Family wedding

The house was a perfect fit for a large family to get ready for a wedding and then have a cookout for Memorial Day. The location was perfect for morning walks in the Bidwell Park. We would definitely stay there again!

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.

Our family looks forward every year to go to our home state of California. Our stay in Chico near Bidwell felt like home! House was welcoming, clean and well decorated for Cali friends. Backyard is best feature along with great garden. Kids were happy and cooking was great.

Good house in a good location

Our group came to Chico for the Snow Goose Festival and it was particularly nice to be close to the park. The host was very responsive and accommodating and the house worked really well for our group.

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.
