Endless luxury and comfort await at this fully remodeled mid-century modern ranch home! This unique home away from home is conveniently situated on two secluded flat acres of lawn, offering the perfect blend of comfort, entertainment, and opulence.
When it comes to outdoor living, this modern gem of a home simply does not miss. Discover extended deck areas surrounded by gorgeous apple, fig, and pear trees that definitely add a unique touch to the scenery. Challenge your friends to an entertaining Ping-Pong match or make teams and play a fun match of pickleball or basketball - there is a half-court with lighting! When it's time to wind down and relax, gathering around the firepit to roast s'mores and tell fun stories sounds like heaven. Another great spot to unwind is the bubbly hot tub - wash all of your worries away while taking in marvelous vistas. Or you might as well hang out by the outdoor fireplace with cafe lights and comfy seating. Adjacent to this spot is an outdoor dining area with a large dining table and an outdoor smart TV. Show off your grilling skills and surprise everyone with delicious grilled treats prepared in the outdoor barbecue area with a built-in gas grill, indoor sink, and prep area.
Inside this marvelous retreat, you will find endless luxury and spaces to spread out comfortably with family and friends. Upon entering, you will discover a great room, a living room, a family room, and a library - there is enough space for everyone no matter what they are planning on doing! The great room boasts vaulted ceilings with exposed wood beams, plenty of inviting seating, a large smart TV with a soundbar, and a wood stove. Stream your favorite movies and shows, plan your next adventures, or simply break out any of the provided board games for an entertaining evening at home while the group musician plays something on the piano. The living room enjoys another smart TV and many comfy sofas as well - this is another great place to stay up to date with your series and movies. The family room invites you to unwind, relax, and possibly listen to the musician in your group play some classic tunes on the piano. The library is ideal for those who need some time on their own to catch up with favorite novels and books. All four spaces enjoy fireplaces. Remote workers will appreciate the private office with a ring light for video calls and an adjustable desk.
When mealtime comes, the chef of the group will have a blast preparing culinary masterpieces in the modern, gourmet kitchen with a gas stove and bar. The kitchen is spacious and has everything you could possibly need to whip up delicious treats and meals for the group. Coffee enthusiasts will love the small coffee corner with Keurig and drip coffee makers. There is extensive dishware and all stainless steel appliances.
Sleeping arrangements include four well-appointed bedrooms and a lofted sleeping area. The primary suite is simply out of this world. Find a spacious bedroom with high ceilings, skylights, direct access to the patio, a smart TV, a small sitting area with a fireplace, two walk-in closets, and two en suite bathrooms with a steam shower. Additional on-site perks include a Pack N' Play, a high chair, high-speed WiFi, and a fenced dog run.

5.0 / 5.0
The house is huge, it easily accommodated our 10 people. We played basketball, played baseball catch in the huge front yard, lounged in the hot tub in the cool weather. We watched football outside by the outside fireplace. This house is absolutely perfect! I will stay in this house whenever I visit the Humboldt area.
5.0 / 5.0
Tons of space and amenities. We enjoyed staying away from town. The neighborhood is quiet and quaint and definitely close enough to town for everything you would need (assuming you have your own transportation). We used it as home base for visiting sites in the area including several redwood parks and it worked great for that.
5.0 / 5.0
Wonderful home with everything you need for adults and kids. Highly recommended for large groups with kids.
5.0 / 5.0
I live locally and had most of my extended family in town for a reunion. This property could not have been better. It is located in a quiet neighborhood but close to town and was large enough to accommodate 8 adults, 2 teens and a toddler with room to spare. The house is large enough with room to be alone if needed, but cozy enough that we could all be together inside. The bedrooms and common ares were nicely furnished and very comfortable. Lots of windows and natural light. The kitchen was also large enough for folks to gather when cooking as many people like to do.
Outside is a wonderful space with a very nice gathering space by the fireplace, beautiful deck areas and lots of yard to play with the kids and dogs. Beautifully landscaped and just a very pleasant place to hang out. The outdoor hot tub was also a very nice touch.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone who needs a bit more space due to a large family or group.
5.0 / 5.0
Such an incredible space that accommodated our entire family of 12. It was a beautiful home, well maintained, and very well stocked. The house has many rooms to spread out in and was a perfect location between tide pooling and hiking trails. Would absolutely recommend and be happy to come back here for future stays.

