Sharon and Sam's place needs to be experienced to really appreciate it. The home is extremely well-kept, spacious, and has the rare combination of Olde World Charm PLUS plumbing that works! The location is hard to beat as numerous restaurants, businesses, and a wonderful grocery store/deli (Wildberries) are within easy walking distance. You will not be disappointed!

Very comfortable charming house in a great location. We appreciated Sam’s suggestions for things to do in the area. The only problem we had was the house was dusty and my kids allergies kicked up, but Sam said Vrbo hadn’t been letting him know about bookings so maybe they didn’t have time to dust! Overall, we had a wonderful experience, we would definitely stay here again. Go to Arcata Redwoods Community Park!!

This is our third stay at this wonderful property and we were very pleased. The large living, light filled living room is perfect for coffee and relaxed evening conversation by the fire. The kitchen is functional and perfect for gathering and enjoying. There is a lot of space to spread out, 2 full bathrooms and outdoor space. This is our favorite when visiting our Cal Poly kid and we’ll be back!

The house was spacious and had lovely historic details w/ modern accents. It was very convenient for walking to a market and restaurants, as well as very quick drive to the downtown plaza and the Cal Poly campus. We got right on and off Hwy 101 to go exploring. We'd definitely stay here again.
