    Very comfortable home with everything we needed. Close to Safeway and walkable to town square. Excellent management of the property. Would definitely stay here again.

    My family and I had a very pleasant stay! Plaza Casita is very walkable to great restaurants, the grocery store, and Cal Poly Humboldt (which we were checking out for my son). The only weird thing that happened was that Vrbo cancelled my trip (after we'd already paid and while we were in route to our destination), but Amy (the host) and I were able to stay in communication, and she knew we were still planning to stay. Aside from that little hiccup (and the bit of confusion we both experienced), my family and I had a great time! It was a perfect place for us to stay!

    The Plaza Casita is a lovely property. Just enough space for four adults to move comfortably. The king bed is so comfortable!! We had everything we needed and it was just a short walk to restaurants, a really neat brewery, a winery, and grocery store. Everything we needed or wanted!

    Two bedroom with Jack & Jill bath (bathroom between two bedrooms). Well-supplied kitchen and home. You can tell Amy has worked in hospitality for a number of years - well-suited and placed furniture and supplies. Dining magazine and Host notebook were outdated. Minetti’s for example closed in 2024. I understand it is difficult to keep up with closures these days! Many tips and recommendations in Host notebook were still helpful and relevant. Did not affect our visit, but knob missing fromBathroom cabinet. It is a very cute and functional 1920s(?) home with nice touches - built in shelves, etc. Good natural light, outdoor space and good viewing for people watching especially on Saturday during the plaza farmer’s market. Quick, easy walk to the square and town, organic/bulk option grocery co-op, restaurants and nightlife - movies and live music. We enjoyed blues rock at The Basement for a 5 cover. Comfortable beds with two pillow options and soft sheets. A very enjoyable stay! .

    Super cute bungalow, clean, great location. A couple blocks from downtown eateries and the Safeway. The most comfortable bed ever!! I took a nap just to lay on the bed again lol. Would stay here again and recommend to friends.

    We stayed in this adorable cottage on a birthday visit to our son, who is a student at Cal Poly Humboldt. The house was perfectly situated to walk to campus, cafes and restaurants, grocery stores, and the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary. The house is so pretty and nicely equipped with kitchen equipment/supplies, toiletries in the bathroom, etc. Our lovely visit was enhanced by having such a comfortable home base.

    Had a very cozy time. Great spot! I wish there had been things to hold on to in the shower as I am older and also walking in and out of the house but all in all the place was really nice and clean. I will stay here again when I come back to visit my family.

    I had a comfortable stay in La Casita. It was a close distance to downtown and conveniently located across the street from a sandwich shop. The home had a lot of charm and beds were super comfortable. I’d stay here again!

    Did not like the way the TV was set up. Requires your own streaming codes, which as a 70+ person I don’t have or know how to do.

    Property location is a big plus. Walk to The square. Easy access to hiking and beaches. Only downside is just 1 bathroom to share
