Enjoy a magnificent garden and deck at this four-bedroom Mendocino home, a breathtaking family retreat where you'll find abundant space for entertaining and wonderful access to the trails, beaches, and towns of the Northern California Coast. Ideal for reunions and peaceful family getaways, this three-level home sits on the eastern edge of Point Cabrillo Light Station State Historic Park, just one mile from the historic lighthouse itself. You'll be only half a mile from Frolic Cove Beach and its surrounding coastal trails, three miles north of Mendocino, and eight miles south of downtown Fort Bragg.
Your vacation begins in the great room, which features exposed beam ceilings and plush leather furnishings that will make you feel right at home. Admire meadow, forest, and partial ocean views through the picture windows, relax in front of the wall-mounted flatscreen TV, or use the WiFi to check your email. Prepare meals as a family in the open gourmet kitchen, which offers a farm sink, black granite countertops, 48-inch professional range, and modern appliances that include a dishwasher. Each morning, you can sip a cup of coffee in the window seat before setting the breakfast table in the window-lined dining room.
But the true beauty of Caspar Dream lies in its gorgeous outdoor spaces, which include a verdant garden and a spacious deck that were designed for entertaining. Fire up the gas grill each evening and enjoy the lovely sunset view from the patio table.

Family stayed 4 nights . Loved the kitchen and all the bedrooms and bathrooms and awesome deck. Did notice home could use a deep cleaning due to cob webs and crumbs inside cabinets etc. vacuum was very dirty and full and couldn’t use. Overall loved our stay though . Thank you!

This home has a lot of opportunities for relaxation and enjoying your surroundings. This is a great space for large families and children. Our family of nine were able to enjoy all the levels and the views from various places within the home. The beds were comfortable. The house has an awesome kitchen to be able to cook and connect with each other. The deck space provides a lot of area to move around and enjoy the views and just sit back with a nice cold one and enjoy each other.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Beautiful kitchen with everything you could ever need in a kitchen. We also like the way the living room area was set up. Nice for a group of people to sit and chat. Love the kitchen table, especially because there was individual seating and not bench seating. The window seats was a plus. The owners of this property had everything well thought out. Everything was nicely stocked. Towels, linens, extra blankets. We enjoyed being able to watch the deer out the windows. Beautiful ocean view. We even took a family portrait in the gardens in the back.

We enjoyed staying here. Three levels with bathrooms/showers on each level provided enough private space for a larger group. There is also a large open common area with the kitchen. Large deck with a nice view of the ocean (from a distance) Deer roaming on the lawn. Very peaceful.

So so wonderful and relaxing! The deck was awesome with comfy chairs for everyone to watch for whales. The kitchen was a pleasure to cook in with tons of room for everything. We especially loved the gourmet stove! **Though the bbq did not have fuel to use.
The beds were comfortable and everyone slept great.
It was really nice to have so many full bathrooms
**though the hot water wasn’t hot particularly on the top floor.
**The kitchen was not as clean as it should’ve been. The beautiful custom cabinets were not being kept up and the refrigerator smelled of fish.
But we all agreed that we will be returning when we can. Hopefully the hot tub will be operational then.
Thank you!

The house is huge and spacious and has a nice panoramic view.
The location is good as it is close to the Lighthouse.
They mentioned to be careful with water usage but we didn't face any issues and the stay was smooth.

The house was gorgeous!!we enjoyed our stay vwry much!! Some of the pictures were not accurate as some remodeling had been done. Directions and rules were a bit confusing as the listing and emails contradicted each other a bit. Some palces said 3 cars, some said 4. Some llaces said nk

Great property for a family getaway. Lots of room for everyone. Close to many attractions in the Mendocino/Fort Bragg area. Would recommend to anyone going to that area!

Large and well appointed kitchen. Spacious home. Clean. 3 floors so privacy for each family. Very comfortable beds. Large picture windows on main floor that’s great for gathering Everyone together. Friendly, helpful owner. The only inconvenience was the 3rd floor shower wasn’t very warm so that family used an extra 2nd floor bathroom as needed. My 90 year old mom had help going up and down the first flight of stairs most the time to be with everyone. Overall, it was fabulous for our family!!

