What a lovely rental! I stayed here with my spouse for seven nights, and it was truly a little home-away-from-home. We had busy days, but my favorite way to begin and end each day was by spending some time in the *beautiful* garden on site looking out over Humboldt Bay and Arcata. (My husband's fave was the proximity to the redwood park up the street.) Our needs were minimal during our stay, but Angelica was always quick to respond to a message. We will absolutely stay here in the future should we be in the area again.

Can't recommend this place enough! It's located in a great neighborhood that felt safe and comfortable anytime of day/night. Lovely views of arcata from the yard and a short walk up the road to the community forest. We've stayed here multiple times and will continue to use Baxters for future visits.
