About

Ocean Dreams, with three bedrooms (3 kings), and 2 full baths and 1 half bath is suitable for up to six people in total comfort. Enjoy the cozy living room in front of the gas fireplace and large picture windows for views out over the cove, the ocean, and the Point Cabrillo lighthouse. The formal dining room has its own view windows with open space to the large kitchen with all the necessities.

Take a walk through the pleasant neighborhood (it's just a half-mile to Caspar Beach). Get sand between your toes and watch the waves wash into the shore. On top of that, the little country store at the beach rents paddleboards, surfboards, kayaks, and more.

The deck offers views of the ocean and lighthouse at any time of the day, of course, but it's the favorite spot for many in the evening. It's hard to beat the combination of a nice wine and a lovely sunset.... To see all photos and details visit our website. Please note: Children under the age of 10 years are not permitted due to close proximity to the bluffs.

Although Ocean Dreams is pet friendly, please note that it is limited to dogs only with a maximum number of no more than 1 and must be under 40 lbs.

We were actually supposed to stay at a house down the street from Ocean Dreams, but due to a malfunctioning water heater, Cindy from Mendocino Preferred Vacation Rentals called and said we could stay at Ocean Dreams instead. We really appreciate Cindy finding us this alternative; it turned out great for us. A nice, comfortable home which was clean and modern, we would like to stay at Ocean Dreams again.

Excited to make our annual Fall trip to Ocean Dreams with friends. Always appreciate the fabulous kitchen amenities (Chef in our group) and added surprise to find a new living room set! Everyone was comfortable both inside and out on the deck. The weather treated us well and the clear night sky was amazing for star gazing. The hot tub worked wonders after a hike along the cliffs to the Light House and back, as well as recovery from a night of live music at ****'s, Downtown Mendo., to see Pazifico.
Delighted to find an old fashioned stove top popcorn popper for movie night, but couldn't find a light weight bowl to pass around - the only disappointment. Can't wait to return!

We had another nice week in this rental on the coast. We have stayed here multiple times and more of my reviews are likely below. The location is great for views and for getting to both Mendocino and Ft Bragg, as well as the surrounding areas. The owners have continued to make improvements. The most recent is during the last year they upgraded an old master bath with all new shower, sinks, etc. There are now two showers in the house instead of one!
House is always very clean. Mendo Preferred continues to be excellent in their interactions and management of the rental.

Have stayed in this property at least 6 times over the last few years. In earlier reviews had complained about furniture in living room by new owners. Well, I want to acknowledge that they were responsive to us and others. They have put 2 new chairs in living room, similar to those in photos. They also have two new sofas to replace older, lower sofas that were there. Very much appreciated!! The living room is now much more comfortable and allows for enjoyment of the GREAT oceans views! Also believe they have added toppers or new mattress to Master bed--it felt more comfortable.
This house has a lot to offer and great location.

As usual Mendo Preferred and their team did a Great Job! Always a pleasure to deal with.

The house was beautiful. The view was stunning. The hot tub was divine. The baby deer frolicking in the back yard were darling. The kitchen was better stocked than my own. The beds were comfortable and large. I would absolutely book this house again. The only minor issue is that it is in a cellphone dead zone. We had 3 different networks and none of them worked. No calls or texts in or out. All of our phones were completely useless. Which in a weird way was nice. Unless there was an emergency. The house did have dependable WiFi though, so we communicate with others via email and zoom.

This was our third time at this house. We loved it the first 2 times. The view is just gorgeous and the kitchen modern and deck and hot tub very nice. Location is ideal, close to Mendocino but also to Fort Bragg.
But the new owners have really stripped the place of any character. The couches in the living room which they promised to replace are totally soggy and uncomfortable. There's no decoration or warmth in the room. The back bathrooms need to be remodeled. One is partially remodeled but the only shower in the house is old and unpleasant. The back bathroom is a dinosaur and has terrible lighting and no shower. Bathrooms need to be brought up to date especially as the price almost doubled. We were disappointed this time. I don't know that we will be back. We hoped for some improvements.

