Abalone Cabin - Charming retreat w/ ocean views!

Experience a one-of-a-kind coastal retreat in Trinidad, California, set along the rugged and breathtaking Northern California coastline. This charming 1970s A-frame home, paired with a separate family-room cabin, offers sweeping ocean views and an inviting setting ideal for nature lovers and beach enthusiasts.

The two-story main home welcomes you with a warm, comfortable living space thoughtfully decorated with distinctive artwork and décor collected by the home’s former owners—a Russian history professor and his wife, an English literature scholar from UC Berkeley—whose European travels lend the home its unique character. The main level features an open-concept living room, dining area, and kitchen, creating an effortless space for gathering and entertaining.

The fully equipped kitchen includes a gas range, toaster oven, microwave, and all the essentials needed to prepare meals with ease. Enjoy dining indoors at the table, which comfortably seats six, or step outside to dine al fresco while taking in uninterrupted ocean and coastline views accompanied by refreshing sea breezes. The living room is furnished with a leather sectional sofa and Smart TV, while a cozy den just off the main living space provides a quiet retreat for reading, relaxing, or enjoying an afternoon nap.

The property offers three comfortable bedrooms, each furnished with a new memory foam queen bed to ensure a restful night’s sleep. The main-level bedroom features forest views and convenient access to a bathroom with a walk-in shower. Upstairs, two additional queen bedrooms provide distinct perspectives—one west-facing with expansive ocean views and the soothing sounds of the sea, and one east-facing overlooking majestic redwood trees. A second upstairs bathroom includes a bathtub.

Cross the breezeway to access the original cabin, built in the 1950s as a music retreat for professors from what is now Cal Poly Humboldt. Once a creative haven for musicians, the cabin later became a family gathering space and now serves as a spectacular bonus living area with panoramic ocean views. This inviting space is perfect for relaxing by the gas fireplace, watching the Smart TV, playing games at the large table, or simply enjoying waves crashing against the cliffs and sea stacks. It’s an ideal spot for sunset viewing and wildlife watching, with frequent sightings of falcons, whales, and sea lions.

Located just a few miles north of the charming seaside town of Trinidad—often called the crown jewel of Humboldt County—guests are a short drive from downtown conveniences including a full-service grocery store, cafés, restaurants, shops, historic museum, and pier. The area is home to some of the region’s most pristine beaches, while nearby Sue-meg State Park and Redwood National Park offer scenic coastal trails and awe-inspiring ancient redwoods.

Whether exploring rugged cliffs, discovering tide pools, or unwinding with ocean views, this special property offers an unforgettable opportunity to experience the tranquility of the Pacific and the natural magic of Humboldt County.
