About

Guest reserving home must be 25 years or older, be staying at the property the entire time and will be considered the responsible party for this booking. Sorry but this is not a pet friendly home, no exceptions. *

Moonstone Beach Retreat, perched above beautiful Moonstone Beach is perfect for 2 couples, close friends or a small family looking for a relaxing beach getaway. Endless seascapes & mesmerizing sunset views just a few minutes walk down to the beach! The friendly owner has private quarters below with a separate entrance downstairs. She keeps to herself when visiting and respects guests' privacy. The endless views of Clam Beach and Little River combined with the proximity to Moonstone Beach make this home a great spot for exploring the North Coast. Moonstone Beach is a local family favorite beach that is best known for great surfing, kayaking and fun exploring with rocks to climb, tide pools, sea caves and pristine sand. Running and fitness enthusiasts will love taking the downhill stroll to Moonstone beach, crossing Little River and walking or running for miles on Clam Beach. On a low tide walking north on the beach will lead all the way to Camel Rock, a popular surf spot. After a day of exploring the Redwoods and beaches guests will love sitting on the South facing deck soaking up sunset views.

The open floor plan is spacious and bathed in natural light from the unadorned windows. This beach house is decorated with a mix of modern and vintage decor that creates a comfy vibe with a large contemporary sectional sofa plus 3 old fashioned rocking chairs perfect for lounging and enjoying movies on the large Smart TV. The open living room feels like a solarium with expansive windows without coverings that allow the outdoor views inside. The newly remodeled kitchen is fully equipped for all of your culinary and entertainment needs. The propane bbq is located on the deck just off the kitchen for easy grilling. This two bedroom, one bathroom home comfortably sleeps 4 adults and can accommodate 2 kids w/ twin rollaway beds. Each room has a queen bed and a fold out twin. The bathroom has a combination tub/shower. The full sized washer and dryer are conveniently located in the hall closet. Convenient parking in the driveway allows for two to three cars.

Moonstone Beach Retreat is located off of Scenic Drive running just below Hwy. 101 so this home is easy to access but may have some road noise along with the sounds of the sea. Drive less than three miles away from the seaside village of Trinidad which offers a full service grocery, restaurants, a wine tasting room, cafe, art gallery, museum, pier and pristine beaches. Explore nearby Trinidad Head's 45 minute loop trail with spectacular panoramic ocean views. Patrick's Point State Park just 5 miles North of Trinidad offers a plethora of outdoor activities such as hunting for agates, exploring tide pools, and hiking the majestic Elk Head Trail. Take a scenic 40 minute drive North to explore the majestic Redwood National and State Parks.

We really enjoyed our stay here...the location was great for our travels to Redwoods, Lost Coast and exploring beaches and parks. The house was beautiful, comfortable, and clean with a great kitchen and many games to enjoy. We would recommend the place to others and we loved our stay.

This house truely is a retreat!! My family stayed for four nights (2 adults and three kids) and it was just great. We loved the huge sectional to enjoy the incredible view and for playing games and reading! Perfect location if you are visiting Redwoods parks. The house was immaculately clean. Lots of fresh towels and bedding. Super well appointed kitchen. They had everything one needs. Huge pantry area. My kids loved the swinging chair inside... a few naps were taken there too! Easy, quick drive from the airport. We have already been telling friends and family we know the perfects place to stay, should they venture out to the west coast! Thanks so much for a great vacation!

The house was nice and roomy with comfortable beds. The kitchen was well appointed with newer appliances. The location was great for visiting the state redwood parks. And the property managers were very responsive to my requests. My only problem was I had hundreds of ants on the kitchen island. I never figured out where they were coming from but even with the ant traps and spray that the property managers provided, I couldn't get rid of them totally even though I didn't eat nor have food in the house. I think the property would benefit from a professional pest control treatment.

A great house with beautiful windows along the entire front of the house, open to nature and sunshine! We had gorgeous fall weather during our stay and our family lives close by so was a perfect spot for us to come together for walks and play at the beach, suppers and card games! Remodeled kitchen and open areas bright and clean as was the bathroom! I’m always thinking of a night light in rentals and that was perhaps the only thing missing! Management was excellent with our few requests, no loud traffic issues noted and both bedrooms have blackout curtains and blinds, very comfortable beds!

