Estate at Vista

Make yourself at home at this beautiful and spacious, dog-friendly vacation rental with spacious landscaped grounds with plenty of open space! This home is really great for a big family or your extended clan. The first floor includes an inviting living room with comfortable furnishings, a gas fireplace, and a large TV, perfect for gatherings with your friends or to unwind while reading a good book, a well-equipped kitchen and a kitchen nook, a formal dining room, and a game room with an additional sleeping area. The impressive primary suite features a king bed, sitting area, independently controlled gas fireplace & beautiful walk-in, granite shower. Step outside to the beautifully maintained gardens and landscaping with a spacious yard, trails to meander, and of course your private tennis and basketball court. The southern facing deck means great sun and fun. Estate is on a hill and is often free of all-day fog that can impact some areas of Humboldt County. The complete outdoor kitchen (with grills, oven, and refrigerator) is perfect for preparing a full meal and the outdoor seating is really inviting for a full county dinner or an intimate evening with friends! We look forward to accommodating you on the Redwood Coast.

You'll be located in a quiet, high-end neighborhood, yet close to the freeway and all of Humboldt's most iconic beaches and sights. Downtown McKinleyville is a short two mile-drive where you can find plenty of dining options if you don't feel like staying in and cook for everyone. It doesn't matter whether you're an outdoor enthusiast or you're just looking for a quiet place to unwind, the charming McKinleyville is the place to be. There are plenty of trails for biking and hiking and the most popular is the Hammond Trail, which extends five and a half miles from the Mad River to Clam Beach. Clam Beach, another must-visit, is five and a half miles away and is the ideal location for beachcombing, surf fishing, clamming, hiking, riding horses and picnicking.

Fantastic getaway

This place has everything! My entire family loved everything about it! Starting from the spacious cozy rooms to the tennis courts! We’ve never had a more enjoyable vacation. Something for everyone to enjoy. The beach is minutes down the road. The sun comes out but you get the cool ocean breeze all day. We will definitely be back! Thank you for sharing your paradise with us.

Plenty of room to spread out with views and centrally located

Great location close to everything in a quiet neighborhood. .. great house for our large family. kids and inlaws. Plenty of things to do for the kids plus space for people to relax and get away from the main commotion of the house. The outside kitchen was a nice perk. The BBQ grills were amazing.

Family vacation

We had the best time at the Grren House (nicknamed by my grandchildren) in Mckinnleyville. There was so much to do at the house games for the adults and children a short drive to the town and beach and very private. It was clean and we loved it. Would definately go back. My granddaughter didn’t want to leave she cried for 15 minutes

Our stay was so fun! There was room for everyone and the house is quirky-cool and comfy. We loved walking around the neighbourhood. We saw goats! chickens! Red lizards! Friendly, fluffy doggos. Everything we needed for cooking was available. The beds are cozy and the shower on the bottom floor is the bee's knees. Best. Shower. Ever.

Lovely House and Grounds. We had some trouble with internet hookup though, ie, spotty for some of us. Also some windows lack screens and various other relatively minor issues which will hopefully be fixed. All in all a very nice place to stay.

Not again

We had no control of the thermostat and at night it cooked us in our rooms but the living space was cold all day. The cleaning had been done but only where you could see, when we put our feet up in the recliners there was trash under the couches. They didn’t tell us that all of the burners didn’t work on the stove so our dinner took forever to cook. My family and I will not be staying again.

Redwoods

House was clean and comfortable on the inside, the outside BBQ area was awful, would not use it at all.The wooden walk aways are in terrible condition, handrails will give you splitters if you use them for support. House siding in front is torn off and laying on the lawn by the side deck. Enjoyed the tennis/ basketball court. We left the property at 7am, didn't know we were supposed to report our time of departure.

Great time but problems

The property is great but not well designed for older folks because it is split level. The upstairs bedrooms were good. The downstairs was hard to heat so in order to get the downstairs warm you ended up overheating the upstairs. The master bedroom bath had issues. The shower doesn't have a door, so it was hard to keep from getting water on the bathroom floor which made it very slippery. You had to jiggle the toilet handle after flushing or the toilet would run. It was our 60th wedding anniversary and a family gathering, and we enjoyed our time there. We would stay again but it would be better in the warmer months when you can enjoy all of the amenities.

Very roomy and comfortable

We stayed here for our son’s graduation weekend from CalPoly Humboldt. It was a great place for us, super comfortable and plenty of space to work and then celebrate. The outdoor kitchen was an added bonus and we grilled and ate outside on the protected deck. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms generously sized. The house is also very conveniently located close to town while still feeling like you’re in the country. We also enjoyed the basketball and tennis court!

Mint Julep

Our stay at the house was very enjoyable. There were 6 of us, of quite varying ages. The house was very comfortable, having plenty of space for everyone to not feel crowded. It had a fully stocked kitchen, which was very helpful, as we made most of the meals during our 4-night stay.The yard was fantastic. With the tennis court, basketball hoop, and large, beautiful yard, we spent a good deal of time outside. Our brunches were all outside on the lovely deck and we soaked up the good weather we were so lucky to enjoy.We named the home “Mint Julep,” and after our outings we were pleased to return.All in all, we loved our stay and should we require accommodations again in that area, we would definitely rent Mint Julep.

Spacious, relaxing house with everything you can think of

We absolutely loved how much room there is to spread out or all gather together. The decks, the gorgeous huge yard & tennis court/basketball court is amazing for getting out energy & letting kids run! We appreciated that the kitchen had everything we would ever need to cook or bake & really loved not having a huge check out list! We will 100% try to rent this house again.
