Wonderful home in a very nice neighborhood
The "Downtown Drift" is an awesome place to stay! The house was very cozy and clean. Our family appreciated the ping pong table and jacuzzi in the backyard, and the close proximity to Arcata Plaza. I highly recommend this place!

Nice place, good location
We enjoyed staying at this Downtown Drift. There are lots of walkable restaurants and shops. Redwoods and beaches are less than an hour away, most are within 30 minutes. The property was clean, tidy and had everything we needed.

Downtown delight
Property manager was very friendly and responded quickly when we had a question. The property was located close to many shops, etc. it was very relaxing. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a cozy place to stay. It's right across the street from the largest, most beautiful tree we had ever seen.

Great Location, but More Downtown Than Expected
Great place and great service. The pictures made it seem more secluded than it was being that it’s very close to neighbors downtown and it’s a shared backyard and walls with others guests. House was very clean, comfortable, and we enjoyed the stay. Great for anyone who wants to walk downtown to restaurants and shops.

A Delightful Stay in a Charming Victorian House
We had an incredible stay at this Victorian house near Redwood National Park. The neighborhood's Victorian charm added to the experience. The park was easily accessible, and the nearby Co-Op was fantastic. The kids loved the hot tub. The house was beautifully maintained, with comfortable beds and a well-equipped kitchen. The host was responsive and attentive. Highly recommended!

Arcata by foot
This property is located within easy walking distance of the plaza. The Saturday farmer's market was an added bonus. Delicious dinners, yummy breakfasts and local pubs are within blocks of the property. The grounds are nicely landscaped and the yard was great, allowing us to play with the dog.

Sweet downtown cottage
Beautiful property with a cozy feel. Great space in the rooms and comfortable beds. Edge of downtown where you can walk to anywhere. We loved the outside seating, hot tub, and sauna. We only wished there were throw blankets to cozy up to. Can’t wait to stay again.

Easy to find and nicely located. The hot tub clean and pleasant. Furnishings, kitchen, etc clean and in good shape. Issues: no hooks or clothes hangers in 2nd bedroom, no place for suitcase or chair (took one from LR). Overall a very nice place to stay.
