The Cob House was lovely! Surrounded by beautiful land and the ranch itself was amazing and full of life (and very very sweet cats!). A great place for some true peace and quiet. I would definitely return. Katie was a great host as well!

We loved staying at the Cob House! Katie thought of everything and we were very comfortable. I wish I could take that shower home with me, let alone the view from the bed.

Just exactly as stated, escape from it all at Roseman’s Ranch. We got in late and we had amazing canopy of stars dark skies and could hear the seals and ocean nearby! The cabin was cozy and warm, felt very safe. Loved the hot shower, with fern and jade at my feet. Very relaxing.

The Cob House was very adorable. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t the best but luckily the structure with the bed kept us dry and the bedding and small wall heater kept us very warm.
We did discover that the check-in information on hipcamp stated 2 but we found out it’s actually 4. Katie was great about working with us when we arrived early and was a great host.

We had an incredible stay at Cob House! The tiny bedroom building was cozy and warm at night in April. We cooked in the outdoor kitchen and made use of the outdoor shower and outhouse! Get ready for something between camping and "glamping".
We went to Cooks Beach and hiked out at Point Arena, where you can pay $5 to go to the top of the lighthouse.
p.s. my boyfriend proposed up there, so we'll definitely be back!
It was a beautiful, zen, off -the-grid few days spent at Katie's. She's also just a kind, lovely human being, which always makes an experience so much better.

We spent a lovely couple of nights at Katie's cob cabin. The cabin is situated in such a serene setting with the sound of the ocean nearby, and you can explore some great walking paths without needing your car. Katie herself is incredibly welcoming and accommodating, which added to the overall fantastic experience. The cabin remains comfortably cool even on hot days, providing a peaceful night's sleep. Our dog was as pleased with the stay as we were! If you're looking for a peaceful off-grid break, Katie's cob cabin comes highly recommended.

This spot is magical! It's like camping in a Victorian B&B. The impossibly clean cob house has a full wrought iron bed and fluffy comforter, dresser, books, strings of solar lights, lanterns to carry around, and a propane heater (if you need it -- the house seems well-insulated). Katie has created such a thoughtful space, with everything you need: sheltered camping stove and kitchen/sink area, the amazing tree stump shower, and a hammock in the shadiest redwood grove for midday.
Bring plates and pots for cooking, and a cooler. They have the propane, tea kettle, tea, silverware, salt/pepper/olive oil. Katie might even have some vegetables for you from her gardens. Consider bringing camp chairs if you want to sit in the shade (the picnic table is in full sun and PERFECT for nighttime star gazing -- I've never seen the Milky Way so clearly)
There are three working dogs and a couple farm cats on the property; they'll stay with Katie, but you'll meet them when you wander near the house. As a woman, this is a safe place to exhale, soak it in, and let your guard down. IYKYK.
I've stayed at dozens of Hipcamps and this is one of my favorites. I can't wait to go back.

What a beautiful place! We enjoyed three peaceful nights at Katie's cob house on Roseman Creek Ranch. Both the cob house and the kitchen house were built with such a charming sense of design. The shower is enchanting. The gardens are delightful - I took notes. Lots to explore in the area. A couple of our favorites are the Cove Coffee house and the New Museum brewery.

The Cob House was perfect! We had such a beautiful weekend cozying up in the house, exploring/hiking on the property and in the surrounding towns, and hanging out with all of the sweet animals around the farm (dogs, cats, chickens, and the funniest horse you'll ever meet!) And Katie was such a phenomenal host. We could not have asked for a better weekend away.

The Cob House was exactly what we needed for a quiet weekend away. The little house is comfortable, warm, and bright. The land is beautiful with plenty of access to nearby trails and parks. Katie and her menagerie were warm and hospitable. I would absolutely consider staying here again.

We came here to celebrate my boyfriend's birthday and we had the loveliest time. Their garden was a dream with all the veggies they had and flowers to come. They also had chickens roaming (whose delicious eggs I had for breakfast!), with cats, dogs, and horse following us throughout the tour :) It was a trip! Buttercup the horse was an instant favorite with my boyfriend. How often do you get to meet one and how often do they behave like a loving pup!
The cob house was such a cool set up; very warm and extremely peaceful. We don't usually shower during our camping trips but the outdoor shower was an awesome experience. It gets pretty chilly if you're not directly under the water but you get a refreshing feeling after! Katie mentioned there were plenty hikes in all directions but we didn't venture too far. We mostly cooked, ate, took photos, and hung out in the sun.
It was a bit of a trek from San Francisco, about 3 hours, but we made a lot of pitstops in several towns and beaches that it didn't feel that long. The land and trees were beautiful, especially the sounds it made in the wind. Katie was super chill and friendly through and through. She made sure we had all the information we needed to get there and that we'd have a good time during our stay. We had so much fun and can't wait to come back when we get the chance!

The cob house offers a private, cozy getaway in any season. It's close to Highway 1 and easy to get to. There’s some serious acreage to explore and the outdoor stump shower is magical. I would highly recommend staying here. I’m definitely going back.
