Sunset Knoll - Big Summer Discount & Great Value Ocean Views, Pet Friendly!

* 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. This home IS pet friendly for a maximum of 2 dogs with pet fees. Dog must not be left unattended inside or outside of the home. It is perched on a very steep bluff. Please maintain a close watch on children and pets. *

Sunset Knoll is an older, dated home perfect for families traveling with dogs who want to enjoy incredible ocean views but who don't want to worry about staying in a fancy home. It truly offers incredible serenity, privacy and some of the best ocean views in Trinidad. Set up high on a bluff in the community of Baker Ranch, this home offers beautiful scenery of Baker Beach below. The back yard is grassy and expansive, great for barbecues and picnics or walk down to the meditation bench to sit and take it all in. Sunset Knoll is approximately a quarter mile walk downhill on Baker Beach Road to Scenic Drive where you can venture just a little farther (1 mile) and take a good hike down to Baker Beach. Upstairs is the main living room, small but complete kitchen & dining nook and master bedroom with queen bed and attached bathroom with a tub/shower. The living room is small but cozy when sitting by the wood burning stove gazing out at the sea. Downstairs has one bedroom with a queen bed and another bedroom with two twin beds plus a small bathroom with a stall shower. The house is comfortably furnished. The deck has a gas barbecue and small table and chairs. This pet friendly home includes a nice, large outdoor dog kennel. Sunset Knoll also includes: dishwasher, washer/dryer, flat-screen T.V. with plenty of channels, DVD/VCR, and stereo. FREE WiFi included.

Wonderful place!
What a magical place! The view from the back deck is one of the best I've ever seen in my life. House was very clean and comfortable. We hiked every day in the Redwood National Park and the park is only a short drive from the house. Would definitely recommend highly, and we hope to go back!

Spectacular Views!
The highlight of the property is the stunning view of the ocean. The location is great (near town, groceries, restaurants, beach, etc). And a great launching point for hiking. I would suggest considering replacing the carpets for hard floors, since pets are allowed, there's a scent on the carpet. Otherwise, the property is phenomenal.

View to die for.
What a great stay! Exactly as described and even better. I'm almost afraid to say how much we loved the property in fear that it will always be rented. (Haha). Great bed nice towels and plenty of storage space. I wish we could have stayed longer. My dogs were in Heven to be able to go with us. Can't wait till next year. Thank you.

Those parts of the house didn’t take away from our family’s experience though, sunsets were amazing and it felt nice relaxing there. I would definitely stay there again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were a party of 4. The house was nice but somewhat 60's. The view was beautiful....We felt somewhat disappointed by the late checkout time (4pm) and early checkout time (10am). We paid for 5 days but only got to fully enjoy 3.

It looks to have been built in the '90s and displays that type of charm. The closest neighbor was about 200 yards away so all you ever hear is the surf. We would definitely rent this place again!

Great location but the house is so-so
I give the property location and views a 10 out of 10. Unfortunately, the house itself is far from great. It seems that the house, bathrooms, kitchen, and furnishings haven't been updated in a very long time. The windows were dirty and detracted from the lovely views. I would be okay with the house if it was at a lower price point but at these prices I would hope for a little more care to be put into the place.

Great Vacation Getaway
Beautiful views of Trinidad Bay & Coastline, none better . Enjoyed by comfortable, clean , safe, house with a large back yard. Older home at very reasonable rental charge, well-equipped with everything you need , & everything works The host property manager Hope M. was excellent, friendly, helpful , & very responsive . The location was private,secluded, & close to the beach that you can hear the lovely surf. Everything was close by as well . Of note Murphys Market has everything including fishing license should you want to brave ocean fishing as you’re quickly catch your limit guided by the Best fisherman of Calif, ask for Mark ! We really appreciated that it was one few pet friendly houses Thank You and we will request to return to Sunset Knoll at Sunrise again

Spectacular view
The location was amazing, and everything was better than we expected. Our group even said it was nicer than the photos. Easy access to the national park, incredible view (when it's clear & sunny), private/secluded location, great for dogs to run around in the yard, very effective heating. Yes, the house looks like something out of the 70s or 80s and the furniture is dated, but overall the house is in good shape and well-equipped (we were able to cook breakfast & grill dinner for 5 without issue). My only complaint is: the amount of time I had to spend before check-in to sign contracts, get the charges right, read a myriad of emails, confirm the code, etc was *a lot* for ~40 hours in the house.

Fab View, Fab Place, Fun Times
I had read other reviews that this property had a great view, but it really was Amazing with a capital A. Fabulous deck to enjoy incredible sunsets and prepare great bbq dinners. House layout worked really well - 3 bedrooms for the 6 of us though there are 2 other spaces (loft) and pull out coach where 2 more people could sleep. We hiked down to Baker Beach about 1/4 mile below the property which was fun. The local town in Trinidad was fun with great restaurants, and lots of beaches, and places to rent kayaks. Also want to add in the backyard of the property facing the beach there is a picnic table which is a wonderful space to have your meals outside. Living area space worked great as did kitchen. All in all - Fab view, Fab Place, Fun times.

Words Can't Describe!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of four, along with our dog, loved everything about this vacation rental. We have stayed in three other rental homes in Trinidad. All of them were wonderful, but this location, by far, is our favorite. The views are indescribable. The home was clean, comfortable and well stocked with what we needed for a great week. The home was tucked away from the others in the neighborhood, which provided the peacefulness we were looking for. We will be back!

Views! Space! Plan Ahead for Coffee Shops
I did not think the online photos did the property justice. The space was roomier than I expected. There are views from every single window. The easy chair was comfortable, but noisy getting in and out of. Moonstone Grill is a must for dining! The town of Trinidad is quaint, adorable, and has many local artists! It's definitely a VRBO to bring my family back to in the future. Down side: It was not just in Trinidad, but almost every coffee shop we went to in northern California closed by 4:00 to 5:00. If I was late getting coffee for my afternoon crash, I was SOL. =D

Great location, layout and price carpet needed cleaning.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Terrific home. Carpets need cleaning and deodorizing. I manage 30 rentals and a small real estate office. This home was spotless accept for major pet stains. If the owner is unwilling to replace carpets at least clean them and use Odoban to kill the bacteria causing smells. It's a simple thing. We do not travel with our pets but those that do should pay to keep the asset clean and in good shape.
