Planning my summer vacation…..redwoods?

Can anyone offer me any tips on planning my vaca to see the redwoods this summer. What’s better – Eureka? Arcada? Anything else? Know any good hotels/inn’s? Should I think about renting a car or are taxi’s readily available and cheap?

We like Kind towns, Art, Music, Tree’s….

Tell me all that you know….
