It's perfectly obvious from the topos and aerials that this was a farm, and indeed a book on B&Bs and the like states that "DeHaven Valley Farm was built in the 1870s on a hillside overlooking both the dramatic Mendocino County coast[.]" Google Streetview helpfully shows the same name on the mailbox. There are lots of hits for the public beach on the opposite site of the road, and a lot of stray hits on the name (with or without the space), but all evidence is that this was never a notable settlement.

- I found the tourist guides, too. ☺ There is almost enough to refactor this into DeHaven Creek, parts of whose valley were bought for the state park system in the 1970s, which connects via the Old Branscomb Road to other state park places, which was the course of a logging railroad in the 19th century, and whose forests were logged in the 1960s when the Union Lumber Company was taken over by Boise. Perhaps someone else will find enough to do so. Uncle G ( talk) 16:42, 8 May 2021 (UTC)

- Delete My favourite kind of article - a non-place sourced to an old gazetteer entry that WP has now made into a place. Not a community (even the beach is closed), even the local place signs signal 'Legget' as the next place up the road. Fails WP:GEOLAND. Best Alexandermcnabb ( talk) 14:20, 22 May 2021 (UTC)
