Walking Distance! Cottage

My guesthouse is a few blocks from the Arcata plaza, restaurants and dining, family-friendly activities, art and culture. It is a 10 minute drive to beaches, 20 minute drive to scenic Trinidad and you can walk or bike to the marsh. You’ll love my place because it is near the heart of Arcata. Everything is at your fingertips. A couple blocks off the plaza means you will get the access without all the noise; a great combo. My place is good for couples, solo adventurers, and families with kids.

Redwood hideaway with forest access

Come relax in this guesthouse, loft converted from a 1920’s barn into a cozy redwood hideaway on 0.5 acre lot nestled in the redwoods. You will likely come across deer on the lawn and there is a peak-a-boo view of the bay on the property. You will get to experience the beautiful humboldt mist in the morning coming through the redwoods which typically burns off by mid day to allow for a sunny afternoon. Consider taking a lovely stroll to the Arcata Community Forest down the street.