We had a wonderful time staying here. The kitchen was well stocked, the beds were comfy and the view was spectacular. We were not at all. Othered by traffic noise, either during the day or at night. You can walk to the beach or to the delicious restaurant just down the hill, and you can see the ocean (or the fog) just by looking out the many living room windows. We also really enjoyed putting together the many puzzles they had on offer. We would definitely stay here again.

Pleasant kitchen area. Shower good. On Noisy road and steep hill, not easily accessible. In need of upgrades: dreary drapes, peeling deck paint, chipped dishes. Adequate but there a probably better choices. Multiple fees annoying.

We are sorry you had a mixed experience at Moonstone Beach Retreat.

We do have property managers available for assistance at any point in the stay.

We pride ourselves on our customer service and for managing boutique style houses that have beautiful ocean views!

We hope that we will be able to host you again in the future and show you a five star stay.

Immaculate rental! Nicely equipped kitchen. Good natural lighting, which was important to us as we planned to paint and scrapbook.
The ocean view is possible from one side of living room. This was a bit disappointing to us at first. However, the central location was a real plus! Easy to zip into Trinidad, get on freeway to Eureka, and The Moonstone Grill was right down the street from us. One evening, I had the PERFECT meal which we enjoyed with champagne. Make a reservation.
Also, Trinidad Retreats was a delight to work with, answering our questions quickly and fully.

The location is hard to beat, I am glad you were able to enjoy one of the local's favorite restaurants and thank you for listing that a reservation is recommended!

This house was lovely. Modern, with good kitchen and spacious living quarters. A view to die for. I spent most of my time at the house sitting on the deck with a beer and my computer. Then near sunset my wife and I would drive one minute down to the beach, which was beautiful. The house was about half an hour from stunning redwoods, which we visited every day. Found Katy's smoked fish in Trinidad near the end of our stay. And we had no problems with the noise from the street (we always have a bit of white noise going when we sleep). Would definitely come back.

This is a house that is newer to our cache of houses!

We are always glad when we get positive feedback for a rental new to the market!

We have a high standard for houses we bring on board because we want all guest experiences to be like yours!

We look forward to hosting you again next time you are in Humboldt!

We had a great month's stay at Moonstone Beach Retreat. The house was clean, very spacious, & beds comfortable, but the best part of staying there was the phenomenal view of Clam Beach & Little River. The house is very close to Hwy 101, but traffic noise wasn't much of an issue for us. We prepared most of our meals at the house. The kitchen was great but would suggest adding some measuring spoons & a set of measuring cups, plus a tea kettle. The house was centrally located for all our Humboldt County explorations. We went as far south as Ferndale & as far north as Redwoods National Park. Loved the views & our hike in Lost Coast Preserve near Centerville Beach, west of Ferndale. Explored Humboldt Botanical Gardens by College of the Redwoods, plus drove thru the farmlands of Ferndale, also to the South Jetty, & the Eureka Marina. Beach combed Mad River Beach(found lots of sand dollars), Clam Beach, Moonstone Beach(walking distance to the rental house),& Luffenholz Beach & Houda Point(also walking distance to the house). Walked the Rim Trail at Patrick's Point St Pk & the Trillium Falls Trail at Prairie Creek Redwoods St Pk, plus other trails in Redwoods Ntl Pk. Loved staying at Moonstone Beach Retreat!!!

The house had a nice view and was an easy walk to the beach. Unfortunately, it is located on a well-traveled street and is literally 100 feet from the freeway. Noise from passing traffic was considerable day and night, and overpowered the sound of the surf most of the time. Headlights from passing traffic were visible all night in both bedrooms (no window coverings on the windows facing the road). the neighbors’ outside lighting burned into the main living area and one of the bedrooms from dusk to dawn. The window covering in the bedroom was inadequate to block out the light. The hosts were non-responsive when asked if there were something that could be done about the lights. No response of any kind.
Bring earplugs and eyeshades if you stay here.
