Relax and unwind in the peaceful Willow Cottage. Cozy two bedroom cottage, conveniently located in between Mendocino and Fort Bragg; close to all the Mendocino Coast has to offer. Our rustic cottage welcomes you with a living/dining room space, one king bedroom and one twin bedroom. Nicely equipped kitchen with full sized appliances, cozy wood stove (wood provided), smart TV and strong wifi. Desk space in the twin bedroom provides privacy for working at home options.

Good to know

The cottage sits on 40 acres of private forest, accessed through a private, automatic gate. Drive time to both Fort Bragg and Mendocino is less than 10 minutes. The cottage is located near to the main home of the property, but is entirely separate with its own parking space, entrance and large back yard area with patio and fire pit. There are two separate bedrooms. The master has a king sized luxury Heavenly® bed, and enjoys a spectacular view over the pond and trees from the 7' patio doors. The patio is an idyllic sunny space to relax and enjoy the birdsong and forest. The second bedroom has a cute, built in cabin twin bed, also with a large picture window to enjoy the tree views. There is a spacious desk area for private working space options. The living/dining room has a warm wood stove (wood is provided) and comfortable sofa and chair and dining table. The smart TV and strong wifi offer good streaming options. The original cabin kitchen is fully equipped with full sized fridge, gas stove and microwave. The bathroom has a large walk in shower and modern vanity. Please note that the master bedroom is accessed through the bathroom, a quirk of the cottage! The cottage also offers a washer and dryer for guest use. The outside space is expansive, overlooking the pond and forest beyond. Licence #136161.

Other Details to Note

Willow Cottage @ Barte Woods has a long history, and has been expanded four times by the three generations of family that have stewarded the property since 1933. This means there are different levels and steps within the cottage. Please note this if any guest has mobility issues. The cottage is also close to a pond. Please be aware of this if booking with toddlers or young children. The pond is not fenced and at least 6' deep in parts. One dog is allowed, subject to an extra fee, but dogs must be kept on leash at all times and not left in the cottage unattended. Dogs must be friendly with other dogs as there is a golden retriever who lives in the neighboring house, which is located about 50’ away.

Loved our stay at Jo’s place. The cottage itself was cute and cost. The grounds around were breathtaking and we want to go back in summer to spend more time outside. The night sky was gorgeous and a lot of tiny hikes connected to the cottage. Jo was very hospitable and took time to say hi to us in person. Very centrally located in Fort Bragg but still felt remote which was lovely! We also met Jo’s adorable dog sunny! The place is dog friendly and our puppy loved it too 😊.

Totally loved staying in Willow Cottage in the middle of this beautiful forest. Ed and Jo are wonderful hosts. They live nearby but never intruded. Getting into Willow Cottage was easy. It's driving distance between Mendocino and Fort Bragg where there are excellent restaurants and parks. Lots of hiking --and beautiful beaches to walk on and gaze at. The cottage was super clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. There's even a fire pit for cozy evenings outside. Opening the large windows in the morning and seeing all the trees was a delight. We highly recommend Willow Cottage at Barte Woods. And don't forget to read the lovely history of Grandpa Barte building the cottage!
