Bayside Retreat Family Friendly, Private.

The ultimate gathering place! Centrally located, yet in a private neighborhood. Just minutes from hwy101, and minutes from either Eureka or Arcata. The house is a perfect jump off point for adventuring, and is the perfect space to come back to. Spacious and spread out, multiple wings of the house allow for privacy even with a larger group. Multiple sliding doors lead out to the many outdoor and patio areas, making it perfect for an indoor outdoor flow. The backyard is private and fully fenced.
The space
Spacious and inviting, the house is fully stocked with the essentials for your stay in beautiful Humboldt County. Multiple living spaces make it perfect for families and larger parties to gather and make memories in a private and peaceful setting. Ample indoor and outdoor space allows you to take full advantage of Humboldt’s temperate climate. Each bedroom is equipped with a comfortable and clean place to sleep as well as bedside tables and plenty of storage space. The quirky bathrooms provide a great shower or bath and lots of space to store toiletries and other personal effects. Wifi strength is best in the living room and surrounding spaces. There is a smart TV in the living room that is logged into Netflix, Discovery+, HBO Max, YouTube.

There are two distinct wings of the house. The East Wing includes the main bedroom with a luxurious CalKing mattress, large walk-in closet, and bonus vanity. Next to the main bedroom is another spacious bedroom with a king-sized mattress. A full bathroom with tub and stall shower are located in the East Wing. Separated by sprawling living spaces, the West Wing contains two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with a full, the laundry room, and another full bathroom.

Sliding doors throughout the house allow for easy access to the beachy sunroom and large backyard. Enjoy the bar located off the main entrance, and unwind in the two living spaces with plenty of seating for a larger party. There are tables and chairs for up to ten guests to sit and enjoy a meal. The kitchen has plenty of countertop space to cook, all with sight-lines to the living and dining areas, making it easy to connect with the guests in your party.

A public park with a 0.5 loop that winds through new growth redwoods is located just down the street. The neighborhood is extremely safe, and the neighbors are spread out enough that The Retreat feels totally private. There is plenty of space to park in the large driveway and carport including room for a trailer or RV.
Guest access
Enjoy use of the entire home, including the backyard, carport, and laundry room.

Great place for the family!
Everyone had plenty of space to spread out (4 adults, 2 teenagers) which was really nice after a long day in the car and/or on the trails. Landscaping made the house feel private. Our giant Ford Expedition fit and could maneuver comfortably in the driveway. Host provided local recommendations which were really helpful, and was responsive for any questions. Check in / out was simple and house rules were minimal, basic and straightforward. House is central to both Arcata and Eureka which made finding food easy, and 30-45mins from the Redwoods National and State Parks which is why we went. Would stay here again if/when visiting the area in the future!

Funky house in a great location
We had just a few nights in this quirky place but it worked out great for our family of eight. It was very convenient to travel to the local parks and forests.

Touring Humboldt
We came to stay for the weekend and take a tour of Cal Poly Humboldt for our oldest daughter that graduates in May. The house was perfect! We arrived late and each picked our rooms, the teenagers stayed in tone wing and we stayed in the other with our youngest in the 4th bedroom closer to us. The house has the perfect amount of kitchen appliances and pans. The yard was perfect for the dogs to run around in and take care of their business. The art on the walls is what I really enjoyed, very nice paintings and art from around the world. Thank you for hosting my family!
