Cozy guesthouse tucked in the trees

Nice little guesthouse convenient to everything. Well appointed, warm and pleasant decor. We loved seeing the redwoods out of every window, and watching the tide roll in and out of the bay. Wonderfully quiet. Great central heating, much appreciated in late November!

Wonderful place in an excellent location.

The guest house has everything you need for a stay in Arcata. It is a short walk to the beautiful redwood community forest. It’s close to food stores, restaurants, etc. easy access to 101 for exploring the area. The home is clean and comfortable.
