretch of Highway 1, you can do it all in and around Albion. Make a morning tee time at the Little River Golf Course six miles north, or drive a few miles further to walk the charming streets of Mendocino. Gaze at the rugged bluffs in Mendocino Headlands State Park, or sit down for a romantic meal at Cafe Beaujolais in town.

Green thumbs will delight in a visit to the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens 16 miles north, while Glass Beach - a marvel of the Northern California Coast - sits only three miles further. Wine lovers can take leisurely drives into the Anderson Valley to tour the local vineyards, and beer lovers can make themselves at home in the North Coast Brewing taproom 19 miles north in Fort Bragg.
