Thank you for sharing this with us. We are happy to hear the property worked well for you and that the location felt convenient during your stay. It is great to know you enjoyed your time with us and are already looking forward to coming back. We truly appreciate your kind words know that we feel the same! Looking forward to hosting you back!
We had a great stay. Perfect location. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is because the host fees were a little steep. It doubled the cost of the rental. Other rentals’ host fees are lower. But the host was very generous to allow us to bring two dogs, so that was another bonus that we appreciated. I would definitely recommend this rental.
Perfect location for my needs. The hot tub was nice at the end of the day.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We are glad to hear the location suited your plans and that you had the chance to relax in the hot tub after your day. We appreciate you taking the time to leave a review. Looking forward to hosting you back!
Our unit was exactly what we needed - two bedrooms with two very comfortable beds, a well-appointed kitchen, a cozy gas fireplace. The location was amazing - walking distance to the town square with its shops, restaurants, and Saturday Market. Minutes from Cal Poly Humboldt, the Arcata Marsh (amazing free tour), redwoods, the bay and the ocean. A hop/skip/jump to Eureka or Trinidad. Will definitely book again!

Thank you for your detailed review. We’re glad to hear the unit met your needs with comfortable beds, a well-appointed kitchen, and a cozy fireplace. It’s wonderful that the location was convenient for exploring the town square, Cal Poly Humboldt, the redwoods, and nearby attractions. We’d be happy to welcome you back anytime!
This is a cozy place and very close to downtown, making it an easy walk. You are very close to two markets, plenty of eateries and some places with live music. The house is appointed with all the necessities, the beds are comfortable, and it is best for 2-4 people. The kitchen is easy to cook in, the cockery and cutlery fit the basics (could use a bit more selection), if you’re a coffee drinker there is just a drip coffee machine. Note: the water is very good. There is an auto kettle, so if you bring a Moka Pot or French Press you’re set. There is a selection of bagged teas and a container of ground coffee, plus the other cooking basics. As for the decor, cozy and snug. The gas fire is delightful and charming to ait by and chat the night away.
Great location just a block from the plaza. Well stocked and very clean. The hot tub and sauna were a bonus

We’ve stayed here twice for Thanksgiving with family and our dog. Both were excellent stays. We’d stay there again definitely. Great quiet comfortable location within easy walking to the Plaza.

This is our second time staying at The Drift and we have stayed at The Loft three times. We love this property. It is so clean and beautiful. It has a calming vibe. I love getting up early and having coffee out on the porch. I love how we can just park our car at the residence and just walk into town. Definitely always want to stay here when we visit Arcata.
The location was great and the house was charming. We loved the yard and ping pong. We would definitely stay there again next time we’re visiting Arcata.
