Our site comfortably accommodates a 20ft transit/van/small RV, as showcased by the pictured van. Located off-street, it provides a safe and tranquil parking spot. Access to the site is through an alleyway, ensuring privacy and convenience for guests.Our site is the driveway for our house. It is situated off an alley with no through traffic. The location is suburban and in a safe neighborhood. Very quiet and level driveway! This spot is walking distance to downtown Arcata and the community redwood forest. Cal Poly Humboldt is a short walk. The redwood national park is a 30 minute drive. There is Healthsport gym just down the hill that offers day passes for the facilities. The Arcata community pool offer day passes as well. The picture posted is a 20ft long Sprinter van that can easily pull in and out of the driveway. There’s also a bonfire pit and seating in our garden area that you are welcome to use! The front yard is a nice area to throw a blanket and have a picnic.

Quiet, private, easy walk to town

Exactly as described. A perfect overnight in a quiet alley driveway with privacy. Host was courteous, friendly and responsive. And it’s an easy walk to downtown Arcata, a sweet little gem of a town with small shops, eateries and a green center. Would highly recommend.

This is just what it says “A drive way getaway!” Perfect for an overnight with a great gated area for dogs. It is super quiet and private. I stayed here before and will again. Easy access off 101! Great host! PS I also like the instant booking so I know I am reserved!

Jeffrey’s driveway was the perfect getaway in Arcata! The location couldn’t be better- central to town but tucked away enough for a quiet peaceful night’s sleep in a very level driveway. Jeffrey was super responsive, helpful, and kind. Will absolutely come back on my next trip to Arcata, thanks for everything!

The driveway getaway was perfect, secluded and safe. Know that you have to turn down the alley to get to it. When I had trouble finding they were super responsive and showed me where to go. I needed a place to Overnight with my dogs. It was great and I will be back. Super close to the 191
