Our 2nd stay @ Sandy Clove Cottage. We had a wonderful time, despite a cold start. We had no heat when we arrived. With that, we had the privilege of meeting our host Bob. He came to our rescue & got the heat going for us. Such a very nice man. Thank you Bob. Even with all that, we very much enjoyed our stay. Can't wait to return. Beautiful cottage. Walk to the beach everyday. Listen to the ocean. Sit on the porch & watch people & wildlife pass by. So very enjoyable.Tim & Leilani

Great Get Away

Great location....cottage has just about everything you need. Gas fireplace was delightful. We had a very relaxing stay. The first bedroom mattress was a tad uncomfortable/old but we made due. Being able to hear the ocean, ride bikes or walk to the beach, and get to town in min are a huge plus!!

Delightful home, great location!

Had a great mini vacation at this delightful home. Easy and prompt communication with host, easy check-in. Could not be closer to MacKerricher State Park without being IN the park. Home was clean and comfortable. Kitchen was very well appointed. Bed in master bedroom was very comfortable.

Quiet Retreat

Enjoyed a quiet peaceful time, and enjoyed the very comfortable and well equipped house. Family members were camping next door at MacKerriker State Park. I enjoyed meals around the campfire with the family, but was able to return to this quiet retreat for a comfortable night's sleep and a warm shower.

Perfect location

We have been camping at MacKerricher Park for over 50 years but I recently has surgery so opted to stay at the cottage. It was like being in the park without all the set up and tear down of camping. We enjoyed the back yard a lot and Bob was helpful.

Sandy Clove is the Best

We love Sandy Clove! It's cute, clean, well-appointed and VERY CLOSE TO THE Mac Kerricher State Park beaches. I mean a 5-minute walk close. We stay there every time we go to Fort Bragg, which is as often as possible. The owner is very nice and responds to questions immediately.

Great Location

We love staying in this comfortable cottage. We come with our kayak group and many of them camp in Mckerricer and this cottage is almost inside the state park. Very close to the beach and a beautiful coastal bike trail. The home is clean and has everything you need for a great vacation stay. We've stayed here multiple times and will be coming back in the future.