If you are looking for a home to accommodate a large group in a beautiful setting, this is the place for you. We especially like the spaciousness, from the kitchen to the outdoor space. We used the spa, outdoor fireplace, ping pong, played football and soccer in the grass area, and enjoyed our morning coffee on the outdoor decks. The indoors had large coffee tables which made it convenient for playing games. One downside we encountered was the wifi/internet was very intermittent; one could never do computer work at this property. Our TV streaming even lost connection often. Our group also needed a second refrigerator for our food/drink which would be a good addition. The beds were comfy, linens soft. and two of our children loved their loft sleeping area. We definitely will rent this property again when we reunion in the redwoods!

There is a hole in the front yard that my foot fit nicely into, and I fell hard and got a pretty bad sprained ankle out of it on the first day and could not enjoy my time there. This hole should have been noticed and covered before. My niece later did put one of the big rocks in the front yard over it. The home is not new, and it was fairly deep. I am saying is I wasted a lot of money for the trip but I was happy to give my older sister a birthday party even though I couldn’t do anything.

We loved the peaceful & quiet neighborhood & all of the area around the house. Very roomy & comfortable beds & furniture! Kitchen was fully stocked & well laid out too! Hot Tub was clean & easy to use & a nice way to end our days!

Group of old friends celebrated our 60th birthdays together. So much lovely space to spread out or gather to play games. We brought/setup a portable pickleball court in the driveway (2' short). Kitchen was truly well stocked with spices and appliances (rice cooker, mixer, coffee maker and Keurig). Steamer in one of the master bedroom bathroomS was enjoyed by all. We ventured to Humboldt State and Redwood State/National Parks. Murphy's Market was fully stocked and close by. More than what we expected and perfect for our souls.

The house was wonderful, fit us all and allowed us to celebrate our graduate in style. House is well appointed and other than a clogged shower and too few towels, it was perfect! We lived it and would rent again if the occasion arises.

To the amenities, layout of the house and property, you can truly enjoy your stay at this house. Along with the many different areas to relax inside the house, you’ll have an enjoyable stay. Plenty of space for everyone to enjoy without being crowded together. Even the water straight from the tap is great. Also their heating system is excellent and has different zones so that you can adjust your own level of comfort. Also plenty of hot water.
The property is very peaceful and quiet, with plenty of room to enjoy the park like yard. The neighborhood is very quiet and safe. If you have kids, we highly recommend this place as the property is fenced.
It’s rural enough, yet close to town. So if you want peace and quiet with all the luxurious amenities, this is place for you. I also recommend shopping at Murphys grocery store in Arcata. They are a small store, but have everything you need.

There were 9 family members, all of. Which had space to find privacy, communal activities and much more. Couldn’t have been any better, was truly amazed at the amenities. Would go back again to spend more time with the hot tube, bbq and basketball court.

We went to spend Easter weekend with our daughter. The house was so spacious and allowed everyone to be able to spread out. Our large family enjoyed the outdoor amenities just as much as the inside. The kitchen was perfect and we could all gather around the island to prepare dinners. This house is stunning.

The second you arrive at the property, you have a large yard with endless activities from a basketball court to games the host has provided in the backyard. The home is so welcoming, cozy and clean with everything you can possibly need, yes, even a steam shower and movie room. The kitchen is a true chefs kitchen with professional appliances and all the things you'll need to cook and hangout. The real fireplace in the family room embraces the atmosphere of already feeling like you're in the woods with ample privacy. We enjoyed the hot tub, where we saw deer peacefully grazing, and enjoyed the backyard bbq and fireplace as well. We didn't want to leave! Wish we stayed for a whole week to truly soak up the property to it's full potential. Beautiful home, great host, we'll for sure be back!
5.0 / 5.0
This home is even better than the pictures! The house is spacious with multiple living areas. Every room is warm, comfortable and clean. House supplies included spices for cooking which was a plus. The outdoor space was amazing. We enjoyed the outdoor fireplace very much, and even shot some hoops in the front. We will definitely book here again.
