Absolutely perfect
I’ve been coming to Mendocino for 25 years — sometimes with kids, sometimes with my spouse, and sometimes on my own. This is the nicest place I’ve stayed at. I initially booked it for myself, but then my husband decided to join me. I was worried from the pictures that it might be too cramped for 2 people, but that was not at all the case. There is a nice comfortable indoor sitting space for 2, in addition to the kitchen table/chairs. And of course the garden space is amazing. But even on a rainy day, we were very comfortable and happy indoors. The kitchen gear was well-stocked. Mike and Kathleen are lovely kind hosts. We hope to come again!

Mike and Kathleen are excellent hosts. Very friendly and detail oriented. The cottage was clean, well-appointed and very comfortable. A lot of love goes into maintaining a historic property. Staying in downtown Mendocino was perfect. We were able to walk everywhere. Will definitely come back agian!

Sweet little cottage
This was a delightful midweek stay (three nights) for our 50th anniversary. The owners’ attention to detail means this historic property was charmingly old-fashioned, bright and clean, and heartwarmingly romantic for us. It was very quiet, with a private little garden area, and set in the middle of Mendocino. Thank you Michael and Kathleen!

A great stay in Mendocino Village
We were very pleased with Mike and Kathleen's cottage. The cottage is located in a lovely enclosed garden, and has a southern or southwest exposure. Thus, the cottage has lots of sunlight and a very charming outlook to the garden. Everything necessary for a satisfactory stay is provided: a comfortable bed with beautiful linens; a good shower; a functional kitchen and two comfortable armchairs with good reading lights. Everything was immaculate and in good condition. We loved the location of the cottage in the heart of the village. We never used our car during our entire three night stay. That was wonderful. Mendocino Village has many good restaurants. It was a joy to be able to walk to and fro to an excellent meal in the evening. On top of all this, we found Mike and Kathleen to be warm and friendly hosts. Their long residence in their historic Mendocino home has provided them with a deep knowledge of the area which we found very interesting. Highly recommend a stay in this charming cottage!

The cottage was charming and comfortable. Well equipped kitchen and comfy beds. The location couldn't be better. Short walk to many restaurants, shops and the beautiful headlands path. The hosts couldn't be nicer.

What a wonderful cozy cottage
First off Mike was great at giving us a heads up about what to expect weatherwise and with details about the cottage. When we arrived Mike and Kathleen greeted us and introduced us to the cottage. They have all the little details covered so you can move right in and be comfortable. we had a great relaxing time. Right in the heart of Mendocino so easy to walk to everything. We really enjoyed the cottage and chatting with the hosts, though they didn't hover around. They were gracious in giving us our space. Definitely want to come back.
