We were going leased with the layout, location and size of home. It was great for visiting our college student. Only thing that would have made it better were if kitchen had a meat thermometer, foil or plastic wrap or even some containers to store leftovers during visit. Otherwise, it was great and we would recommend!

Overall property was great. Just 2 things to mention- the dishwasher was not emptied but we just treated it like a cupboard. The master shower head is broken so if you don’t have it straight, water spurts out the top all over the bathroom. We left it straight to see the issue you’ll need to angle it down.

Great Arcata house but a dog has lived here.
Great house. Roomy. Garage. Kitchen was decently stocked. Our only complaint is that there is dog hair and very clearly a dog has lived here recently. White dog hair ended up on our packs. Our son is allergic to dogs so we weren’t psyched. Other than that it was a great place in the Arcata bottoms.

Lovely home in Arcata
I enjoyed the fact that the house was well equipped, comfortable, and clean. The front door code was problematic and I ended up having to contact the housekeeper who told me how to access an actual key. I would suggest offering renters the key option right up front to avoid the frustration of not being able to open the front door. Other than that, I really liked the house and would rent it again.

Great spot close to downtown Arcata
Brought some friends to visit my CalPoly student. This house was clean, conveniently located, great parking, great kitchen, easy check in. We had a blast hiking, shopping the Saturday market, hunting for agates at Agate Beach, visiting Sue-meg State Park. Will definitely be back!

Cute dog friendly house, walking distance to downtown
Nice house, perk being dog friendly. Check in process was easy. Good location, walking distance to downtown, felt safe. House could use some add'l amenities to make it 5 star vs 4 star. Essentials in my mind include coffee filters, foil/saran wrap which were missing. We bought and left for the next person. Some cozy blankets would be nice too while watching tv, we just had to bundle up with our sweatshirts/jackets.

I will try my best to avoid VRBO rentals in the future
This was one of the most demeaning experience renting through VRBO, which I have been doing with my family for years. I have had one other previous experience with Vacasa before which was sub-optimal, and I had thought that was an outlier. However, after this experience, I will not rent myself, and if asked, will strongly discourage others as well. I do not want to spend more energy describing the issues, I have attempted to do so to the customer interfaces I have interacted with and the experience has been infuriating at worse, and unsatisfactory at best. There are enough options outside of Vacasa, and am glad the properties that are rented through you are marked clearly so I can avoid them in the future.

Immaculate and comfortable stay
My family and I stayed here during a visit to Cal Poly Humboldt. We were immediately impressed with how incredibly clean the property was. Checking in was a bit difficult. Vacasa was supposed to send us an email with check-in information but we didn't know that. We arrived at 11p after a long drive, so trying to figure everything out was frustrating. We got the door code and Wi-Fi info after calling Vacasa. Despite that trouble, this vacation rental is still a 5-star place. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking gear, utensils, and basics (oil, spices, etc.). We didn't eat out once during our 3-night stay! My only suggestions are a medium sized sauce pan (something in between the small sauce pan and large stock pot) and a few extra trash bags. Having access to a washer and dryer cut down on the amount of clothing we had to bring with us as well as gave me the opportunity to bring home all clean clothes. The beds and linens were comfortable and there was plenty of space for 5 adults and 1 child. Thank you, Michelle (owner), for sharing your space with us!

Great place
I loved this home for its layout, furnishings, and features. We stayed for our granddaughter’s graduation and it was a perfect location to organize our celebration. The home was well stocked with essential needs and the beds were Very comfortable…not hard and not too soft! We could walk to a local bakery in the morning and get tasty treats and it was also very close to the Holly Yashi store. While we were in Arcata we visited Trinidad and the Avenue of the Giants. This home was well located to explore the hidden treasures of this area. We also enjoyed the puzzles that were provided and even added one that we brought from home and completed while we were there. In all it was a perfect place for our family. Thanks so much🥰

Clean and well stocked and welcoming to our family of 5 and our dog. We had a great home base for exploring Trinidad, the Redwoods, Arcata, and just relaxing in the house. Lots of great kitchen supplies! Our only complaints were: more blankets, more sponges and dishtowels for actually using the kitchen!
