BAYVIEW BUNGALOW VACATION RENTAL is a charming sanctuary for visitors looking for distinctive vacation or longer-term accommodations. Located in the heart of our small, but lively and diverse city, Arcata’s numerous amenities are within easy walking distance.

Bayview Bungalow is centrally located, yet private, quiet, and cozy. Our property is a stand-alone, two bedroom home built in the 1940s, and recently renovated with contemporary tastes. The interior of our bungalow has a modern decor with an eclectic array of fine art and illustrations from the local area. The living room has a beautiful dining/conversation island made of local and exotic woods and surrounded by comfortable, bar-height chairs. A mini wall mounted gas fireplace provides both ambience and warmth for those cool nights (and some days!). A flat screen television with ROKU TV and wireless internet will keep you entertained and connected. There is a full kitchen, stocked with the necessities should you opt to dine in. The two bedrooms have queen-sized beds with memory-foam mattresses. Our guests can enjoy the views of Arcata’s historic Plaza, Arcata Bay, and forested horizons from the expansive porches. We do allow dogs but we charge 30.00 per day per dog.

Bayview Bungalow’s location allows you to experience all that is wonderful about Arcata while leaving your car parked. You can easily stroll to shops, restaurants, movies, the Arcata Marsh Wildlife Sanctuary, or Redwood Park trails. Bicycle rentals are also available within a few blocks if you want to branch out a bit – Arcata is very bike-friendly. Within a few steps of the front door, Wildberries Marketplace has everything you could ask for in a grocery store and more: conventional and organic foods, juice and salad bars, scrumptious deli offerings, made-to-order sandwiches and ready-to-eat dinner specials, and a coffee/espresso bar. If your looking for a late night meal try Toni's 24 Hour Restaurant.

Just minutes away by car, you can experience some of the exquisite natural features in the area - sandy beaches, wild rivers, coastal trails, and giant redwoods. Eureka’s historical jewel, Victorian-Era Old Town, graces Humboldt Bay’s waterfront with fine dining, shops, and bookstores just ten minutes’ drive to the south. Fifteen minutes north, Trinidad is a picture-perfect coastal village with a vintage lighthouse, the local fishing fleet moored in Trinidad Bay (and of course, fresh, locally-caught fish!), and our favorite wine tasting room - Moonstone Crossing, where local vintners Don and Sharon offer a fantastic selection of their award-winning wines.

Whether you are here on vacation or business, are a visiting professional, a parent of an HSU student, or are simply passing through, we hope that spending some time at Bayview Bungalow will enhance your travel experience to Arcata.
