Bay, ocean, and pier views are just around the corner, and nearby trails provide easy access to Trinidad Head, Trinidad State Beach, and Old Home Beach.

Good option for cost conscious travelers

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: CC is in-town, and walkable to all that the town of Trinidad has to offer. Only thing that would add to the quality would be a channel guide for the tv/cable and a washer/dryer combo. Overall, a clean place to stay.
