Bayside Hilltop Retreat
I came to visit my son and enjoy the surrounding redwoods, but ended up having to stay indoors a lot more than planned, and I was very, very comfortable in Sara's place. The kitchen has all the appliances and utensils you need; I loved the firm mattress; and, being an avid reader, I loved the comfy chair in the bedroom and the bright lighting throughout. It's situated in a very quiet neighborhood, and a lovely Café is just a stone's throw down the hill. Sara's personalized Welcome sign made me feel right at home, and she was always very quick to respond when I reached out. I just really liked the place and enjoyed my stay very much!

YE OLDE DANISH INN..Aalborg suite
what more could you dreams of when you wake up and there are dear grazing underneath your balcony, amazing experience ! well worth the minor detour we have taken.

Red Barn Cottage, Cozy and Charming
The cottage was lovely and it was super peaceful but also close enough to downtown Ferndale to walk!

Ferndale Barndominium @ferndaleairbnb; tax inc.!
Our stay at this magical Ferndale cottage was truly unforgettable. From the moment we booked, Caroline was incredibly communicative and thoughtful. Checking in before, during, and after our visit. The location couldn’t be better, just steps from Ferndale’s charming main street and a short drive to the breathtaking Avenue of the Giants. But honestly, we barely wanted to leave the cottage. It’s so cozy, beautifully appointed, and surrounded by a whimsical garden and a babbling creek. It felt like something out of a fairytale. The space is stocked with everything you might need, and Caroline went above and beyond by leaving us a few welcome treats. My partner, who’s British, lit up when he saw the “After Eight” mints.. a sweet, nostalgic touch. Every detail reflects true care and hospitality. We felt completely at home and can’t wait for the chance to return. Highly recommended!

Hatchery Road Loft
Beautiful place, wonderfully comfortable beds, quiet and peaceful surroundings. A definite must revisit again.

Casually Elegant and Cozy Home
An absolutely stunning garden; we loved reading in it and in the loft space. It's also a close drive to all the Redwoods State and National parks.

Rose Court Cottage Studio Near CPH & Arcata Plaza
A very nice place. In a great location, attractive and cosy with a patio outside. Clean and well furnished with everything we needed; a comfortable bed and nice linens. A great grocery store and cafe are very near, and there’s easy access to central Arcata. Christy provides lots of information and is very responsive to communications. We really enjoyed our visit and would love to stay again.

Ocean View Guest House
This home is perfect for a family! Plenty of communal space and the most well stocked rental kitchen we have ever had which was perfect since we made our Thanksgiving dinner there on this trip. The view from the home and deck is gorgeous!! We had an excellent stay.

Bayside Casita~Upgraded &In Town
Amy’s place is a perfect little get away in beautiful Arcata. Tucked away from downtown but still very accessible. The moment you enter you feel right at home with all the modern amenities and very comfortable bed. I will definitely be reserving this space in the future.

Quaint and Cozy Mini Home
I love this place. A convenient, close and beautiful spot to land just minutes from dunes, eureka and arcata. My dog 's happiest place is here

Luna Vista Micro-Home
We absolutely loved our stay! The house is clean and cozy, the outdoor shower is also super enjoyable. We brought our e-scooters and it was a quick trip to downtown for the farmers market and dinner. Highly recommend this location!

Adorable tiny home near the ocean and trails
We had an amazing stay. We rented the room in her house and the tiny home in the backyard because there were three of us. Irene and her partner were warm and welcoming while also giving us the rest and privacy we needed. All the spaces were clean and warm and quiet and accessible. We were so comfortable and at home! Added bonus, her dog Cider is so sweet.

Surf Sanctuary Retreat and Sauna: Beach & Redwoods
Beautiful peaceful retreat. Very close to neighboring towns and beaches, but far enough way you feel you are in the forest. The sauna was a nice treat.

Cottage in the Fairy Forest
The home was clean has a comfortable bed, kitchen is well equipped . SuperQuiet location!! We will definitely be back.

Arcata Nest
This place has everything I wanted. It’s clean, quiet, comfortable, beautiful and the best part is that the owners are lovely people. It is also located in a great place very close to great restaurants and things to explore. Thank you! I will definitely stay here next time I come to Arcata.

Third Street Suites Country Annex
Perfect place for my transition while I was relocating. It was such a peaceful and comfortable place to make my home while in the process of buying a house in the area. Sara and Peter were wonderful hosts. They made me feel like I really belonged here. Exceptionally quiet and serene home. I couldn't imagine a more inviting place to retreat to while I worked through the moving process.

Forest Grotto - Enjoy our Redwood Oasis
The Forest Grotto was absolutely beautiful. The space was clean and beautifully renovated, from decor down to the utensils, everything seemed to be very high quality and carefully selected. The natural surroundings were better than what we could have imagined, it’s tucked away in a quiet, homely neighborhood. Ms Diana went above and beyond for our family get away, we truly appreciate the kindness and warmth she welcomed us with. She was a wonderful resource for recommendations and so quick to respond.

The HumBee Studio
We truly enjoyed our time. The place was very clean, stocked, and quiet. We felt that we had privacy and comfort. It was nice to know that our host was only a text message away if we needed anything. There was also a board in the studio with suggestions of places to eat and explore which was awesome! We tried some of them and were not disappointed. Thank you for welcoming us into your home.

Blue Lake Bungalow
We loved our stay in Blue Lake! Jason was an excellent host and made sure we had all the things we needed. Check in and check out was easy. The town of Blue Lake is so cute, its a short walk to the coffee shop and town bar. I would love to stay here again!

Strawberry Rock Hideaway
Simple space with beautiful surroundings. It’s a great jumping off point for exploring the redwoods.

Redwood Bayview Cottage
Beautiful location, spacious and comfy accommodations. Bed was big and the blankets were warm. Visits from the neighbors cats was the cherry on top.

Carriage House at Historic Chapman House Arcata
Book this listing - you won't be disappointed. We used this as a base camp to do multiple day hikes in the parks around the area. The ability to come home and then just walk to a great dinner spot - great. Place is well appointed for everything you may need for an extended stay (except washer and dryer, if that's a need). Super clean, no weird 'janky' things to deal with. Would stay again.

The Cottage at Historic Chapman House Arcata
Chapman Cottage is a lovely Airbnb. The building has been beautifully redone. It was quiet and comfortable. The kitchen has absolutely everything you could need. The mattress, sheets, and towels were nice. Instructions were perfect and helpful. With the fireplace and heated bathroom floor, I was perfectly warm even during a windy storm. The hosts were very kind and helpful. There is a nice parking spot, and you can walk anywhere in Arcata easily. I can’t wait to stay again, this is the perfect place to stay in the area.
