Wonderful home nestled in the forest. I highly recommend staying here. Lots of privacy and very quiet, yet minutes away from town. This home offers you the best of both worlds. Driving directions were easy to follow. Check-in was smooth. The hosts communicated in a timely manner. The kitchen had everything we needed. They also had family games to play which was a nice touch. The internet worked well. We hope to come back again.

This was a very nice place to stay. Clean, quiet and private. The setting makes you feel like you are far away from everything, but Arcata and Mckinleyville are both less than 10 min from the cabin. Will definitely try to get this cabin the next time we visit Humboldt.
