In the reception area of the office, they maintain brochures and maps pertaining to outdoor recreation activities and information on wildlife and the environment in the area - on federal lands. I picked up a few brochures and chatted with the receptionist about any recommendations she had. Nice lady! #USFishAndWildlifeServiceArcataFieldOffice

Vert friendly and efficient TSA Security Checkpoint. There was no one in line in front of me when I…read morearrived. I jokingly asked where the "TSA Pre-Check" line was (there is only one line). They handed me a laminated "Pre-Check" card to hand to the next TSA agent. I got to keep my shoes on, but my MacBook Pro and iPad had to come out of my computer bag and be placed in separate bins. Quick and efficient! #TSAPreCheck #TSA #ACV

Some…read moreunique old fire hats & fixtures including old arcafe machines, a pool table and a huge full service bar. Its just an old building...nothing much to see. I guess if the fire trucks were there and I was 6, it would be cool. What I want to know is how Arcata can afford this after they frauded the federal govt out of $4.5 million and continuously whine about being so broke....

Staff is very friendly and helpful. I run my business with more than one post office and Blue Lake…read moreis far superior.

I just moved to Blue Lake 2 months ago and since there is no street mail, I've been to this post…read moreoffice very frequently. I must say for being a small town office, the post[wo]men are not very friendly. Fred is the only one I remember by name, because he smiles and provides pleasant customer service every time. There is one particular woman that I have never seen smile, and she always gives me a rude attitude. I don't see her treat older folks the way she treats me and I don't think it's acceptable to treat your customers differently based on your biases. There is no reason for anyone working at this post office to be unhappy, we live in Blue Lake!

Want to read a book but the library doesn't carry it?…read more Sign up for Zip Books!! I was told by the kind librarian, across from the library public computers, if the book is less than $30 and more than 2 (?) years old it can be ordered to your physical or post office address. Just don't make the same mistake as I did! I did not return it with the packaging and papers it came with. I was then sent an email by the main front desk telling me I was overdue. When contacted about this issue in person they mentioned it was a first time exception. Phew! I don't want to make that mistake again! Good luck hunting for rare gems.

We've return to this library thanks to Shoshanna in the Children's library. We hear so many good…read morethings about her in our community. She is a light of sunshine, kind, creative, supportive, and very helpful. Her optimism and positivity is priceless. Our County of Humboldt is lucky to have her. The children's area has opened ended play and nature inspired stations friendly for young children. We love the new playground however I wish there was a way to close the gate because it is open to the street and people drive fast through that curved corner. In addition, there are sometimes men sitting at the table but they don't have any children with them. Sometimes this makes me feel uncomfortable as a mom with young kiddos.

Great service. I always use this PO unless I need passport stuff done…read more I use Clark Street for all other mail services. Laura

I love this location. *The lady that works here is always,…read morealways helpful. She finds the least expensive way to send my packages and never has an attitude. I don't feel like I am bothering her with my questions so I have learned a few things. Like, the boxes provided at the post offices are designed to be handled by machine so the rate is cheaper. If you bring your own box it has to be hand stamped and hand carried so the rate is higher. Also, the boxes are self stick so no use for tape. * I have seen her be most courteous to some really rude people. Her service was the same for every person in her line. I have worked retail and I know how difficult it is to be nice to someone when they are demanding, rude & obnoxious. She handles it like a pro.

Located on Pickett Road across the packing lot from the Azalea senior center and adjacent to Pierson park. This satellite facility is supported by the local community, and has a great volunteer staff. As well the "friends of the mckv library" have a monthly book sale fundraiser to help support this facility and help to keep it open. The monthly book sale attracts hundreds of book enthusiasts every month. A small but very well stocked reference section at this library. As well you can order books to checkout anywhere within the county system and have the book delivered to this branch making it easy to pick up for the reader. A nice local library, small but efficient and definitely serves a purpose in the community. 4 stars - worth a visit. 00341
