Cozy welcoming home

We had 10 people in our party, we enjoyed it very much. Very clean, spacious, the attention to detail and all the extra amenities make it very welcoming. Beautiful views of the mountains, very serene. Comfortable beds, large TV and comfy sofa in the den which is a separate living room to send the teens, family games, a cozy wood fire stove, large kitchen area to make a family dinner, all the amenities made it so nice! Perfect location between Avenue of the Giants and Eureka, our 2 destinations for our trip. Our family enjoyed this place so much, we would definitely come back.
