Amazing find on the water!

We loved being out on the deck either barbecuing or sitting around the fire at night. It is perfect for a couple or small family. Close to all the amenities in Eureka. Had the best time!

Sweet small cottage on canal

This was my third time here so clearly we like it.. It is very sweet. Nice deck on canal. Small but very usable kitchen has all necessary equipment but no dishwasher. Nice kayaks and bikes in garage. Bedrooms are small but nice.

Great place for visiting parents.

There are a lot of closer places you can stay while visit a child at Humboldt, but we love this King Salmon cottage due it having a nice Summer cabin vibe, being pet friendly and also has a beach less then a 1/4 mile away. As are daughter is a sophomore we will be back again for sure!

10/10 Recommend!

If you are looking for a unique stay in a convenient location, this is the place for you! The cottage is in the quiet, canal community of King Salmon. The house is immaculate, well appointed, well lit, and comfortable. Communication with the host and directions are clear and helpful. Walk to the end of the block for walks on the bay and jetty or around the block for a delicious meal at Gil's. The house offers two bikes and two kayaks for use and additional exploring with access from the back deck ramp. You can't beat the location! Very convenient to the 101 to explore the coast and The Redwoods. Some highlights to check out: Six Rivers Brewery in McKinleyville, cheap gas by Bear River Casino (Loleta) if you're out that way, and walking around the cute town/center square of Arcata. Somoa Dunes is a quick trip and countless views of the Pacific. Trinidad State Beach was stunning! Convenient to many major sites in The Redwoods. The area and the home are beautiful. When stocking up for adventures, skip shopping at the Walmart in Eureka-especially at night. 10/10 would recommend Allegra's Cottage and the King Salmon canal community.

Wonderful place, you should stay here!

The place was perfect- the deck was a great spot to hang out, the house was clean and welcoming and very adorable. Lots of tourist info and recommendations available. Just a quick walk across the street is the beautiful bay and a fabulous restaurant serving breakfast and lunch. The location is perfect, close to lots of hiking and attractions. The only thing we didn’t like was leaving!!

Great cottage!

The property was just as pictured. When we arrived they had left the lights on for us and had nice music playing on the TV. The patio area was very nice and relaxing to sit outside. Very quiet neighborhood. We had breakfast at Gill's which is very close with a beautiful patio area to dine. Also very close to Eureka.
