Cozy Location

We absolutely loved our stay at Casa Del Norte. The house was exactly like the description, it had everything you would need for a long weekend and felt private and cozy. Perfect location whether you want to hike or explore the coast. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to vacation in the redwoods.

This property was very convenient as we did several nearby hikes. Also there were wonderful swimming spots nearby. There were 9 of us and plenty of bedrooms and beds. One night we used the fire pit to make s’mores. We also had a good time playing pool in the evenings. The kitchen was well stocked. WiFi was good as everyone had at least one device and we didn’t have any problems. There was a good selection of DVD’s and games. Overall our family really liked the house and location.

Relax by the River

We truly enjoyed our stay at this home. It was spacious enough for our large group and had plenty of gathering spots so we never felt like we were sitting on top of each other. Having the windows open to hear the river was so relaxing! We had everything we needed and the beds were so comfortable.

Great Family Stay near Redwoods & Oregon Coast

My wife & I, our 3 grown kids, their spouses & 3 grandchildren spent a terrific week here in June. The location was perfect to visit many Redwood forest hikes, Oregon Coast beaches, the Battery Point Lighthouse, and many other areas. A week was the perfect length of time to take everyone to an area of the country that most have not visited, making the trip a huge success for everyone. Plenty of bedrooms, great common areas & beautiful view out the back of the property! I've already compiled our 1000 photos for the week & made family videos that will ensure that the week will be talked about for a long time!! :)

Fall trip to Redwoods

Perfectly located for the best parts of the Redwoods and Oregan coast. The house has great views of the redwoods from across the Smith River. Chris was extremely friendly, offered great advice, and helped when we had car problems. We loved everything.

Beautiful spot

A beautiful view, quiet, private location. Well located for touring. The host was very responsive to questions and needs. The kitchen is better stocked than any I’ve ever rented and the host made a point of saying if we lacked something, just ask. The beds and seating need some updating … things are getting worn.

Great home out in the woods

Our family and our friends’ family stayed here for about a week. We loved the house. The views can’t be beat. Waking up to the river every morning was divine. The house was large enough to fit us all without feeling like we were stepping on each other. The kids could run around outside, and loved the pool table in the sun room. We wish we could have stayed longer, and will definitely be back.

The View

Let’s take about the view, waking up every morning to the sound of the smith river, walking out to the balcony and just taking it all in. The view was absolutely marvelous. Relaxing and soothing. Just what was needed. The home was open, clean and just the right fit for us . Such a great time .

So nice!!

There was something for everyone here! Pool table was so fun overlooking the river, and when we weren’t in there we were working on a puzzle on the large dining room table. Lots of adventures and exploring near by. Especially loved to see all the generations enjoying time together, from a 9 year old to a 90 year old. Kitchen was convenient to use and we all slept sooo well, thank you!

Great home and great location

We had a two week stay for a family vacation and had a wonderful time hanging out, enjoying meals, playing games, going for walks in the redwoods, etc. Very relaxing and enjoyable. And the hosts responded immediately when the microwave quit and they installed a new unit the same day. Couldn't ask for better communication and response. You won't be disappointed!

Beautiful home with lots of charm

The spacious riverfront home nestled in the redwoods right next to smith river was a true gem. The extensive garden provided a tranquil escape, complementing the stunning river views. The interior was tastefully decorated and offered ample room for relaxation. The location was slightly challenging but the seamless check-in process and the host’s thoughtfulness added to the charm of this exceptional getaway. Highly recommended for those seeking a blend of nature and comfort with big family. Chris was so nice to be constantly communicating with us and explaining the details which went into making of this beautiful home! We would absolutely return to this memorable home.

Generous and flexible host!

Due to a major forest fire that closed roads and put evacuations in place in many neighboring areas, we were unable to stay at this lovely property. Chris was extremely understanding, communicative and flexible, and gave us a full refund. It was very sad to miss this opportunity, but as they say “nature bats last.” We hope to stay here in the Smith River in the future!

Great Redwoods access for a crowd

We stayed at this property very comfortably with 7 adults, 4 kids, and a toddler. The landscaping and river views are beautiful, and the house has everything you need to be a home base for seeing the Redwoods. Some of the best hikes in the Redwoods State and National Parks are just up the road. Host was very responsive. 100% would recommend to friends and family!

The host’s recommended areas for possible seal and sea lion sightings and we were not disappointed. The area around this home has everything for experiencing outdoor activities. Hopefully we’ll return one day. Thank you again Chris and Lisa!

The house itself was clean and comfortable with plenty of space for our family (group of 12). The location was a bit tricky, but follow the guidance given to locate the driveway to the property. It would have been nice to have access to the Smith River from the back of the property. Otherwise, it was a very pleasant place to stay and the views were beautiful.

Great Location, great for large get togethers

Had a wonderful stay at this wonderful home with friends and family. Was very impressed also with the great communication with the host and ease of check in and check out. Had a lot of fun playing pool, dining at the large table, enjoying the beautiful view and listening to the sounds of the river. Location is beautiful and private and being able to bring our fur babies with us is always #1. We had everything that we needed there excluding 2 bbqs for grilling. Definitely a must stay for everyone!

Great Family Vacation Spot on the Smith River

This VRBO feels like you are staying at a friends home -- the furniture feels cozy, the house set up is fantastic for a large family gathering, and the kitchen is well appointed for preparing meals. There are 4 comfortable bedrooms with queen sized beds (3 overlooking the river) and one bunk room with 4 twin beds, two large dining areas, and a comfortable family room with a warm fireplace. We had a great weekend at the house with 6 kids and 6 adults since it was pouring rain outside and miserably cold (typical for a March weekend). If we revisit the area, we would stay here again.
