Garden Pond Retreat~Hot tub & Fire Pit!

Come explore the Redwoods, soak in the hot tub, relax on the wrap around covered porch, gaze out to the distant sea, cozy up by the fire pit, feed the Goldfish in the backyard pond and listen to the waterfalls. This 2500 square foot home is a haven for the soul inside and out. Perfect getaway for nature lovers, couples and families with older children! Garden Pond Retreat sits right above a forested coastal trail complete with a bridge and creek. This trail offers a short walk to the Mad River with views beyond to the ocean. Vaulted ceilings and plenty of windows invite the garden and seaside views inside.

On the main level guests will enjoy gleaming hardwood floors, a well appointed living room w/ large Smart T.V., dining room with seating for 6 and a fabulous open and connected kitchen- family room made cozy by a gas fireplace. Enjoy playing games by the fire with over 20 fun board games to choose from! Cooks will love preparing meals in the spacious, fully stocked kitchen complete with a large island and breakfast bar. The family room even includes a desk for guests needing to work while traveling. There is a half bath on this level. Upstairs are 3 spacious bedrooms. The Main bedroom has distant ocean views, offers a King bed and attached bathroom with a large oval bathtub and separate shower. The second bedroom overlooks the incredible gardens, pond and wooded vistas below. The third bedroom has a king bed and a small t.v. for DVD's only. This bedroom also has gorgeous garden & wooded views. The 2nd upstairs bathroom has a combination tub/shower. All of the bedrooms upstairs are carpeted adding to the comfort and warmth of this house.

This home is filled with class and style. Each room is decorated with one of a kind artwork. Centrally located in Mckinleyville, Garden Pond Retreat is just 10 minutes to the bustling college town of Arcata and 10 minutes from the seaside village of Trinidad, and less than 2 miles from the local Airport. Just footsteps from the 5-plus mile hiking/biking/equestrian section of the California Coastal Hammond Trail that stretches from the Arcata Bottoms northward to Clam Beach County Park in McKinleyville. The trail has been voted "best place to walk, jog, or bike" in Humboldt County. If you want to take a bike ride in Humboldt County, this is the place!

We had a wonderful stay at Garden Pond Retreat! The home is comfortable and well appointed and the yard is amazing. We had a small issue with the property and the property management team was quick to answer our call (late on a Saturday night even!), help us, and remedy the issue the following day. We stay in the area about once per year and will definitely keep this on the list of places we would go back to!

We had a wonderful time at the Garden Pond Retreat. It is conveniently located between the Avenue of the Giants and Redwood National Forest, which were the two areas we visited. The neighborhood was safe and quiet, and the house itself was well appointed with a full kitchen, extra towels, and comfy beds. The garden was quite beautiful with unique landscaping and a pond where the kids enjoyed feeding the goldfish. We enjoyed our stay here!
