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.

Dog friendly with great location near CPH

Everything we needed for a few days in Humboldt moving our son into school. The fenced yard was great for the dogs and the location was super convenient. Beds might use a topper but overall a decent spot if traveling with pups.

Nice when traveling with dogs

The property is on the edge of town, down an alley that leads to several units. The neighbors were extremely nice. The house is nicely setup for traveling with dogs, with a small backyard. The inside is modest, comfortable and very cleam.

Loved being close to campus. Nice park for doggie at the end of the street. Excellent appliances in kitchen. My only "needs improvement" was the yard...sadly, other visitors didn't bring dog poop bags.

One night only

We enjoyed our stay but had to cut it short for personal reasons. We appreciated the personal touches provided by the owner, but would have liked more specific directions to get to the house, which was off the street in an alley with only a mailbox across the street to identify the house number. Very quiet neighborhood behind an elementary school, would stay there again.

Visited daughter who went to Humboldt and just got a new job in Arcata working under her degree. Had family and friends for dinner (wonderful stove) as after Thanksgiving, pre Christmas as she will be unable to come home for the holidays. Husband and daughter went crabbing. Good time had by all.

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!

To Rest Your Head

This was a good place to just come to in order to sleep but with the comfort of having your own space. Beds were hard but my Mom liked it & me & my wife did not. Plenty of space for the 3 of us for 2 days to actually only be there to sleep and go do our vacation stuff. There was a couple issues but the host took care of right away. One wasn't his fault the Internet which was great was just acting up the other was there were no towels or a bath matt as well as no TP but once notified he brought it right down & later his other partner brought down more for us. Craig was extremely nice and friendly and he even took the time helping me by giving me some tips on finding the cheaper places to get gas in the area. Overall it was a good stay and worth what we paid for the 2 nights we stayed.

The most uncomfortable furniture.

The fenced area for our dogs was good. Because we travel with them it was the very important. The kitchen was very nice and clean with pretty much everything you need to prepare any meals. The bedrooms were clean and the beds were adequate. Netflix and Hulu were available to watch which was nice. But the furniture in the living room was not comfortable at all and needs to be replaced. If you like to watch tv for more than 15 minutes or maybe just relax you will be very disappointed. Also, some of the amenities stated in the description were not there.

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.
