    Totally Awesome
    We stayed in the upstairs chalet and it was great. It is secluded, has a beautiful view of the woods and the place was immaculate inside and out. The hot tub is set back in the trees and was great in the early morning and incredible at night. I messaged one question to our host during our stay and got an immediate response from him. The chalet is a quick and easy drive to the Arcata Plaza and Cal Poly Humboldt, but is super quiet and feels like you are far off the beaten path. We would love to stay here again.

    Not sure I'd stay there again
    We stayed on the top floor. It was adequate accommodations but when I got there the wifi password was not correct. I called the guy and left a VM but he never got back with me. We finally asked the nice people downstairs what the password was and they gave it to us. It was NOTHING close to what was in the book. There were only 4 towels for 4 people for 4 nights and with a hot tub, it would have been nice to have had options (especially with no washer or dryer.). The hot tub made our bathing suits really, really stink even after a washing. I was not impressed.

    Great location!
    We stayed for a few days and spent time throughout the Redwoods. It was the perfect location to see the Avenue of the Giants and the next day travel to Crescent City. The house was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The hot tub was a great extra too. We had a wonderful trip and highly recommend staying here!

    Excellent stay in the redwoods
    Stayed in the upper level of the Redwood Retreat for 4 nights withy family as a home base while exploring the coast and the redwoods parks to the north. Great location -felt very remote but easy access to town. Loved the hot tub in the woods. Overall comfortable stay with adequately stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, and a large dining/game playing table.
