Welcome to the lovely town of Mendocino—and to the gorgeous vacation rental of your dreams! You'll be placed right within driving distance of the local hotspots, such as the Mendocino Headlands State Park, where a gorgeous hike that leads to its seaside bluffs and several beaches awaits you and your family on a beautiful day out. Slow it down and smell the roses at Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens where you'll find an assortment of beautiful flowers along a lovely walk path.

Return back to your home tucked away within the forest after a fun-filled day out on the coast and be welcomed in by the foyer's open arms. Inside, you'll find an assortment of amenities right at your fingertips, sure to set you in the mood for some much-needed relaxation. Take a quick power nap in the spacious living area, complete with comfortable furnishings and a spiral staircase that leads to the loft area. Whip up a mealtime masterpiece in the quaint kitchen area or head outside and throw some patties onto the gas grill for some classic American barbecue.

Bring your favorite book and read it out on the beautiful patio area as you take a deep breath of the fresh air and listen to the sounds of nature. Afterward, hop into a bathing suit and simmer for a while in the hot tub with some good drinks and even better company. As the night comes to a close, light the firepit and roast some marshmallows over the flame for some tasty midnight snacks.

Lovely outdoor space
The outdoor gardens are so lovingly cared for. Our family enjoyed roasting marshmellows over the fire, under redwoods, and quiet mornings in the hot tub.

Great Getaway
Our family stayed here for a few nights over our spring break. It was so warm and welcoming when we arrived. We enjoyed the unique layout of the home! The beds were comfortable and the kids enjoyed the fun loft sleeping spaces in some of the bedrooms. The workout room, hot tub, and fire pit were a great bonus. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a quiet getaway!

Mendocino getaway
Relaxing peaceful retreat. Garden areas are perfect to just sit and relax with a good book. House was welcoming and well appointed. Well thought out with guest and dog needs taken into account. Easy access to town, beaches, and hiking.

Lovely slice of redwood serenity 5 min from Mendo
Four adults stayed here for an extended reunion weekend and we had a blast. The amenities were great and we enjoyed the mix of indoor and outdoor spaces. Admittedly we are the 40+ crowd, so the loft beds were not used, but they would be AWESOME for some families with kiddos that can handle the steep stairs. Can't wait to return!

The coziest casa in the redwoods.
My family and I absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Mendo Cupola. It was a quiet retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. Everything was great. The hot tub was awesome the fire pits were lit the landscape was stunning. They had corn hole bocci and PS5. The couches were comfy and the kitchen had everything. We cooked we soaked and we relaxed. At night you could hear the waves crashing at the ocean. Great vibes !! We will be back. Thanks for having us Mendo Cupola.

Privately near everything
We had a great time at Mendo Cupola. The house is private but within a short driving distance from everything you could enjoy in Mendocino. The house had everything we needed, it was clean and charmingly decorated. The owner cares about the surrounding property and gardens too, it was lush, manicured, and maintained and very nice for our kid. The yard was appropriately fenced, there was an abundance of fruit trees/plants and garden herbs, and there was also nice seating, heat lamps, a bbq, and fire pit. Everything has been considered. The house comfortably sleeps 6; the lofts are nice but little kids could potentially hurt themselves without adequate barriers from falling.

Botanical Oasis
This home has so many lovely touches in the decor. If there is a space that you want to enjoy there is likely a sitting area already thoughtfully arranged there. It was such a delight to wander the property and discover all the little hidden wonders! Our short stay was not enough time to fully enjoy this serene oasis. We will return without a doubt!

Peaceful and Relaxing
My family and I enjoyed our stay at this beautiful property. It’s well taken care of and had everything we needed for our stay. The property is tucked away in the woods to enjoy your privacy, yet it’s minutes from the beautiful town of Mendocino and beaches. We enjoyed daily visits to town and evening walks around the property with our dog. We BBQ’ed, played cornhole and enjoyed the fire pit in the evenings! Wonderful property!! Thank you for the amazing vacation!

My very favorite!
My family and I have been staying in Vacasa homes for at least 10 years for our vacations. This home is my very favorite so far. It feels isolated from everything, surrounded by redwoods and fern gardens. However, Mendosa's market in Mendocino is less than 2 miles away! The kitchen is well stocked. The beds are comfortable enough. The living and dining areas are great, including a double reclining sofa. There are lots of games to play. The wrap around deck is fantastic. Just a wonderful place to sit and sip morning coffee or evening adult beverages. The hot tub and outdoor shower soothed my husband's and son's sore muscles after a pretty rough ocean fishing trip. The property is also dog friendly and our little Boston Terrier absolutely loved exploring the grounds. He even saw a fox! We love Mendocino and we will definitely be returning to Mendo Cupola!
