We loved the house! The river was amazing.

This was our second visit to this house. We loved it as much as the first time. We need to come back in the summer so we can enjoy the river more, but it’s so cozy for a winter stay. We love it.

Our family had a more than fabulous time at the Elve Huset. The kitchen was spectacularly equipped, very helpful since my son loves to chef things to the extreme! The beds were all comfortable. The living room sofas made for comfy extra sleeping areas. The multiple decks provided quiet private spots while accommodating group laughter areas! We’re already planning for next year…except we NEED more days!

All it was advertised and more comfortable and cozy something to discover wherever you looked.

We had a wonderful stay at Diane & Larry’s house. Peaceful, relaxing, beautiful. The house was clean and very well furnished and equipped. Some difficulties contacting property manager prior to stay. But once that was cleared up, everything was perfect.

Includes everything you need or want for a get away.

This place is truly amazing. The location is in a beautiful area with a river right behind it. The two patios that are overlooking the river are private and perfect for relaxing. The house is incredibly nice. The furnishings are comfortable. The host has done an awesome job putting things around the house to keep you entertained. Everything about this place is perfect. One of our favorite places we have ever stayed.

We are four women friends who have traveled together for over 30 years. We had not been able to be together since before covid. This was the perfect spot to just rest, talk, and play games. It is close to the Redwoods and the ocean. Since we were on the river we had the best of all worlds. I highly recommend this home. It had a combination of quirky and amazingly gorgeous. We plan to be back. Thank you so much for the wonderful hospitality

A pleasant place to relax and enjoy quiet and access to the river. Access to an excellent hiking trail into the National Forest is just a few minutes away.

Magical location on the Smith River. Twenty mins from Jedediah Redwoods, an hour from Del Norte and it's directly in the Smith River recreation area. The house is perched on an overlook to the river with 3 beautiful decks. The owner's sweet has a fantastic view and you can listen to the river as you sleep. Everything you need for a comfortable relaxing vacation. Highly recommend!

We loved our stay. The back yard was amazing and we wished we had more to spend there.

Love the quirkiness of the house and those other options throughout the house. Great master bedroom.

We loved the space! Cozy and beautiful. Fireplace was great, lots of wood supplied. Fossils, minerals and woodwork were all amazing. The kitchen was well stocked, much appreciated! The view of the river from the upstairs room was such a wonderful way to wake each morning. So peaceful. Hoping to stay again in the summer time.

It rained during our stay, but we were able to have a peaceful and cozy rest in the house equipped with everything. The house was well organized as stated on the list, and the owner's touch in every corners made me feel happy. Above all, the house maintained a warm temperature despite the cold outside temperature, indicating that it well-built house. It was raining so I couldn't enjoy the yard, but I think it's good to visit from spring to autumn as the outdoor deck is well equipped by the stream. It's definitely a place I want to visit again.

Close to redwood forests, gorgeous Oregon style beaches, nice towns, a rushing river, scenic gorges—lots to see and explore. Comfortable, quirky house full of fossils and minerals and handmade artifacts. Great fireplace, big complete kitchen. Nice neighbors, too.

Family of 5 had a cozy calm 4 day mini-cation. Traveled into Crescent City a few times about 30 minutes one way. Nice quiet place to stay.

Very restful and lovely place right on the river. Loved it.

My family was in a very stressful time of life, motel hopping while waiting for our home to be built. Finding this beautiful oasis was such a blessing . Something about morning coffee on the deck watching the river put life back in order.

Omg what an amazing property. The outdoor area overlooking the river was more than we could have hoped for. We spent pretty much all day out there, playing in the river, and enjoying the deck area. Super private. Nice spacious house. I would recommend maybe some newer furniture, bedding, and towels. Otherwise, we loved it here!

This is a magical place to truly unplug and unwind! It's a bit remote, which is what makes it an ideal place to settle in and enjoy the nature around you.

Great spot! Convenient to access smith river swimming, redwoods and the coast. Eating on the deck listening the river is amazing

Very nice house and property on river with outdoor relaxing spots. Did find the lack of instructions for some things like the TV frustrating, but overall, a pleasant comfortable stay.

One of the most interesting properties I have ever stayed at. Strong positives and negatives. Amazingly unique house with wonderful master. On the river with access. Fantastic woodwork and unique items displayed throughout. Abundant beautiful trees, shrubs and flowers. Hummingbirds were a bonus. The downside was the kitchen was not clean, ants and flies in abundance. Smell in house from overflowing trash in garage. Sheets in master were old, heavily soiled and need to be replaced. Once we cleaned the kitchen and got rid of the flies, it was a pleasant stay for the most part. The house and property itself overcame alot of the negatives. Manager of property did send Cleaning person over to help, but we had already cleaned kitchen at that point. Disappointed after talking with manager about issues, he has not offered to refund the first day's stay or at least the cleaning fee, but maybe I should have pushed for it. I still recommend this property because I think manager will correct issues and this property is that special.

Upon arrival, I was completely overwhelmed with the beauty of the back decks, views of the Smith River, flowers, and paths of the back yard area. So beautiful. The house was fully stocked with anything we might need including inner tubes for the river. I grew up in Gasquet and know a few locals. They helped me find the best path to the swimming hole near us, and it happened to be one I frequented as a kid in the 70’s. Such great memories. Got to have a few of those friends over for a bbq. Had so much fun. Great place to stay. Loved it! We will be back!! Highly recommend.

Thank you for opening your family home to guests, we enjoyed staying there for our 3 nights in Gasquet, visiting the Jedediah Smith State Park and Brookings, OR. The entire home is such a comfortable space and the yard and back deck is so fun! The three of us hung out on the swing for morning, afternoon and evening talks, meals and just to take in nature and the view and sounds of the Smith River.All that we needed in the kitchen was there for us and that was awesome Thank you so much️

The entire process was streamlined and successful

The property was wonderful. It was in a beautiful location. It was large enough for my adult children to have their own space. The property owner was slow to return emails and phone calls but it worked out in the end.

Loved the location and views. Very clean. Nice quiet neighborhood. I did reach out to the host a couple of times and got no response.

The property is gorgeous! The house is very comfortable with great views of the river. So much to do nearby with redwood trails and the ocean all within minutes drive. Also great communication with the owner. We will be returning.

Easy check in. Good communication. A+ all around

This is a comfortable, lovely house on the Smith River. Highlight is how much it does to take advantage of the location - full views from the upstairs bedroom, beautiful decks out back. Great location for touring the redwoods or outdoor activities on the Smith
