Close to Humboldt!
Comes as advertised as an upgraded, dog friendly house. It’s a great area of McKinleyville and the host has good communication with you the whole time. Would definitely stay there again. The only down side really is that it is a duplex, but that is not something they hide and it is baked into the excellent price per night.
