Very cozy, great location, and easy. We loved it!

It was the best to wake up to all the deer and turkeys in the yard. Also there was a really pretty little hiking trail right across the street. It was such a quiet and amazing little spot

Great location and lovely stay while I visited to run the Avenue of the Giants half marathon

10.0 / 10.0

Loved our stay! Perfect location with countryside views. Great natural light, perfect for reading, and no shortage of books! We especially loved our early morning hikes in Russ Park, right across the street, and being able to walk into town for a bite to eat. It’s my second time staying here and I know we’ll be back again. Highly recommend it!

10.0 / 10.0

We come here about twice a year for a week enjoying the redwoods, the rural ambiance, and the historic town center. A trip to Headwaters Forest, one or two trips to the Humboldt National Wildlife Refuge, out the Petrolia Road, out to the beach, shopping in Old Town Eureka, a visit to the Arcata Farmers Market--what's not to love? Sharon and Sylvia are thoughtful hosts and this is truly a unique property.

10.0 / 10.0

Loved our stay. The Library is so cozy and comfortable. We did a lot of exploring of the surrounding area while we were there and it was so nice to come back to this little retreat to relax after a long day. It’s also just a short pleasant walk into town and we loved walking around the cemetery and seeing the view of Ferndale from up on the hill.

We were looking for a peaceful getaway and we found it a the Library Suite in Ferndale! Such a unique setting and cozy inside space ... including a most interesting library!

10.0 / 10.0

I have lost track of how many times we have stayed at Bluff House Library Suite over the years. The property is comfortable, Sylvia and Sharon are friendly and helpful hosts, and we do so enjoy Ferndale's Victorian and agricultural ambiance. And of course, there are the books! What a unique vacation experience. Much recommended.

This was our second time staying here. It is a very peaceful area and beautiful setting in the country; a nice respite from the city, and appreciated after a long drive. The room was perfect and we enjoyed looking at some of the 3,000 books in The Library!

10.0 / 10.0

Our second time staying at this property. It's delightful! Small town peacefulness, with hiking and a gorgeous beach in your backyard. Property doesn't have a TV which should be a standard amenity in most rentals. Also, beach towels or chairs would be a nice addition since there's a gorgeous, unspoiled beach a couple miles down a quiet farm road. The suggestions above do not dim my HIGHEST recommendation for this lovely, well-maintained property.

10.0 / 10.0

The Library is in a beautiful, bucolic setting on the outskirts of Ferndale. We enjoyed being in the dairy district, with cows munching the pasture grass right outside the kitchen window. The high ceilings, the 3,000 books, the abundant daylight, and the quiet of the location "outside" of town added to the delightful stay we enjoyed.

10.0 / 10.0

We loved our stay in the library! Browsing the wide variety of books was quite fun. We love being a little bit out of town and walking in to the sweet town of Ferndale. Our second stay at this property, but first at the library. Our go to place now when coming to Ferndale.

10.0 / 10.0

There is no place like the Library Suite at Bluff House! We have been coming back twice a year for the last several years. We love the rural atmosphere; the friendliness of Ferndale; the closeness to the redwoods, Lost Coast, Old Town Eureka, and the lovely back roads of Humboldt County; and, of course, the unique book-lined space with its soaring windows and walls of books. Sharon and Sylvia are thoughtful hosts. We will keep coming back for as long as we can.

Amazing stay

10.0 / 10.0

The Library is a quiet studio on the outskirts of town. We had a great stay. We cooked a few meals in the sparse but adequate kitchenette. The book collection is amazing. We were close enough to bebop into town in about a minute but had deer and turkeys wandering outside our front door. If you're a early riser there are big windows aplenty to let in the morning light. Our teenager stayed with us and had a roomy futon that he slept comfortably on. He was NOT as excited about the bright morning sun.

10.0 / 10.0

Our 7 years old grandson really enjoyed the ping pong table and fooz ball table. It was very quiet, other than the wild turkeys in the morning, lol. There wasn't a TV which is disclosed on the listing but I overlooked it. One of the rituals we have with our grandson is a family movie before bedtime so we ended up buying a small TV and brought our ROKU so it worked out.

Lovely pasture views and comfy bed. You can get lost in books and never leave.

