This house is a delight! The location is beautiful, along Avenue of the Giants on a working organic farm, yet it feels private and tranquil. We enjoyed the deck and hammock, hot tub, and the views of the fields. The interior was thoughtfully arranged. Kitchen had all essentials and then some. We enjoyed the organic produce from the ownersâ farm stand a very short walk away. We used the BBQ grill and outdoor games. The view of Milky Way at night was spectacular and particularly memorable. We would love to stay here again!
Our fourth visit here! That should say it all. The trees are only half the reason we come to the redwoods. We love staying at this vacation home. The vegetables and fruit at the farm are extraordinary. We love star gazing at night from the hot tub. We always bring steak and grill. This year we had an electric vehicle and were pleasantly surprised there was a Tesla charger we could use!!
We really enjoyed the lovely house on a working farm. The house was clean and comfortable. It has high wood ceilings and everything we needed. We spent a lot of time outside on the deck taking in nature and the farm. The hosts are on site and very kind and helpful.
This is our second stay at this property. We love this farm in the Redwoods. The owners are lovely, they let us pick veggies from the fields. We loved being able to buy delicious blackberry Popsicles, and my son loved picking wild blackberries from the bushes along the road. The very best part were the peaceful evenings reading on the deck. Our kids loved all the yard games. This home's proximity to my favorite Humboldt Redwoods hike is also a plus. Make sure you check out the Drury Cheney Trail is you stay here!!
We loved this spot. Quiet, secluded, and surrounded by redwoods Walking distance or short drive to state park trails. Or plenty to do right on the property. Would definitely return. Hosts were great.
What a peaceful beautiful home. Cozy and the best ambience surrounded by gardens and redwoods. The hosts are wonderful and kind. I will definitely come again and would highly reccommend
What a great place! Within walking distance of a beautiful trail and easy driving to other nearby attractions. Holly and Mel were very gracious hosts. I would highly recommend this special place if youâre looking to be in the heart of the redwoods!
Stayed here for The Avenues of the Giants half marathon. There were 4 of us and the house worked out perfectly! It was a great size for our small group, clean, and in the best location for the race. The hot tub was great to ease our aching muscles and having coffee on the porch in the brisk morning air while watching the sun rise over the trees was picturesque. The pictures do not due justice to the charm of the house and the location among the redwood trees. It was a great location for everything we wanted to do and had easy access to nearby towns. This house worked out better than we could have hoped and will definitely stay again the next time we visit the redwood trees and The Avenue of the Giants.
I needed a place to stay for 3 weeks during a project. The Kleb's were a lovely couple. They kept me loaded with paper towels and toilet paper. The house was very clean and was very serene at night in the spa. There's ton's of privacy and is surrounded in beautiful forest. The only downfall was a lack of wi-fi. But if you're looking to unplug, this place is perfect!
Beautiful, quiet place close to the giant redwoods
The place was wonderful, quiet, and beautiful. We had a group of 5 and there was plenty of sleeping space for everybody. Lots of outdoor games set up around the yard and the gorgeous garden and free produce were a huge plus. The hot tub was a nice perk too. Would definitely stay again.
Was adorable, and loved how close it was to my favorite trail (Drury-Chaney!) Also, didn't know there was a Tesla charger before I got in there but sooo handy!
I and my family enjoyed the stay. Since phone service was limited we engaged in more activities together, read books, and made good memories. Easy access to the Avenue of the Giants, Drury-Chaney Trail, Eel River, and various beaches were highlights. Relaxation is a vacation requirement and the hot tub and outdoor areas were great for this.
This is our 4th time to visit this house. No internet and TCV but it's perfect for our family vacation house. Great and peaceful location surrounded by redwoods. The owner of the house is super nice. We would love to come back again!
Amazing location on the the Ave! Hosts were welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed the surrounding redwood parks and trail. The night sky is dark and great for stargazing if you don't mind a few bats flapping around. A nature lovers paradise with everything you need.
This is a perfect location if you want to be near a lot of groves of the giant redwoods. Among others, two of our favorites were Founders' Grove and Rockefeller Loop, both just a short and scenic drive from the cabin. If you want to go north to check out the beaches near Trinidad, it's only about an hour away and Eureka is only 30 min away. There are even some nice groves within walking distance of the cabin. The location is ideal if you want to do a lot of exploring of the redwood forests, as we did.
The cabin itself was very cozy and comfortable. The hot tub was a standout and we used it frequently. My partner said it was the best hot tub she'd ever been in. We thought the bed was very comfortable as well. There is also a washer and dryer which was a nice convenience to have.
A couple of things to bring up, not as negatives, just so you can be aware. First, as others have said, cell phone service will either be weak or nonexistent, depending on your provider. I had a weak signal on AT&T and my partner had no signal on T-Mobile. It wasn't really a big deal to us but if you need to be connected 24/7 you should be aware of it. However, it was only a short 10-ish minute drive north to get in reasonable coverage. Also, there is no heat or AC in the cabin. There is a wood burning stove with some chopped wood outside if you want heat, though, and we had no need of AC in late April when we visited.
Staying here was a great experience and we were happy we chose this option!
Mel and Holly Kreb have lived on this little piece of paradise for over thirty years. Mel grew up on a family dairy farm in Iowa which explains the onsite two acre veggie garden. Holly's background is in art and design, evident in the place's warm welcoming decor. Both of their grown kids remain committed to organic agriculture, personally and professionally.
