An absolute gem. A chef's kitchen with high end appliances throughout, tastefully updated to honor its 1930's charm. Situated on massive lot in the heart of town. Walkable to Cal Poly Humboldt, restaurants, and shopping, yet tucked away in its own serene surroundings. Extremely spacious layout, perfect for entertaining those in your group. A private driveway and multiple entrances to the house make it easily accessible and safe. Enjoy a stroll through the immaculately maintained yard.
Thespace
Guests will have access to the entire house and grounds. You will be given self-check in instructions and enter via a smart lock. Feel free to park up to two vehicles in the private driveway, located through the alley in the back. Both entrances include a staircase in order to access the exterior doors, please keep this is mind for those in your party that might have mobility issues.

The house is incredibly spacious, including a large, high end, eat-in kitchen, dining room, large living room and entry area, two large bedrooms and a bathroom with tub/shower combo. We include a local bottle of wine with your stay in order to elevate your experience! There are two guest rooms in the house, one holds a king-sized bed and boasts views of the garden. The other has a queen-sized bed and has a gorgeous view of one of the large redwoods on the property. There is also a laundry room area just off of the kitchen available for guest use as well.

A deck is situated right off of the dining room area, making for a perfect indoor outdoor entertaining experience.

    Wonderful home a walk away from the square, shops and restaurants. Close to surrounding nature. The house is unique and very well appointed. The kitchen has most of what you need and is a beautiful space to cook in. Lovely and large property. We brought our doggo who was also very happy. We would stay there again.

    The house is beautiful inside and out. Very well appointed with luxury bedding, a gorgeous kitchen, and comfortable living throughout! The location is incredible a couple of blocks from Arcata’s main square yet very quiet! Definitely will stay again when returning to Arcata if available.

    We had a wonderful time! This is such a beautiful house, and a fabulous location, easy walk into town. My son attends Cal Poly Humboldt and my daughter is a graduate. We love the area and will definitely rent this house again!

    This was our 2nd stay. It is a charming house with tasteful furnishings and decor. Hard to believe this is a rental. And a very walkable location. Amy was again a great host, with lots of information for activities.

    Stayed for our annual family Humboldt trip and will definitely be back! Clean, cozy and beautiful. Very spacious, plenty of room for family dinners. Games, nice glasswear and thoughtful touches like a welcome bottle of wine. Quiet and private but so close to everything! Very responsive manager. House has a cool backstory too. Beautiful views. Can't wait to return.

    We were positively surprised by this house. Bigger than expected and truly in a central location that would allow walking everywhere (if it is not raining cats and dogs). Highly recommended!

    Wonderful house, with beautiful wood floors and cabinets, engaging artwork, large yard with large trees and hedge. Kitchen was great, with everything we needed. The host had provided us with suggested places to visit on our way into Arcata and in town itself. We plan to be back next year.
