Long Weekend

We were up in the area for the trails and beach, so didn’t spend much time at the place. But what time we did spend there was great. Awesome location and a perfect place to call home for a few nights. Thanks for such a great spot.

Liked: Property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Amenities
Door locks need to be replaced. It would be nice to have at least a hot plate & pan plus more amenities (shampoo, conditioner, hand soap). Disappointed that we had to take out the trash yet they asked for a housecleaning gratuity. Tub was backing up from all the hair clogged in the drain (gross!). Otherwise a cute & comfortable place

Awesome place! Very inviting and cozy. Short walk to the beach overlook. Nice add-ins like the game and book shelf, local information available, and emergency lighting (that we did use during a power outage). Lighthouse nearby. Close by restaurant, Larrupine' Cafe, had a sample board with several locally made food items, and the food was phenomenal!
Cozy overall

Absolutely loved the location!! Short walk down to the beach and a few hiking options. In depth binder with lots of info on town and cottage. Yard is very small & looks pretty unused but you're next to the coast & Redwoods!

Lovely stay in a clean, modern cabin with a great bed

Crabber’s Cottage is centrally located to all eateries in Trinidad, which an excellent coffee place a few yards away. The elevated view of the ocean is lovely. It’s a short drive to the beach. The cottage is exceptionally clean and the bed is amazingly comfortable.