Very comfortable home with a great view. Kitchen is well appointed except a kurig.

Master bath needs some serious love as it's obviously original. Interesting the water signs but nothing is low flow. Note there is 3 bathrooms but only 1 shower and 1 soaking bath tub in the master. Hot tub is lovely.

Have stayed in this house several times, so you can also review earlier entries. House is great for 2. Still only one shower. Kitchen very good. Spaces showing some wear in and out, but very clean. Per my last review, we would like to see chairs returned to living room before property sold. Two sofas just not best for such great living room. Mendocino Preferred are still A1 and very professional and a joy to work with.

We really enjoyed our stay at Ocean Dreams. The view is fantastic. The kitchen is very well equipped. We would have preferred a shower in the master bathroom and a blackout shade in the bedrooms - the lighthouse is bright. Night masks are very helpful for light sleepers. The neighborhood is nice and quiet. We would happily return.

This was our sixth time renting this property for a week at a time. We continue to enjoy the location directly on the ocean and overlooking the Pt. Cabrillo Lighthouse property. From the small residential area it is possible to walk 2 miles of trails along ocean cliffs on the Lighthouse property.
The house has a nice kitchen, one full bath, and one half bath that have been remodeled. Other bath has not so only one shower in house. House sold this past year and new owners have elected to remove chairs from living room (leaving only 2 sofas that are VERY low, somewhat uncomfortable, and DIFFICULT to get out of. Also, when chairs were there, they overlooked wonderful ocean view. Now neither sofa looks out at ocean and in fact one blocks view by being in front of window, BUT facing blank wall and front door. (Pictures on rental site currently not correct for living room)This living room change greatly decreased comfort of that room from our previous stays. Three nice bedrooms
Mendocino Preferred continues to provide EXCELLENT and very professional services throughout the process. Cleaning and maintenance very good.

Which is what you are paying for and it’s breathtaking! Kitchen is awesome. Living room very nice albeit for the sofas that are hard to maneuver...difficult to get up once you’re down :(. BAthrooms need remodeling...one shower for a home that sleeps six is not enough, although fine for the two of us. Very comfortable otherwise and a wonderful place to relax!

Had a very enjoyable experience at the house. It was perfectly clean when we arrived. The living room and kitchen at this home are 10/10. The appliances are all the best of the best, and the kitchen is fully stocked. There is nothing missing! Staff at Mendocino Preferred was great, and responsive. The bedrooms and bathrooms are not brand-new, but the pictures clearly showed this, so it did not detract from our experience at all. Would definitely recommend a stay!

Overall, we enjoyed our stay at this house. But we did encounter a few issues. The hot tub water jets didn't seem to work and one night the the water temperature became too cold for us to enjoy soaking in it. We also couldn't find a toaster and the living room furniture was low and soft, a bit hard to get in and out of. The doors to the exterior patio were hard to open and close and seemed to require lubrication. But the bottom line is that if we return to Mendocino, we would be happy to rent this house again.

My family spent 9 nights over Christmas at Ocean Dreams. The house and view are magnificent. The house is between Mendocino and Ft. Bragg, making it very convenient to stores. Hiking trails are close by for nice walks.

The kitchen was our gathering place where we could all cook. Outstanding kitchen.

I would recommend that the owners install a shade in the master bedroom, as it faces the ocean. The lighthouse light shines directly into the room during the night and afternoon.

Management is very responsive. We had a problem that was beyond anyone's control. Management responded as well as possible.

I will definitely return to Ocean Dreams - except this time I will stay longer.

Loved this home inside and out-modern, clean, and very comfortable living, sleeping, and spectacular ocean viewing. Two suggestions: Coffee maker was confusing, instructions or a pour over cone would have been helpful. Outdoor seating could be amazing to enjoy the view...consider a fire pit and a comfortable couch/seats closer to the clif-we were mesmerized by the view.

