Lovely spot overlooking town of Arcata. Very clean

We loved spending a week here while attending a music workshop on campus. We walked back and forth (17 minutes) and also into town for groceries and restaurant dining. The hosts invite you to enjoy the view from the lovely patio complete with Koi pond and abundant flowers. The inside is charming, clean, and new. We only caught a glimpse of Baxter the cat. Last but not least, the cottage is located at the entrance of Redwood Park which has forest trails to enjoy.

I come up to this area 4 times a year for a week for business. I used to stay at the hotels in the area. No more! This place was perfect! Nice location. Beautiful views. Quiet and very clean! I highly recommend this property!

I sat at the table by the window and watched the sunrise/sunset over Arcata and the ocean. I watched the fog come and go. The cottage is in a breathtaking location. Only a block to trails through the redwoods. The cottage itself is clean and stocked with everything you could think of needing. I could have just moved in and stayed . . .
5.0
The cottage was clean and well equipped. The bed was comfortable, clean linens and towels provided. The cottage is located on a hillside with an ocean view and outdoor patio space. The location is quiet, however the refrigerator is noisy and comes on almost hourly, even throughout the night. We would have accepted the offer to stay an additional night for 1/2 the nightly rate however when I checked on this with Vacasa customer service, I was told I would have to pay an add'l $30 cleaning fee. I had already paid $60 cleaning fee for 2 nights. That seemed unreasonable so we opted out.

There was everything we needed here, along with the stunning view made this the absolute perfect place to stay. Would highly recommend.

Great bay view, comfortable amenities, and right next to the community forest. Cannot beat the price for this little gem.

The apartment is in a beautiful location overlooking the city and the bay. It was very clean and fully equipped and functional. In a very quiet neighborhood near the community redwood forest with easy access to town, we couldn’t have asked for more.

The check in and check out process was seamless. The first night we enjoyed watching and photographing a doe and her fawn comfortably snacking on grass and shrubs through the large living room window and standing in the driveway. Great facility and especially loved the convenient stacked washer /dryer. Easy to find and close for a stroll in Redwood Park. Centrally located for traveling to Trinidad, Arcata and Eureka. Loved our stay.

Great location, nice view, close to campus. Well set up and comfortable bed. We never were provided with lock box code for key. Had to borrow neighbor's spare to get in. Otherwise all good. Instructions say please run dishwasher when leaving. No dishwasher.

I love it when an owner anticipates the needs and desires of their guests.
Baxters Bayview delivers on all that was advertised and more. We were especially thrilled by the laundry facilities and the bay view was Sublime

Wonderful cottage stay that is planted right in the middle of all the places you'll want to visit. Well stocked with everything you need (even several ice packs for packing lunches, which we thought was great!) Very clean. Great view and outdoor space.
This place has a bed and futon, which is great for a trip for a pair that doesn't necessarily want to sleep in the same bed. Like our trip, it was my daughter and I. There are extra sheets and blankets in the closet if you need them. We had brought our own because I wasn't sure (now know for next time). Any store you might need is within a five minute drive. I've never had a rental provide laundry, what a huge plus!! (Soap pods were provided- thank you!!)
Great beaches off Samoa Drive, Saturday Arcata farmers market is fantastic, Redwood Skyway in Eureka is amazing (part of zoo), Elk Meadow a must when you head to National Park. So many things to see, a drawer in the cottage even has more suggestions. You will not run out of ideas. Thank you Baxter's, we will be back!

Beautiful Bayview cottage
My husband and I loved staying at this beautifully appointed cottage. It’s a complete package! The decor was lovely, it was so comfortable and peaceful. The view of the bay was beautiful. I loved all the amazing flowering bushes and flowers. We hope to return! We loved it!

Nice quiet property within walking distance to Arcata Community Forest.
Dining options were scarce, but that is not a reflection of the property.

Great spot!
Lovely spot with a fabulous view! Unit was very clean and well stocked. The only suggestion I have is to provide a mattress topper for the futon in the living room. Especially if you are traveling with kids or a potential college student.

Baxter’s Bayview Cottage
Great place. I was a little concerned about the rental being through a company but it went flawlessly. Easy access to downtown and the college. Restaurants within walking distance. Oh, don’t miss out on a hike through the redwoods. The park entrance is 25 yards from the cottage.
