Airbnb Review-April 2024

Reviewed on 2024-05-09 by Mu-Ping

I came across Stace's property as I was planning for a solo weekend getaway with my pup. While the price was higher than I planned to spend, my stay was SO worth every penny! Not only was the house exactly as described, amenities amazing and all – but Stace thought through all the details of what guests will need and more. Upon arrival everything was all set up and ready to be enjoyed. I loved being able to cook (in a fully stocked kitchen), hot tub under the redwoods, and try all the cozy seating areas for drawing, reading, working, cuddling by the fireplace. Bed was very comfortable and shower pressure/temp perfect, something I don't usually expect in the woods. My dog loved finding his favorite spots to lay in the backyard, and we both loved being able to access the river and great cafes nearby. One thing to note is that you are very close to your neighbors (though the place still feels private). Come ready to rest, rejuvenate in majestic redwoods! Will return for a future getaway!

The house served our needs but it needs a DEEP cleaning. Dust webs on some lamps, think there is black mold in corners of floor of shower, dust under beds,,etc. Lights were so dim in kitchen we had to replace a dim bulb over the stove. Dim bulb still over kitchen sink. No one seems to be taking care of the grounds. Lemon tree and potted plants were bone dry, so I watered them frequently. The quiet back yard with its redwoods is what we liked best about the property and mostly why we enjoyed our stay.

A comfy little slice of heaven.

Or stay at FernWoods was everything we wanted. Very quiet and nestled in the trees. The backyard is very nice with plenty of seating to relax and enjoy the outside. It was raining during our stay but that didn't stop us from using a hot tub. Which was fantastic. I would recommend this place to anybody that was looking for a quiet place to get away. Kitchen's a little small, but you can find everything you need. The beds are really comfortable. Nice warm blankets and plenty of them if you should want more. The House was really clean. The road to it is very narrow and the driveway is really steep, but luckily there's two extra parking spots just to the right.

Manager's Response

Fern Woods is definitely a sweet spot to reset and recharge in the peaceful redwoods - but still not too far from good food!
We look ofrward to hosting you again soo!
