Like family being welcomed home
From the moment we booked, we weren't just guests, we were welcomed like family. Serena had my heart when she made sure to discover what we may need and made available accommodations and games/toys for my young children to enjoy. Upon arrival we forgot the exhaustion of travel because we felt the comfort of Home. Everything one would need at home (bedding, towels, kitchenware, clean washer/dryer/detergent, family games) was generously provided as others have described. The back yard had good lighting and the home felt safe and secure. The home and courtyard were beautifully maintained reflecting the host's pride and love of their home. The cleanliness, attention to detail, generosity, and warm welcome from the hosts speak to their kindness and love for people. Serena communicated with me like a sister or a best friend, and her love is what I will remember most about this stay!

A real gem in Humboldt County
Beautifully decorated and appointed property. About 12 minutes away from Arcata. Easy on and off the highway. Very quiet neighborhood. A great location from which to explore the area. Responsive and communicative host. We will be back!

Family Visit to The Redwoods
The Blue Lake property was perfect for our family of four. The place has a great and creative vibe about it. Everything we needed for a comfortable stay was there. We will definitely return to the property again as there is so much to see on the north coast.

Fantastic Stay
It’s simple. Stay here. If you’re looking for a cozy, a little off the path home that has perfect amenities and all your needs, this home is it. The owner, Serena, was exceptionally accommodating and went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. It was so nice to show up to some welcome gifts and a personalized card (never experienced this with any other owner). She really knew how to make sure that your stay was all you hoped it would be. The house is a perfect distance to all the sites and experiences for Northern California and Humboldt County have to offer. The kitchen is fully stocked and there is a grill for all your outdoor cooking needs. The privacy of the patio area is fantastic for the cool evenings. Bedrooms are exceptionally comfortable as well. My family and I felt very much at home and always looked forward to returning here after a day out in all the surrounding areas. If you are visiting during the summer months, there isn’t any AC in the house, so you’ll need to keep the windows open in the evening to get that cool northern air. Note, you will hear the traffic on the local roads if you leave the windows open throughout the night. If I ever find myself in northern Cali again (I’m from MI), I’ll stay here again without hesitation. Last note, visit Mad River Brewing in Blue Lake during your stay for great brews and food.

Clean and Comfortable - Wonderful stay
Serena was fabulous, communicative, helpful. and SO accommodating for our family trip. To make things easier for us, she set us up with self check in for our late arrival and had a travel crib already set up for our baby to go directly to bed when we finally got off the road. During our visit we kept finding more and more thoughtful touches - sanitized toys for our daughter to play with, a whole library of children's books for bedtime, tasty local coffee & taffy. In addition to the sweet touches, photos didnt do this home justice. The master shower gave me big renovation aspirations for our own home - so nice! The outdoor area was perfect for letting our kid toddle about while we sipped coffee, and we truly got to relax and unwind during our stay here. Truly cannot recommend Serena's place enough - we are already planning our next trip back. Absolutely lovely.

Lovely hidden gem!
Perfect stay in beautiful Humboldt County. The house is up on a hillside and the view is absolutely as advertised. Easy access to all the state and national park attractions. The hosts were so communicative and even provided custom hiking recommendations for our family. Would definitely stay again!

A beautiful and cozy home, well-appointed and meticulously maintained in a welcoming community that abounds with natural wonders. The owners pay attention to details that make the difference between a place to sleep and a stay to remember. If you are going to be in the Arcata area (and why wouldn’t you be?) then you can’t go wrong with this one.

Great place!
We just stayed at the property for our son's graduation from Cal Poly Humboldt. From the beginning of the rental process to the end we were pleased with how smooth everything went. Serena was a wonderful, thoughtful host who made every attempt to make our stay perfect. The property was perfect for a relaxing space to celebrate our son's big day. The house had everything we needed to cook, relax and enjoy our stay! We would definitely stay here again!
