Great deal, Very comfortable. Don't want to say too many good things because I want it to be available the next time we head to Mendocino.

It is very private and comfortable, with a nice view of the ocean and close to town.

The unobstructed ocean view from the deck and from inside was spectacular. The eclectic decor was original and welcoming. The bed was very comfortable. We'll be back!

There are two locks on the front door. Figuring out which one and how the correct lock worked was time consuming and gave us problems every time we came back to the house.

The view.
3.0 / 5.0
Loved the location and the view. Can’t beat it. Close to downtown Mendocino and have a beautiful view of the ocean. Had descent amenities. Bed wasn’t that comfortable, however. Really lacked pillows for a good nights sleep. Also got no instructions on how to use the lock, it wasn’t intuitive. Had to call maintenance to get inside.
5.0 / 5.0
We loved being so close to the ocean, opening the windows at night to hear the crashing waves. A quick drive to town for any necessities and close to beach access

5.0 / 5.0
This is the smallest of three rental spaces on this property and when it comes to the view by far the best. It was like having an ever changing piece of art in front of me all the time. I had everything I needed to be comfortable. And with easy proximity to Mendocino village and Shoreline Highway, my stay was marvelous.
3.0 / 5.0
The artist’s studio is absolutely charming with inspiring view of the ocean and nice decks around which the daffodils were blooming. Comfortable, pretty, clean and cozy accommodations. Very close to downtown Mendocino though not safe to walk due to no shoulder.
However, the method entry is not user friendly. Using the Schlage keypad was not easy and we stood in the cold rain for some time, making several attempts to use the 10 digit code, which we had written down on paper. We had received a link to “how to master” the Schlage and key lock box, but there we were in the elements, without wi-fi yet, trying to open the link. The key lockbox would not open. I tried to call Vacasa but did not have a signal. Seemed a bit ridiculous. Finally we got in. I see another review mentioning that it took 30 minutes to get in. Once in we could not obtain the secure wi fi- had to use insecure one.
With that view, no one needs tv,but we had brought a dvd of a movie we hoped to watch. There were no instructions how to deal with the different remote controls in order to get the dvd movie to interact with the TV. In the meanwhile there various warnings about what we should not do. This and the difficulty getting in were not helpful.
We did have to report an inoperable outlet and rain-induced leak to Vacasa, and the first thing that happens when you call is an invitation to text instead. I felt like we were renting from a bot! But after reaching humans, I appreciated the interchange.

Absolutely the best view in Mendocino! Ideal for artists, ocean-lovers, and dreamers. A spacious one room studio.
1.0 / 5.0
Property was run down, i.e. shabby furniture, rusting accessories in the shower. Also, both days I stayed at the property there was a loud wedding/party going on next door at the Agate Cove Inn. Loud music was playing from 4-10:30pm. The DJ's speakers were no more than 15 feet from the studio. What was supposed to be a relaxing weekend in Mendocino became a nerve wracking experience. Be forewarned.

Cozy studio cottage by the water
Comfortable bed, nice kitchen, comfortable chairs, great view, lovely flowers, two decks, good shower. We had a great stay and would return. We have spent many happy times in Mendocino and this was a new location to stay. Very charming. Only problem, the road is not so busy as to be noisy for the cottage at all, but in our opinion it is a little too narrow and busy to walk safely down to the bluffs or to town so we ended up driving. Not a big deal.

Ocean Views and Breezes to Refresh the Soul.
Sweeping Ocean Views. Wonderful, eclectic decorations. Well appointed with everything you could need in the kitchen. Thoughtful touches (warm blankets to snuggle in on the deck, binoculars to view passing whales). Excellent use of a small space. Never felt cramped. Close to town.

Wow! Honestly best ocean-view cottage in Mendocino!
Beautifully staged studio cottage. Don’t be fooled by the map, which shows there is a road between the cottage and the sea. The view is actually unobstructed and magnificent.

Wonderful!!
The cottage was great. They had everything that you could imagine in the line of utensils etc. Pots pans, pampered chef, coffee pots even a waffle maker. Couldn't have had a better view of the ocean. Very clean and comfortable.

Perfect little house
The view is pristine, the kitchen is extremely well stocked, and for 2 people it’s plenty spacious. I also doubt you can find a better combination of price and location if you’re looking at staying on the North Cali coast. This is a gem

Great Place, Hard to Find
The directions for driving to the house were easy to follow right up until we parked the car. There was no mention that you have to walk completely around to the left, around the small shed, through a gate marked Private, to the front of the Studio. There you will find the lockbox. We spent about 30 minutes trying a different door because there was no mention of this go-around route. I called Vacasa but by the time they tried to help, we had already found the path. The house was great. It had everything, except any bit of food, save a Himalyan salt shaker. You need to bring everything if you are planning to eat there. It was very convenient to go less than a mile to town but since Lansing Street has cars we decided to drive to town. The views from the 2 porches were amazing. I would definitely stay here again - especially now that I know how to get in!

Excellent rental
Our 2 weeks were perfect. Kitchen well stocked. Very clean. Fantastic views. Lots of storage space for a studio. Vacasa property management team were very responsive to our inquiries. Would definitely stay here again.

Awesome ocean views
Great location to some phenomenal nature. One minute drive to the main downtown and less than 15 minute drive to all the local nature hotspots. Photos don’t really show it but you are right next to a main road. Sometimes you do hear trucks and cars. Also the bed is hard as rocks.
