About this property
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.

Very good

This place was a perfect little spot for our Arcata getaway! It’s a great location for an easy little walk into town for food and drinks and shopping, and also super convenient for a big day of Redwoods adventures, just a short drive away from some incredible trails and views. The house was cozy and clean and a great homebase for us for a couple of days. Highly recommend!
The kitchen was fully equipped for cooking. Nice hot shower.Easy access to university. Parking right out front.Quiet neighborhood. There are several cottages on the property. Ask the owner which unit you are in.
Host arrived at property right when we did, very clean & great kitchen, outdoor deck

Just ok. Place inside and out needs some love which is fine but it wasnt clean. Hair and dust all over, moldy coffee maker, stains on sheets and lacking some basics like pillows cases for all pillows and top and bottom sheets. Bummer because the place could be cool but wouldn’t stay again.
Kitchen was perfect. The back yard was well fenced.One of the beds had no fitted sheet, just a regular sheet for the bottom sheet, no top sheet.Heaters performed very well. It was great to be able to get this place for just one night.
Nice and quiet, wonderful for being so close to the freeway. My contact was very helpful and it had a nice, well secured yard for the birds we were traveling with.
Great place as promised, kitchen stocked, clean, nicely laid out, super close to Humboldt State. Prop manager easily available if needed, which we didn't - no issues at all

Inside was great. outbuildings and property were not welcoming. front door lock wasn't working so we had to leave unlocked when we were away.
Coffee maker was used and no instructions to use . Sliding Door was sticky and hard to shut. Trash container outside that is used to dispose of pet waste was full of water. No ice maker. Bed was uncomfortable. Definitely not worth the 558 we paid
