Cozy cottage and town
Trinidad was a quaint town to explore and crabber's cottage was a great home base for our day trip to Redwood National Park.

The best, most relaxing time away that I’ve had in years! The cottage is in a quiet area just a short walk from ocean views. It is comfortable without clutter. A place to do whatever you want to do in the moment.

Our May Stay
It was a wonderful stay! Love Trinidad. Mirrors in bathroom were a little high for this short person, and an ice maker would be nice. Ice trays are challenging. But overall it was beautiful and serene.

Comfortable and quiet stay
Enjoyed our stay here. A couple things would make it nicer, like a small apartment size clothes washer and dryer, and since there is no stove a small electric hot plate to cook on. Restaurants in the area are so, so. Got some bad coleslaw and diarrhea at one, hair cooked in my pizza from another. Great beach and beautiful views. Bed was very comfortable.

Great Place.
This place was perfect. We stayed here visiting and hiking in the Redwoods NP, which is absolutely amazing. The host were friendly and quite helpful when we reached out about the internet. A Big storm had knocked it out 2 days prior. But it was back up the next morning! The living room was larger than expected, which is always nice. The bed was soft and very comfortable. Honestly, I'll be staying here again, next time I am nearby. My favortie feature, was being 1 Block from the Memorial Lighthouse. That overlooks Humbolt bay. I Loved walking here with my morning coffee to watch the sunrise. Then walking down to the pier for breakfast at Seascape restaurant. Be aware you have to walk back up the small hill after breakfast. For those who are older or less mobile, I'd recommend driving down to the restaurant.

The Crabbers Cottage was simply adorable. It was spotless, and the beds, furniture, and linens/towels were comfy and new. It had everything we needed to feel like we were at home. The location was great--walking distance to the grocery store, ice cream shop, and the beach. Who knew Trinidad was such a charming town? The house manager made us feel welcome, and was easy to communicate with. By far my favorite vacation rental yet.
