Easy walking distance to historic shopping area and boardwalk—nice weekend getaway

Charming house. We enjoyed its easy access to the waterfront area.
Batteries in remote for heater/fireplace may need replacing. We were unable to lower temperature which would have saved owner money.
Scented laundry detergent or fabric softener for bed linens caused allergic reaction to one of our party. I would recommend not using scents because many people are sensitive.

We had a delightful stay while in town for our grandmothers memorial. My husbands extended family all live in Eureka and this was the perfect location for all our gatherings. The house had a bit of a French feel to it and was large enough for my family of 4 plus our dog. We’d definitely use again when in the area.

We are a multigeneration family with 2 dogs. This is our honest review. We needed a place with a bedroom and bathroom on the first floor for our elderly father and room for four adults, 1 child, and a couple of small dogs. The location was near downtown, and we quickly got to different parts of Eureka to see family. Unfortunately, we didn't get to enjoy the gazebo due to the weather, but it looked lovely. My family liked the living room for gathering, the kitchen had most things we needed (more than I've seen at other places), the bathrooms were stocked (loved the number of towels) and there was a washer and dryer (which we needed).
If you are traveling with people who can't navigate a narrow steep staircase, this might not be your place. It is clear in the photos but none of us paid attention when booking. Both bathrooms are downstairs so you will need to navigate that staircase if you need the restroom. All the rooms have the basic furnishings you might need (dresser, lamps... obviously bed). The beds are full size upstairs and very springy (ie noisy for those wanting adult time). As for comfort, they are okay for a couple days but beyond that everyone struggled to sleep through the night. Both sink in the middle and make noise with every move.
The shower head in the main bathroom might need to be replaced (it was a trickle) but having a bathtub with a child was a godsend so we seriously did not care about taking a shower. Water was hot and bathroom was clean! Heidi was very responsive!
The neighborhood is... close to things but not exactly walkable and honestly that is the state of many parts of Eureka right now (we are frequent visitors with immediate family there). It rained the whole time and no one was out but my walks with the pups were fast and I kept a good eye out. We've stayed at the Carter House Inn and had the same experience walking in the area. There was some late night activity/commotion with the garage across the street (roaring engines, some yelling). Happened a couple nights but that was it. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting to be near downtown and loves classic Eureka old home charm. It is super cute and Heidi was awesome to deal with (earthquakes struck right before our trip, so I messaged her a bunch).

My family stayed at the yellow cottage while we were in Eureka attending a wedding. The house was perfect! cute, comfy, clean, all the necessary items to do some light cooking and a great floor plan. My husband and I stayed in the D/S bedroom with an ensuite bathroom and our children and their kids used the bedrooms upstairs. The kitchen and living rooms were spacious enough too accommodate all of us. Heidi, the host was always prompt and friendly with responses. we enjoyed our stay and would definately stay again if visiting Eureka! Highly reccommend!

Great place to stay to see Redwoods and Northern California coast
My husband, my adult children and I enjoyed the charm of this property as we began our discovery of Northern California and its Redwood forests and coastline. The house and yard were charming and very close to old town Eureka and the water. We enjoyed the three bathrooms. Only minor issue was that the two guests rooms were upstairs and the bathroom that serves those two rooms in downstairs. I guess we didn't read the listing carefully, but I am happy we missed that as the stay in this lovely house was worth it.

Great Redwoods Getaway
We stayed here for along weekend to see all of the Redwoods parks and sites in the area. The house was just as pictured, cute, comfortable and very clean with lots of space for our family. There was an issue with the heater when we arrived, and the owner picked up my call, immediately resolving the problem! You will not regret staying here!

Cute house and we loved the fireplace. Walking distance to the main downtown area, but had to walk through some sketchy areas to get there.

Great little place!
This place is cute! Charming and within walking distance to downtown. It was pretty cold inside but I read reviews beforehand and was prepared with house slippers. There was a heater for the downstairs bedroom so that was nice. The place had everything we could have needed and was very clean. Also a great jumping point from all the amazing things there are to do in each direction. Avenue of the Giants was stunning!

Awesome cabin
The cabin was just as it stated in the advertising. We loved it!. Next time we will come in the summer when we can enjoy the amenities in the area. The fireplace was perfect. I would only suggest portable heaters in the upper rooms.

Victorian immersion in Eureka
Cute, well decorated and well maintained home. All the bases were covered as far as amenities go, and off-street parking was a real plus. We totally enjoyed our stay and will definitely book it on subsequent visits. I highly recommend it to anyone coming to Eureka for a visit.

Perfect for our group
Great house. The neighborhood is more industrial, so it got a little noisy early in the morning. We enjoyed our 2 days so much. My only thought for this cute house? Lightbulbs. We really wanted to play Rumikube at the dining room table, but after sunset the room was just too dark. We finally brought a lamp from the bedroom. The kitchen is very well stocked, the beds are comfy, parking was easy. The location was very easy to navigate. Thank you!

