We weren’t sure exactly where our adventures would take us, and needed to add a last minute stop along our route. Found they had an open cabin and they included breakfast so we booked it. More space than we needed, since it was just the two of us, but the cabin we had would have been perfect spot for our whole family. It had 2 bedrooms (with one king and 2 queens in the other), one full bath, nice kitchen and living room. Breakfast was modest but nice that it was delivered to the cabin night before. Lots of dvds to borrow at check in. 

Last minute stop 

We loved this place! My adult daughter and I visited last weekend for two nights and wish we would have stayed longer. As others have written, this is an ideal base for exploring redwood country. Our cabin was super clean and comfortable, the breakfast delivery saved us a trip into town in the mornings, and the grounds are beautiful with spring foliage. You can't see the ocean across the road but you can hear the sea lions barking, which is really neat. We will be back and sending our friends.

View Crest Lodge is a FIND

We stayed here in November of 22 and were back in April of 23. This time we stayed in 7A the other side of the duplex studio. The rooms have been refreshed with new flooring and decor and are comfortable and well equipped. 7a has an ocean view and you can hear the sea lions barking. There is no shore access here so you can not see them. The staff is exceptional, as is the value. It is a drive to everything but other than a bit of road noise it is very peaceful. We ate out on the deck most evenings and enjoyed the sunsets.

Even better than last time

Nice place with very helpful staff in perfect location to explore the redwoods and beautiful beaches nearby. The cabins are a little tired, but are pretty clean and comfortable. The gas fire was great to have. It was a nice touch to offer a breakfast 'hamper' delivery but the contents were not really worth having (just some snack bars) Would be better to offer a chargeable option of say bacon, eggs, bread and fruit juice so you can cook without a trip to the nearest shops a few miles away. Laundry room on-site a good price (coin operated) and clean & tidy. Would stay here again.

Nice Cabins and great location for Redwood forests and beaches

We checked into VCL on a cold and wet day and were extremely pleasantly relieved to find our cabin was cozy, warm, and exactly as pictured on the website.  We stayed in a "small family cottage" that really had all the amenities we needed, including some that were just nice perks (free breakfast every day, a huge array of DVDs and games to use during our stay, just for a couple examples).  We made use of the on-site washer/dryer (soap and dryer sheets were included, but machines were coin-operated).  The front desk staff was beyond compare--everyone courteous and helpful.  I managed to leave an important book behind and the person at the front desk took it to the post office the day I realized it was gone and mailed it to me, sending me the tracking information to figure out when I could expect it back--truly above and beyond.     Beds were comfortable, the property was very quiet, and VCL was conveniently located close not just to the restaurants/hub of Trinidad but also a completely reasonable drive to the national parks.

Impressive Perk-Filled Stay

Our cabin was comfortable, super clean and ideally located for exploring the redwood groves and gorgeous coastline.  We were worried as we had done no advance planning for our trip and the "tonier" B&Bs were either closed or fully booked. We had never stayed in a cabin before.  The accommodation was better than basic, and the young woman running the lodge was super friendly and helpful.  We only used the kitchen for breakfast, and it was handy to have.  The lodge provides basics such as instant oatmeal, milk, English Muffins, etc,, via a check-off sheet you drop at the office each afternoon for the next day. Nothing fancy, but it worked.

Great base for exploring  the redwood groves

Our cottage was spacious. The bathroom had a large shower and adequate counter space for toiletries. The cottage had a full kitchen and huge TV. The second queen bed was in a separate room. There was an initial mixup by staff about our reservation, but they recognized the error and quickly corrected it. We would definitely stay here again.

Spacious and comfortable

We enjoyed 10 nights at this great location. We found new trails most days, most within a half hour drive. This was the perfect location for us, peaceful and private. There are no services or trails within walking distance so be prepared to drive. Patrick’s Point Drive south is rough but passable, if you are uncomfortable with rough roads, you can always come from the north. Sue Meg state park is minutes away with awesome trails, Redwood state park is less than a half hour north, watch for Elk not necessarily where the signs say. Our farthest day trip was Humboldt Bay National Wildlife refuge which was around 50 minutes.
We stayed in a King Studio, which was part of a duplex cabin. We were in 7B which had a semiprivate deck with a slightly obscured ocean view and a nicely landscaped, private patio area. The walls are well insulated, and we never heard people talking, although you could hear some people walking around. The cabins are clean, well maintained and will equipped with dinnerware, wine glasses and cutlery. The have lots of fluffy towels and soft, comfortable bedding. The bathroom was large with a huge walking shower.
They have a BBQ area with 2 good quality BBQ’s and a view. They also have a very clean laundry room with a washer and dryer.
The staff is very friendly, and they also delivered breakfast every evening. Your choices included bagels, English muffins, hot or cold cereal and granola. Also, juice, milk and Keurig coffee. They do not provide daily housekeeping but will deliver linens on request.
We will definitely return.

Perfect Base Camp

We travel with 5 couples, so to find a place to accommodate us is difficult.  View crest was great. A good option to be in an area with nature all around. Cabins are very clean, up to date but not over done. Great place to act as a home base while seeing the area.

What a treasure

We spent 2 nights in room 7a. The room is large and appears to be recently redone. We had a nice deck facing the ocean, though a small view between the trees. The room was very quiet even though it had a shared wall and was down near the road. You pre-order breakfast and it is delivered about 8:00pm. We had a fridge, small sink, Kurig machine, and a microwave. The bed was very comfortable. Our hosts, I think the owners were very nice. View Crest is close to Sue-Meg Park and Big lagoon but is a little bit far from Trinidad. The drive into Trinidad for dinner is short enough to make staying at View Crest a great option. We are already planning a return trip to the area and will be staying at View crest again.
