About this property
Lilac Victorian House of Eureka
Experience the charm of Old Town Eureka in this beautifully refinished Victorian just a block from the bay. The Lilac Victorian offers two distinct rentals that can be enjoyed together or separately, making it perfect for families, friends, or groups traveling together.
This listing is for the entire home.
Inside the Home
Downstairs: A fully updated kitchen with brand-new finishes from floor to ceiling, a formal living room, a dining area, and a convenient breakfast island.
Upstairs: Another complete kitchen, spacious living and dining areas, and an additional breakfast island for relaxed meals or morning coffee.
Location Highlights
Nestled in historic Old Town, this home is only a short stroll from boutique shops, restaurants, and entertainment. The bay is just a block away, and the famous Carson Mansion—one of the most photographed Victorian homes in the world—is right around the corner. For day trips, you’re about 10 miles from Arcata and Cal Poly Humboldt, 20 miles from the Victorian village of Ferndale, and 47 miles from Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, home to majestic redwood forests.
Things to Know
WiFi is available, but speeds may be slower than average.
The home features two full kitchens.
Both twin beds are rollaway style and stored in the closets.
The property is divided into two rentals—Lilac Victorian Downstairs and Lilac Victorian Upstairs—which may also be rented separately.
This rental is managed by Redwood Travels.
A separate Redwood Travels Rental Agreement will need to be signed at the time of booking.
No parties or events. Quiet hours 10 pm-8 am.
No smoking or vaping in the home.
This is a shoe free home.
Leave the house tidy. NO large messes!
