About this property

Downtown Arcata True North Apartment

This sparkling clean, Arcata Bay/Coastal themed apartment is within a block of the Arcata Plaza, Farmers Market, shopping, overlooking Salt restaurant patio and Septentrio winery barrel room. We have a private parking lot, 1 gig/second WiFi, TV w/cable, dishwasher, California king bed, washer/dryer inside the apt, and pretty town views. Fun location close to everything, very spacious, relaxing, and convenient. Walk everywhere, all of our apartments have walk scores of 96! This apartment is very spacious feeling with a large living room with great town views. There is a full bathroom with a shower over tub and an LG combination washer/dryer. There is a full size gas range, a full size stainless refrigerator, dishwasher, dining table and chairs, a full size 55 inch TV with premium cable, and fast Wi Fi. There is a large private parking lot with motion lighting just for this building. Although the apartment is in a bustling, lively section of town within less than a block of many great restaurants, shops, etc, the bedroom is on the quiet side of the building and has a cal-king bed, and a sitting area to read/relax. The winery next door, Septentrio Barrel room, occasionally has live music and events on weekends, especially holiday weekends, Cal Poly graduation, etc, so we recommend contacting them to see what will be happening prior to booking if this is a concern. Guests have the entire apartment with its own private gate and stairway, a parking lot, and yard. The gates have electronic keypads so the apt and yard are very secure feeling. We respect guests privacy but are always available quickly for guest needs as our home is about 10 blocks away. We are very responsive hosts and always happy to provide recommendations for places to go, restaurants, beaches etc. This is a great location within a block of the town center/Arcata Plaza and less than a block from many great restaurants, shops. Within a block are 7 restaurants, the Arcata Plaza, the Arcata Co-Op grocery store, and countless shops. Once you have parked your car in the private parking lot with motion lighting that is just for this building, you won't need to drive again, everything is within a block or two from this location. We have tankless water heaters for unlimited hot water, rain shower heads, and very strong water pressure so much so many guests comment on how nice the showers are.

Welcoming, clean, comfortable!

We loved it. Nicely decorated and clean with everything included to feel a sense of home away from home. Owners were available and communicative. Just an FYI that there is a stove for cooking but it's not visible in the advertising.

Arcata’s best

Have stayed in the Flat and True North. Both are beautifully decorated with great beds, well equipped kitchens, good coffee (yeah for Peet’s!) and an unbeatable location. Eric and Heather are lovely people who really know how to make guests comfortable.

Lovely clean accommodations close to everything!

This VRBO was perfect for us. The owners thought of everything down to ziplock bags to pack lunches. We were able to walk to area restaurants and we enjoyed hiking in the redwoods and beautiful coastal hikes along the ocean. We had a washer & dryer to clean our clothes, wonderful comfortable bed & lots of streaming choices if you have any time for TV.

This was our fourth stay in Eric and Heather's lovely apartment and everything was just as nice as it was the first time we stayed here. The apartment is always clean and very well equipped. We enjoy being so close to restaurants and stores-- so convenient, but also quiet at night. We hope to return many more times.

Beautiful Apartment in the Center of Town

The apartment was completely updated and redone. Brand new everything and sparkling clean. Also, it was close to the center of town, so if you didn't have a car, you could still easily get to restaurants, grocery stores, etc. There was no toaster, so I contacted the owners, and they promptly brought over a toaster oven for me. I would definitely stay there again.

Amazing Arcata Apartment

We thoroughly enjoyed our two-night stay at the True North Apartment. The apartment was steps away from restaurants, grocery, & shopping in the plaza, which was very convenient and meant we didn’t have to spend time looking for or pay for parking. The private parking area & secure entry to the property gave us peace of mind. We loved the layout, decor and cleanliness of the apartment. Bed/bedding was very clean/comfortable. There was such attention to detail throughout the apartment, that we felt right at home and truly had everything we needed. Amenities were plentiful & thoughtful- blankets, throw pillows, hand towels, kitchen appliances, shampoo/conditioner/soaps- great quality and well-stocked. We met & visited with our host, Eric, on several occasions while he was on site. He provided great recommendations for site seeing, restaurants and things we shouldn’t miss on our visit to Arcata. He was very professional & friendly. Overall, we will definitely be back and highly recommend this host/property.

Perfect Arcata apartment

The apartment was perfect for our stay in Arcata. The location is great-- conveniently close to downtown stores and restaurants but quiet and comfortable inside. The apartment was very well equipped, with everything we needed for cooking and relaxing. Lots of space for two to spread out and be comfortable. We look forward to our next stay.

Very Nice Condo

This condo has everything you could possibly want. It's a nice size and very well equipped. There are restaurants nearby and an excellent grocery store just across the street. Parking is provided. Our only problem was the very large homeless population in the neighbourhood. My wife and I did not want to wander the streets at night. We are an older couple and this may not be an issue for younger people.
