Earth house holiday rentals in Northern California

Fred and Mary’s home was a peaceful getaway tucked amongst pink blossoming manzanita shrubs in the bud of spring and from their home, Mount Shasta seemed so close you could touch its peak. The way the sun cast its rays upon the mountain was one of the best scenes to enjoy for a slow, easy going morning. Easy to find, very clean and tidy, their home had a bright and cheerful feel. Fred was very personable and helpful! I would definitely stay at this sweet little cottage again.

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful oceanfront property! The location was stunning, with breathtaking views of ocean. Made a perfect getaway from all the hustle. Cindy was fantastic host, providing clear instructions and suggestions for nearby places, and ensuring our stay was seamless

In short, the Hobbit house was amazing. I do like to make note that there were various places with spider webs that were visually unpleasant, inbetween the door slider to the balcony, on the way to the little sauna-like room accessible in the bathroom of the main bedroom, or the fireplace that is clearly never used. These are nitpicks that dings a bit but nothing to undermine how great this place is. There are many special places I've stayed and this is one of the few that I would actually mean it when i say I'll be back.

They were responsive. Place was lovely. Surrounded by nature and quiet. Its a great place if you just want to get away for a bit.

This place is a gem. It's about 20 minutes off 101 on mostly well-graded gravel roads, in a beautiful, remote area. Nathan greeted me as I drove up and was super helpful. The yurt was down a well-maintained trail (lots of stairs), in it's own little private area near a stream. The yurt was spotless and extremely well provisioned. Thoughtful touches everywhere - including fluffy comforters, coffee beans and a grinder, and a small refrigerator. If you can handle the lack of indoor plumbing, and, like me, you enjoy being off the grid now and then, you'll be fine. The outdoor shower was large, clean, and awesome, I felt like a nymph bathing in the woods. And that's only the beginning - the property is really spectacular, especially the tree house. Bring a book and stay for the afternoon. Lots of deer and rabbits around; you can awaken to birdsong. After a couple of nights, I felt refreshed, rested, clear headed. I hope to be back.

This place was perfect for our family of 4 including two teenagers and a dog. They got own room and did whatever they wanted. We could relax and release our stress. I was able to sleep so well. We needed it especially last weekend. The house was really quiet, spacious and clean! Thank you.

What an amazing long weekend we had at Casa Tierra! The house is beautiful, the views even more so. The real highlight of the trip might be Bo though--I've never met a sweeter cat and we had a lot of fun petting him every time he showed up on our porch! The house is spacious, unique, and well-stocked (lots of games, kitchen tools, spare blankets, heaters for the bedrooms, shampoo, etc.) We appreciated the fire that was going before we arrived, and my daughter described her bath after a day of hiking as "the coziest EVER!" The driveway is long but Isabel's instructions and photos made it very easy to find. Our trip came with some unexpected adventures--a tree down across the driveway and a thunderstorm that knocked out the power, but Steve took care of the tree quickly and Isabel texted to tell us where to find lanterns and a lighter for the stove. Casa Tierra was the perfect home base for a fun weekend in Fort Bragg/Mendocino, and we will definitely stay here again in the future!

Incredible location/view, and the house is really beautiful, luxurious, and its obvious someone put a lot of thought and care into the craftsmanship of the small details. We really appreciated both the extra features like the pizza oven, sauna, hot-tub, etc., and the well equipped kitchen that seemed to have everything we needed to feel at home.

We chose to explore the Shenandoah valley before checking in, thinking we’d explore more of the area the next day. Once we arrived at Terra’s, we quickly figured our plans would change and chose to disconnect and stay in. Totally worth it. Sunny, warm weather allowed for a walk to the river, chatting to the pigs and following the sun or shade as the day unfolded whilst lazing and reading a good old paper book. Waking up to bird song was a treat. Thanks for sharing the farm history with us Terra.

Amazing experience! My husband booked our stay for our anniversary & everything exceeded our expectations. It was the perfect setting & breakfast was incredible both days we were there. We truly felt like we stayed in the Shire! Highly recommend especially if you are a Tolkien fan!
