Our stay at Abalone Cove was nothing short of incredible. My parents were visiting from South Africa where they are used to beautiful natural vistas and stunning getaways and even they were floored by the serenity and beauty of this place. Thank you very much for sharing your home with us, Melanie. We'll definitely be back.
p.s.: Apologies for taking so long to submit a comment but it goes to show I never forgot the experience!

This is a great home for a family vacation. We
enjoyed playing games, kayaking, canoeing, and
just relaxing. The views of the river are beautiful
and serene. We watched seals playing in the river
under the bridge upstream one evening. We took a
couple of day trips as well. There is so much to see
in this part of California. Really a wonderful
vacation!

Review Submitted: May 13, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
We had a wonderful Mother's Day weekend! The house was quaint, cozy, comfortable, and our stay was relaxing and peaceful. We felt like we were at home. The view out the dining room and kitchen of the backyard, trees, and river was beautiful! The first thing the kids did when we walked in the house was to light a fire in the living room fireplace. We spent a lot of time on the deck and in the backyard. The cottage was perfect for Roger's parents since it was on the main level and they didn't have to use stairs. The view from the master bedroom upstairs was wonderful, and the room was very spacious. We ate all our meals at the house except for dinner one night. We went to the Village Inn in Monte Rio which was wonderful. During the day we spent time on the river close to the bridge at Monte Rio, and we went to the ocean a couple of times which is only a short distance from the house, approximately 4 miles. We will have great memories of our Mother's Day weekend at Abalone Cove and we will definitely be back.
