Share an unforgettable getaway at this custom-built, modern Mendocino vacation rental. Aptly dubbed Whale Song, this remarkable home overlooks the ocean. It even has a private, oceanfront hot tub.

Perched on a lush hillside, this unique Northern California Coast lodge is close to area attractions. Just five miles away is Russian Gulch State Park for a scenic hike to a 36-foot high waterfall. The Devil's Punch Bowl, a large collapsed sea cave with churning water, is nearby too. Bike to Pount Cabrillo Lighthouse and Caspar Beach - it’s all close to home.

At the rental, you’ll have everything you need to relax as you wish. Whip up a delightful meal in the fully stocked kitchen then curl up by the fireplace. Or, stay up and watch TV while everyone else goes to bed.

In the master bedrooms, you’ll have a spacious king-size bed. In the second bedroom is a queen-sized bed, and in the third bedroom a twin. Every bedroom has an ocean view and access to a private deck!

After a day hiking among the breathtaking coastal vistas of Mendocino, make sure to rejuvenate in the hot tub. While that’s going on, toss your clothes in the private washer and dryer. It’s all about a carefree vacation.

With its magnificent ocean views, stained glass, and tasteful furnishings there is something for everyone at this beautiful Northern California Coast vacation rental.

Great Location and Amazing View
Loved our stay! It was quiet and relaxing and the view was amazing!! Totally not the owners fault but there was a skunk that stalked us the entire stay. Just something that happens in nature but loved everything else about our stay.

More songs from the Whale
We have stayed at this property several times over the last 8 years and it is still a wonderful place to pull the plug and enjoy the peace and quiet as well as the view. I will say that the house doesn't have the same family warmth and love that it did years ago. 10 years of online renting and use is taking a toll and it shows. all the lights are now LED which are way way too bright at the standard 6500K light temp/color which is very very sad for the coast and a 'warm' property. look into LED lights that are rated at 2700-3000K otherwise it just looks like warehouse lighting inside. pictures are missing off the walls and other aspects of rental 'entropy' are becoming very evident. there is also trash that previous renters have let fall over the decking and are visible in the brush below....also sad. I'd still come back, but thought I would offer some constructive criticism and input for a place that I do love.

Great location, notable kitchen issues
The location, views, hot tub, and decor were incredible! There were too many scraped up teflon pans in the kitchen (likely because management provided a metal spatula), but luckily we found 2 that still worked. Can opener barely worked, and there were 20+ ants per day despite us keeping everything in the fridge and keeping the counters clean. The beds were also very firm. Biggest 3 changes I would encourage management to make are 1)vinegar cleaning spray available to guests to minimize ants 2)go through cookware and remove unusable/incompatible items 3) buy a mattress topper for at least one of the beds. Would recommend to anyone with scoliosis or who doesn't want to cook in the meantime. 1 more tip unrelated to the place! Make sure you drive a bit (10 mins) for gas, otherwise you'll pay way too much

Only negative to report is the house smelled a bit musty. The house is beautiful, and the proximity to Russian gulch State Park, and other view points/parks is great. 10 min north of Mendocino, 10mins south of fort bragg. Highly recommend!

Sweet house, beautiful spot!
We had a wonderful stay. The house is comfortable and well- equipped. The interior was spotless when we arrived. We were invited to check in early which was a nice bonus. Check in and check out were super easy. Another plus for us was the outdoor outlet where we could plug in our car (not a charger unit - just a plug - we travel with a charger). The management company didn't seem to know that it was there, so it was another nice surprise when we arrived. Eating out on the deck overlooking the ocean was wonderful. Great stay overall - we hope to return!

Private Retreat with Beautiful Ocean Views
This home is wonderfully situated between the towns of Mendocino and Fort Bragg. It is a short walk to Russian Gulch State Park and the beautiful Point Carrillo Lighthouse park. The home is perfect for younger, able-footed individuals… we traveled with three people in their 80’s, and found some issues. The staircase to the second floor bedrooms is very steep with narrow, thin steps, and the water can get VERY hot - with some valves that were difficult to figure out. That being said, the home was large, comfortable and affordable. The kitchen was very well stocked and the beds were comfortable. While not directly on the oceanfront, each bedroom and the dining area offered lovely, expansive views of the gorgeous Pacific Ocean.

Just ok
The property touts ocean view and hot tub, which are true. That’s about where the amenities end. This listing needs a lot of updates to charge what they charge. The hot tub had literal scum floating in it, hasn’t been cleaned in quite awhile by the looks of it. I couldn’t even get in there I was so grossed out. Interior of house is very dated with both bathrooms smelling of old urine and mildew. Very few towels. We booked 6 guests but there were only 4 towels. The couch smelled like old dog. Living room and dining table only accommodate 4. The stairs are crazy steep and narrow, not kid or elderly friendly. Bathroom would not accommodate a wheelchair user. Ants all over the place, although typical of Mendo county. The driveway is very steep, so we had to unload at the top of hill and carry our stuff down so we didn’t bottom out. I’ve rented several places in the area, this is my first with this vendor. Definitely going back to other vendors. Bummed, but lesson learned.

This place needs a lot of love
The house was infested with ants. Upstairs, downstairs, in the carpet, in our beds and the kitchen was a hot mess. It rained and the rain came in the house through the windows. Some of the windows were fogged over. We lost power and the flash lights were all dead. The toilet leaked on the floor
