The Tea House review
We loved the quietness of the property, the ambience of the cabin, the kitchen area and the coziness of the place. It's perfect for a meditation retreat, a 2nd honeymoon or any other activity that warrants privacy, intimacy or quietude.

The Tea House was so lovely. Cozy but not cramped - the shoji screens and traditional Japanese decor were so special. We are definitely going to stay at this property again. It's a real stand out.

quiet retreat
i enjoy coming to the tea house cabin for a retreat into the quietness and beauty of the cabin in it’s wooded surroundings. the aesthetics are pleasing and the cabin is well appointed. i like the nest like feeling, an opportunity for solitude and being quiet there.

Private Retreat!
I loved my stay at the Tea House! I needed a peaceful getaway and this cabin was perfect. The cabin had all the necessities I needed for a pleasant stay. The cabin was clean and the customer service was excellent! I enjoyed exploring the town and relaxing in the cabin. I definitely recommend the Tea House for a quiet getaway. 💜

Nice sea ranch retreat
Exactly as described. A nice studio retreat with a full kitchen and bathroom and a sofa bed. The tea house sits up on a hill that is a winding slightly steep path from the parking spot. Very comfortable and quiet for 1-2 people.

Peaceful and intimate
Since we are advanced students of Chado, this was a perfect place for a too-short retreat. Future guests should be made aware of the extra fees and the 50-yard uphill narrow uneven path between parking and house

Everything was great and almost perfect. The decor was really nice. The sleeping arrangements need to be updated. The futon didn't latched on one side when reclining. My husband woke up with a back pain because it was hard. Maybe getting a sofa bed?

Place was nice when we walked in then a big big on counter..hair all over toilet..toilet was used & not flushed. Fridge completely off and leaking all over floor. Patio door fell off with a slight touch. Perfect for 2 only. It was nice and very quite. I will try again maybe different place next time.

My second visit to the Tea house
Love this place. It's so clean, an oasis in the forest.For me it's more an experience than a place to stay. great energy for meditation and contemplation.

Beautiful and Serene
We loved staying here for two nights. We found everything we needed in the kitchen in order to make a simple pasta for dinner as well as coffee in the mornings. The fireplace and wifi worked great. Amazing cabin in the middle of the forest.

A hidden gem
Loved this special place. Location in the forest and special energy made this a great location for my retreat. The walk up to the house on the forest trail added to this special experience. I enjoyed the Japanese style decor. Eating meals on the outside patio right next to ferns and trees was one of my highlights. The kitchenette is well equipped, does not have dish washer. Shower bathroom and changing area are great. Only the sleeping situation is a little cumbersome. Once set up I slept reasonably comfortable. Thanks to the owners for letting us use their retreat space.

Tea House
lovely house. Getting up from road (walking) harder than said. Would make great difference to have info of the surroundings...walks..things to see. Major problem was sleeping. Need couch that can open for 2 people. we had to move the wheeled kitchen device to flattern couch and make it large enough. Not comfortable and in morning did LONG drive home !note :NOT made for 2 This could be fixed !! customers would be happy if fixed ! so simple ! Thanks..DO IT !

Charming compact space in lovely forested setting
The teahouse in a shaded forest setting, up a soft pathway, has lovely Japanese style shoji screens and tatami, which require special respectful consideration we were happy to provide in order to experience this delicate aesthetic. Our stay was peaceful and enjoyable. We would love to return.

Mixed experience!
Let's lead with the good: this is a beautiful, uniquely designed rental quietly nestled in the woods. Waking up here is magical, particularly if you can spend extended time in the house. The rental was larger than we expected, the shower lovely, and it had a few household items already stocked we were happy to find (tea, etc.). It's a peaceful setting, and we did not hear any interference from the local airport nearby if that is a concern of yours. However, our first night staying in the rental was unacceptably cold. Someone (possibly a prior guest?) had extinguished the pilot light, so we did not have the gas fireplace. We couldn't get the thermostat to change, called support that night, and they had no way to help because the local office was closed. We were able to call Vacasa again and receive help the following day, but heating is so crucial that this heavily colored our stay. The pullout bed is quite stiff even with the mattress cover on top, but it is queen-sized when fully extended, and the blankets are heavy. Transparently, we also had momentary trouble on arrival finding the lockbox because it blends into the house. Other than these hiccups, we would certainly consider staying at the Tea House again.

Nice little house
We stayed two nights, and had good time. It was clean and cozy. It was big enough for two of us. The only problem was the lockbox. It was not easy to close it.

Secluded and Hard to find but worth the effort
Off the beaten track and you have to hike up from the parking area, but what a great, secluded spot! Love the Japanese style, quasi tea house design but with western conveniences built in yet discreetly hidden. The sofa sleeper is not big enough for a normal size person (fine for my my 5’2” wife, but not fine for 5’8” me.). So we laid out the futons which were slightly too wide for the space, but found that the comforter was too small for the futons. We made it work though. Sat on the wrap around veranda in the early afternoon sun, lush forest foliage, warm sun, cool breeze - perfect!

Bliss at The Tea House
This is the ultimate escape for one or two people! It's an authentic and architecturally interesting Japanese tea house, surrounded by old growth Redwood trees. The decor is beautiful and calming, and I appreciated the privacy as well as the hikes you can take right from the back door. It's ideal for a romantic get away or a moment to stop time and just be... I'll be going back for sure.

A beautiful retreat in the redwoods
The Tea House is thoughtfully designed, well-equipped, and a great space for a relaxing getaway. As a studio, it's a bit on the small side, so would be challenging for more than two people. Access to hiking trails from this property is excellent and there are gorgeous forest views from all windows (and two skylights!). A few things that differ from the online description: there is no dishwasher, and only a mini fridge. (This wasn't a problem, just something to plan for, especially if bringing groceries for a longer stay.) There is a coffee maker, but it is a small one--a mini Cuisinart 4-cup. And no coffee grinder (but ground coffee was available in the pantry). The air bed mentioned in the description was also not present, but the futon was comfortable and easy to fold in and out. Due to the tatami mats on the floor this is a no-shoes home, but sandals are provided (or bring your own). The neighborhood is quiet and the home feels quite private and secluded. Parking was easy in the designated spot, but there's a bit of an uphill hike to the Tea House from there--just something to be aware of if you're not packing light and/or if you have limited mobility.
