Cottages at Little River Cove

Visited this place recently (9/24) with my girlfriend and two dogs as this was advertised as dog friendly. Cute property with nice little cottages. The property was nice, quiet and somewhat cozy with a relaxing fire pit to end the night with. The bad: -This place prides itself on being “eco” friendly and in being so they supply you with onlyTWO thin thin thin bath towels that will leave you pulling fuzzies from in-between your toes and between your butt for days after leaving. I wouldn’t even clean the rims of my truck with these towels. We ended up going to the nearby story to buy better towels. “Smaller towels to use less water to clean” they say. - All shower heads have been replaced with low flow shower heads that display 1.5gpm but are barely 1gpm. Good luck trying to take a decent shower. - The towels combined with the cold trickle showers made bathing not fun. - the grass in the middle of the property For your dogs has been let to die. They’ve stopped watering awhile ago. Pretty disappointing for us and our dogs. - all of our toilets were low-flow toilets and both were broken with instructions to hold both high and low flow buttons to flush thus wasting more water. - Kitchen utensils looked as if they were bought at the goodwill. Pretty dismal. All cookware had peeling Teflon coating that would have gotten into our food. We ended up buying a cast iron skillet with our towels and used that for everything we cooked. We should have left it as it was cheap. - Upon calling to confirm the arrival of our dogs for the dog “amenities” i had requested no treats and no bowls as we had our own. Hoping that we’d still get the dog beds and other gifts we got nothing. For what was paid for our stay, we should have stayed a mile down the road and would have gotten a better experience in our opinion. Hoping the management will reply to our emails .

Our stay here was absolutely amazing! There were so many nice, cozy touches that made it feel like home. The view was phenomenal and we enjoyed the deck/patio. It was clean and close to town. Check in/out was a breeze. We will definitely be coming back!

What a nice little cottage to rent. You just look out the front door, and there's the ocean. There's also a big grassy area between the cottages for the dogs to play on, and a beautiful little patio with a fire pit that you can sit at watching the ocean in the evening. Mendocino is literally just a couple miles away, but you don't have that bustle going on all around you when you stay here. There's also a full kitchen with pots and pans and such so you can prepare your own meals if you choose. That's what we usually do, but this time we eat out the entire week. We will definitely return.
