This was such a restful stay, we loved being within walking distance to a fabulous health food grocery. Beds I think are full not queen. Couches super comfy for reading. Kitchen well equipped, I especially appreciated the ceramic plates. Not all windows open but we were able to prop several open during the day to air it out. Overall loved having so much space for an affordable price and getaway.

Host was incredibly gracious in lending us some chairs and some space to store luggage before our flight home. House had everything we needed to sleep comfortably. Laundry was nice to have. Didn’t cook but there looked to be all the basics to make a meal. TV had all the usual apps. Heating worked well. Adequate blankets and towels. Very well located

Great location

Was a great location and had a parking spot that was off the street which was key for the location. The bed was extremely comfortable and was super comfortable home in general. Had some mishap when trying to adjust the dates by adding a date but once I was able to reach the host it was smooth sailing.

Older property with lots of charm. Plenty of space and sunshine. Well equipped kitchen. Very comfy beds. Host is communicative and accommodating. Check in was simple and convenient. Grocery just a couple of blocks away. Easy access to 101 and only a short drive to Eureka and McKinleyville. Walkable to Arcata Plaza.

Arcata college visit

Clean and lovely craftsman home. Convenient location for college visit. Third bedroom looks to have been converted from a possible laundry room. Ended up being too small to use. But otherwise a great location.

Our 2nd stay here did not disappoint

This gorgeous craftsman home is spacious, comfortable, sunny, and gorgeous. We hosted our student for dinner in the large kitchen, we walked to campus, the arcata farmer's market and more. I highly suggest staying at this home.

Getaway to Redwoods NP

Amazing location! Travelled with our two kids ages 15 and 12 and there was a room for each of them. Very walkable to downtown Arcata and several restaurants. About 30 minute drive from the south entrance to Redwoods NP. The home is spectacular with tons of early 20th century craftsman details throughout. Would absolutely stay here again without reservation.

Great house, excellent location

Had a great time at Sam's house. It's located just a few blocks from the downtown plaza and easy access to campus. We could walk to pretty much anything we needed. Nice market a few blocks away, new ramen shop a block away, plaza is 7 blocks away. House is a really nice older house. I have a soft spot for old houses, and like their quirkiness. House is laid out very logically. There's a nice office in the back and we used the smaller third bedroom as a quiet reading/hanging out room. Sam was very communicative and easy to reach. Will definitely stay here again on our next trip if it's available.

Pride of Ownership

We stayed here for a family wedding and was ideally located near the main Plaza as well as a local market, coffee shops, and a couple local restaurants. My father has a little trouble walking but commented that he liked the hand rails down the hallway to the bathrooms and in general was easy for him to get around. The place also had lots of charm and was very clean. There is definitely pride of ownership there. Two nit-pik items to be aware of are: 1. it is on a loudish corner with some traffic and the occasional college students walking by in the evenings. If you are sensitive to that, it could be an issue. 2. one of the two bathrooms is functional and nice, but very small. Over all, it was a great place and would stay there again without hesitation.

Great early 20th century charm with nicely added updates. It doesn't have the exterior charm of some neighboring Victorians, but it is definitely very functional.