This property is amazing and we had a wonderful time. A lot of different opportunities to walk to locations near the home - we never used our car. The property management company communicated very well and there were a lot of instructions at the house. They are very serious about not leaving behind food so be prepared to bring everything if you are cooking - even items like salt and pepper. The kitchen was very well stocked with cooking items, plates and utensils. I was worried about the internet, but there were no problems - two of us were able to be on zoom at one time. We will be back!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Ocean Dreams. We have a few small suggestions but we found the house comfortable, the view fabulous and the location absolutely ideal for our needs. You can walk out the door and find a trail that leads to the bluffs. The lighthouse is a part of your every day experience. The deck was comfortable. There was a hot tub that needed servicing. Unclear whether it is even allowed during COIVD restrictions but we used it a couple of times. The bath fixtures in the main bedroom are very old and awkward to use. Some of the rooms had been nicely renovated with modern fixtures. The kitchen was redone and is a fun modern kitchen. We cooked in most of the time. We wish they had left some dishwashing pods for the dishwasher and a scrubber for the pots and pans. We bought all this for ourselves. It is a few minutes drive to the town of Mendocino. Super conventient. We will return here.

Manager's Response

Hello Brook, We are sorry the dishwasher pods were overlooked, however a quick call or email to our office and we would have delivered them ASAP. We are happy you found the house very clean and comfortable and that you enjoyed your stay!

What a wonderful place to stay. Mendocino preferred staff are always professional and friendly.
View is wonderful.
The house needs work. Almost every dish in the kitchen is chipped. There are a few household appliances that do not work. All of the shades are broken and in need of repair. Carpet stains are in need of a deep clean.....For the price one pays, this house needs some attention.

First of all, thank you for the poster recognizing our 50th wedding anniversary. Your home was clean and tastefully decorated. Beautiful view. Everything we needed was there. My small complaints were that the soap bottles in the bathroom and kitchen should be full; and, I think having shampoo and conditioner in the bathroom would help. Please inform guests to bring their own laundry detergent if they want to use the washer and dryer. There was none provided. But, the outside maintenance could have been better. The bench by the hot tub was only standing on three legs, the fourth leg was at an angel and ready to give in. If we had sat on it we would have ended up on the deck. The hose should have been rolled up and put away as it created a tripping hazard. The hot tub, which we were really looking forward to, should have been cleaner. It was very hard to get into without some kind of stepping down ladder. The deck needed repairs in spots which should be addressed before further damage occurs. Other than that, the house was immaculate and we had a comfortable stay. Location was easy to get to and loved the sound of the waves at night. Please fix the outdoor maintenance and your property would be complete in my book.

Manager's Response

Thank you very much for your review Linda, we're very glad you enjoyed your time at Ocean Dreams. For future reference, we have a page on our website titled 'About Your Stay' that lists all of the items we provide and which items we suggest bringing, but we apologize for the confusion. We have work scheduled now for repairs to the deck and outside that will be taking place immediately, so if you stay at Ocean Dreams again you will not need to worry about its condition. We will also pass on your feedback regarding the hot tub to the technician we contract with. Thanks again for letting us know about your experience and thank you for being a valued guest.

Beautiful home in a quiet neighborhood. Amaaaazing kitchen. Easy walk to private cove and wild headlands around the Lighthouse. In addition to the home, this was the unique and valuable part: location.

Great fenced in front yard for playing with your dog. Great walking area for dogs, as they are welcomed on the Lighthouse area trails and cove.

The master bath is obviously the last area to be updated but it is clean and functional. We appreciated this property management company for their accurate description and friendly support. This house was above and beyond what we expected!

Dog-friendly was a bonus (but when we walked in, we would have never known it. Totally clean). So with or without dog, great house!

