Cute cottage with nice comfy spaces. Would have been excellent if the yard was fully enclosed, but the pup biscuits and towels to wipe feet were great. Also the shower was nice hot water and good pressure. Well appointed kitchen, we made a nice spaghetti dinner. Good location to check out the area.

Charming, comfortable house and property! We were worried there might be constuction noise from next door but we didnt hear anything the entire stay. Nice quiet neighrborhood and market just down the street was super convenient. It was a little tight with 4 adults and one bathroom but we managed. Large beds were comfortable but the two twins were a bit "springy" All.in all a great stay!

The house is a cute, little place that was just about right for my family. We stayed here before 2 years ago and it was just as good the second time. The house itself is pet friendly, but as you can see in the photos the yard isn't fully fenced. Not a problem for us, but if you have a runner be aware. The house is walkable to the plaza and many restaurants.

Cute place and great for a two night stay. Nice walk into town and easy to park. House was fine, nothing special and no extras. Had what we needed and big enough for the two of us, would be perfect for a family too. Easy instructions and no problem getting in. Was a bit humid overnight in there, so not sure what it would be like in summer, as we went in September. Super communicative and friendly host which was great, although tone of the written 'rules' was not really welcoming.

The Potter's Bungalow was delightful! It had everything our party of 5 needed. It is attractive, clean, comfortable, quiet, and located in a really cute area. We walked to the Farmer's Market. If I return to the area, this is where I want to stay.

Adorable Bungalow

Cute, clean and cozy! Wonderful amenities - everything you need is here! Outstanding communication from property management and loved the shower! Great location for a starting point to Trinidad, Klamath, Fern Canyon, and all the incredible Redwood hikes. Incredibly close to town center of Arcata and some awesome restaurants. Also, Northern California has some of the nicest locals we have encountered in our frequent travels. Book this place!

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.
