Nice quiet spot. Close to safeway and other stores you may need. We really like the kitchen and the assortment of cooking tools. Big backyard for the dog too.

Very clean house and I would definitely recommend. We had a comfortable stay and the location was perfect for our visit to the Redwoods, and a day trip to Trinidad which is lovely also. Had good bagels/bagel sandwiches at Los Bagels in Arcata and there is a good coffee shop in Trinidad...try the scone. Thank you for a comfy stay at your home!

This home is beautiful and worked perfectly for our couple days stopping to see the Redwoods. Our only thing we would recommend is a way to do laundry because there wasn’t much of an option for late night laundry and we had a ton with 5 people thousands of miles from home.
