Perfect landing spot

Charming quiet town and perfect apartment and location for our landing spot when checking out the Redwoods. Multiple beds made traveling with teens much easier!

Arcata Gem

Location is perfect for us. Parking is an issue, but easily overcome if you have good mobility. My husband is not a walker so it was difficult for him, but I just dropped him off and then parked. Stairs were an issue. Did not expect two large flights of stairs. Luckily, there was living area and a bed room at the top of the first flight.
