We have thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dragonfly Cottage. Three nights was not a long enough stay, so we plan to return.

We appreciate the care with which the cottage has been designed. You seemed to have thought of everything to make visitors not only feel comfortable and at home – but also pampered at the same time. The views are unparalleled, and we enjoyed sitting on the bluff and taking them in at sunset. Thank you for your gracious hospitality. Your beautiful home, property and cottage and you – will remain with us for a long time. (At least until we can return for more great memories). Be well and keep in touch.

What Our Guests Say

From the moment we pulled up to the gate and it opened, we have been enchanted with Dragonfly Cottage, your property, and the surrounding area. Your graciousness and hospitality are unsurpassed, the views are spectacular both on and off the property, the natural world surrounding you is stupendous and awe-inspiring, and the quiet and serenity are a complete respite from our hectic urban world. The cottage is graced with thoughtful personal touches that create a more than comfortable home away from home. We look forward to our next visit. Thank you so much!

What a magnificent estate! Incredibly beautiful, secluded, and quiet. The perfect place to relax and prepare for our conference presentation in Eureka. We had a great time exploring Fern Canyon and other areas, and enjoyed seeing wildlife in your neighborhood – deer, raccoons, seals, even a whale breaching at sea! And, of course, nice cool weather instead of the dry heat of L.A. Thank you for everything – You are a very gracious hostess. Until next time.

We had a wonderful stay here at your cottage! This was our first trip to the northern coast of California and we enjoyed hiking in the redwoods, exploring the area and relaxing at the cottage -----and enjoying the beautiful view of the Pacific!

We had a very comfortable stay and appreciated all the warm touches at the cottage. We are thankful for the opportunity to experience this corner of the world and would love to come back someday!

Thank you for creating this incredible get-away cottage. We came here for a mini family vacation – our 3 days here were such a gift. The cares of the real world immediately fell away as we were all enveloped in the beauty and serenity of this special place. The views are indescribably beautiful and the little touches you included made us feel so welcomed and pampered!

Although wishing we could stay, we leave feeling peaceful and rejuvenated. We look forward to many return visits!

P.S. Meeting you and seeing the oasis you have created here was a wonderful bonus. Thanks again for everything.

Gary and I have felt so welcome and our kids have enjoyed joining us at your wonderful cottage. The views and night sky were revitatalizing to us – a world away from life in L.A. Thanks for sending us to Larrupin’s for dinner. Our meal was wonderful and the décor charming. A very relaxed setting. We hope to return. All the best.