Spacious, with lots of light, and nice deck area. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking with a nice gas stove, and a large table for eating together. Beds were comfortable.

This quirky vacation home was perfect for our family. Upstairs for those with older kids, middle floor for Grandpa and Grandma and the lower floor for our family with younger kids. The kitchen, living area and deck were, by far, the most popular places for our family to hang out together. The owner introduced himself and was very responsive to any questions or concerns!!!

We stayed in this home for 5 days with a group of 10 - 6 adults and 4 kids. The house had plenty of space for everyone and was quite comfortable. Everything was clearly labeled which did help with understanding what switches we needed for lights and where to find pots and pans. The beds were comfortable, the view was fantastic - we all enjoyed the deer that would come to graze all day long - and the location was perfect. Just a two minute drive to a great little beach where we found lots of sea glass and shells and only a few minutes from Fort Bragg,
The house was unfortunately not that clean when we arrived. Everything was quite dusty, the trash had not been taken out in the kitchen and it smelled quite bad. We were just happy to be there so nothing too terrible, but definitely not what you would expect.
Also disappointing was the hot tub not being in service. We only book houses in this area with a hot tub so to lose that the week before we checked in was really a bummer. In addition, the water conservation signs placed all over the house were intimidating and made us all nervous. They tell you that they are monitoring your water usage and that if you use too much they will close the house. What they didn't tell you is what too much is - we had 10 people and had to run the dishwasher twice a day. We had sandy clothes that we were afraid to wash. Most of us only showered once the entire time we were there out of fear of over use of water. We are from California so are highly respectful of the drought concerns we all have but these notices without further clarity about what would be OK to do made all of us feel pretty uncomfortable. It also led us to think that perhaps a house that hosts 10 people with this level of water concerns is not really a good fit for a vacation rental. At the very least some additional guidance on what would fall into ok levels of usage would be helpful.
Overall we enjoyed our stay and the house was great for our size group, but we would not book again.

When we arrived at Caspar Dream, we were met by a welcome crew of seven deer (three bucks, two does, and two fawns) grazing on the lawn outside. That pretty much set the tone for our entire stay. The location and views are incredible, and the interior common rooms, decks, and garden were perfect for a group of nine adult friends who appreciate space in their togetherness.
The house was immaculate when we arrived, and everything from light switches to kitchen cabinets were well-labeled for ease of figuring things out. None of us could get cell service, but the internet was stable and fast enough that we didn't run into any issues.
Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would be happy to return to this dream house. Give our love to the deer!

Family weekend at Caspar Dream
The little kids loved bunking up together in the top floor bedroom. The teenager appreciated having his room separate on the bottom floor. The adults slept well too (the bedroom on the main floor was surprisingly quiet despite its proximity to the main living area). We all enjoyed the well equipped kitchen, relaxing on the deck and watching the ocean, deer, and turkeys. Would absolutely come again.

Wonderful Family Vacation
First time we have vacationed with my husband's family. The house was close to so many attractions like the Point Cabrillo Light House, the Russian Gulch State Park, Caspar Beach, and so much more. Amazing views of the ocean from the 2nd floor and decks! We were able to relax and watch the sunset each night. We would definitely book this house again.

The two of us had stayed in Caspar Daydream last year, and this year we brought some friends to stay at Caspar Dream. It's a wonderful "home away from home" with everything we needed. Great location in Caspar to get to fave hiking and ocean views, but also wonderful to hang out at the house - inside or on the spacious deck. The kitchen is fantastic and well supplied. We all agreed we'd come back again.
Just a couple of mostly minor issues: a) the DVD player didn't work, b) the carbon monoxide alarm in the upstairs bedroom went off the first evening there (used battery notification), then on the last night there, the smoke alarm (again, probably old battery) went off in the same bedroom and it's too high to reach. We lost some sleep due to these alarm's battery backups not kept up to date and the resulting loud beeping, and c) there were 4 musicians in our group and the nice lyrics on the kitchen wall is incorrect (it's "I think to myself..." not "I say to myself..." Like I said, mostly minor issues.

Great Home for a Family Reunion
This home was perfect for my family "mini reunion". We were all in town for my nephew's wedding and the house is perfectly situated in between Fort Bragg and Mendocino.
The house is spacious and well appointed.
