Perfect spot to enjoy Arcata
Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely upstairs home. We walked everywhere including to the farmers market, grocery stores, and a restaurant. The fireplace creates a cozy spot where we enjoyed meals and conversation. We highly recommend you consider this lovely home and enjoy the unique atmosphere of Arcata.

Not up to standards
The layout of this 2 bedroom apartment was the right size for 2 adults, and the location was perfect, but it was dirty. It was obvious the stove top, countertops, and refrigerator hadn't been cleaned. There was heavy dust on all windowsills, dust and detritus along the baseboards in the kitchen and bathroom, dust on all the shelves and kitchen lampshade, the bathroom mirror hadn't been cleaned, there were towels in the laundry hamper (which turned out to be clean), and there was a hole in the bottom sheet on one of the beds. To his credit, when I called the owner, he sent over the housekeeper who did her best to remedy some of these problems before she had to go to her next job. He even offered us a full refund if we wanted to find something else. Since it was dark and pouring rain, we decided to make the best of it, and enjoyed our stay after doing some cleaning of our own. This really could be a nice place, but needs some detailed care. The sink in the bathroom has a big crack in it, one of the lampshades in the living room is torn, and light bulbs in the 3 lamps in the living room are all different shades. On the other hand, all the electronics worked great, and the instructions from the owner, even though he wasn't on site, were clear and accurate. He and the housekeeper were also very considerate about our sensitivity to perfumes. We absolutely loved the location as we could walk just about everywhere in between exploring the redwoods, which was the reason for our trip.

This was a girlfriend trip. We loved the location, just two blocks from the Plaza. The apartment was beautifully furnished and appointed. Off-street, covered parking was a plus. The host was helpful and friendly. To sum it up, it is FABULOUS!

Stay in Arcata
Very clean. Great coin operated laundry. Adequate cookware and dishes. Host responded quickly and was able to accommodate us when we needed to extend our stay a day. Keurig needed maintenance so it was a little tricky making coffee. Unit was close to the plaza, a good thing for access to shops, grocery, but there a few sketchy folks nearby which made my teen a little uncomfortable. Also it would have been nice to have a broom available so we could clean up after ourselves.

Enjoyable stay, exactly as pictured
House was in a great location, easy to find. Walking distance to grocery store and The Plaza. Very clean, nice decor and a nice fire place. Full kitchen, coffee, tea and popcorn were on hand when we got there 😊 plenty of towels and linens. There was also a desktop fan in each room. The 2 rooms were identical and comfy. Only 2 suggestions I would make. Have a fan available for the living room (traffic is a little loud if you open the windows). And have a porcelain toilet seat instead of porous wood for sanitation purposes. This house was a delight and I would definitely stay there again.

Great spot
The house was very clean and in a great location. A short walk (a couple blocks) to two grocery stores and several restaurants. The owners were very helpful and called me mid-stay to check in. I didn’t need anything, but I knew if I did I could contact them and get help. There were nice/thoughtful small touches like Keurig pods and microwave popcorn available.

Was as advertised. Great location for the Oyster Festival. Good hot water and shower pressure- both very important to me. Beds were comfortable and the place was clean enough. The host was pleasant and responded timely to a question I had. I’m reluctant to give 10s- but that was the consensus of the group.

Cozy and convenient
While the property is located in the heart of Downtown Arcata and is walking distance to everything, the real star of this rental experience was the property manager/owner. I've rented through VRBO many times in the past and have never experienced such thorough details in advance and such a warm welcome upon arrival. We didn't have a need for anything, but it was very reassuring to know that we would likely have a quick response if there was a need. The beds were incredibly comfortable and we slept great both nights. This is such a perfect home for visiting my daughter while she is up at Cal Poly Humboldt for college for the next four years. I'll be back for certain! Thank you for opening up your home!!!

Great space & location
My son & I were there to see the redwoods. This location was in the middle of where we wanted to hike. There are restaurants & coffee that you can walk to & a grocery that’s walkable for trail snacks. We drove up from SF & made a couple of stops on the way. It’s a beautiful drive. We drove north about an hour to see the Grove of the Titans. Would highly recommend. The apartment is very spacious & clean. The beds are great after a day hiking & driving. In our case because of the rain the fireplace was awesome. Thank you Larry for sharing your place with us. It was perfect. So happy we found it.
