Riverfront Crescent City Home, 8 Mi to Beach!

A beautiful spot to unplug

We enjoyed our time at this property very much. We had four adults and two children. The bedroom setup worked great for our two families: one family slept downstairs, the other family slept upstairs. The deck is beautiful and the view of the river is amazing. Nice touches: washer/dryer, kayaks and propane grill for guest use. Some small details missing: towel bars missing in some bathrooms, shower curtain missing in the master bath, and make sure you bring extra garbage bags and your own paper towels. The full garbage cans outside left from the last guests invited the visit of a bear our first night (who made quite a mess), but the property owner took care of the trash cleanup when we called. Be aware that Hwy 101 has 2 hour scheduled closures between 9-5, Monday- Friday just south of Crescent City (spring-summer 2021) check roads.dot.ca.gov so you don’t get stuck in a 2 hour delay! Overall, a really wonderful spot to unplug and spend time with family if you plan to be in Crescent City.

Great Home & Amenities

During this cautious coronavirus time, I was worried about renting a home for a short family visit. Before I booked, I contacted Evolve Property Mgmt company and was instantly put at ease with their excellent cancellation policy. If I needed to cancel the trip, even at the last minute, I was told that I could re book at any of their properties for a year. I immediately booked through their easy to use reservation system. Fortunately, we were able to keep our reservation and enjoy this beautiful Crescent City home. The home was easy to access and in a great location right along the Smith River. The views are excellent and we enjoyed the provided kayaks and tubes. Fishing season opened while we were there and a couple of local kids caught a couple of steel head. The home is FULLY stocked with all of the cleaning supplies you can imagine. There were clorox wipes, kitchen/bathroom cleaners, clean towels, soap and bleach which we were able to use to keep the house clean while we were there. The spacious layout of the home allowed us to enjoy time on the deck, gathering in the kitchen to make family meals, time in the living room to enjoy the gas fireplace. All of the bedrooms were spacious and perfect for our 9 guests. There are neighbors on both sides of the house, all of which were very nice and friendly. The couple of a downsides were that the house itself was not extremely clean when we arrived. There was some dirty underwear and a single earring on the dresser in the downstairs bedroom. The bathrooms were not spotless, however I had each of our guests wipe down everything and it was fine. The downstairs area is slightly musky - there is a dehumidifier in the house, which helped with the smell. The home is a little older and can use a few updates, but the overall charm of the house makes up for minor decorative issues. All in all, this is an excellent home and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We would definitely recommend and stay again.

Clean, Comfortable House by the River

We stayed here for a two-family vacation this past June. The house is really nice, very clean, and has everything you might need. The deck and river access are AMAZING. I loved sitting out there in the morning and having my coffee listening to the river flow by while watching the birds and occasional deer. The kids loved going down to the river and playing on the small sandy area or wading in the cool, clear water. The main floor has two bedrooms, both with attached bathrooms. The downstairs is a fun family area with a large bedroom at one end and a smaller bedroom at the other, with one bathroom. There was plenty of space for all of us, actually more than we needed since there was at least one sleeper sofa that we didn't even open and a nice sectional in one of the bedrooms. The only caveat or even remotely negative thing I would say is that this is a no pet listing, but the owners clearly have pets that stay in the home when they are using it (there are multiple pet beds tucked under furniture), so if you have pet dander allergies this may not be the rental for you. It is very clean and we didn't notice any pet hair, however. The kitchen is fully equipped with really new appliances and everything is super clean and organized. We loved it here and would come back again if we're ever in the area!
