I really enjoyed our stay at the Cottage, from the pet-friendly touches like a dog bed, treats, and such to make our pups feel at home to the cozy atmosphere and friendly service. There is a small yard area in the middle of the parking lot that was well maintained and provided with potty bags, scooper, garbage, etc for pet needs but I enjoyed that they also had an area in the back of the property where I was able to walk my pups a bit off the leash (we were the only ones out there), so they could burn off a little energy.
The Cottage was very clean and well maintained. I guess if there was anything that I would say is a negative would be that we could hear the water in our neighbors rooms (so I assume they could hear us too). But the walls weren't so thin that I could hear them talk/tv/etc.
Our "Family Room for 4", #9, was stocked with a small kitchenette including dishes, microwave and mini-fridge. We had 2 very comfortable queen beds and a small table with 2 chairs inside and another small table with 2 chairs outside our door.
I would recommend this to others that know the area and don't mind driving just a minute or two to a near by beach. We are familiar with the area and know beaches we like, so we did not try the beach they suggest on their website. We did find out that the beach at Noyo Harbor is also pet-friendly and enjoyed a sunset with our pups there.
If you are not familiar with the area, the person that checked me in was more than willing and knowledgeable to share information about the area. I would definitely stay again!
