To be honest, this place is very remote and the country roads in and out take some adjusting. But, the views are spectacular! And, once you settle into a back-to-nature mindset, the Lost Coast is an amazing place to visit with family.
The cottage is beautiful and comfortable and the hosts Gina and Jack are super attentive and accommodating! Our family spent time on the beach, the tide-pools and two days swimming on the Mattole River (which turned out to be everyone's favorite). We even took a day trip to the Redwoods. We would highly recommend a stay at the lost cottage for restorative family time in a beautiful setting!
