We chose the boathouse to have our small dog with us. But it was a bonus for us too. It is darling decorated in the nautical theme. Our host thought of so many things to make it homey. I wasn’t sure what to expect, like napkins, paper towels and tissues, so didn’t have to go to the market right away. We would rebook if we are going to the north coast. Sorry didn’t take pictures!

This was the perfect spot for my trip. Kate is warm and accommodating of anything that I needed. The kitchen was stocked with drinks and condiments and my favorite, coffee (also tea for those who might prefer that). The small patio was a wonderful spot to relax, rest and read.

Stunning Property

This place is a true hidden gem. The house was immaculate—spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly inviting. Kate welcomed us so warmly upon arrival that it immediately felt like home. After a long day of travel, it was exactly what we needed. As a thoughtful gesture, she even sent me home with some flowers. We would absolutely stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Boathouse! It was just what we needed while spending the weekend in Eureka for a wedding. Comfortable bed, well-stocked, and the kitchen is a huge plus! Great views of the bay as well. Highly recommend this gem of a VRBO.

This is our second stay at this cottage. It's very quiet in location. Our host is a lovely lady and very accommodating. The cottage was clean and stocked with supplies to help if you forget something. There's a small kitchenette and nice bath with shower. The decor is beach appropriate and very stylish. I would highly recommend this cottage to a couple wanting timr away.

It has manageable limitations of space regarding entry and parking. It was a good location for us allowing easy connection to Eureka bike trail system. Modest in size and yet completely functional with comfort. An artistic beauty of furnishings with excellent quality of kitchen and overall amenities.

The Beach House

The beach house is in a quiet location with a beautiful view of the Humbolt Bay. The accommodations are clean, well kept and comfortable. The kitchen is fully stocked and the host provides coffee, tea, waters, sodas and spices. It has the best kitchen of any place that I have stayed. The bathroom is spacious and the host provides all of the toiletries that one may need. The living space is very comfortable, full of natural light and beautiful views. This is the second time we have stayed here and it is the only place that I will stay in the future.

A cozy home away from home!

We enjoyed our stay at the Boathouse! This is also our first time using VRBO, literally registered to be able to book the boathouse, it was worth it! The nautical theme gives it great character and makes the space a home, it has all the amenities you need while away on vacation. Kate and her pup Ollie were very welcoming, greeting us as we arrive and took the time to say goodbye as we checked out. They were truly a very important part of what makes our stay memorable. Other bonuses include the sound from the pond feature that made it extra relaxing when we opened the windows and the sunset view being spectacular. The guesthouse is close to the freeway and town proper, a perfect spot for anyone exploring Eureka or Humboldt county. Would definitely recommend this place.

Boathouse the best

Our stay here could not have been better. The Boathouse was the perfect property for my husband and I. It was quiet , just the right size, stocked with all the right stuff. Kate was a wonderful host and so accommodating. We felt very safe and relaxed. So nice to stay in a reasonably priced home as opposed to a noisy hotel. Easy access to the local area. We highly recommend and will definitely stay the next time we come to town. Great distant view of the bay and so nice to hear the fog horn in the distance.
