The house was adorable, comfortable beds, new build with nice touches and eclectic beachy decorations. The view of the ocean was beautiful.
It is truly dog friendly......big dog beds, bowls for both water and food. It was doggy heaven.
BBQ worked beautifully as did all the appliances.
Some reviews mentioned Hwy 101, you will hear cars but didn't keep us awake.
Beach access is a short walk across the hwy and the visitor center for Gold Beach was in the parking lot where you access the beach.
There are other beaches to drive and visit both north and south of GB as well. Redwoods are an hour drive south, Dunes are an hour(ish) drive north and all sorts of other beaches in between.
Cons:
Would have appreciated a hose for the spigot as our dog brought back 1/2 the beach sand every time we went which was at least 2x a day.
An in house directory of everything we need to know would be helpful....trash day? When and where to take trash cans, etc?
There is still some new house construction happening on the east side of the house which was a little bit of an eye sore but didn't look like it would be going on much longer as the new builds are almost done. There was no construction noise (PRO).
I would have rated a 5 stars but felt like I spent more time than I wanted communicating with the management company with little things that could be solved with a directory of information.
