About this house rental
Captain Phill's Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!' Looking for the perfect family reunion spot? Look no further than Captain Phil's gorgeous five-bedroom Albion vacation rental offering ocean views, a gourmet kitchen, fireplace, and private hot tub! The vacation home is located just south of the village of Mendocino in a quaint coastal community. Nestled amongst the California Redwood Forest and the Little Salmon Creek, the home is the ideal spot to set back the clock and regain some peace and solitude. A five-minute drive will offer beautiful views of Albion River Bridge, a WWII era wooden trestle bridge, shopping, and oysters and artisan cheese plates at the Ledford House. This charming getaway has exposed wood ceilings, ornate driftwood carvings, and soft leather touches. The large social areas, including the living room, kitchen, and dining room are upstairs in this second-story vacation home. Feel instantly at ease in the open-concept living room, with its soft leather reclining loveseats and sofa. The loveseats are huddled around a unique carved wood coffee table base with a glasstop, and frame the large rock fireplace and flatscreen smart TV. You and guests will gaze into the fire or absorb the nearly panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean thanks to floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the expansive patio. High-speed free WiFi makes it easy to keep up with friends and family back home. Just off the living room is an exquisite kitchen with custom wood cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances including a built-in microwave, oven, gas range grill top stove, dishwasher, refrigerator, toaster, coffeemaker, double sink, and plenty of cutting boards and kitchen accessories to serve large meals. An expansive granite kitchen island will allow you to prep lunches for your ocean adventures. Just off the kitchen is a formal dining room with a wood table for eight. At the heart of the table is a twisted carved wood centerpiece. Three sliding glass doors off the main living area lead to the expansive patio, complete with a mermaid figurehead at the eve of the roof. Slather up with sunscreen and lounge in the Adirondack chairs on the deck which overlooks the grassy knoll and rolling waves. When the mood is right, slip into your bathing suit for a romantic dip in the private patio hot tub overlooking the sea! At night, this spacious home offers five bedrooms and four full bathrooms. Two bedrooms are upstairs, one with a king, an en suite with a soaking tub, and a walk-in closet, and the one with a queen-sized bed. Downstairs is three additional guest rooms with queen-sized beds, and a regal game room with an ornate claw-foot pool table with red felt. Don't forget to pack your gadgets! Drive just a short distance for geocaching, fishing, and boating to where locals call “the redwood tunnel to the sea” at Navarro River Redwoods State Park. Make the 15-minute drive to Mendocino where you can go whale watching, board a charter fishing boat, browse book shops and galleries, or enjoy a pulled pork sandwich and local brew at Patterson's Pub. No matter how you spend your time - kayaking the sea, butter dipping Dungeness crab in a local restaurant, or soaking in the hot tub, this gorgeous Northern California Coast vacation rental is the perfect spot for you and your family to relax with all the comforts of home and appreciate your time together in beautiful Albion.

It had all the amenities for comfort for a good sized group -- 5 couples could fit easily. But what really mattered was the area - the forgotten section of the California Coast is just spectacularI

Needs several important repairs before next rental. Living room sofas are unusable, major crack in kitchen sink counter top, kitchen sink leaks needing repeated emptying of bowl under sink. No live TV. Need more deck chairs. Front door lock is extremely hard to use. Downstairs faucet needs repair. Nice remote location. Great kitchen supplies and utensils.

Space and amenities were great. Dishwasher leaks and the light over the pool table shorted out. Facility was not clean, the trash was not emptied and the dishes in the cupboards were dirty. We were not told that we could not walk around the streets and property online.

We loved our stay: tranquil location and gorgeous views. A family of deer were in the yard much of the time.
The beds were comfy too.
Only item to be aware of is thin walls. The people downstairs can hear those upstairs walking (they provide earplugs so no big deal for adults but we have small children). Similarly some rooms have triangular windows so face masks recommended.
This house is beyond stunning and those were minor items but good for next visitors to know.
Thank you for having us!

Lots of opportunities to share, play, pool, and games, sit in hot tub, enjoy scenery. Only drawback is inability to just get out and walk a bit in the area.

Definitely a five star, we had a great time at Captain Phill's. The views are just like in the pictures. The whole place was nice and clean, and plenty of rooms for our party of 8. The kitchen was stacked with anything you can imagine, with all sorts of equipment and spices, etc.- actually I think this was the best equipped kitchen that I have seen so far in any rental property. Knives actually worked :)) It was perfect for our Thanksgiving Dinner. This is a great place to relax and watch beautiful sunset from the hot-tub.

We just got back from a great weekend staying at Captain Phill's in Albion. The home overlooks the ocean with the distinct sound of surf always present. It's a very well designed place to spend time with a small group of friends/family in the midst of much natural beauty. The home is comfortable and had everything that we could have needed to cook, entertain, and hang out. And we were lucky to catch 2 spectacular sunsets, as well as spotting multiple deer and foxes. To get to Mendocino is about a 15 minute drive, so keep that in mind.

Lovely home, spacious, open, airy, well equipped, great deck and hot tub. For some reason, renters are not allowed to walk around outside toward the ocean; that was unexpected

Everything was great, except locating the gate off of Highway 1 was difficult. Should have better signage for St. name.

Beautiful Quiet Retreat
This property has the most incredible view and is in the perfect location. Just a ways down the coast from Mendocino it’s a great spot to land. Can’t wait to go back. And don’t forget about the view!!

Great house with lots of space and comfortable beds. The Pool table was a great success with kids and adults. It is very unfortunate that you can not walk around the property. The AC/heater was working but not predictably. A description of how to operate would help since it was really cold downstairs and very hot upstairs. Overall would recommend this house.

my husband has a very hard time with steps this house is full of them. That should of been stated in the description. Upon walking into the house it smelled and than looking at it everything was dirty, this has never happened before to me I was stunned . We left early.

Such a great place to stay. Not being able to walk around and the quiet time was hard for us but we survived. The house its self is amazing and fit perfect for our group. I could see it being great for a multi family trip. The only reason I am doing less than 5 stars is because the hot tub broke and that was the most important part for us.

Great set up for a couple families. We had a great time at the house. I don’t think it was worth the money we spent. We have stayed at nicer and cleaner rentals for much less but our options were limited.

We, a group of teachers who’ve been in the classroom all year, escaped for some much needed rest and relaxation. The Good Captain, our nickname for the property, took excellent care of us. Providing us with both spaces to connect and spaces to take private time. The views are amazing and the kitchen is dreamy. Thank you for sharing this lovely place with us.

We stayed at captain Phil’s for a family getaway with my parents and my 4 kids and it was absolutely wonderful! We were all very comfortable, plenty of space. The open kitchen and family room with a huge dining table was perfect for being together and making and enjoying great meals. The property is gorgeous, we spent a lot of time hanging out on the deck and looking for wildlife- birds, turkey and deer! The hot tub is an added bonus for maximum relaxation! Such a great location- just a few hours from SF and then an easy drive into the adorable town of Mendocino. We went kayaking, rode the skunk train, watched the sunset from the headlands, and enjoyed the many beaches and hikes. Truly an outstanding vacation for nature lovers like us, from ages 2 to 80! :)

Very good size home with a great view. Very disappointing that you can't take a walk on the roads or to the ocean. We were a bit upset with the cleanliness of the home. There was pet hair on the beds, a very strong cat oder and mouse poop on the stairs. The location being close to beaches and Fort Bragg was great. The pool table and hot tub were fun! In the master there are 2 very creepy cherubs hanging from the corners of the room. Very bizarre!! But over all we had a good stay!
