“Great Place” We went to visit our son during spring break and stayed at the forest view studio. It was a great place to stay. Large, roomy, well stocked with every convenience, clean and close to every thing. And very quiet. We enjoyed ourselves, even with the rain - and they had umbrellas for us to use. Thanks again for having such nice places to stay - a home away from home.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

“Charming and Cozy.” We enjoyed the thoughtful touches, such as coffee in the freezer. The charming antiques, nice quality linens and convenience of a washer and dryer in the garage. We will come back again!!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

I came back to Arcata to see old friends, having lived here 5 years. This town, with its friendly, caring people, is truly magical, as is Forest View! I have long dreamed of falling asleep to the sound of running water. Thank you.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

What a rich experience! You have paid attention to all the details. I wish my husband could have come with me--it is quite extravagant to have the place to myself, although I very much enjoyed the solitude. I will be back. Thanks for the care and attention that were apparent in every area.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

About: I have had a love affair with Arcata since I moved here nearly 40 years ago to attend Humboldt State University. I graduated and could not leave this special place; our progressive kinda quirky little university town is like none other. I own and operate Arcata Stay Lodging network, created in 2004, and manage Forest View Stay for my owner partner, an Arcata resident.
Why Arcata:
The abundance of natural beauty just minutes away in any direction is phenomenal: the tallest most majestic redwood trees in the world, miles of unspoiled rugged coastline, sand dunes, lagoons, six beautiful rivers, ever changing Humboldt Bay, and Wildlife Refuges, to name a few. The redwood coast offers diverse recreational opportunities which attract visitors from around the world. I have hosted a good number of those visitors and guided them to the unique features of our area. I have developed friendships with guests who return again and again to visit their HSU students or family living in the area, attend our many festivals and events, conduct business, or come back to a getaway that they love. It is the perfect base from which to make day trips to the natural wonders of our region, and return at the end of the day to a lovely space with all the comforts of home.
The Unique Benefits at this Studio:
Arts, culture, music, theater, shopping, food and drink, being 'green' before it was groovy, a lively downtown Plaza, architecture, history, Humboldt State University, and a friendly embracing community make Arcata a destination not to be missed.
