Fenced Yard, Pet Friendly, Cozy Cottage , Great Kitchen, Short Walk to Cal Poly

This comfortable two bedroom cottage is efficiently tucked away in the back corner of a large lot on a country cul-de-sac affording the convenience of a 10 minute walk to town, a 7 minute walk to Cal Poly Humboldt, a 3 minute drive to 101 and the quiet privacy of a rolling rural road. The refurbished original wood floors bring a classic yet new golden beauty to every room. The updated kitchen with cherry wood cabinets and prosumer Bosch and Viking appliances brings equal delight to preparing quick small meals for one or two as it does to being the central gathering point serving up a banquet of varied dishes when entertaining a moderate crowd. Open the sliding glass door and you effectively extend the kitchen to include a propane grill, an additional table and chairs and a long deck allowing up to 20 people to bask in the beautiful summer weather at the same time. Steps at the end of the deck lead to a fully enclosed yard for your exclusive use during your stay so your furry family members can bask in the beautiful summer sun with you so do not feel left out. The driveway next to the cottage fits two cars comfortably. Should you have extra guests, street parking is free, convenient, readily available, and restricted only by your imagination (and common sense, of course. We still live in a civilized society). A washer and dryer are available on the premises as well as a pool table and well-equipped exercise room.

Exploring Arcata
I had a wonderful time in Arcata at this property. When I arrived, the property hadn't been cleaned, sheets hadn't been changed, but the property manager was on-site at the time and hustled to get it all squared away. I made my own bed and was shown where to get towels and the like. (I made my own bed because I *wanted to*.) Property manager said that he'd refund the cleaning fee ("at least", was the promise) due to my changing my own linens and that was generous; I didn't have to ask. My friend's dog was happy in the yard and my daughter and her roommates who attend CPH were able to walk over for meals and visiting. It was quiet at night and reasonably clean. Hot water was hot! Nice little place.

It did the job
Place is cute inside and did the job for us as we were visiting our daughter who lives a couple neighborhoods over. It is very hard to find and the initial communication with the host was sparse, although he did get back to me quickly when I asked questions. I had to ask about the address and directions, the wifi, and really got no check out instructions. The neighborhood is a little sketchy and the back alley it is located on is also sketchy, but it turned out fine. But it all worked out and I appreciated the low fees charged by the host, we would stay again.

Cozy place, great location
My brother and I stayed here for a night on a Redwoods road trip. Would have happily stayed much longer. Cozy place with great kitchen and other amenities we didn't have time to fully enjoy. Cute town, lovely nearby campus. Eureka 15 minutes away. Wish we'd had more time to explore! I'll be back!

2+ week stay
We stayed for almost 3 weeks. The house is as described. Nothing fancy, but that suited us just fine. Plenty of room for the 2 of us and our dog. Convenient location. Great kitchen. Fenced yard was nice for our dog. Host was very accommodating on anything we needed. There is a washer/dryer on site. Overall, we had a great time. Definitely worth the price. We will stay here again.

Can't control the weather
There were so many aspects that were lovely. That said, it was very chilly but the coffee was hot. Was able to let my pet out the door to the patio and into the yard by herself. The bathroom and kitchen facilities were clean. New locks for the front door but the door didn't fit into the door jam but the neighborhood appear safe and proved so.

Good place to stay with pets
This place was a nice house with a decent sized yard for the pets. We were concerned by some of the reviews before we stayed, but those reviews are just complaining about nothing. You get what you see in the pictures. Nothing fancy, but for the price, it is a good value stay.

Good Stay
It was a good stay for a few nights, nothing fancy. The inside of the house is cute. We were traveling with a 75 pound dog and it was a great place for that. The fenced in back yard was the selling point for me. If I stayed again I would probably bring my own sheets and blankets but they had pots, spices, nice fridge, and two tv’s. Like 5 minutes from HSU!

We were unable to stay as the property was dirty and previous occupants towels and bed linens were all over the floor. There were bags filed with dog poop outside also. The owner never responded to us or VBRO and we ended up having to get a hotel at a considerable expense more than we would have paid. My advice never book this place

Casual home; Perfect if traveling with a Pet
Home was casual and simply decorated. Beds were comfortable with adequate bedding. Linens in closet. It was awesome to have a grassy, fenced backyard for our dog to run in! Dog water bowls were provided! Home set to rear of property, so it was very quiet. Communication could improve. Host responded promptly to all emails I sent. However, in those emails, I was told there was an iron in the home and that I would be provided with access to the on-site gym upon check-in. No iron and no access to gym provided. I ended up having a nice walk in the neighborhood and let the ironing go. So, no biggie. Overall, a quiet, comfortable home.
