This home worked very well for two seniors and two school-aged grandchildren. It’s in a quiet area, has a south-facing deck (a very good thing in chilly, damp Arcata!) and lots of windows in the kitchen/great room area. We appreciated that it was nice, but not model-home-perfect. A few little imperfections made it feel more like home. The location is convenient to the shops and restaurants of Arcata with about a 15 minute walk.

The kitchen was stocked with pretty much everything you would need to cook meals including spices. Super quiet, parking in the driveway and street parking. We felt extremely safe here. The pictures online were a clear representation of the house. Actually seemed a bit larger, super happy with our choice.

Nice house, perk being dog friendly.
Check in process was easy.
Good location, walking distance to downtown, felt safe.
House could use some add'l amenities to make it 5 star vs 4 star. Essentials in my mind include coffee filters, foil/saran wrap which were missing. We bought and left for the next person. Some cozy blankets would be nice too while watching tv, we just had to bundle up with our sweatshirts/jackets.

The house is in a quiet neighborhood with a well-equipped kitchen, and very comfortable beds. We enjoyed the game cupboard and even worked a jigsaw puzzle. Five family members from three generations would definitely rent this property again.

This was one of the most demeaning experience renting through VRBO, which I have been doing with my family for years. I have had one other previous experience with Vacasa before which was sub-optimal, and I had thought that was an outlier. However, after this experience, I will not rent myself, and if asked, will strongly discourage others as well. I do not want to spend more energy describing the issues, I have attempted to do so to the customer interfaces I have interacted with and the experience has been infuriating at worse, and unsatisfactory at best. There are enough options outside of Vacasa, and am glad the properties that are rented through you are marked clearly so I can avoid them in the future.

My family and I stayed here during a visit to Cal Poly Humboldt. We were immediately impressed with how incredibly clean the property was. Checking in was a bit difficult. Vacasa was supposed to send us an email with check-in information but we didn't know that. We arrived at 11p after a long drive, so trying to figure everything out was frustrating. We got the door code and Wi-Fi info after calling Vacasa. Despite that trouble, this vacation rental is still a 5-star place. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking gear, utensils, and basics (oil, spices, etc.). We didn't eat out once during our 3-night stay! My only suggestions are a medium sized sauce pan (something in between the small sauce pan and large stock pot) and a few extra trash bags. Having access to a washer and dryer cut down on the amount of clothing we had to bring with us as well as gave me the opportunity to bring home all clean clothes. The beds and linens were comfortable and there was plenty of space for 5 adults and 1 child. Thank you, Michelle (owner), for sharing your space with us!

The home was in quiet neighborhood. The layout was great! Our only issue was the water pressure when taking a shower. They have water saver showers. However, it took longer to rinse off. Therefore, a longer shower time. Are other issue was we ran out of toilet paper. The back yard for the dog was Great! We had a wonderful time visiting with our daughter. We would gladly stay again!

Great base for our Redwood Coast vacation. Arcata is charming, neighborhood felt safe, and our 2 kids and 3 dogs were all very comfortable. Backyard was perfect for the Doggos and each kid had a nice size room. Beds were comfortable enough and there were plenty of dishes and towels.

I loved this home for its layout, furnishings, and features. We stayed for our granddaughter’s graduation and it was a perfect location to organize our celebration. The home was well stocked with essential needs and the beds were
Very comfortable…not hard and not too soft! We could walk to a local bakery in the morning and get tasty treats and it was also very close to the Holly Yashi store. While we were in Arcata we visited Trinidad and the Avenue of the Giants. This home was well located to explore the hidden treasures of this area. We also enjoyed the puzzles that were provided and even added one that we brought from home and completed while we were there. In all it was a perfect place for our family. Thanks so much🥰

Clean and well stocked and welcoming to our family of 5 and our dog. We had a great home base for exploring Trinidad, the Redwoods, Arcata, and just relaxing in the house. Lots of great kitchen supplies! Our only complaints were: more blankets, more sponges and dishtowels for actually using the kitchen!

The spacious rooms, living room, and kitchen are wonderful. The kitchen is very well stocked and clean. The only thing missing was one or more boxes of tissue--we ended up pulling out an extra roll of TP for the living room to blow our noses with. There is only one hot pad--two would have been helpful to lift a heavy baking dish out of the oven. Also, one or two trivets would be useful.

All three beds were really nice. Soft, comfortable, clean and sturdy. The house was clean and the washer and dryer was a lifesaver for us to do our laundry mid stay. The backyard had a nice fenced in area with wood chips and rocks for my little dog to do her business. The neighborhood was quiet.
