Nice little guesthouse convenient to everything. Well appointed, warm and pleasant decor. We loved seeing the redwoods out of every window, and watching the tide roll in and out of the bay. Wonderfully quiet. Great central heating, much appreciated in late November!

We had a fantastic time. We enjoyed the sunsets over the ocean off the front deck, and the beautiful community forest off the back deck. The home was clean, and had everything we needed. Highly recommend this property.

Great location. Lots of redwoods right outside your window! We used it as a launching point up and down the coast to the many state parks. House was comfortable. Easily fits up to 4 people. As advertised. Small shower. Toilets had some flushing issues, but overall, we really enjoyed this rental.

My husband and I loved our stay in this quiet neighborhood close to town. The house is very clean and well decorated with some really cool art work. The kitchen had everything we needed. It has wonderful views of the bay and backs up to the Community Forest with a trailhead just up the street. If you're there on a Saturday you must go to the Farmer's Market in town, it's amazing! Would definetly return to this house we were very comfortable there.

Five Stars! Impeccably clean property with everything you need during your stay. Great location with the backyard being the Redwood Park where you can get a morning run or walk in before your work or play day begins. Vacasa does an outstanding job and is always there when you need them.

The house is very lovely with a beautiful view. We slept well and enjoyed the easy access to the redwood park. The late afternoons on the deck were gorgeous with the sun shining and sunset views.
There is no bathtub at the house which wasn't clear in the description and was challenging with little kids. The door to the second bedroom locks on the inside but has a key lock instead of a standard indoor bedroom lock. Our 3 yr old locked herself in there one night which was scary! We had to disturb the owners to get a key and thankfully they were home. That is a safety issue and really needs to be addressed. There were no spare blankets in the house. My husband ended up sleeping on the couch so our 3 yr old could skew better and he had no blankets. We didn't realize until we booked the place that we couldn't have any guests over which was a bummer because w were up there to visit family and would have liked to have had a dinner with everyone at our place.

Humboldt Bay Views / Close to Campus, Downtown and Park
My daughter was touring Humboldt State as possible school. We walked to downtown Arcata for groceries (20 mins); it's also about 20 min walk to campus. It backs up to Redwood Park for other walk possibilities. It has nice light in main room and views of the bay.
