Harbor Watch - World class views of the Pacific ocean and a short walk to the Noyo beach

Harbor Watch

NOTE: If you are bringing pet's , please let us know!
We do charge a fee of seventy five dollars per pet.

Looking for the perfect home base for your Mendocino Coast adventures? Look no further.

Rest easy at the Harbor Watch, a large-scale tiny home situated in the heart of Noyo Harbor, a historic and fully operational fishing harbor. At this vacation rental, you’re right on the water -- any closer, and you’d be swimming -- so you’ll have a front-row seat for our spectacular sunsets. It gives you the perfect vantage point to wave to passing fishing boats, keep an eye on the playful antics of frolicking seals, and listen to the lapping waters of the ocean. You’ll be the first to see any comings and goings, from curious wildlife to diving birds to resilient rowing teams.

Situated right on the pier, this recently renovated cabin offers the rustic charm of a fishing village bungalow coupled with a stellar list of amenities and easy access to the best destinations of the coast. There’s plenty to pique your interest wherever you go, with the harbor’s myriad attractions at your fingertips and the hidden gems of Fort Bragg and the Mendocino Coast just a short drive away. Check out the region’s great hiking trails through lush redwood forests or along the coast, elegant art galleries, charming shops, pristine beaches, or festive celebrations and events. Then treat yourself to a cone from the world-famous Cowlick’s Ice Cream or a pint from the award-winning North Coast Brewing Company.

You’re also just steps away from world-class restaurants that offer a variety of deftly crafted dinner options, many of which feature the bounty of the Pacific Ocean. Need to walk off a filling meal? Amble down the road to Noyo Harbor Beach and watch the waves splash over the breakwater before returning to the Harbor Watch to plan your next expedition.

If you prefer to cook your own meals, you’ll enjoy the fully-equipped kitchen. And if you want to get creative, you’ll find the best locally-sourced ingredients at nearby markets, from fresh-caught fish to grass-fed meat to tasty greens.

Looking for a quiet night in? Survey your domain from the upstairs loft, lounge in the living room downstairs, or park yourself in one of the chairs on the porch with your beverage of choice. Featuring splendid views, creature comforts, and great amenities, the Harbor Watch will keep you relaxed and refreshed throughout your time on the coast.

Even the seals need to rest sometimes (and in fact, you might spot them catching some Zs on the southern docks). When it’s time to call it a night, sink into your luxurious bed and dream big! The Mendocino Coast is your oyster.

NOTE: The ceilings in the loft are very low, about 4 feet high - very comfortable but just watch your head.

STUFF THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW

THIS RENTAL IS LOCATED IN AN RV PARK IN THE HARBOR

This rental is located in a classic, old school RV park that have been in the harbor for decades. I personally think that is adds to the rustic harbor experience but there are some who do not like being in an RV park. Please look through all of the photos on this rental so you can get an idea of what the park is like so you can make a personal determination if this is right for you .

IN THE HOUSE
The house binder on the kitchen counter has just about all the information you might possibly need and probably a little more. There are 2 Television sets in the home, one in the living room downstairs and another in the Beanbag room in the loft. The instructions for both TV's are in the binder towards the back for your convenience.

GARBAGE
There are garbage cans for the trailer park at the inside entrance to the park on the left side when looking back from the unit.

VEHICLES
There is room for one vehicle which can park directly beside the unit. If there is need for a second vehicle, please reach out to us so we can try to accommodate if possible. Since the parking is right beside the unit and there are other units close by, please try to be as quiet as possible early in the morning and late at night. Thank you !

PAY ATTENTION AND BE SAFE
Children must be supervised at all times on the wharf. No climbing on the railing at any time for both children and adults

Great spot! Clean… patio was great to hang and watch the boats and sea lions. So many places within walking distance. Everyone in each spot was so friendly. Quick response from host. Be sure to check spam folder for check-in directions as it does not come from VRBO.

Perfect Experience
Perfectly sized for a 'basecamp' that is near a lot of activities: beaches, kayaking, hikes etc. Being dog friendly was a big plus and its Noyo Harbor location provided an interesting look at a lot of the action of a working harbor. The locals are welcoming, friendly, chatty. Would do this again. Note: the boat horn/fog horn that goes off every 20-30 seconds does exist and becomes white noise. Didn't bother us, although I use noise masking earbuds because I am a light sleeper regardless, but it didn't affect anyone in my party.

Revisiting the area after a very long break.
Such a fantastic addition to this area. I lived here in 1977, was very young, but remember Noyo fondly. I do remember back in the day, it was a pretty rough-tough, and yes, smelly little fishing village. Still has that same charm, minus the smell. Still a working fishing operation, and these little houses fit into the vibe perfectly. Modern amenities without the modern look. Everything you need is here, and you have that view. Love it and will be back.

Perfect getaway to relax and unwind. Dog friendly location as well. Harbor View is wonderful!
Our first time in Fort Bragg. All that we were expecting was to relax and enjoy the property. It is a great location in Noyo Harbor. Plenty of restaurants to choose from around you. We plan to visit again!

Perfectly located weekend getaway
This property is great for a small family getaway. This was the perfect fit for my wife, daughter and family dog. The property features a great harbor ocean view. It is centrally located around great sea food restaurants. Great dining is only a short walk away. A plus for dog owners, there is a beach for dogs only a short walk away. Owners are great and very responsive. I’m sure to make a return soon!

Amazing spot!
We had such a great time here. You can’t beat the location- right on the water! Cozy little cabin with everything you need. A beach just minutes away by foot, restaurants surrounding you, and an amazing view with gorgeous sunsets. We saw seals, and caught a ton of crab!! We dropped our kayaks in the water just down the road, and visited all the fun tourist spots. Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved this place, the location is unbeatable! You walk out your door in the am to sea otters and seal to be seen right over the edge of the deck and in the evening the sunset is visible from the deck. The beach is a 4 minute walk, maybe 3 minutes. The state parks in the near vicinity are also stunning!
