Heavenly!
I had a wonderful stay at this property! The property is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views and a truly majestic feel. Melinda is a fantastic host—so thoughtful and communicative—and Jerry is incredibly kind. The grounds are perfect for a peaceful stroll, and having a market nearby made everything so convenient. The unit itself is well-equipped with all the essentials, and I especially loved the large TV in the living room and the super comfortable bed. I highly recommend this place and we will surely be back to stay again!

Peaceful, cozy retreat
My partner and I loved this place! Came here just for the weekend and wished we could stay longer. The property is beautiful and unique, and it was a treat to see all the animals and friendly dog. Kitchen and bathroom were well stocked, and the bed was very comfortable. Nice getaway!

Fantastic place to get away!
What a beautiful property! We loved waking up, making a cup of coffee in the keurig (coffee provided by the hosts), and walking outside to watch the birds. During the hot days, we loved taking a dip in the pool. And at night, we relaxed in the hot tub looking up at the stars!
We will definitely be returning!

another GREAT stay
This is our third (or fourth) time staying at Melinda's property. This is our GO TO spot when visiting family in Mendocino County. Melinda offers a very clean, comfortable place to stay and allows our kitty cat to stay with us which is huge. Thank you Melinda for always being consistent with what you offer. We love it!!

Perfect Get-away
We stayed at Redwood Valley at the end of a three week trip around California and it couldn't have been more perfect for a relaxing break. The property has everything you need and is close to some amazing scenery. Whether you want to have an active outdoor holiday or just chill and relax- you can easily do both here. The pool was great for cooling down in the afternoon and the hot tub for relaxing late at night to look at the stars. The kitchen is well kitted out for home cooking to go along with that craft beer or local wine you've bought. We came all the way from Ireland and couldn't have found a more perfect place to stay. Thank you Jerry and Melinda.

A quiet retreat in a beautiful setting
My wife and I stayed at Melinda's cottage for four nights while I had business nearby in Ukiah. It was a comfortable, well-appointed residence that provided a nurturing time away. Melinda was helpful and responsive as needed but otherwise not to be seen. She kindly mailed several clothing items to us that we left in the cottage.

Redwood Valley Escape
From the first time I saw the listing I knew it would be great. We arrived to a welcome gift of a bottle of wine, and locally grown eggs, and Melinda even brought over homemade zucchini muffins one day.
We were able to take our granddaughter for walks near the lake, to see the mules & goats, and went swimming in the pool. The Lake Cottage, and the whole property is beautiful, and had everything we needed for our stay.
We will be back!

Oasis in mendocino county
This was a little oasis in Redwood Valley, so nice we ended up hanging out here more than we anticipated. Very clean and classy, the complimentary bottle of wine was a fantastic touch! The pool was so fun and the hot tub with morning coffee was a great way to start out days. The kids loved petting the goats and horses. Thanks Melinda!

Unforgettable
I had the most incredible stay at this property that I simply cannot stop raving about. From start to finish, it was an unforgettable experience that surpassed all my expectations. I cannot recommend it enough!
First and foremost, the property itself was absolutely stunning. It was evident that the owners had poured their heart and soul into creating this serene and inviting experience. As soon as I walked through the door, I was greeted by a sense of warmth and elegance. The attention to detail was remarkable, with every corner adorned with tasteful decor and thoughtful touches.
The living spaces were spacious and comfortable, providing the perfect environment to relax and unwind. Whether I was lounging on the back patio, enjoying the beautiful views from the kitchen window, or reading by the lake, It was like a dream!
What truly set this property apart, however, was the exceptional host. From the moment I made the reservation, they were incredibly responsive, accommodating, and gracious. They went above and beyond to ensure that my stay was nothing short of perfection.
The combination of the incredible property, the gracious host, and the meticulous attention to detail created a getaway that I will cherish forever. I left feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and I'm already planning my return. Thank you Melinda and Jerry!
