This was a great house in a great location. The forest trails across the street were incredible, and parking was easy in the driveway. Lots of space with 2 master type suites, plenty for our group. The pool table and arcade game were fun as well!Our host was great to communicate with as well. Check out was also easy with minimal requirements.

Excellent stay!

We loved our stay. Across the street from the community forest for many walks, close to town (Arcata is pretty small though), great game room area for teenagers, lots of space, big smart TV, and a great sunroom. Kitchen had everything we needed, and the beds were comfortable. We really liked this place and we will definitely want to stay again!

Eight adults who work in the healthcare field had a wonderful stay. We were so grateful for the walking trails among the ancient giants and the home nestled by nature. The soulfulness of the weekend was welcomed by all. Highly recommend this home.
