Relaxing and on the River

After hiking all day amongst the redwoods of NorCal we would return to the home to rest and relax to get ready for the next days hike. Sitting out on the back deck right by the river was especially nice. We had a great time.

Great Time

This was a most enjoyable place to stay. The home was very inviting, comfortable and clean. It has a large covered patio and a separate covered area with a swing. All overlooking the Smith River. It is very close to the Redwoods and all they have to offer. Not far from Crescent City and the coast. Everything is there for a most enjoyable stay.

Lovely home in a great location

We stayed in this home with our extended family (ages 17- 82). This is a well loved home in a gorgeous location. There are many places to sit outside and enjoy the river view (or walk down and sit right next to it. Full kitchen, good sized living room. Whoever gets the master bedroom is in for a treat with a big room with an amazing view of the river. The two bedrooms on the first floor are much smaller.The redwoods are just 15 minutes away.

Stunning property, back to nature

Back to nature with all the comforts of home. Stunning property delightful home. I would move here in a heart beat and be happy for the rest of my life. Perfect retreat. I am 75, i wanted to spend some time in the deep forest but have some limiting mobility factors. This property had the right mix of tall trees, water, and shektered places to sit and enjoy nature with only a short walk. Beautiful home, many large windows so even when I was inside i could enjoy the outside . Absolutly heaven on earth!

The house is like a 1960s-1970s museum of artifacts throughout the home.lots of art, photographs and history written on postcards. Unfortunately, my first impression was that there is a very strong pet urine smell in the teal colored carpet at the entry that leads to the master. It stayed with us throughout our 4 night stay. Looks to de a lot of deferred maintenance on outside of property and old carpet but 100 percent we enjoyed the stay minus the urine smell .The home is comfortable, has lots of cookware, clean, and we enjoyed the deck and living room. No smart tv, internet worked well. The access to the river was too difficult for us to get to but the sounds of the river were nice in the generous size master with beautiful views. I appreciated the simple check out process, the comfortable bed and sheets, and the pretty flowers thoroughout the property. The neighborhood is nice for walking, but there is no grass or fenced yard for walking your dog. The distance to restaurants and major stores beyond a convienance store was 30-35 min. If they replace the carpet - it’ll be a 10 out of 10. Getting info from property manager before arrival was slow at response but it worked out. The two extra bedrooms were very small but functional.

Wonderful house!

This is a beautiful clean cozy house that worked well for our vacation. Quiet neighborhood a minute from hwy 199 and a quality corner store. We loved the fireplace, the warm central furnace and the cozy furniture. The view of the river is excellent. The kitchen is well stocked. The upstairs bedroom and bath are quiet and also have a great view of the river. There is lots of space for a big family. The backyard decks are awesome and there is river access! The home is decorated throughout with art. Very interesting pieces! It was a challenge to keep the glass decorations safe from our 3 year old boy and the 1 year old who visited us. We made it work, though. Great house, and I would be happy to rent again

wow this place was wonderful - both the house itself (clean, lots of character, comfy beds, stocked kitchen) and the amazing surrounding nature (pristine river with swimming holes, was refreshing and not too cold during our stay). the host was responsive, patient, and kind. and the trip was magical - just a 20 minute drive to the redwoods, and lots of other excellent hikes nearby.

A magical place to stay. The river is a bit farther away than we thought initially, and down a steep path, so keep in mind if you have mobility impaired people in your party. But the views, the gardens, and the upstairs room in particular can't be beat. 100% would stay there again, only for longer next time!

Relaxing stay at a beautiful spot

The home is very comfortable & well stocked with everything you need. Outside the home was the real star though with flowers blooming & expansive space with multiple decks and comfy chairs overlooking the Smith river. My family loved our stay at Elve Huset.

We enjoyed our stay, great accommodation, pet friendly, convenient location, close to places we wanted to visit, Redwood National and State Parks, Crescent and Klamath, CA and Brookings, OR. Beautiful view from the decks, great room and master bedroom - overlooking at the Smith River. Communication was great, check in was a breeze and property was very welcoming just like advertised. kitchen had plenty of dishes and quality cookware. Lots of condiments and staples available as well. A quick walk to the river and the kids enjoyed a dip everyday. Amazing experience indeed. Highly recommended!

This was our message to the owner:Andrew, I am Miles Locke’s wife and wanted to send you a message. Only avid gardeners can truly appreciate your lovely home and gardens. This is our annual cousin trip and the three ladies, including me garden in our respective homes. Two are from FL and my husband and I are from TX. We have so enjoyed your home and the explanation on all the cases of the artifacts. We have used vrbo for many years and several times each year and yours is the best. So much thought went in to all the explanation cards and your kitchen has nothing lacking. Thank you again for such a wonderful home.

River House

The house was great, and beautiful setting. We all agreed that it was much better than the listing showed. Great kitchen and living room; multiple decks outside; running stream behind the house, accessible for a cool dip. Would definitely stay there again.

This was a delightful 4 nights on a pleasant river in a quiet neighborhood in the redwoods. There were 3 of us, plus one service dog. Plenty of room! The decor is quite interesting - part museum, part art gallery. Furniture very comfortable. We were in the river to cool off every evening. We would love to return!

Visit home

I grew up in Gasquet. This is our third year visiting our old stomping grounds. We love the house, the grounds, and the view of the Smith River. We visited friends and just enjoyed being in nature. Loved our visit!
