We were a group of 13 staying here for our Peace Corps Tanzania reunion, as well as running the Avenue of the Giants marathon/half/10k. The place was even bigger than it looked online, with plenty of space to host the whole group and have a nice cookout after our race and on a really beautiful property. The host was quick to respond with any issues we had (the only minor thing was running out of toilet paper) and we found them to be very helpful. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a nice group getaway in the Redwoods.

This was a great family house. We had plenty of room, the kids loved the pond. It was secluded and not too far from the Redwoods and all that there is to do there. We really enjoyed the home. It felt very homey!

This house has absolutely everything a large family needs for a great vacation! Beautiful, clean, lots of “toys” & a breathtaking wooded trail that leads to a private pond.

Amazing

My family and I traveled here to be surrounded by the majestic redwoods and peaceful silence. The home had every amenity we needed and several we never touched. We were pleasantly surprised by the fondue pot and ice cream maker even though we did not use them. The drive to the house is stunning. Traveling the last week of May made for perfect weather and temperatures. I strongly recommend this home and it's comfortable accommodations.

Redwoods

The house was great. We had 14 humans and 3 dogs at bigfoots hideaway and we had a great time. The place is ideal for dogs. There are no neighbors that can be seen from the house so the dogs are free to be dogs. Its close enough to everything you need and everywhere you to want to see on a redwood vacation in my opinion. We also made it down the road to the casino in Blue Lake where i thought the dealers were exceptionally nice.

Wedding

We came for a wedding in the Blue Lake area. It suited our needs. Wish we could have stayed a little longer and used more of the amenities the place had to offer, such as barbecuing and more games. But everyone found something to keep them occupied. Hopefully we can come back.

A wonderful peace for a large gathering

Great, modern, huge house for a big group stay in the Redwoods. Very clean and tidy. You could easily spend an entire vacation just at the house, there is so much to do there! If using Google maps, note that the directions are incorrect and you may get lost. Do not turn on Grassy Creek Ln as the directions say, go to the next road which is where the property is. From there, follow the marked signs and you'll have no trouble finding it.
