Eureka Mid-Century

This is the second time we’ve stayed at this property. The house is incredible from an architectural perspective. A mid-century style gem built with extreme skill. The layout is great for an extended family with plenty of room for everyone. Wonderfully furnished with a well stocked kitchen. There are even games, puzzles, and toys on hand. The host is an excellent communicator and is nearby if needed. We have family in Eureka that we visit a couple times a year and an extended family with our daughters’ families. We’ll be back!

A family retreat

Every year our grown children & their children gather with us to relax & reconnect. This year we enjoyed living in a Sunset Magazine home for a full week, taking advantage of its close proximity to the redwoods and beach. We feel so grateful for the experience.

A Wonderful Gathering Place

We rented this home as a gathering place over a family wedding weekend. All communicating with the owner was easy and she gave prompt replies. The home was easy to find and instructions for getting in were clear and easy to follow. Everything was clean and set up just as we expected. There was plenty of room for us to come together and relax. The neighborhood is fantastic. Quiet, safe and beautiful to walk in. The home also feels safe and has a gorgeous backyard to enjoy. It in very conveniently located but in a quiet setting. There is plenty of parking. If we ever needed to, I wouldn't hesitate to rent this home again. We enjoyed it very much.

Specific

This house would be amazing for a themed era gathering of friends though parties are not permitted, if I recall. There is an impeccable 60’s/70’s nostalgia about it…Seriously!!! The only thing that left us a little uneasy, that wasn’t obvious from pictures, is that the back yard is not fenced in for privacy. Anyone walking down the street used for parking access could see what’s happening in the backyard or into the house if blinds are open. Not what we would typically want from a VRBO stay. The heating system was loud and clangy at night as well. Woke a few times due to my nerves regarding the open access to back yard and sliding glass doors. It’s just not the place for us. I’m sure others would love it. Also, downtown Eureka was pretty sketchy around dusk. We ended up leaving a day early.

About the host

Hosted by Mercedes Compton

My husband, Craig, and I have been married for 32 years and love Humboldt County! We met while attending Humboldt State University in the 1980s and stayed here. We have a beautiful son and daughter-in-law; we love to visit them and the rest of our family up and down the coast. Traveling also allows us to indulge in our passion for mid century furniture and decor. The 'hunt' for that iconic mid century piece is what keeps us going, and we can think nothing better than to share some of our finds with you! It's interesting how we look back in time to find the most modern way of living - look to the past to create interiors that are in the vanguard of fashion. We hope you enjoy our home as much as we do. We are only minutes away and are available if you have any questions or issues during your stay.
