Step back in time and vacation in style at this beautiful and conveniently-located Victorian gem. Built in 1878, the White House is brimming with charm and history. Filled with heirlooms of period-specific décor, this home presents the prime Victorian Ferndale experience. This marvelous retreat boasts a spacious, warm, and inviting living room where you could easily spend endless hours reading a good book or chatting with your friends and planning tomorrow's adventures. The well-equipped kitchen will help you channel your inner chef and treat everyone to delicious home-cooked meals. Plus, it features a cozy breakfast nook. The home has been renovated and restored over the past few years. It features a large collection of vintage photos depicting the area and its residents over the years including loggers and dairymen as well as the buildings of Ferndale, Eureka, Arcata, and Fortuna. This home is nothing short of a museum! And outside, this gem offers guests a convenient gas grill and an outdoor dining area, creating the perfect ambiance for cookouts.

Centrally located just a half-block off Main Street and only a block from the Ivanhoe's steakhouse or the Victorian Inn of Ferndale, this heart-stopping getaway is near to it all! Take a walking tour of the breathtaking architecture; the Gingerbread Mansion is just a block away! There are numerous shops and restaurants literally steps from your front door. Centerville Beach is just a quick drive from Ferndale. Another must-visit that you can literally find across the street is Poppa Joe's! Your visit to Ferndale wouldn't be complete without another time-honored Ferndale tradition: a hot dog at the Red Front Store, which happens to be around the block. Centerville Beach County Park is five miles away and is perfect for beachcombing, bird watching, wildlife viewing. Plus, it's one of the less crowded beaches in California, something you wouldn't even dream of!

A Pleasant Stay
A beautiful Victorian home in the heart of downtown Ferndale. Warm and comfortable. Historical furnishings, photos and decor. Has a claw foot tub instead of shower, so guest must be able to negotiate getting in and out of a large tub.

Museum accessorized home
Great place to stay and enjoy being part of the local area for a few days. The house is amazing with antiques and collectibles and pictures of the town as it was being built 150 years ago. Quiet, except when the fire alarms go off since it’s by a fire station would highly recommend to anybody that comes to the area.

Nicely appointed and uncomplicated. Liked the privacy of the courtyard where we enjoyed our wine. There were no disappointing surprises. And, loved its location in the heart of downtown Ferndale. We could walk anywhere within minutes.

Great location! Place was very comfortable. The only thing we would suggest is to get a shower curtain rail. We’ll be back. Thank you.

A real charmer
The night we were supposed to check in, the area had a major earthquake. Power was off, and it was difficult, if not impossible to even enter the town so my reservation was delayed by one day. Fortunately, I was able to find alternate lodging. The property manager was really helpful and able to get the place cleaned up from the earthquake so we could get in the second day once the power went on. The house itself is charming and tastefully decorated. It is within walking distance to everywhere on Main Street Ferndale. The beds were comfortable and the place has every amenity necessary. We all loved the reading about the history of the house. Ferndale is a must see for anyone traveling in the area. Having previously lived in Humboldt County, Ferndale is where we prefer to stay when we visit. I would highly recommend this property.
