Enjoyed Our Stay
The property was well maintained and clean. I would recommend putting black out curtains on the side of the house that faces the grocery store, Wi-Fi/TV did not work well and there was no complimentary wine as described. Despite these things we enjoyed our stay and would recommend them. Plenty of linens and comfortable beds. Very cute bungalow.

Clean, close to town
Clean house, pictures match the size and style of the home. We had issues with wifi and the kitchen is poorly stocked for cooking at home. Mattresses could be upgraded, especially the 2 twin beds.

Enjoyed our stay in Arcata!
The property was clean and comfortable for our group (3 couples - family - attending wedding) although the third bedroom, with twin beds, is best suited for kids. The property met all of our needs for the long weekend. The location was very convenient although the empty lot next door detracted from the otherwise neighborhood feel of the area. (The lot is depicted in the pictures so we knew it when renting.) Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the house to others staying in Arcata.

Potter’s bungalow needs a bit of TLC! One burner on stove not working, drippy kitchen faucet, deadbolt on door to carport impossible to open from outside, chipped formica bathroom vanity, shower curtain track in direpair. Nip these things in the bud and it will be charming again!

What a great home right in downtown Arcata, the house was fully stocked with everything you’d need in both kitchen and bathroom. The yard was perfect, we grilled using the bbq so convenient right off the kitchen. What a gem!! Thank you, Amie

Cute Bungalow
Great location, super clean and welcoming. Neighborhood was nice we enjoyed sitting on the front porch. They let us check in a little early after asking which was huge since we came from a 7 hour drive. Only thing I would suggest is cloth or black out curtains in the bedrooms. The light from the next door market was so bright it woke me up at night multiple times. Overall a fantastic stay locking forward to coming back. You can also rent from them directly to save on some fees.

Perfect for my 2 adult sons and me
Loved visiting with family in a home setting. Cooking, eating, and movies. Too bad the plants were all dead and the windows were really dirty with spider webs. Weird small shower too. We used the BBQ one night for steaks which was awesome. The generous driveway allowed my son's to do some work that was necessary. And their is a little grocery store next door.

Charming and CLEAN
We had a wonderful stay, and we’re very impressed with the cleanliness and the attention to detail and every last little thing we might need for our short stay. My husband is generally not a fan of staying in a rental such as this, and he generally ops for a hotel room, but he said that this stay here has changed his mind. That is really saying a lot and we can’t think our hosts enough for making it the most comfortable stay in a Vrbo that we have ever had! We will be back.

Great for short stay
House was great for short stay. Kitchen had everything we needed and overall the house was comfortable. Neighborhood does not have a lot of street lights which makes walking the dog in the evening a bit difficult. WiFi was not reliable if more than one person trying to access email - created buffering with internet TV.

A nice little house near downtown Arcata. If you like to walk it's close enough to the Plaza, but very bikeable or a short drive. The house itself was really pleasant, but I really enjoyed eating dinner in the backyard.
