If you're looking for an adventure-filled family vacation, there are few better places than the redwood forests surrounding this home. The towering trees, nearby rivers, and abundant wildlife provide endless opportunities for exploration and adventure with your children.

During the day, you could take your kids on hikes through the forest, exploring the winding trails that weave through the towering redwoods. Along the way, you might come across hidden streams, waterfalls, and wildlife.

If your children are feeling adventurous, you could also plan a day of rock climbing or zip lining through the forest canopy. These thrilling activities are a great way to get your heart pumping while experiencing the beauty of the redwood forest from a new perspective.

When it comes to family time at the house, you could spend evenings gathered around custom made redwood table on the deck enjoying a meal and telling stories. You could also play board games, puzzles, and other activities to keep everyone entertained during downtime. Alternatively, you could just sit and enjoy each other's company, soaking up the peace and tranquility of the forest.

At night, you could tuck your children into their cozy beds and let the quiet of the forest lull them to sleep. This house also features a hot tub, making it the perfect place to relax and let go of all your stress and worries. The hot tub is located off the back deck, where you can enjoy the forest while taking a soak. Please keep in mind that the hot tub closes at 10pm to respect our quiet neighborhood.

A family vacation in the redwood forest offers the perfect blend of adventure, nature, and quality family time. Your children will come away with memories that will last a lifetime, and you'll have the chance to bond and connect with them in a truly special setting.

There is plenty of space for three cars in our parking spots front of the home. The road to the home is very narrow, so drive carefully and be mindful of neighbors.

Our cohost lives just minutes away and is able to assist with anything you need. You will have access to the house and self check in, if you prefer to not interact in person. We are here to help with whatever you need!

While this home is set up for a medium to large group (up to 8 adults), this is not a party house. The home is located in the middle of a tightknit community and we ask that all guests be respectful of their surroundings.

Also, the access to the bunk room is THROUGH one of the queen bedrooms. So privacy is somewhat limited for guests sleeping in that queen bedroom.

This house is in the middle of a redwood forest. Redwood trees are notorious for constantly dropping branches, fronds and seedpods. As such, the deck and yard will likely have these materials strewn about even if the house was just cleaned. Also, because it is a forest, the terrain can be rough in the backyard and may not be suitable for children who are prone to injury. Please keep an eye on your children while outside.
