Escape to this beautiful home and enjoy the best of two worlds - both Mendocino Village and Mendocino Headlands State Park are literally at your doorstep! Take a five-minute walk to a picturesque nearby beach, stunning cliff-side bluffs, or along the expansive state park just across the street.

This home, an historical landmark built in 1881, has just the right blend of style, luxury, and rustic character. It is the perfect destination for that much-needed family vacation or heartwarming reunion of friends. Headlands View Home boasts plenty of spaces to gather together and also enjoy a bit of privacy and quiet reflection over the course of your stay - you choose! There is a large living area with both a wood-burning fireplace and zoned central heating, not to mention, gorgeous views! In a second living area, you’ll discover a gas fireplace and a small desk. Step outdoors and enjoy multiple decks with chairs and benches. Some guests could easily watch TV or play games in one living area while others read, listen to music, or reminisce in the other living area. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you will need to cook up many satisfying meals. Fourteen people can eat together using the kitchen table with leaf extensions and an adjoining bar. If you prefer cooking outdoors, just head to the back deck and turn on the gas grill. The house provides a wide variety of sleeping accommodations. Note that most bedrooms are actually open lofts. The north wing has a bed in an open loft and a double sofabed downstairs, complete with a comfy memory foam mattress. Next to the kitchen is a small bedroom. Head upstairs to find two open lofts!

Our family enjoyed this cozy little space at the end of town. The house had plenty of space for all of us and was stocked well with the necessities. We walked out to watch the sunset each day and loved spending time in beautiful Mendocino.

Our family really enjoyed our stay at the Headlands View Home. This home is not on the water, but it was perfect for us because we have a toddler. We wanted room for her to run safely and not have to worry about the oceanside cliffs. You have an unobstructed view to the North of the ocean, prairies of the Mendocino Headlands SP, and Point Cabrillo lighthouse in the distance. At this location you're walking distance (even with a toddler) to downtown, Point Mendocino trail, and Portuguese Beach. The home was everything we needed it to be and everything worked as it should. It's a cozy place that we were happy to come back to at the end of a long day exploring. This is a historic home (built in 1881 according to the plaque), so it has some historic home traits. Like most homes of it's age, it has had additions that don't necessarily "flow". There are essentially 2 halves of this house. The South side of the house is the original house and has a large living area with a wood fireplace, fully-stocked kitchen, a private bedroom, and a finished attic with a queen bed on one side and 2 twin beads on the other. From the kitchen, you take 2 steps down and the first bathroom is on your left, and the laundry room is directly in front of you. The laundry room is a pass-through to the North half of the house. This side has a full bathroom, a dorm kitchen (sink & mini fridge), a living room with a gas fireplace, and a loft with a large bed. Beyond our initial walkthrough, we kept the door to this half of the house shut because we didn't want to worry about our toddler going up and down the stairs to the loft. The view from the living area was spectacular though. Finally, the house has a large yard with plenty of area for kids to play and explore. There is a scrub pine in the front yard that our toddler loved climbing on. Overall, we were very happy with our stay!

I would gladly stay at this property once more! It was comfortable, clean, and a super nice location for a stay in Mendocino. All the things people come to Mendocino for were showcased here - the quaint buildings especially. This neighborhood offers great walking and easy access to everything in town and nearby areas.
