Cozy spot with everything you need!

We really enjoyed our stay at The Boathouse! It was just what we needed while spending the weekend in Eureka for a wedding. Comfortable bed, well-stocked, and the kitchen is a huge plus! Great views of the bay as well. Highly recommend this gem of a VRBO.

This was the perfect spot for my trip. Kate is warm and accommodating of anything that I needed. The kitchen was stocked with drinks and condiments and my favorite, coffee (also tea for those who might prefer that). The small patio was a wonderful spot to relax, rest and read.

Place is very good for a couple to stay for a few days. When you drive up there for the first time it looks like it is in a middle of nowhere but when you get there it looks amazing. City is small and it takes only 15-20 minutes to get anywhere.

Stunning Property

This place is a true hidden gem. The house was immaculate—spotless, beautifully decorated, and incredibly inviting. Kate welcomed us so warmly upon arrival that it immediately felt like home. After a long day of travel, it was exactly what we needed. As a thoughtful gesture, she even sent me home with some flowers. We would absolutely stay here again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to others.

This is our second stay at this cottage. It's very quiet in location. Our host is a lovely lady and very accommodating. The cottage was clean and stocked with supplies to help if you forget something. There's a small kitchenette and nice bath with shower. The decor is beach appropriate and very stylish. I would highly recommend this cottage to a couple wanting timr away.

Enchantment

It has manageable limitations of space regarding entry and parking. It was a good location for us allowing easy connection to Eureka bike trail system. Modest in size and yet completely functional with comfort. An artistic beauty of furnishings with excellent quality of kitchen and overall amenities.
