The open ocean and the spectacular cliffs of the Northern California Coast unfold before you at this incredibly positioned oceanfront cottage in Elk! Here atop a breathtaking bluff, you can watch unforgettable sunsets from a viewing deck that sits above the crashing waves and Elk Rock below. You'll have a 180-degree vantage point of the entire coastline, more than seven acres of oceanfront land, and a darling, beachy cottage to welcome you home.
An ideal escape for whale-watchers, wildlife enthusiasts, and those simply seeking a beautiful retreat, this light-filled home is full of casual elegance - from the bleached wood beams to the plush, wrought iron beds. You can read the morning paper in view of the ocean, prepare breakfast on updated appliances in the kitchen, and grill outside on the deck for lunch overlooking the water.
Whether your interests lie in wild beaches, dramatic vistas, ocean kayaking, or diving and surfing, you'll find it all on this majestic stretch of shoreline. This home sits just over a mile south of the town of Elk and Greenwood State Beach, 11 miles south of the historic Albion River Bridge (the last wooden bridge in operation on Highway 1), and 18 miles south of charming downtown Mendocino.
If you hop in the car for a drive up the coast, you can make scenic stops at Navarro Beach (eight miles north), Navarro River Redwoods State Park (11 miles northeast), Mendocino Headlands State Park (19 miles north), Russian Gulch State Park (21 miles north), and the Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens (25 miles north). To the south, the Point Arena Lighthouse (18 miles south) is famous for its wonderful sunsets.

Summary: Pictures do not do this justice. Amazing views of the Pacific. Quiet with lots of wildlife. House was very comfortable with everything we needed and a short drive to everything. We will be back!
Timothy B. Feb 17, 2025 04:58:02 AM
Summary: This property is located on Highway One right on the edge of a cliff. The views are stunning. The house could use some minor upgrades such as a newer dining room table and chairs (chairs felt loose) and kitchen needs some minor updating. Those details aside the stay was awesome and the pros outweigh any cons in our opinion. We would definitely stay here again.
Patricia A. Dec 9, 2024 09:19:00 AM
Summary: Really enjoyed the cozy vibes of the cottage and well-stocked kitchen for cooking. The view is seriously amazing. Very special to get to relax by the beautiful coastal cliffs. One thing: The doors to the deck look like they're made to open all the way up (and presumably were intended for this) but actually got stuck and became immovable. Flipping through the guidebook for a solution we eventually found a sticky note that said 'don't open the doors, they'll get stuck' -- which is both too little too late -- probably needs more explicit notice, and is also a shame because it'd be amazing if they functioned properly to open up to the wonderful view. Would be great to see that get fixed. Would love to come back.
RICH S. Oct 22, 2024 09:28:37 PM
Summary: My wife and I just wanted a quick, quiet trip to the coast and boy did this place not disappoint. Very clean and all the amenities you need. They've thought of everything. And the view! It was exactly as the pictures and description show. Highly recommend this spot.
Brandon K. Oct 19, 2024 09:26:48 PM
Summary: The view was incredible, and the outdoor seating complimented it very well. The house is secluded, but there are plenty of things to do within a short drive. We enjoyed Navarro Winery, Hendy Redwood Grove, dinner at Point Arena pier, and visiting local beaches/trails.
Jennifer C. Oct 2, 2024 09:28:23 PM
Summary: The view here is stunning. You will never have a better ocean view - the sun sets right in front of you. House is comfortable and well stocked. Highly recommend this place!!
Lesli B. Sep 19, 2024 09:28:37 AM
Summary: Beautiful secluded ocean cottage with spectacular views. Quiet and private. Well appointed cottage with everything we needed. Perfect for 2-3 people. I would definitely rent again
Iris K. Sep 7, 2024 09:48:27 PM
Summary: The view is spectacular! We loved the privacy and the wildlife (cute rabbits, hummingbirds). This is definitely one of our favorite places ever.
Patricia B. Aug 28, 2024 10:19:24 PM
Summary: The house is on Hwy 1 and the street noise can be heard over the ocean. The deck is the main attraction, and the rest of the house needs some work (doors, windows).
Joseph C. Aug 24, 2024 09:31:46 PM
Summary: We had an amazing, quiet stay and loved exploring the surrounding towns and parks. The host went to great lengths to make us feel comfortable and safe. Will be back soon!
