Our Family Reunion

Our family stayed at the Forest Cottage last month for our family reunion. The house was exactly what we needed for our large family. Plenty of space and beds for all. It was raining while we were there so the kids could not go out but the yard has a lot to offer for kids

Perfect large house for big groups.

We rented this property to serve as a wedding house for our wedding party. Everyone got their own rooms, we were able to have a little get together for friends and family the night before the wedding. The kitchen had ample space for food and people. The house was very well stocked for all needs. Plenty of bathrooms which were nice and clean. Bedrooms were clean. The front yard was gated but not completely dog escape proof but served well for the kiddos. The check in process was smooth and easy. Communication and flexibility with Aurelia was so nice!! Had the best weekend of our lives!!!

Forest Cottage

Overall, Forest Cottage was wonderful, with enough room for everyone. The outdoors gave room for younger ones to run and play. The kitchen was large enough to serve everyone, and two refrigerators were a blessing. It might have been nice to have 2 stoves, but it worked. However, a few of the mattresses might need to be replaced. The cooling system was faulty at first, but they sent out a repairman as soon as we called to let them know.

Great for large groups

We had a family reunion with 21 people stay at Forest Cottage. There was plenty of space, our children ages 1-11 loved the “park” as they called it, which was the large, completely fenced play area out front which we could watch them play from the front deck or from the many windows in the house. The kitchen is very well equipped with many pots and pans, dishes, etc. There is a big closet with lots of family games. Plenty of bedding and towels are provided, as well as hand soap, TP, and paper towels. We all had such a great time and hope to come back for our next reunion.

Great place for a large group with kids

The large outdoor play area, plethora of rooms and beds, and comfortable shared spaces makes this an amazing place for large groups with kids. Our group of 5 families with kids from 1 to 8 had a blast! A nearby grocery market makes for easy access to food and Auburn State Recreational Park (just 15 min drive away) is a fun place to hike and explore.

Unique house in a beautiful location

I celebrated my 40th at Foresthill house with 12 of my close friends. We had a great time at the house, everyone had a bed, the kitchen was stocked and the hosts were so sweet. We found a great reservoir lake about 30 minutes away, but spent a ton of time at the house. The house feels like it’s all alone, yet it’s only about 15 minutes from Auburn. There is a Raley’s in auburn for easy access to groceries. We bbq’ed all and hung out by the fire pit at night. I would definitely stay there again for a similar occasion.

Good spot for a gathering

Aurelia was super responsive to all of our messages. The house is in good shape and the kitchen is larger than it looks on the listing. We were hoping to use the deck, however it was under construction for our stay. We did need to spend some time cleaning up the place a bit more when we got there, but it wasn't too bad and the bedrooms and bathrooms were all in good shape. It is definitely a little cramped for larger (30+) groups, but for a short stay it's nice and we had a lovely time there!

large space for gathering

The host was very easy to communicate with and went above and beyond to make our stay easeful and the space was large and accommodated a large party easily. The hosts were comfortable with us moving the furniture out of the main area so we could have ample space for yoga and meditation. The house is situated on a busier road than I had intended but it was very quiet at night.
