Great location and wonderful hosts. The owners were very responsive and gracious throughout our stay. This was our first visit to the area, and we really appreciated how close the home is to Bidwell Park. The house met all of our needs and was spacious enough that we never felt crowded. The neighborhood was quiet and welcoming—we even met a few neighbors who kindly offered us fresh lemons and oranges from their tree. We would definitely stay here again.

The Host was very kind and always fast to respond when I had questions. The home was a great location to meet up with my Siblings. My brother enjoyed having his own space in the Studio. The Home had lots of extra blankets and Towels and the back yard was well kept. I have to buy my daughter a swing now because she had a blast.

Peaceful Neighborhood near Bidwell Park

Each day we would explore a new area of Bidwell Park and Chico and enjoyed the home when we returned to set up our laptops and list the birds we had seen for the day. The large table in open-concept kitchen was perfect to sit around and the sofas and recliner were nice for enjoying our morning coffee and reading before we made breakfast in the spacious and well accommodated kitchen. Spacious home with nice backyard. Quiet and friendly neighborhood.

Great family friendly house!

My friends and I stayed here for the weekend while our friend was getting married. We were impressed by how family friendly the house was with toys for kids and a great back yard with swings and a sandpit. It was also a lovely space for us adults to enjoy too! Definitely recommend!

BEST EVER

The house was our third try at renting a house in Chico and hands down, it was the best. All beds were comfortable, ample blankets and towels. We had our 4 year grandson with us and he loved the backyard with swings and lots of toys to explore with. Neighborhood was quiet and is a restful place to stay. Owner was exceptional at communicating. We hope to stay here again when we make it back to Chico.

Wonderful

House was exactly as it was described. We had 12 people stay and there was plenty of room. It had all we needed for the bbq celebration for my grandson who graduated from lineman school. I would definitely stay there again if I'm ever in Chico.
