Our time at the cottage was very special. Mary and Peter Zama have created a charming environment on their property that is very special. The cottage is cozy and private, surrounded by the forest, a lovely, well tended garden, occasional deer and a very friendly pond of frogs. Five minutes from Route 1 La Petite Maison provides all the solitude... More

My wife and I spent a fantastically relaxing and enjoyable week-end in Mendocino, and our stay at "La Petit Maison" was the highlight of the trip. The house is absolutely perfect: richly equipped, immaculately clean and wonderful in every respect. The hosts, Mary and Peter, could not have been more welcoming, or helpful or gracious; they went out of their... More

My husband and I stayed here for three days and nights on our road trip through the area. It was the only rental we stayed in so I can tell you - it was so much better than a B&B. We loved this little cabin set back in the woods - it was so comfortable and cozy (although quite spacious... More

My husband and I just returned from three lovely days at La Petite Maison in Mendocino. This is a very beautiful cottage set in the woods not more than 10 minutes from Mendocino. The house is surrounded by beautiful gardens all tended by the owner Mary, who is a magician in the garden, among other things. The cottage was filled... More

We stayed 10Sep to 12Sep 2010, and truly enjoyed the cottage and its peaceful garden surroundings. It is worth mentioning that the entire 2-story cottage shown in the pic is at one's disposal. The Zamas' are kind and gentle proprietors who are devoted to ensuring the highest quality stay of their guests, but also know to give their guests privacy.... More

My husband and I stayed a La Petite Maison this past weekend and I cannot say enough about how wonderful our visit was. We only had a weekend at this lovely cottage, but if we could have stayed a month, we would have. We've not had that relaxing of a weekend in such a long time. The location of La... More

We would highly recommend staying here. Mary, the owner, is so delightful and thoughtful. We loved how stocked the cottage was and enjoyed cooking and eating our meals at the little table that was so thoughtfully set with flowers. A card and bottle of wine greeted us, which was so thoughtful. It really is a private retreat, Peter and Mary... More
