Such a beautiful place in the redwoods. The road getting there is definitely unevenly paved with big dips - don’t rec low clearance cars. We have a big truck and it was fine. You just have to park in an angle to make it work. The other car was a sedan and again if you park in an angle it will be fine. Loved the hot tub in the redwoods and the big screen for movies. The base is broken but it’s still very cool. My family of five (two couples ) stayed at the place. The fire pit is lovely. The kitchen has just enough to get by for cooking. Definitely dog friendly. The only downfall is not having a third bathroom for the person staying in the second bedroom next to kitchen as they have to use the master bedroom to get to the bathroom. For families it’s okay but for couples it might be an issue if it bothers you. 15-20 min walk to beach in a very quiet neighborhood. Loved how peaceful it is!

This was our family of six’s (dad, mom, 3 teens and a pup) first experience staying in a vacation home. Boy did you all set the bar high. LOCATION: TREE-mendous spot perched perfectly amongst the redwoods, and I do mean amongst! Yes the drive on a one lane road that carries two way traffic was a bit hairy the first time (I recommend getting here with daylight to spare); however, it just became a fun adventure after the first drive. We were in a minivan, and after I saw a UPS truck squeeze by, I thought, “If he can do it, so can I.”. Just remember your driver’s ed class; cars going downhill have the right of way. Be aware that there’s lots of stairs from the parking spot and in the house. I’m 55 with a back that feels 88, but I was still fine. HOME: Trees envelop you as you sit on one the deck(s) or relax in the jacuzzi. It is quiet and peaceful. The owners thought of EVERYTHING. If you have it in your home, it’s here too. Directions and notes on how things work are everywhere. The binders of information are really helpful.. The pictures don’t do the property justice. The beds were too soft, but that’s a “me” problem. SERVICE: We had a small inconsequential issue which required attention. This being our first experience in a vacation home, I didn’t think it would be quick. I was wrong. A couple of texts and a phone call later, issue addressed! Great customer service.. I wholeheartedly recommend this wonderful home. I would absolutely stay here again.

The house is very nice but located on a very narrow street with difficult parking. We had two larger cars. Parking is a narrow platform and turning radius was a challenge to say the least. The property description should include this information. We would not have stayed here if we had known. Nothing wrong with the house, just would have appreciated knowing about the parking challenge in advance since we had two vans. Also, the beds were a bit too soft.

We loved this house in the trees it was so tranquil. It was layed out so 2 small familys could share this home 1 upstairs 1 downstairs.The beds were very comfortable the kitchen was well stocked. The theatre size viewing screen was a delight for a movie evening. We used the bq on the the deck for quick dinners and roasted marshmallows for s'mores over the firepit. We enjoyed many excellant nearby wineries, tryed river floatubing remember to bring your own tubes or rent some.Monte Rio beach was our go to beach with free parking and dogs allowed. We made some lasting memories with our family here in the Grove house in the trees we will be back.

My family of 4 came here for spring break and wow! The house is more beautiful in person. The details to the decor were amazing. The furniture pieces including beds were comfortable. Hot tub was perfect temperature when we arrived too. The individual heaters in every room were great since we came during a week when it was cooler and the house warms up nicely. The two decks are beautiful and perfect for outdoors when it’s warmer. The narrow windy road leading to the house is a bit daunting but so long as you drive during the day it’s good. Follow the directions to the house provided by the manager for sure! I had to use the vacuum and only thing there is that is a non pleasant smell comes out from it. Maybe it’s the vacuum bag? The house was well stocked with cleaning and bathroom supplies too. The downstairs area with second kitchenette was super cute. We didn’t use it but I enjoyed looking at how it was decorated. Communication with the property manager was efficient and prompt. She was super friendly. We would totally love to stay here again. Its proximity to the beach and other landmarks is perfect.

This home is likely to be remembered as one of the best ofs in our vacation rentals. I generally like to spend most of my time exploring but I was content to hang around this home enjoying its outdoor deck in the treetops, the hot tub, and the very enjoyable home theater. Traveled with our adult children and having two floors gave us plenty of room to sprawl out. The three bedrooms were all nicely appointed, as was the home overall. Loved the decor throughout and the high level of thoughtfulness for guests. I’ve truly NEVER been in a rental that considered so large a range of guest needs and provided such detailed instructions to make you feel at home. Whatever eventuality could have happened, I felt like I could just open the guest book & find where to find what I needed or where to go to get it. When I searched the first aid kit for a bandaid, I was so impressed to see it stocked with all the basics plus things like activated charcoal, pepto pills and allergy meds. the kinds of things you never find except in the bottom of a Mom tote. Really appreciated the thoughtfulness when I had some tummy rumbles one day. The whole house is that way: I kept expecting to not find something I needed but they have thought of it all. They even provide accessories for dog guests. The beds were super comfortable with high quality bedcoverings. The two kitchens have all you need (basic spices) to make great meals. Loved the coffee making options. Lots of games and puzzles; musical instruments to play. The decks are wonderful places to just relax. Loved watching leaves drop and spin down to the ground. There were only two things that I were less than perfect. 1) my son went to bed and was greeted by a dead bug on the duvet. We also found that some of the hand towels had makeup stains that were not evident until unfolded. We thought the towels were left dirty so we washed them & the stains remained so I am going to guess they were just stained but housekeeping should know that a guest has no way to know that. It just looks like someone hung up dirty towels. 2) the one way road is a bit daunting to navigate, especially in a larger car/SUV, but worse is the parking. You WILL LIKELY scrape the *^# out of your car if you don’t have the clearance. The parking deck entry is VERY oddly dipped. Adding a pic w/a parked sedan would help make the point of how this affects many normal cars. My SUV was fine. My son’s Lexus badly scraped its fender and underbody.

We loved our stay here. The layout for our two families was perfect with two levels of living space. The early risers were able to use the space in the lower level without waking others. The views were incredible. The sports fans in the group loved the large screen television too. The attention to deals was wonderful, even the light switches were labeled. The owners provided a wonderful binder of local information that we used frequently. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms were beautiful. We would stay again!
