Humboldt Haven: Gorgeous Home for 10 w Gardens, Firepits, Forest & Bay Views

This 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom house is ideal for a group retreat to nature. With 1 full kitchen, 2 kitchenettes, 4 dining areas, 2 living rooms, front/back gardens, 2 patios, groups can gather here for time together, but also enjoy time apart. Lounge in the garden by one of the 2 propane fire pits, 2 fountains, outdoor stove, and grill, as ravens circle through the towering redwoods all around you. Just be forewarned, you might never want to leave!

This home is convertible. Keep all the doors open and you have 1 large home. Close a couple of doors and you have 3 separate apartments. Please understand this is a gathering house, but *not* a party house. House rules are strictly enforced to keep the home and neighborhood safe and pleasant for everyone.

Located in Sunnybrae Community Forest in Arcata, CA, this unique home is located at the base of the forest, such that it is surrounded by redwoods on all sides, but still gets plenty of sun. Wrapped in windows, wth peek-a-boo views through the trees of the bay, while away the hours on lavish furnishings gazing out at the magic that surrounds you.

Located directly in between Humboldt National Park and Humboldt State Park, home of the tallest old growth redwoods on the planet, Arcata is an adorably friendly little town. It is the perfect launching point for every kind of adventure Northern California has to offer. From the house, walk 5 minutes to amazing hike/bike trails, drive 5 minutes to downtown Arcata/Cal Poly Humboldt, 10 minutes to Arcata Marsh and Humboldt Bay, or 15 minutes to a variety of pristine beaches. Visit Trinidad and further north to the most extensive lagoon system in the United States. Hike through trees up to 3000 years old in either of the major redwood parks 40 minutes south and north. Or head east into the mountains to the 6 rivers area for outrageous scenery and river sports. Humboldt is all about NATURE: Hike, bike, surf, raft, kayak, paddle board. Finish your active day with excellent restaurants/bars/entertainment downtown.

This property does have outdoor security cameras (outward facing only) located at the top of the driveway and on the back patio.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 3 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 4 bedrooms. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker. Housekeeping is available on request.

Room for All!

The San Diego family traveled to Arcata for my grandson's high school graduation. The house was generously sized for adults and younger grandchildren who made the trip. The location was quiet yet close to grocery shopping in Sunny Brae. The house was very clean and neat, bath towels fluffy, kitchen fully equipped. The upstairs suite was perfect for the oldest (me) member of our troupe. I highly recommend Humboldt Haven!
