Cowabunga
Surf’s up, dude! Ready to catch some waves, explore this scenic and beautiful area, and hang
loose on the Mendocino Coast? We have the perfect place for you: the Cowabunga, a fully
restored 1973 Airstream Land Yacht, a “blast from the past” fixed up with all the modern
comforts. Located in the heart of historic Noyo Harbor at Sportsmans Park, this unique RV is an
ideal base camp for your Mendo adventures.
Kayaking, canoeing, hiking, biking, surfing… you name it, we have it! You’ll never be bored while
you’re here. Colorful and quirky shops (including Lost Surf Shack), art galleries, wineries and
breweries, restaurants, and pubs are a great way to experience the local scene. For a quieter night
in, the Cowabunga has a TV, Wi-Fi, CD player, movies, and a collection of board games.
From the Cowabunga, you can walk to Noyo Harbor Beach. A short drive away, Pudding Creek and
Virgin Creek to the north and Caspar and Big River to the south offer the white sand beach
experience and some righteous waves.
Whether you’re relaxing after a long day on the beach (it’s hard work, but somebody’s gotta do it,
right?) or you’re taking a break between adventures, you’ll relish returning to the Cowabunga. It’s a
relaxing refuge where you can unwind and rest up for the next day’s adventures.
This 173-square-foot Airstream has a studio-style layout and features a couch that opens up into a
full-size bed, along with a fully equipped kitchen and roomy bathroom (complete with the highest of
RV luxuries, a regular flush toilet). In the kitchen, you’ll find a 4-top gas stove and oven, a
refrigerator, a microwave, a sink, and a coffee maker.
As the Cowabunga sleeps 2, this RV-turned-surf-shack is perfect for a romantic vacation or a trip
with a good buddy. If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime summer trip (or winter – it’s California,
after all), this is it… except after you visit, you’ll want to come back every chance you get. Get ready
for a far-out vacation at the Cowabunga!
NOTE: If you are bringing pets, please let us know!
There is a $75 pet fee per pet.

STUFF THAT'S GOOD TO KNOW
HOT TUB CODE: 1467
THIS RENTAL IS LOCATED IN AN RV PARK IN THE HARBOR
This rental is located in a classic, old school RV park that have been in the harbor for decades. I personally think that is adds to the rustic harbor experience but there are some who do not like being in an RV park. Please look through all of the photos on this rental so you can get an idea of what the park is like so you can make a personal determination if this is right for you .
UNLOCKING THE FRONT DOOR
Using the door lock : When you arrive, go to the black key pad on the door, press the corresponding numbers for the code itself. After you press the last number press the unlock button in the image in the center and wait 5 seconds. You will hear a chime indicating that the door is unlocked. Proceed to pull the handle and the door will open.
IN THE HOUSE
This rental is all about getting away from it all, the unit does have WiFi but NO PHONE in the unit. The beds are all custom made and are super comfy.
GARBAGE
There are garbage cans for the trailer park at the inside entrance to the park on the left side when looking back from the unit.
VEHICLES
There is only room for one vehicle which can park directly beside the unit. If there is need for a second vehicle, please reach out to us so we can try to accommodate if possible. Since the parking is right behind the unit and there are other units close by, please try to be as quiet as possible early in the morning and late at night. Thank you !
PAY ATTENTION AND BE SAFE
Children must be supervised at all times on the wharf. No climbing on the railing at any time for both children and adults
