September 23-25, 2024 - This is the third time we have stayed at this small RV Park. The park is…read morenestled in a wooded setting, surrounded by trees and greenery, providing a relaxing atmosphere. We were able to get one of the sites with a deck that overlooks the pond. Our site had two wooden Adirondack chairs, a small drink table, a picnic table, and a fire pit. There is a trellis fence between each site which provides privacy. The park is located next to Sue-Meg State Park. We walked to the park one morning and hiked the Rim Trail. The short distance to the park made taking our car unnecessary, always a nice bonus. The park is clean and well maintained, and staff are friendly and welcoming. The only negative of this location is that you are right next to US 101, so you do hear a little traffic noise. But you are also next to the ocean, so you also hear the Sea Lions. So take one star off for the traffic noise, but add an additional star for the Sea Lions.

This was the first time for any of us…read moreto try an electric bicycle and our guides were super helpful, patient, friendly and accommodating. As we were the only ones on the tour that day, they adjusted to our every need. For example: *We're running late. No problem! *We're towing a trailer and parking can be a challenge. No problem! We'll hold a spot for you. *We have two late-70's seniors who haven't ridden bicycles in over 20 years. No Problem! We've got an electric tricycle for one and a lighter bike for the other. *We want to get back earlier to make it to our next destination. No problem! We can turn around and return whenever you want. I highly recommend Wild Trail Tours for a first time experience riding an electric bicycle.

I was visiting my brother in Eureka last month, and we toured the Blue Ox Millworks and Historic…read moreVillage. What an amazing place! The village is a collection of buildings relocated from other areas, and they are dedicated to types of craftsmanship. There are SO many areas in the buildings to explore! They have woodworking, ceramics, glassworks, printing, signage, weaving, blacksmithing, and other crafts. The crew even built a replica of the hearse that carried Lincoln's coffin for the memorial trip from DC to Springfield, 150 years later. They also hand-crafted a redwood table for President Clinton's Presidential Library. Because the buildings are working sites, visitors must be careful as they walk through each area. Thankfully, all the walkways are of sturdy recent construction--even the catwalk on the second floor of the main building. Tours are led by knowledgeable guides, and visitors may have the opportunity to see craftsmen at work; on our visit, there was a gentleman working on a sign for a local ballpark. He stopped what he was doing and talked through the process of converting an artist's sketch to a finished, billboard-sized sign. It was fascinating to see! The grounds are lovely and have views of Humboldt Bay from the top of the rise. There are gardens planted in various sites around the village, and it is very pretty in the spring. For a unique experience of immersion into craftworks, I definitely recommend a visit to The Blue Ox!

There's not a lot to Old Town Eureka -- or at least you think that before taking this tour…read more On a road trip around the area, we had one afternoon and evening to spend in Eureka, and this tour was the prime thing on the list. Killed some time wandering the shops and getting snacks, then met at the Old Town Gazebo to meet, Eric, the tour guide. There was no one else signed up for the tour that day, but he only charged us the regular tour price ($20 each) instead of the private tour price. I'm not that into ghost stuff, but my road trip companion totally is, and I just like learning about the history of a place with a fun twist. It was the first day of summer and the longest day of the year, so the ghost tour was basically entirely during daylight hours, but that was OK with me. Keep in mind this is not specifically a ghost hunt, but rather a historical tour of Old Town sharing stories of local business owners who have reported sightings or strange happenings in their old buildings. You also learn very quickly that Old Eureka used to be a lot more happenin' than nowadays -- nearly any upstairs housed a brothel, and there was likely a saloon downstairs. Now you're lucky to find anything open past 10 p.m. 'round these parts. The tour was mostly outside (and even on the first day of summer, Eureka was still rather chilly!), but we went into a couple businesses, namely the Eagle House Victorian Inn. Just touring that place alone was impressive. Eric tells some good stories and ties it all together. We even had a restaurant manager see us outside, and he popped out to share a recent sighting reported by a customer. Be sure to reserve in advance by phone (and I would recommend calling to confirm on the day of your tour). The tour was a solid 90 minutes, and we never felt like it was rush through even though it was just the two of us.

Another fun highlight was finding a banana slug in my camp when I returned and it filled me with so much joy. 10/10 I will come stay here again, especially since the rates are so reasonable! I will say that the sites are somewhat small and there is some road noise (through no fault of the owners), but since I didn't spent much time in camp anyways, that was more than fine by me. They are transparent about that and it is just something to keep in mind rather than anything that detracts from the stay as long as you know what you're getting into and are okay with that.

This review is long overdue! We have stayed in a couple different Trinidad Retreats vacation…read morerentals over the years and really enjoyed our stay at both of them. They have vacation rentals in Humboldt County in Trinidad, Arcata, and McKinleyville. We have only stayed in ones in Trinidad. Trinidad holds a special place in my heart and I absolutely love this quaint beach town! They have several properties in Trinidad that overlook the ocean and the views are absolutely stunning so you can pick the ones that works the best for you. Some of the properties also have a hot tub if that is something that you are looking for. They have dog friendly vacation rentals as well, which is important to us because we love going on mini vacations with our dog. Trinidad is such a beautiful area for a getaway and to have mindful moments to take in the natural beauty that surrounds you! We absolutely loved watching the sunsets and enjoying wine in the evenings! Trinidad is truly a magical place! The only negatives are that more and more people are discovering Trinidad so the prices in the area of bed and breakfasts and vacation rentals have gone up. Also, I don't love the fees that are associated with vacation rentals and the rules. Overall though, Trinidad is a beautiful place to stay and if you are looking for your own private oasis, Trinidad Retreats has some amazing properties to stay at!
