What a beautiful property. The home is thoughtfully decorated in such a way that it tells a story of exploration and natural beauty. The views of the river are beautiful and the access to it is such a bonus.This was the perfect place for my Family to stay and unwind.

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.

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.

Spectacular getaway

Perfect centralized location for group of family and friends to explore the Redwoods and the northern CA coastline. Host was accessible and personal and the property was private with wonderful outdoor deck space and beautiful river views. Clean and comfortable with all the amenities. Highly recommended!

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!

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

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!

ideal destination and launching point

My family enjoyed our stay at Elve Huset beyond expectations. The river was right out the back door, and a great place for peace and quiet and for fun in the water. The house was very clean and interesting (so much art, flowers, birds, nd history!) and had everything we could hope for to prepare meals and enjoy them together, as well as get rest after days adventuring in the river and at nearby attractions. Crescent City tidepools, Brookings beaches, Smith River swimming holes, and Jedediah Smith redwoods are all nearby. We loved our stay! A memorable experience!

Tranquil retreat in lovely setting

The host was welcoming and the property was lovely and spacious and allowed our family to spread out. The kitchen was well stocked pairing meals. But the real magic of this property comes from: 1) the lovely master bedroom with skylights to see the stars and a wall of windows to view the river and 2) the numerous decks that overlooked the river. I was so happy sitting on these decks, watching numerous hummingbirds visit their feeders and laying out peanuts for the jays. We had to cut our trip short for a pet emergency back home and we were very sad to leave.. the whole way home I was imagining myself back on those decks…. It really is a special place with great location to visit the redwoods. Gasquet is located outside the coastal fog zone, so even when it is cloudy in the redwoods, it was sunny at the cabin.

Perfect escape!

Andrew was such a pleasure to work with (was kind enough to text me photos of the directions when we left them at home!) and the property couldn't be nicer. You feel like you've stumbled into one family's slice of paradise. The river is ridiculously swimmable (perfectly transparent and serene), and the spot is a perfect driving distance to Jedediah Smith State Park and gorgeous views of the redwoods! Was such a relief to have a cozy spot for our dog to rest in the shade when we couldn't take her into the forest with us. All the amenities of home. Thanks, Andrew!!
