This magical place is far out there! We are providing a setting for those adventurers who want a place to REALLY "get away from it all." Expect a beautiful 30 minute drive on gravel roads through mature Redwood forest from the village of Mendocino. The property is also accessible from Fort Bragg via HWY 20 and road 408/Little Lake Rd. The Aloha Cabin is a beautiful one room timber frame cabin located on a ridge top in the Redwood forest. Upon entering the gate at Old Mill Farm the Aloha Cabin is the first building you see as you come out of the thick forest and into the mixed meadow/forest ridge top of the property. Old Mill Farm is a 320 ranch in the middle of Mendocino county's 50,000 acre JDSF (Jackson State Demonstration Forest.) The Aloha sits by itself about a 1/2 mile from the rest of the ranch buildings and like the entire ranch is completely off-grid. Electricity is provided by a solar photovoltaic system and battery back up. All water is pumped with solar power and gravity fed throughout the property. You will be imbedded in the outdoors with ample opportunity to commune with the forest and the wildlife that live there. The Aloha has a kitchen equipped for cooking with refrigerator, range and oven. There is a bathroom with a flush toilet and a private outdoor shower. We provide linens and bedding for the full size bed and towels for 4 guests. There is also a sleeping loft (with no bedding included but can be added as an extra.) Please bring your own pads and sleeping bags to use the loft or pitch a tent in the front yard. The front yard is fenced and has a fire pit. Always be fire conscious - never burn outside of the fire pit and extinguish all fires before leaving or bed. You are free to relax in the natural beauty of this place, meditate while walking our earthen labyrinth or hike around the property along the ridge and on the logging roads that descend on each side. Please respect all signs and private residents. JDSF has extensive hiking and mountain bike trails accessible right from the cabin or a short drive away. The breathtaking Mendocino Coast offers an abundance of activities from the forest to the ocean headlands and beaches.

Welcome to your private nature retreat — a safe, gated 10-acre wonderland where you can find your perfect spot to camp. Set amidst ancient volcanoes, unique minerals, abundant wildlife, and nearby wineries, this land offers singing birds, millions of stars on clear nights, peaceful deer, a secluded frog pond, open meadows, and oak and spruce woods to explore. The weather is lush in spring, warm to hot in summertime, colorful in fall, and crisp in winter.

We had a wonderful stay at Aloha Cabin! The property is secluded, peaceful, and perfect for unplugging. We loved exploring the abundant land, and the night sky was incredible—we could even see the Milky Way. The yard and fire pit made evenings extra cozy, and our pets enjoyed it just as much as we did. Inside, the wood stove kept us warm and comfortable, and everything worked perfectly. The cabin has a charming, eco-friendly feel with cool history and plenty of books to browse. It was exactly the cozy getaway we were hoping for. We’ll definitely be coming back!

We had a wonderful time staying at the Cottage in the Woods. A beautiful piece of property tucked away, but very close to everything. Would definitely stay there again.

If you enjoy quiet time in nature, where no one is about you, and you need a place to meditate or just vegetate, maybe read a book, this could be for you. The cabin is warm and spacious, the table and chairs and small fridge are sufficient for a couple's basic needs and there's a DeLonghi-type heater, if it gets cool (which wasn't the case when I visited). The kitchen about 40-50 yds from the cabin has sufficient counter space to prep meals. I enjoyed the hot shower after walking miles in and about town and beyond. There's an open field area about 100 yds up the path, where my pup was able to explore. If I plan to return, which I will, I'll bring an air mattress just in case, as the mattress was a tad hard for me. I prefer a firm, not a hard, mattress. I understand Matthew will provide a better mattress that's more accommodating for us non-Spartan souls. ;o)

Aloha Cabin sits among beautiful trees and a quiet forest - perfect for real quiet time in nature. Going off-grid, watching the fire glow at night, and then curling up in a cozy, comfortable cabin that had everything we needed felt so good. Cas was helpful and quick to respond, and the books about the farm’s story made the place feel personal and special. We’d recommend this cabin to our best friends - and we’d love to come back.

My boyfriend and I loved it here! You really feel, and are, separated from everything and it’s great that the cabin has everything you need. So incredibly peaceful and we really appreciated all the trails that were left for us on a map inside the cabin. You see the rare biker group or car pass by but other than that, no one else around. Bit of a rough drive once you get off the highway but if you come prepared with a car that can handle that, you’ll be just fine.

Old Mill Farm is a super sweet, peaceful area for camping with a quaint cozy lil cabin with kitchen & bathroom. We loved having fires outside in the evening. It is a ways out, but totally worth the beautiful drive through the Jackson State Forest. It’s a magical little oasis! ✨🌲🏕️

Serene, beautiful dome on a west facing slope in the hills. Had a peaceful stay with my dog. Even though it was hot, Eli took care to provide fans, and it cooled down substantially at night. There’s an adorable full kitchen and clawfoot tub. The views are incredible!

What a lovely place, lovely host, lovely dog-host. Off grid, remote but close enough to the world, and the Dome itself is awesome. I could go on and use more superlatives but it's exactly what you want, just book it. we had our 10 year old, and our 2 dogs, who all truly enjoyed themselves (10 year old unplugged).

This was just an incredible stay for our family at the Aloha cabin. It was the perfect amount of disconnect and comfort. Most of my family slept outdoors in tents and hammocks, but two of us slept indoors on a comfy bed. The hot shower was amazing, and the option to cook all our food was ideal. We spent some days at the beach and exploring the coast, and other days at the cabin soaking in the magical redwoods and serene environment. Cas was an exceptional host that provided a beautiful home and absolutely perfect setup. We will be back!

This is our second time staying at this magically secluded property. It’s a trek in on a long dirt road, but once you’re there, it’s such a peaceful and cozy cabin stay. We’ll be back again!
