My wife and I had a great time and meal at the Cater House. We had eaten here a few years ago and this time we decided to stay at the Inn. The dinner with the wine pairing was very good. They even allowed us to keep our dog in the room with us. Thanks.

My husband and I were returning from a hiking trip in Oregon and decided to stay in Eureka on the spur of the moment rather than try to drive all the way home that day. If we had wanted a standard experience we would have driven Interstate 5, but we had headed for 101 and the scenic redwoods. We checked... More

This is a great place to stay if you want a base while visiting the Red Wood forests. The rooms are lovely and the bed sheets are the best I have ever experience at any hotel, and believe me, I've stayed in many hundreds over the years! The great thin about this Inn is that it also has a great... More

This is a very unique hotel in an early 1900's Victorian. The styling is great and the hosts are very accommodating and friendly. So, if you like unique styling this is your place. The rooms are spartan however. Carpet and bathrooms do need updating. The area is unique and this is a good location in Eureka. I like the restaurant... More

Everyone said such amazing things about this place, so we paid the really expensive price and stayed two nights. It's in a nice area of Eureka, close to old town and other sites. Frankly, for the $200+ a night price tag I was expecting a fancier room. It was a nice room, but small. The TV was tiny, maybe 18".... More

This beautiful inn is not to be missed! It's peaceful and serene yet incorporates modern luxury. The staff treats you like royalty and the food is incredible! They use fresh, local ingredients. The wine pairings were superb. I highly recommend this gem!! Well worth the drive to the Redwoods.

The food and service were great at this inn. I like the Victorians, and this is a really nice example. We stayed in the suite and it was really nice. We had the tasting menu for dinner, and the food and service was excellent. We had a nice stay.

We arrived for just one night in early April - which is presumably the off-season, because the inn and the whole town of Eureka were delightfully quiet. Without request, Carter House upgraded us to a suite - and what a suite it was. We couldn't believe it when we walked in to a jacuzzi in the bedroom and a beautiful... More
