Good Fortune - McKinleyville, CA

Scenic hiking trails and wild ocean beaches are all around you at this McKinleyville retreat, beautifully situated with an ocean view on the west side of town. This home is a respite after days of adventure, where you can watch movies by the gas fireplace, tell stories around the firepit, and stargaze in the hot tub out back.

This west-facing home sits on a landscaped, half-acre corner lot, less than two miles from the center of small-town McKinleyville. Stroll around the corner to meet up with the Hammond Trail for morning walks and incredible nightly sunsets on the Mad River. In this spot between Arcata (six miles south) and Trinidad (eight miles north), you can get out and explore with ease with Mad River Beach (four miles), Cal Poly Humboldt (six miles), Trinidad State Beach (nine miles), and Redwood State and National Parks (28 miles) all close by.

The great room acts as the center of activity, offering a lovely space to read in the warmth of the fireplace, play cards in the glassed-in dining area, and have your favorite movies streaming in the background. The adjacent kitchen is well equipped for all of your needs, offering stainless steel appliances, all sorts of culinary tools and gadgets, and an island with bar seating for easy meal prep.

Spend your evenings in the private yard out back, roasting marshmallows at the firepit and soaking in the hot tub with string lights twinkling in the background. When it's time to turn in, leave your swimsuits in the care of the washer/dryer and retire to two comfortable bedrooms. Each has a wonderful new mattress and is paired with its own full bathroom.
