Potter's Bungalow - Near Downtown Plaza, 3 bed

A 20% courtesy discount has been applied to the rent until May 1st, 2026 due to the new multi unit construction project underway at the property next door. Work hours 8 am - 6 pm, Monday - Saturday.

This 1936 Craftsmen inspired, vintage bungalow has been completely restored by an artist so that you can unwind in style. It has just the right combination of color and comfort. The exterior has been painted a warm, sunny yellow creating a very warm welcome. The splash of red in the kitchen adds to its rustic charm. Guests will enjoy how cozy this home feels. Less than 1000 square feet of creatively utilized space offering everything you need for a fabulous getaway. The family/dining room is open to the kitchen with breakfast bar. Enjoy hanging out watching a movie on the Smart T.V. with Cable, Play a game or dine at the cafe- style table. Three well-appointed bedrooms offer sleeping for up to 6 guests with a King, Queen and 2 twin beds. The tile work in the bathroom and one-of-a-kind light fixtures are small works of art. The bathroom has a stall shower.

Take a 12 minute stroll or use the bikes and visit the Plaza in downtown Arcata or enjoy our famous Farmer's Market for fresh, local organic offerings, food and music.

The house is a cute, little place that was just about right for my family. We stayed here before 2 years ago and it was just as good the second time. The house itself is pet friendly, but as you can see in the photos the yard isn't fully fenced. Not a problem for us, but if you have a runner be aware. The house is walkable to the plaza and many restaurants.

Nice quiet stay

We had a nice quiet stay in this small but comfortable house. Everything was clean and easy to find. Only problem was the internet was painfully slow but it wasnt a big deal, we were only here to eat and sleep.

Cute place and great for a two night stay. Nice walk into town and easy to park. House was fine, nothing special and no extras. Had what we needed and big enough for the two of us, would be perfect for a family too. Easy instructions and no problem getting in. Was a bit humid overnight in there, so not sure what it would be like in summer, as we went in September. Super communicative and friendly host which was great, although tone of the written 'rules' was not really welcoming.

Walkable to the Arcata Plaza. The house is small, but we were able to comfortably eat and play board games. The twin beds really need new matresses. Other beds were comfortable.

Enjoyed Our Stay

The property was well maintained and clean. I would recommend putting black out curtains on the side of the house that faces the grocery store, Wi-Fi/TV did not work well and there was no complimentary wine as described. Despite these things we enjoyed our stay and would recommend them. Plenty of linens and comfortable beds. Very cute bungalow.

Enjoyed our stay in Arcata!

The property was clean and comfortable for our group (3 couples - family - attending wedding) although the third bedroom, with twin beds, is best suited for kids. The property met all of our needs for the long weekend. The location was very convenient although the empty lot next door detracted from the otherwise neighborhood feel of the area. (The lot is depicted in the pictures so we knew it when renting.) Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend the house to others staying in Arcata.