Very nice vacation. The house's location allowed us to see whales spouting and a beautiful panorama of crashing surf. The house was a little unusual in that the kitchen is very modern with so many dishes and cupboards that it was a little confusing at first. We wished there was a little more room for socializing and relaxing. The living room was small, without a lot of chairs, and the TV is too high (above the fireplace). But we really enjoyed the views, and love the location.

The house is very comfortable, has a gourmet kitchen, and stunning views. The location is perfect both for oceanview and the close proximity to Mendocino and Ft. Bragg. The property management company was great to work with too. The fireplace was not operational while we were there and the property management did advise us of that ahead of time.

There are hiking trails near by and the light house. It has a large front yard a plenty of parking. It is becoming our home away from home for sure. There were just a couple things regarding the hot tub and the back slider door and hopefully they will be taken care of. Love this Home!

This home needs further updating. It only has one shower for the entire 3 bedroom home and it needs to be updated. The master bathroom is right out of the 70's. The wrap around deck needs to be repaired as well. Given the price, we would expect the bathrooms to match the rest of the home which obviously had been updated.

The location is close to Mendocino and Fort Bragg and walking distance to Caspar Beach. Our dogs loved the walks in the neighborhood to see the sea lions barking on the rocks. Deer visited the front and back yards along with a great blue heron. We will return and recommend to friends.

Loved staying at Ocean Dreams! The view and the space are exceptional. We will be staying her again. Out of all the pluses like the ocean view, the modern kitchen the cozy living space furniture, the front yard for our pups! there were just a couple things that may bother some, we got over them. Them Master Bed Bath only has a soaking tub and is very dated but clean and operational. The other thing is the light house beam comes into the rooms at night so close the curtains as tight as you can. It flashes every 8 seconds. I am a very light sleeper so this was just a little bit irritating, I had to sleep with my back away from the window. This does not happen if it is foggy :).

The house was very comfortable and the views amazing. The only thing that was disappointing was that there was only one shower. which for two was not a problem but odd for a house that size. We will probably stay here again.

We stayed at Ocean Dreams from 8/5-8/12. Beautiful views of the ocean and Cabrillo Lighthouse. We ate all of our meals in the home as the kitchen is well appointed. Bring extra paper towels! The hot tub was tricky getting in and out of, a hand bar on the post would help. We saw whales, a fox ran by the deck, lots of deer, and the gulls like bread! The hike to the lighthouse is about 1 mile - an easy hike. Beds were comfortable. Only draw back was 1 shower for 5 adults. We walked mostly at the Headlands (first left over the Noyo Harbor Bridge). We saw more whales and seals, deer, an Osprey with a fish, a bald eagle, and human animals. Very relaxing week and worth every dollar spent!

We are repeat Mendo Preferred renters but this was our first time in this home. I don't have many negatives. Great location in South Casper and the kitchen is stocked with everything you could need to prepare a meal (sans the food). We will definitely stay again!

And now for the few negatives:
3 king bedrooms, 3 baths but only 1 shower?
Master bath needs a shower!
We only used the Master Bedroom but it was extremely dusty. The bedspread was really dusty so we had to take it off the bed. My allergies were having a field day. The carpet in the part of the house that is carpeted (bedrooms), needs a serious cleaning. I believe through cleaning in a house that allows pets, is a must at least once or twice a year.

There is access to walking trails to the north and south with the trail to the South leading to the Point Cabrillo Lighthouse. The older members of our party spent their day sitting in the yard overlooking the ocean playing cards building puzzles and talking. We spent our day walking to the trails, using the Jacuzzi, reading and BBQing while watching the sunset. The house is well stocked and clean with plenty of room for the four of us. The location is minutes from Mendocino, home to many restaurants. In short, we loved this house.

The location is great, views are beautiful and the house is well appointed. It is very comfortable and can easily accommodate three couples. If you close the driveway gates, you have a large enclosed yard for dogs (as long as they don't jump off the cliff).
One minor issue: the spa tub in the master bath is relatively useless as the jets do not operate. It would be great if the owners would pull the tub and install a shower since there is only one shower in the house, which is tough when you have three couples sharing it.

