My stay at Ted and Emily’s cabin was so peaceful, exactly what I was looking for! Directions were very clear, cabin was well cared for, and boy can that wood stove heat the room!! Emily and Ted were fantastic hosts, I definitely will be back next time I’m in the area.

So beautiful, romantic, and equipped! It really has everything you could need while remaining pretty minimalist. The steamy outdoor shower on a cold morning was healing, and the privacy of the toilet was ideal (totally worth it to walk outside the cabin for a moment, and you’re still totally protected from rain and dirt on the couple of steps it takes to reach it.) Can’t wait to come back.

Cute cabin - really nice to have heat (wood stove), electricity, and a real sink, shower, toilet. This is my oversight but reiterating the alert to others: they do not provide bedding! The pics all show a made bed so I guess my brain just glazed over that part in the description. Glad they left dry wood, kindling and a throw blanket for the cool night. Slept with a strong fire going and my jacket as a pillow. Could be improved: Whole place smelled a little bit like cat pee. Looks dreamy in the warmer months. Under 10 mins to downtown arcata.

Emily and Ted's magical cabin offered a gorgeous place to start and end our days and a cozy place to recharge with a full schedule of activities. There were black-tailed deer waiting to greet us when we arrived and over a dozen species of birds to hear and see every morning. The hosts were kind and accommodating but offered plenty of privacy and space to do our own thing. The timberframe architecture and joinery is beautifully done, and we appreciated the solar electricity and propane hot water that made it much easier to travel with a 6 year old. Hope we get to visit again someday!

This was my 2nd time at the cabin. We just loved our stay! The bed is so comfy and the cabin was warm and cozy from the wood stove. The flushing toilet and hot shower are a nice touch as well. We like to ride our bikes to get around and the cabin is a perfect spot to be just far enough from the busyness of downtown but close enough to get downtown on bike in 10 minutes. There’s also a store and restaurant in walking distance. We can’t wait to come back!
