Great stay

This was a great spot to stay. It was close enough to all the sites we wanted to visit, but also removed from the crowds - very serene and peaceful. Landscape was beautiful, spent each morning in the yard watching hummingbirds fly all around. The house had all the supplies we needed, a quick stop in eureka for food allowed us to enjoy our morning and evening meals in the comfort of the house instead of eating out all the time. Only real hiccup we had was not being able to get the satellite TV to work. It’s in a pretty remote spot, but they did provide us with WiFi, so we just used our phones to watch evening shows. Thanks for lending us your space for a few days while we enjoyed the beautiful Redwoods!

Amazing!

The Lagoon House is great. There was plenty of room for 10 of us. The beds were comfortable and what an awesome view to wake up to! Kitchen is stocked well and spacious. Washer/dryer worked well. Local grocery store has enough to get by. And the best part is it is a short drive to Redwoods Park where you can see otherwordly scenery! The perfect base camp for family adventures into the park. And plenty to do at the house if you find yourself staying there. Would love to stay here again.

The perfect way to experience Northern California!

The pictures do NOT do this location justice. If you are on the fence about booking, jump off that fence. This home is cozy, the hot tub is perfect for sipping coffee in the morning, the flowers are beautiful, the views are unbelievable, tons of toys for the little ones, and older teens. Everyone loved the piano! We could easily access multiple areas, we visited fern canyon (note you must reserve this in advance, we could not get in but took the drive) Elk Meadow which had the most beautiful stream and waterfall, Trees of mystery, which was WELL worth the trip, Trinidad State Beach which was breathtaking, we got tattoos in Arcada (recommend Tru Nature - Eva was great! ) and we also visited the beach across from the lagoon from the house which we had all to ourselves! We even picked wild blackberries on the road to the house to eat. Amazing family time!

Amazing view through dirty windows

The view is amazing. However, the property manager needs to make sure the cleaning crew cleans. There were countless spiders/webs inside throughout the home. The interior & exterior of all windows, especially those that face the lagoon & ocean, were extremely dirty and had a lot of dead bugs and old spider webs on them.

All 8 members of my family absolutely loved your property to say nothing of the fabulous nearby Redwoods. Only negative was that people had responsibilities which limited the duration of our stay.

Amazing peaceful views, beautiful flowers!

This home is conveniently located to points of interest both north and south. It has stunning views of the lagoon and ocean. There are plenty of birds, even eagles to enjoy while sitting on the patio or in the hot tub. The road up to the home is not well maintained; there are lots of pot holes and it is narrow in places. Please drive with caution once you leave RT 101. That said, the drive is worth the view! We made use of the provided binoculars to watch the wildlife. The home was large enough for our party of 9. The kitchen is appropriately stocked for prepping family meals. Appliances are clean and in good condition, please note it’s a regular coffee pot not a k-cup. There is a selection of dvds, games and books The furnishings and bathroom decor are dated. This home is on a mountain so be prepared for spiders and cobwebs. The house is surrounded by colorful plants that attract plenty of hummingbirds. This home provided the opportunity for great family memories.

We enjoyed a peaceful stay overlooking the ocean with plenty of space for our family of 5. Beds are very comfortable. The hot tub was a bonus for us to relax with a great view. The property managers responded promptly to our questions. Would stay again!

Beautiful and peaceful home.

We had a great time in this home. We were exploring the Redwoods with our 10 year old son. He LOVED the ping pong table and hot tub. We also enjoyed playing board games at night. The location was great, conveniently located between Trinidad and Klamath. We were able to enjoy several beautiful trails nearby. The house was clean, well stocked, and the beds were very comfortable.

Perfect home base for Redwood trip

The listing undersells this property! It feels larger and nicer in person. Views are amazing - not just the lagoon, ocean view too! The kids loved the cat that visited daily, the frogs in the pond, the mass of ripe blackberry bushes, and the banana slugs covering them in the mornings. Orick is a great central location for access to Prairie Creek State Park which has a ton of nice hikes for little kids, fern canyon, and also some National Park locations. It’s also a great spot for quick access to the nearby beach, or to head south to more epic beach landscapes or for dining options. We saw elk there everyday! The kitchen was nice to cook in, and the big primary bedroom worked great for a couple with very young kids to all be together. The ping pong and air hockey in the garage were also a big hit. We’d love to stay here again, highly recommend!

Great location, great view, great vacation!

We were looking for something casual and comfortable with lots of space and a great location -and this was perfect. The property was clean, the view of the ocean is beautiful, and it is located within driving distance to go easily both north and south to park destinations. House was fully equipped and was well set up for children and extended family. Several eating spaces including large deck. Laundry was so nice to have available after a day of hiking or tide pooling. We really enjoyed our stay!