I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Other than the single shower and the weakness of the internet signal, it was a near perfect stay.

A relaxing, private home that is away from the noise of HWY 1 but close enough to allow easy access. Enjoyed cooking in the well appointed kitchen. Great indoor and outdoor spaces to relax and watch the sunset after hiking. So, many hikes near by I could name them all here but we were able to visited the lighthouse without even getting in the car using a path from this nice little neighborhood.
We have used Mendocino Preferred for many years and as always the management team at was welcoming, courteous, and helpful.

My husband and I stayed at Ocean Dreams with our small dogs to celebrate his birthday. It was exactly what we had hoped for -- a restful break from hectic Bay Area life.

The property was immaculate and had everything you could want in a vacation rental. I enjoyed birthday baking in the gorgeous kitchen. The ocean front views are magical. Add to that the sound of the waves and the gentle turn of the lighthouse and it is truly a one-of-a-kind experience. The house is about 5 minutes to Mendocino and close to Ft. Bragg where we (finally, after many visits to the area) were able to take a ride on the Skunk Train.

For dog owners, know that there is no fenced in area and the backyard is literally cliff-side. This was not a challenge for us, but good to be aware of.

We'll definitely stay in this home again when we're back in Mendocino.

The house was lovely and the kitchen great. It fitted all our needs. However, I left a very expensive pair of pants in one of the bedrooms. I notified to office right away. They didn't respond so then I called. They said they would check with the cleaners. Then I received an email that said the pants weren't found. How can this be? I am very upset about this and probably would not deal with this company again.

Manager's Response

Hi Francine, thank you for the review. We're sorry we didn't have any luck tracking down your clothing, but please know we did everything we could, including checking the house several times and having our linen service go through everything to make sure they didn't get mixed in by mistake. We have a great housekeeping staff that is very thorough and we're puzzled about what might have happened to them as well. We're sorry it put a damper on your trip, but we're happy you did enjoy the home overall. If there is any way you feel we could've handled the situation better, please feel free to reach out to us via email or phone during business hours. We hope you know that we take our guest's satisfaction very seriously and give our best efforts to be as attending as possible. If you find yourself coming back to the area in the future, we hope you will consider staying with us again. Thank you for being our guest. -The Mendocino Preferred Team

Need another shower. Furniture was not comfortable for two senior citizens. May I suggest either recliners or chairs with stools instead of couch in front of TV. The reason I would not recommend this property to friends is because all my friends are senior citizens and would have same problem we had with furniture. My friend loved kitchen and gas stove. Lighting in some bedrooms for reading could also be improved.

We really enjoyed our stay at Ocean Dreams. The views are stunning. You can tell that the property is constantly being updated. The kitchen is really well equipped. It was interesting that even though there were 2.5 bathrooms, there was only 1 shower. The master bath should be the next update in the home with an installation of a shower. We would definitely stay here again. The property management company was a pleasure to work with and very accommodating.

Wonderful house. Very well laid out and the kitchen/dining room/living room are beautifully updated. And the view!!!! From the kitchen, living room and master bedroom is stunning!!! We saw a whale breach the first morning there while sitting in the living room. Nice deck for drinking morning coffee while taking it all in. Best rental I have ever had, and I had some good ones!

The kitchen was a chef's dream come true. But I'm not a chef and it took a few days to remember where I found things because there truly is everything you would ever want or need. The view was magnificent! It was really nice falling asleep to the sound of the waves rolling in. On the down side, I had trouble with the hot tub cover since the handle was broken. The management company sent the spa guy over immediately, but there was little he could do with the aging lid. But the view from the hot tub is great and worth fighting with the lid. The gas fireplace was a nice treat.

Manager's Response

Hello Giselle, we just wanted to let you know that we have a new spa lid on the way so if you decide to stay at Ocean Dreams again you can just relax and not hassle with the lid. We're so glad you had a nice time, thanks for staying with us.

