Perfect coastal retreat
Very well stocked. The turquoise and mermaid theme was so fun. House is beautiful and comfortable too. Especially the beds. Boys loved pool table and board games. Wish we had more time to enjoy the house more but we’re there to watch the Kinetic race. Neighborhood is beautiful and tucked away in central location on Mckinleyvile inbetween Trinidad and Arcata/Eureka. They didn’t let us check in early so had to wait until 4 so that was only bummer.

Decent house, terrible customer service
It’s a nice rental but the lack of communication from the host and the bad customer service took what would have been a lovely vacation and made it irritating. The host never replied in a timely manner to any messages I sent through the app and left me waiting for weeks. I finally had to call just to get the details of how to get into the property because they would not reply to my messages and did not send the details as promised. When I asked for a late check out they were not accommodating at all when in my experience in the past that has not been an issue. The new standard of having check out time at 10 am and not being flexible on that is really unacceptable when considering how much these rentals are. At 10:00 on the dot a maid knocked on the door and fussed at us to leave already, I’ve never had such a bad experience at a VRBO. Having the maid show up to harass us was the most upsetting part, so unprofessional. I would not book this property or this host ever again

Beautiful House
When you first walk in the door you are greeted with amazing views. The house is very well stocked with everything you might need and more. The location is amazing with the River, the Ocean and Trails right out your front door. The neighborhood is peaceful and quiet. There is so many things to do two days was not enough time, we definitely have to go back.

What a trip!
Mermaid Cove is the perfect place for a big group to stay together and enjoy the areas parks and towns. A group of friends met in McKinleyville to explore the parks, beaches and local shops/towns for 7 days. We couldn’t have asked for a better home base than Mermaid Cove. From the views to the house set up, we had everything to make this the perfect vacation together. With your own home banana slug mascot to the frogs singing at night and each morning to the waves breaking on the beach, we were in paradise. Redwoods National and State Park with its multitude of hiking paths, visitor centers, and beaches to explore close by, we had plenty to do in the area. You can’t go wrong with staying at Mermaid Cove.

Amazing Beach House
We loved this house. It was perfect for our annual friends book vacation. We loved how spacious it was and enjoyed sitting on the porch (or in the hot tub) watching the ocean as we relaxed. The house was super clean and had everything we needed. Plus the beds are so comfortable we contacted the property manager to find out what mattresses they had. Overall amazing stay.

Great house with ocean views
We really enjoyed our stay at Mermaid Cove. The house was clean and well-stocked. The hot tub and fire table outside are awesome when combined with the amazing views! They also had cornhole outside, which we loved. It's important to note that the house doesn't have actual access to the beach. The views are great though!
