Cool Off on California's North Coast

A North Coast California vacation rental makes the perfect home away from home for exploring this beautiful part of California. Popular North Coast accommodations include Clear Lake, Mendocino, Bodega Bay, Dillon Beach, The Sea Ranch, Trinidad, and Shelter Cove.

From the rugged coastline north of San Francisco to the majestic redwood forests along the Oregon border, California's North Coast is a vacation paradise. Mendocino vacation rentals are perfect for enjoying the beautiful beaches and picturesque coastal towns of this area. Activities for guests of Mendocino vacation rentals include hiking, fishing, visiting wineries, shopping, and browsing art galleries.

Clear Lake vacation rentals are located just 90 minutes northwest of Sacramento and 90 minutes northeast of San Francisco. A Clear Lake vacation rental makes a great base for enjoying fishing, boating, sailing, water skiing, swimming, jet skiing, wakeboarding, and kneeboarding on California's largest natural freshwater lake. Popular recreational areas for guests of Clear Lake condos and vacation rentals include Austin Park, Redbud Park, and Highlands Park.

You’ll find several Bodega Bay vacation rentals near the area’s wineries. If varietals isn’t your thing, browse the galleries and shops. Or play golf on more than a dozen area courses, including the Bodega Harbour Golf Links, a Scottish links style course designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. Or cool off in the ocean. Popular beaches include Salmon Creek, Portuguese Beach, and Goat Rock, a great spot for kayaking.

You're sure to find the perfect California North Coast vacation rental. Reserve your Northern California vacation rental home today!