I would highly recommend this vacation rental. You can't beat the beautiful location, and amazing view from most of this house. This was our second stay at Ocean Dreams. Our first stay I had a couple issues and dealt privately with Preferred, those issues were resolved for our second visit. We have rented through Mendo Preferred before and are very happy with them as well. By far my favorite rental so far and we have been renting homes in Mendocino for about 8 years now. Bluffs to hike on the beautiful Caspar beach a reasonable walk and 1 min drive. Can't say enough good about our stay. The house was spotless! Thank you to the owners for sharing this home.

This home was just beautiful with a lovely unobstructed view of the ocean. The kitchen was well appointed and we found ourselves cooking in more than we planned so we could just enjoy the view. Mendocino Preferred was wonderful to work with. Check in and check out was simple and painless. We notified them on the first day that the spa was not working. They had it repaired immediately. I asked if they knew where I could get a shower chair for my husband and someone in the office loaned us their personal one and delivered it!!
We would rent from them again without any hesitation. My husband is disabled. This is a perfect property and surrounding area for him. Great flat area and the beach is a short walk away. Great experience.

This is a beautiful home overlooking the cliffs on the ocean. It was peaceful and relaxing, and had a great kitchen to cook and enjoy meals. It's a short distance to Mendocino shopping- very convenient! We loved it!

The neighborhood is great and location is close to a trail which was a define plus.
The living room kitchen area was wonderful, however the rooms and bathrooms need some major renovation. Plus there was only one shower, the other bathroom had a tub and no shower so it was difficult to shower and we all had to take turns. There were also so many rules in the house (notes everywhere) which definitely didn't make you feel welcome. I also needed to do laundry as we had our baby with us but there was no laundry detergent.
There are no blinds so we woke up with the day light although we wanted to sleep in. Overall we loved the area but we would stay somewhere else next time around. We give it 3 stars over 5.

Manager's Response

Hello and thank you for the review. We’re sorry that you weren’t completely satisfied with the property and sincerely apologize for any inconveniences, but we appreciate that you took time to let us know about your experience. We want our guests to have the best stay possible so we take our feedback very seriously. We will also be passing on your issues with the bathrooms to the homeowners. We certainly don’t mean for the signs in the home to come across as unwelcoming, but they are necessary to help our guests become familiar with the features of the home and are intended solely for the convenience of our guests and the maintenance of the home. We do provide a washer and dryer for use, but we should make it clear that we do not provide detergent and are sorry for any confusion. Thank you for letting us know about the light from the window, we obviously want our guests to be as comfortable as possible and apologize the drapes weren’t sufficient in keeping the light out for you. We will address this as soon as possible. Thanks again for your feedback! -The Mendocino Preferred Team

The location/views are spectacular. The house is well-appointed and comfortable. We encountered a few minor problems. The hot tub did not work over the ten days we were there. The gas fireplace did not work for two of those days. The WiFi was intermittent and didn't reliably reach all parts of the house. Overall, it was a lovely stay.

Location is gorgeous. Views alone just make you happy. House is beautiful and area is peaceful. Main living areas are upgraded with a gourmet kitchen fully appointed. Two of the bathrooms have been upgraded. Needs one more shower which I'm sure they will be doing in future upgrades. All of the house is spacious and welcoming, clean with comfortable beds. So much good to say about it I can't get it all down here. We had a great time. Great walks along bluffs to the lighthouse. Favorite restaurants this trip were The Restaurant and Mendo Bistro both in Fort Bragg and the Flow in Mendocino, as well as the Caf & Bakery on Lansing In Mendocino. We had friends with us and plan to stay here again. Just a lovely place.

This was the perfect house for a relaxing weekend on the coast. The house was well stocked with kitchen utensils and appliances. The bedrooms were spacious and comfortable. The deck/backyard was perfect for our dog to have some time to run around. Overall we had a perfect weekend on the coast!
