Really enjoyed the house and location. Very nicely appointed, clean home. The scenery is breathtakingly beautiful. Would definitely book this home again.
It was such a beautiful place. We were visiting family that we hadn't seen in a long time. The rental was less than a mile away so going back and forth was very easy. The view are absolutely breathtaking. Very nice accommodations and we'd definitely stay there again. The host was amazing at staying in touch and answering any questions we had.
Well appointed and recently remodeled cottage was perfect for a 3 night stay. My son and I came to the area for a fishing trip and this was close to all the spots by the lake. We had everything we needed to cook in each night and enjoyed listening to Hamilton branch river to go to sleep. Back deck had nice views of river and peaceful to sit for a rest. Debbie, the owner was communicated well checking in on us once there.
The view was spectacular and the sound of the river was so relaxing. We spend most of our time out on the deck relaxing and visiting. The property was very clean, the towels and bedding were plush, and all amenities were as listed. The host was very accommodating to our unexpected change in plans. We will definitely book again.
This Hamilton Branch two-storied house is well maintained, clean, good for a maximum four people (adults/kids). The best part is the sound of the constantly flowing water from the adjacent creek. It's quite relaxing.

Debbie and Dave were the most responsive hosts we have encountered during our many years of experience with vacation rentals. The property was comfortable, immaculate and so well stocked and equipped we thought we were home. The view from the, to say nothing about the sound of the water was simply wonderful and so peaceful. The neighborhood was quiet and safe for long walks and they even delivered a freshly laundered blanket for our pooch to sleep. Simply a wonderful stay that we hope to repeat.
This house was a perfect fit for our quickly planned Father's Day celebration. The deck provided a beautiful view of the river with comfortable outdoor furniture. The house interior was very nicely decorated. Lovely linens and pillows made for a great night's sleep along with listening to the flow of the river. Manager/Owner didn't skimp on anything with this property.
Debbie was very thorough with instructions which made check-in extremely easy. She went above and beyond to give us tips for good restaurants and provided brochures for activities. All in all, this property was a gem. I highly recommend.

We loved this property during our time visiting Lassen. The river is amazing and the space was very comfortable for our family of 4. Debbie was great to communicate with. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
We had a wonderful stay! The host was very helpful with local dining recommendations. The cabin was clean, organized, and had everything we needed. We loved listening to the river right outside and it was just a short drive to Lake Almanor, where we enjoyed boating all weekend. Perfect location and an overall great experience—we’d definitely stay here again!
Ideal stay, within driving distance to the lake. access to the Nest thermostat was convenient to adjust the temperature to our comfort. Overall, a great stay. Could have left foot stools for kids to access the tall sinks in the restroom.
This property is very well maintained and stocked with all the necessities. We stayed in September and it was very quiet. Having coffee on the deck listening to the sounds of the river was the best way to start are day. We will definitely be back!!!!
Lovely well maintained accommodations and property site. Lovely tranquil riverside location. Lovely forest and river view. Lovely considerate, helpful owners that care about guest comfort and safety.
We really enjoyed our stay. The location with the river in the back was amazing! And we were especially happy that we could bring our two dogs along :)
This was a great house to stay in. It's well appointed, clean and comfortable. It was a very short drive to the Hamilton Branch fishing access which was a big plus for my kids. The sound of the river behind the house was very peaceful. I would definitely recommend this for a quiet mountain getaway.
Great cabin, close to the river, quiet and peaceful. Wonderful feel for the cabin, newly remolded, very clean, nice outside balcony looking over the river. We had a great time! Thanks for everything.
Nice location in a quiet neighborhood and easy access to everything on the Peninsula. River was running pretty good so some good noise to fall asleep too.
Very well appointed cabin. Beautiful on the river location with a lovely deck. Comfy beds and linens. Property owner very responsive and friendly. Actually prefer river view to a lake view now, love the noise of the water. Adequate parking. Easy to lock up house with your own personal code. Would be nice to have streaming options that you don’t have to login to upstairs. Love the AC units! Overall great stay.
It was a lovely stay at this clean and modernized house. The owner was lovely and the grounds were immaculate. It was amazing to wake up to the sounds of the Hamilton Branch and enjoy the starry nights on the balcony. I definitely plan to go back!
The home is even better in person! Remodeled to perfection and fun house with an incredible porch overlooking the Hamilton Branch. Super clean!
Debbie is a great host and extremely kind and accommodating. We look forward to another visit!
