Irish Beach Rental
Definitely an older home and smaller than I anticipated from the photos and descriptions. The host was responsive at first about early check in, but when I tried to ask about getting use to the washer and dryer there was NO response at all. The wood burning stove in the living room didn't put much heat out and not great ventilation so it was smokey smelling at times. Location was nice and close to Irish Beach but about 10 mins to the nearest grocery store in either direction and about 20-25 mins from Point Arena. If you want a small cottage with a little ocean view this was a good spot. It did have a pretty well equipped kitchen

Very dirty
This place was dirty dirty. There was trash still in the bins from whoever stayed before us, and the Kurig had old stagnant water in it from who knows how long, complete with an old used K-cup still in the machine. There is dog hair on everything, like, everything everything. Globs of it under the beds. There is no heating in the house, and you’re given 1 bundle of wood when you check in to get you started. There’s no kindling, no tinder. Just a cold dark house, three logs, and half a box of matches. It took two hours to get a fire going the first night. There are space heaters, but most of them are half melted and we were afraid to leave them on at night. In the bedroom off the living room we never could get the lights on. So half the lights in the house just don’t work. The bathroom tub is stained yellow on the walls, it looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in a while. There was a massive spider living in the master shower, so that clearly hadn’t been turned on or cleaned in a while. All of the “clean” dishes in the cupboards are full of water, I’m not sure why. So everything had to be cleaned twice. The utensils are old melted plastic, so if you stay here I recommend bringing your own pan and spatula at least. I’d also recommend bringing your own pillow as the ones here are useless they’re so worn. There’s no lint trap in the dryer, but there’s plenty of lint built up. That’s how we finally got the fire going, so I guess there’s that. The fire place looked like it had never been cleaned out. There was so much old ash the vent was completely clogged up and blocked. We cleaned it out, because that’s a fire hazard for the house. Over all, the house gets one star for the hot tub and the view. Other than that, I would recommend the area, and staying anywhere else.

Private beach access
Pros: We loved the private beach access. It was so convenient. A few times we went down there, we were the only car in the lot. The hot tub was amazing with the view of the ocean. The house fit our group great. Cons: There is a major ant problem that needs to be handled. We had to deal with it multiple times a day. The beds and bathrooms were clean but the carpets had dog hair everywhere. It’s not ideal at all to stay here for a week without being able to wash and dry clothes. The towels and our bathing suits were hard to work with without a dryer.

Great spot and comfortable
Nice house, comfortable, quiet, nice beds, well equipped kitchen, hot tub, lots to like. Now why it didn’t get 5 stars. A bit pricey, especially after all the fees. It needs a dryer, this is the north coast, your swimsuits and towels are not going dry out. So I recommend bringing extras. Bathrooms are small. You need to bring or buy firewood and charcoal. Better yet, put a gas grill on the deck, every other half decent rental house has one.

Perfect family get away
We escaped the valley heat to enjoy a lovely 55 degrees in a cozy, well equipped beach bungalow. Plenty of space for 4 teens, two adults and even the dog! The hot tub was just right, the space was inviting for all to gather and play games. The only negative was the next door neighbor was building with a generator thru the weekend, obviously owners can’t help that! We will be back.