Great property, OK location
The property was very nice - clean, spacious and comfortable. Easy to get to key areas in downtown etc. The facilities and amenities are good - WIFI was OK, it needed to be rebooted daily for some reason.
While the house is adorable the neighborhood is just OK - walking the dog a few blocks away and it gets run down quickly.

Little yellow cottage in Eureka
Our little cottage was exactly as described, clean and neat and adorable! Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

We stayed here for a month. It was our bright and cheery sanctuary where we relaxed between excursions. The renovated house from the 1890’s was such a pleasure to be in that on several days my kids just wanted to stay ‘home’. The art on the walls was exclectic (in a good way). This was the first time our kids had the opportunity to use a old fashioned gas oven/stove. It was close enough to Old Town Eureka that we walked whenever we went there. It was also convenient to Hwy 101 for our other outings to the redwoods, beaches and other towns. Our host Heidi was wonderful. She responded immediately to concerns and exceeded our requests. We have nothing but praise for her as a host. One note: you will hear sirens fairly often since it is located near both the police and fire stations. This just became background noise after a day or so.

Rose redwoods review
We enjoyed our stay. The house was conveniently located, clean, and had everything we needed. Laundry was in a separate room at the back of the house. Neighborhood was quiet at night. Ample space to move around, loved the gas fireplace in the living room to take the chill off!

Post Vaccine Reunion
After the long haul through quarantine I was able to come together with my brother who I hadn’t seen in over a year. The house was lovely and having not seen each other in so long we spend most of our time in the house hanging out. A slight hiccup in the correspondence with VRBO for check-in was fortuitously circumvented by a serendipitous encounter with the owner, Heidi. Smooth sailing from then on. Would definitely stay here again in the future. (The stairs are VERY steep, just thought that should be mentioned.)

Cozy home away from home!
My husband, daughter, and three dogs stayed in this bright and cheery place for a full week while we got our daughter's rental home ready in McKinleyville. While the neighborhood is a mix of industrial and residential, we felt safe and comfortable here. The dogs were able to use the back yard area and we took them to a couple of local dog parks as well, which worked great This is just a beautiful home with so much charm, and Eureka really had everything we needed, especially with multiple trips to the hardware store and lots of food delivery options after long workdays. We were also able to make home-cooked meals in the well-appointed kitchen. Literally, everything we needed was available, and we were so grateful to be able to bring our pets. My only suggestion for future travelers is to really plan for cold weather with slippers, extra blankets, sweaters etc. as it is an older home and the heating is all from the gas fireplace in the living room. An electric mattress pad warmer in the master bedroom was a big help but for cold mornings and evenings it's a nice convenience to have those things : )

The house is very cute. We enjoyed time on the gazebo in the back yard. We were a bit intimidated by the older gas stove but it worked great. Overall had a very pleasant stay.

Clean, good size home
Pros: good size home for 4 people. Nicely updated kitchen and bathrooms. Fireplace heats whole house. Beds very firm but comfortable. Close to town. Quiet downstairs. Cons: staircase VERY steep. Would not suggest for very young or elderly. Too close to Hwy 101 so noisy upstairs. No backyard fence so not good for dogs. TV size of computer monitor. Couches are lovely Victorian style but not comfy. No window covering for downstairs bathroom which can be seen from other homes. Small master bedroom. If you’re not used to homeless people do NOT stay in Eureka. We’re weren’t bothered by them at all. Comments about area being sketchy are inaccurate. Typical seaside town with excellent amenities. Good price for what you get!

Pet friendly, clean and cute
The house is clean and tidy. The best part about this house for us is “pet friendly “. It is very difficult to find a pet friendly hotel around Eureka or Crescent city. This house allows us to stay with our 2 small dogs. It is very cute and clean. We love the decoration of the house. The house is very close to 101 freeway. The owner response to my email is very quick and understanding with the current COvid situation. When driving to the house the neighborhood seems to be a bit concerning but we didn’t have any problem with security or safety. For us, it was a pleasant stay. We do not have any complaint. Target or Mcdonald or Tesla super charger is 10 minutes away from the house. We DoorDash our dinner from the local restaurant. Everything was great! Thanks for sharing your lovely home.

Cute house
This is a very cute and clean property. The manager was very prompt to respond when the house electricity went out on Thanksgiving morning. The house is dog friendly but there is no fenced yard so we had to take our dogs out on leashes. The gazebo was fun to hang out in.

Family fun
I traveled with my husband, children and dog. The house was so cute and exactly what we expected. We loved staying there. The house was clean and the check in and out process was so easy. I absolutely loved that we were able to bring our giant fur baby with us. The neighborhood was different than I expected not terrible but probably not the best. But close to everything. Not a lot of parking space but ok for us as we only had one vehicle. All in all great stay.
