About this property

Humboldt Romantic Rural Hideaway

Recommended for guests looking for a peaceful getaway, not just a “room for the night”. The perfect romantic hideaway in the true sense of the word! This remote hidden beauty is a 45 minute winding rural road from Eureka and Arcata. (We suggest you bring food and drink for your first dinner and breakfast.) If your schedule is full of in-town activities we highly suggest that you leave at least one day open to simply relax, sit still and take in all this breathtaking getaway has to offer. Our former artist studio has been completely renovated into a charming art-filled cottage. Overlooking Little Lily Lake located on 120 acres of private estate. Solar powered, two story fully equipped hideaway with internet access. Self-light gas fireplace for warmth.
The cottage is nestled into lush forest with open views of blue sky and swimmable fresh-water lake (no fish!).
Located near sunny Kneeland, above the coastal fog with plenty of hiking and biking opportunities. Mad River (Baduwat) swimming and fishing 10 minutes away. Hosts on site to assist with any requests or services. Spacious upstairs bedroom with view overlooking Lake is accessed by steep staircase w/ rails, not suitable for the physically compromised. Downstairs fold out couch/bed, full kitchen and bathroom with shower are located at ground level. Outdoor claw foot bathtub!
