No matter what the season, Gasquet is always beautiful! Inquire soon as the Months of May-September always fill up fast! Mid-January - Mid March is traditionally blocked off for our owners during fishing season, if you are coming up to fish, make an inquiry with us and we often accept last minute rentals January - March even if the calendar shows booked.
WHY STAY IN A SMALL HOTEL ROOM when you can have all the comforts of home in a beautiful surrounding.
This is a private vacation house on the Smith River and completely furnished with all modern conveniences. Very private on one acre of land. All landscaped by nature with many pine, cedar, fir and madrone trees.
Our vacation home is located within the Smith River National Recreation Area along the banks of this pristine river. Only eight miles to the west is Redwood National and State Parks where some of the tallest redwood trees in the world reside.
Twenty miles west is the Pacific Ocean and the southern entrance to the Oregon coast. Fifty miles east are the Oregon Caves National Monument. We have 150 feet of riverfront property where you can, swim, snorkel, kayak, canoe, raft, fish, or just relax and enjoy the scenery.
If you are into winter steelhead fishing this is the place to be, December thru March. There are several fishing spots on the property and in the area we can guide you too. When the river level is at the bottom of the ramp fishing is perfect right there!
If you are in the area come by and check us out. We are right on the waters edge at 600 Gasquet Flat Rd, Gasquet, Ca. Look for the 'BMH LODGE' sign on the pine tree in front yard.

Another perfect stay at BMH. This property and its hosts are the pinnacle of what a vacation rental can be - with a location that can’t be beat. The only issue is always the same - how to decide whether to just stay and enjoy the deck, the river and the paradise of Gasquet or to get out to the myriad adventures in the area. Thank you Marian, see you next time. Jason (& Lily)
We enjoyed our stay, great accommodation, pet friendly, convenient location, close to places we wanted to visit, Redwood National and State Parks, Crescent and Klamath, CA and Brookings, OR. Beautiful view from the deck, looking at the Smith River. Amazing experience indeed. Highly recommended!

Great location for visiting the Redwoods. Also wonderful for just sitting on the deck watching the Smith River roll by. House was very comfortable and the kitchen had plenty of dishes and quality cookware. Lots of condiments and staples available as well. Hosts were lovely.
The property was exactly as described, unbelievable views, quiet neighborhood. Marian was so helpful with places to go and things to do!! We so enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed having you! Thank you for being such fun guests!
We loved staying here! We enjoyed the redwoods, the ocean and floating the river, but the deck overlooking the Smith River is the best part of BMH! And we love the host's hospitality.
Long weekend trip to see family and the location couldn’t be more beautiful. Quiet neighborhood, large deck with a great view, roomy inside and Marian was great to work with. Will come back next time we see family.

Absolutely loved our time here. Dog friendly, views of the river from inside and out on deck. Dogs and we loved floating on the river. Welcoming casual layout, which we wanted for our dog and outdoor activies. Quiet calm neoghborhood to walk dogs, neighbors all very friendly. Owner across atreet was wonderful. Involved only if you want. Loved my chats w her. Appx 20 min thru forest to crescent city, with great short hikes along the way
The location was fantastic. We really enjoyed the view of the river. The cabin was well stocked and comfortable. Marian was very kind. We would love to visit again.
We very much enjoyed this opportunity to stay on the crystal clear Smith River. Marian, the delightful manager, was especially helpful in tips on restaurants and side trips.

Really enjoyed the deck over looking the river. Great location and quiet neighborhood. Access to the river is very steep and inaccessible for older folks.

About the host
Hosted by MARIAN ALLMAN
The owners of BMH live out of the area. They rented BMH many times through the years, and when it went up for sale, they bought it! That way, when they want to come up and fish, its here for them!
We bought the house across the street in 2014, just moving here from Crescent City. It just made sense to manage BMH for the guys, so close, can keep an eye out for them when they're not here! My husband and I are retired, absolutely in love with Gasquet! It's quiet, wonderful warm summers, and of course, the north fork of the Smith River! There is no river as beautiful as the Smith! You can count the rocks on the bottom in the summer, watch the shades of green change, day to day, in the winter!
Why they chose this property
This is not like a lot of California. We have the ocean, the giant redwoods, the cleanest and clearest river in the U.S., the Smith of course. Our county of Del Norte has only 25,000 people and no polution.
