What a great unit! Spacious and very clean. In the center of Arcata. Close to shops, restaurants and recreation. A short drive to the beach made it just perfect for us to celebrate our daughters, who is a student at Cal Poly Humboldt, birthday. Great property we will be back for sure!

Great HSU adjacent spot!

We loved our stay at the cozy townhouse, which was pleasantly spacious and well-situated. All the directions were great, and we were very comfortable during our stay. The hike to campus through the redwoods is lovely, and we appreciated being only a short drive away from downtown Aracata (in clement weather a bike ride into town would be perfect!) We’ll definitely be recommending this location to friends and family.
