This is probably the cleanest house I have rented. Just about every thing I needed for cooking, bathing, sleeping was at hand. Ken is a very friendly approachable person and lives next door so if anything is needed he's there.

My small family of three stayed here on a trip up the California coast. The town of McKinleyville leaves a little to be desired but it’s a perfect location for access to the beach and the redwoods. We visited Clam Beach and discovered Trinidad Bay beach later in the day. (Stunning views after a great lunch at Trinidad Bay Eatery!) Our day at Redwood National Forest was incredible. Ken, our host, was extremely responsive and accommodating. The backyard garden is a lovely setting for a glass of wine and a campfire. The house itself is extremely clean with comfortable beds and well stocked kitchen. Great for a small group needing a place to land while touring around the area.

Hammond Trail Cottage was exactly what we were looking for, especially for our family of four. It's well furnished, clean, and thoughtfully decorated. There’s a beautiful garden in the back that our toddler loved playing in. Ken and his wife were friendly, responsive, and always willing to help out.
The cottage kitchen is well stocked and has a nice balcony with outdoor table and chairs. When our little girl got sick and we had to stay in, we made a nice family lunch and enjoyed the view on the balcony.
Thanks again for the hospitality and would definitely love to stay at Hammond Trail Cottage again! We look forward to coming back during our next trip to Eureka!

Our family of 4 stayed in this 2 bdrm and it was PERFECT! The location is close to food and shopping, VERY quiet and close to the freeway. It is in an adorable and safe neighborhood. The apartment itself is beautifully appointed with interesting custom furniture, plenty of linens and thoughtfully placed amenities. The owners did a wonderful job putting it together. Every morning, I read a book in a comfortable antique chair next to the fireplace.
This unit is a perfect reating spots to return to after a long day of vacation adventures! We hope it is available when we visit again in the future!

Loved this property and loved working with the hosts. Perfectly described in the listing and probably even better than described. Clean, well furnished, and if you get a chance to explore the backyard, it is really impressive. Overall, I highly recommend and we hope to be back!!

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. The location was great for our visit to the Redwoods. The cottage was comfortable, clean and had everything our family needed to feel right at home. The yard is lovely with all the happy flowers. The only event that made it less than perfect was a neighbor’s late night party. Falling asleep was more difficult as open windows were needed to be comfortable when sleeping. Maybe a fan would be nice for comfort and white noise? We’d love to stay there again on future trips.

Very clean and had everything we needed. Nicely finished and furnished. Only suggestion is to put another queen bed in the room that currently has the futon. Thanks for a great stay!

This was my second stay in the house and I would come back again! The home is compact but thoughtfully designed. The kitchen is a great size and the front porch is a great place to have a cup of coffee. The location is quiet but also close to the freeway which makes it a great base to explore the region.

First Trip to The North Coast
Before going into the specifics, let me just say this was a fantastic property and worth every penny!
The kitchen was great and well-stocked with basic utensils and cookware.
The bathroom and bedrooms were very comfortable and nice sized.
While the living room was spacious, the seating was adequate for a small family like ours, but for a larger one would not be sufficient. The television only had a few channels, and a DVD player would have been nice to watch movies with the family.
The WiFi worked great and could handle the demands of multiple devices.
There were several extra amenities included that were very thoughtful and considerate of the hosts.
My only complaint is with the VRBO app itself. I was never able to access messages and check-in/out procedures through the app which hindered communication with the owners.
The property location is excellent, if you want easy access to North Coast cities and beaches, and is
only half an hour from Redwoods National Park. There are stores, restaurants and even a movie theater within a couple of miles. We will definitely stay here again!

Stay
The place was nice but they don't mention that you can't literally touch the neighbors house, it's so close with a shared yard. TV had 1 channel and I had to provide garbage bags. However house was cute and I liked the location

Great Place close to Redwoods NP
This is a great place to stay if you’re going to be spending a couple days in Redwoods NP. There’s several dining options a couple minutes drive away as well as a few grocery stores. Kitchen had everything we needed. Neighborhood was really cute and fairly quiet.

N. Shore vacation
We loved the space here in McKinleyville. It was very clean and had enough room for the five of us. Cute details were everywhere. Ken came out and greeted us, and gave us some great day trip information. They have a large backyard with a beautiful garden too.

Cozy Cottage
We had a great stay at the Hammond Trail Cottage. The cottage was cute & very cozy! It was very close to the beach, so we could hear the waves when it was peaceful. It was in a great location for short drives to several beaches & the Redwoods. Ken was quick to help with any questions and has an extensive knowledge of the area and it’s history. We highly recommend a stay here!

Exactly what are little family needed
This property is absolutely adorable, we loved it. It was stocked well with necessities and accessories, I made full breakfasts and dinners with ease! We are a family of 5 with 3 little ones under 7 and the owners were very kind and have a beautiful back yard that they allowed us to play corn hole in and the kids pick berries from their garden. It was nice to know that the owners are close by, I found this helpful and quaint! Perfect stay 10 stars, we will definitely stay there again!

This new build was an excellent place to stay for my small family of three! When we pulled into the driveway, we were greeted by one of the owners, who gave us thoughtful recommendations for sites to see in the area. The owners thoughtfully stocked the unit with all the kitchen appliances and dishes you would need for your stay. There were plenty of towels and extra linens, too! The unit was impeccably clean upon arrival! Internet was great and the water pressure was perfect. Would highly recommend to others looking for a safe and inviting place to stay!

Very clean and well maintained property. It was cozy, but worked for our family of 4. The beds were comfortable and there is a nice backyard to enjoy and seating on the deck, off the living room. A good location for visiting Arcata, beaches, and the redwoods!