10.0 / 10.0

I've honestly lost track of the number of times my wife and I have stayed in the Library Suite at Bluff House--four or five, I think. We always come back because we love Ferndale and the accommodations are absolutely unique: the soaring ceilings, tall windows, and walls of books. Last year, there were heifers in the meadow below the kitchen window. This year, the yard was regularly visited by eight or ten wild turkeys. The place is always spotless, and Sharon and Sylvia have been thoughtful hosts over the years. Close to the redwoods, the coast, and Ferndale's Victorian downtown. We will be back.

10.0 / 10.0

This space is quiet and private. It is great for a getaway on your own or to reconnect with someone special. The fire pit is a great element in the evenings, the space is comfortable and inviting, and the kitchen allows for you to prep good food at home if you don't want to eat in Ferndale. My partner and I have returned a handful of times. We plan to stay at the Library again.

10.0 / 10.0

This is our third stay in Library Suite at Bluff house, and we will be back as soon as we can. Sylvia and Sharon are thoughtful owners, and the place is always immaculate. Soaring windows fill this book-filled building with light. This trip, the meadows outside the windows featured flocks of wild turkeys and young deer. And so close to downtown Ferndale. A delightful place to stay.

10.0 / 10.0

We really enjoyed the Library House. Cozy, homey, and great location within easy walk to downtown and Russ Park. It was very clean, quiet, and had everything we needed. Loved all the books!

10.0 / 10.0

It was the perfect little house for a quiet couple days after dropping my child off at nearby Humboldt State. Very peaceful and so much fun animal life! There were a dozen wild turkeys in the yard, with sheep and cows in the neighboring properties. The pathway from the property to the historic downtown was adorable, but wear hiking shoes and long pants.. I even sampled some wild blackberries along the way. The owners left detailed instructions and the house was clean and well stocked. The only warning I need to give is that if you are NOT a morning person, the bright morning light pouring in the two story windows might be a problem.

10.0 / 10.0

The property is within walking distance of the main Ferndale attractions: downtown, Russ Park and Ferndale cemetery. Clean quiet and beautiful.

Charming Local Spot

Charming Local Spot

This suite is just minutes from the Main Street of Ferndale and close to Eureka. It’s a small house off a large farm with cows in view of the windows. Note that there is a game room adjacent to the suite and no television is available. It’s clean and the hosts are easy to communicate to. It was a nice place to lay our heads before our trek on the Lost Coast trail.

great place, comfortable with that farmstead feel. You get a birdseye view of Ferndale from here. Highly recommend. Nice that one of the cabins allows dogs, nice fenced in areas. Trails right next to the property, just a few miles to the beach.

Awesome spot!!

Awesome spot!!

We loved staying at the Library Suite at the Bluff House!! We were able to walk to town and Russ Park. We enjoyed the space around the property with lush greenery and many different types of farm animals including cows. The Library Suite was very cozy, clean, and enjoyable. A previous review about bringing a cot was a great idea since our kids are teenagers and they both would not have fit on the pull out couch together. I would highly recommend staying here--it was wonderful!!

Happy to be back at Library Suite

Happy to be back at Library Suite

This was our second stay in the Library Suite. We have been fans of Ferndale since we first visited a decade ago--such a pretty, relaxed little town. And we love the suite's high ceilings, big windows, and, of course, the many, many books. What a unique place! And Sylvia and Sharon are such thoughtful hosts. Everything is always spotless. We will definitely be back.

Graduation weekend

Graduation weekend

My oldest daughter graduated from Cal Poly Humboldt on Saturday. All the local hotels/motels were so expensive and frankly dirty and crappy. This cottage hide a way was amazing and cheaper. Felt homey and comfortable but with a historical edge. I loved that there was no t.v. My 19 year old daughter and her boyfriend were with me and we bonded and enjoyed ourselves even more because of this cottage. We met the owner and liked her immediately. We didnt want to leave.

Wonderful Humboldt Thanksgiving

Wonderful Humboldt Thanksgiving

Dear Sylvia and Sharon, Your Bluff House Properties made for a wonderful gathering spot for our family. Everyone loved the accommodations. Having 3 kitchen areas gave all of us the opportunity to cook our sides and a turkey in time for Thanksgiving. Your continued attention to detail and helping us out with extra serving pieces was very much appreciated. We also enjoyed your new fire pit area and made use of your rec room. All in all it couldn't have been more perfect. Thanks again. Gary, Carol & Family

The Library was a great place to stay. Traveling with my elementary aged kids it was fantastic to have the game room next door. The kids had a place to be noisy and play when they woke up early or while I made dinner. Everyone throughly enjoyed their stay!
