The Getaway: "The Place to Stay"- Selected by PureTravel Digital Magazine
Cozy, Cosmopolitan & by the Coast

Your perfect two-bedroom, art-filled, post-hike escape with handcrafted wood accents, jetted tub, wood stove and cocktail cart. And we can't fib, we are delighted to be singled out as the cozy, oh-so-charming pick for accommodations in the article "The Secret Charm of California's Northernmost Escape."

Strolling distance to the beach, gated backyard, fire pit, blanket, bbq to enjoy!

The space
The Getaway is designed to be your eclectic, comfortable and original refuge after a day of beach and hiking. Located in town and close to the beach.

Completely renovated with redwood siding, lots of light, a modern wood stove, vaulted cedar ceilings and local wood touches (think elevated cocktail counter, wood beams and hand-laid bamboo flooring) this 2 bedroom + den home is waiting for you.

The art-tiled bathroom has a jetted deep soaking tub.

The backyard is completely enclosed with fire pit and chairs. A propane BBQ can be wheeled out to the front flagstone patio area or the enclosed back yard. A two-car driveway provides protected parking. We have an internet equipped 42 in TV, due to limited access there are not over the air channels. Netflix, YouTube and other internet channels are available.

We are a pet free location, we strive to provide a location for people with animal allergies.

We offer a coffee bar with fresh beans for grinding and an espresso machine. Washer and dryer available for your use on premise.

A ceiling-mounted ductless provides heat and A/C plus cadet heaters in each room so you can finetune your comfort.

It's about a 5 minute walk to the beach and great sunsets and a 15 minute drive to the redwoods.

And yes, that is a Rock Em, Sock Em Robots game you saw in the den (which will feature a work station and chair for your remote working must-do's).

A cocktail cart will keep your martini glasses ready, just bring your beverage fixings.

A turntable and small collection of vintage vinyl is also available for your listening pleasure (or you can dance, we'll never tell!)

Please let us know if you have any questions.

Guest access
There is a wide two car drive way for parking.

Other things to note
There is an Owners Unit on the back of the house - we may be there from time to time doing some property care...but you won't really see or hear us at all! :-)

Neighborhood highlights

Crescent City is an old, long-established beach and timber town with quite a history. The Getaway is located in the Berryessa neighborhood of town on the north/western edge of the city limits a short distance to the ocean and was built in the 1950's, completely renovated in 2021. You are surrounded by wonderful families, however - this is a funky little beach town with a cast of characters. You will see lovely little homes and flower gardens next to not-so-groomed houses (probably because the owners are Out Fishing). The Getaway is located on a local street. You will have some car noise from time to time and workdays there will be a bit more traffic than on weekends. On some occasions, you may hear a seal barking (yes the seals in the harbor do have parties sometimes..) or the fog horn at the harbor entrance. In general, these noises are not loud or distracting and you will not hear then in the house. Overall the town is fairly quiet (except for July 4th and really that whole month; folks love their fireworks here!).

Meet your hosts

Where I went to school: CSU Fullerton, communications program
My work: public relations
I'm a fortunate girl; I love my Tall Guy husband, Paul (6'5"), my family and friends (and don't forget my cat!) and I have work that allows me to travel. Thank you who ever was in charge of designing my life. I'm originally from California, and moved to the beautiful Pacific Northwest about 8 years ago. I love to read, explore, hike, paint and a bit of running as well. My work is in public relations (technology) so I get the added bonus of working with very smart people. It keeps my humble. I am always looking forward to my next trip, and looking forward to guests enjoying either of our two vacation retreats: The Getaway and A Street Cottage in Crescent City, CA - home of beautiful beach and redwoods.
