You have a nice view of a meadow and the mountains from the back. You may even have deer visiting the creek in the evenings in the back meadow!! The night sky is incredible for stargazers!!

Nearby attractions:
• Mt. Lassen Volcanic Park: 22 miles to Lassen - over 100 miles of hiking trails, lakes, bubbling mud pots, and waterfalls.

It was nice stay. The property has a pond and little creek running through the green field with flowers. It was pleasant to have dinner at the patio overlooking the creek. Well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer available for guests. We arrived late, around 6 pm, but the house was not ready. The host apologized and suggested few restaurants at Chester. We had to wait for another 1,5 hr while the place will be ready. The bathtub has drainage problem. Windows have a lot of spider webs and dead flies. Very convenient if you visiting Lassen park.

Great location to hike Devil's Kitchen, and kayak in the surrounding reservoirs. Birds nests visible from the kitchen, and master bedroom. The birds were amazing to witness in their daily routines. The backyard was a beautiful scene of pines, mountain ridges, and a collection pond with great sounds of water flowing. (The front of the cottage faced a trailer and had road noise).

Family trip to Lassen

Great location for a visit to Lassen Park. Lovely view of the woods and stars and conveniently located off the main highway and within easy driving distance to Chester for groceries and restaurants. We loved the covered porch and grill and the adorable birds nests. The baby birds were super cute.

Don't take off your shoes!

Due to limited availability in the area, this residence was booked. The house was filthy. I had to ask the home owner to mop and vacuum. (and still not done successfully) One shower was completely clogged with hair and could not be used. The house smelled like a bug bomb when entering and by the end of the first day, large ants were everywhere in the kitchen.

It was hard to find to start. Wifi didn't work, toilet with poop hadn't been flushed, bathtub had black hair around the drain and spiders, black ants in the kitchen. For what I paid, I certainly expected this to be much better. Would not reccomend.

Great place to stay for Lassen

The place is clean and cozy and the property manager was attentive and available (not that we needed much). It has all the basics and we had no problems settling in. There's a nice covered deck area around back which is great for coffee and bird watching in the AM. It's 20 mins to Lassen and 10 mins to Chester which is the closest town with amenities like gas and groceries. Definitely recommend.

Great place, nice owner!

The house amidst forested mountains is the ideal place to escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The sound of a little creek running by is peaceful and soothing. It is close to the South West Entrance of Lassen National Park, Warner Valley, and Lake Almanor. The place is clean and safe, and you the owner is very accommodating. Would come to stay anytime!

Cute, quiet, and simple.

We rented this place to go snowshoeing for the weekend at Lassen National Park during February. The property was ok, it’s behind the owners home and a closed down hotel. It wasn’t terribly dirty but definitely needed some deeper cleaning. Not enough space heaters and it got real cold during the night. The kitchen was not stalked with basic cooking things, luckily we came prepared. I message the owner for a 1hr late check out but never got a response. I wouldn’t mind staying again, even though i wish we felt free to explore the property since it’s in a beautiful forest.

Exactly what we needed

It was perfect for us and pretty much what we were looking for/what we expected. We travelled with two young children and appreciated Walter's flexibility in meeting our needs/requests. His communication was excellent and he was really helpful in answering some of the questions we had before we arrived! The cottage could be a tad bit cleaner (eg, cobwebs as well as spots here and there) but really, nothing major to complain about as the essentials were all there. Our family enjoyed our stay here!

Good cabin close to Lassen NP

We had a nice stay at the cabin with four adults. The location close to Lassen NP made it a perfect spot for our XC skiing trips. The cabin was cozy warm and well equipped and communication with the owner speedy and helpful. The only minus was the cleanliness of some of the floors and bathrooms but overall a great stay and we'd come back for another trip.

Lovely cabin in the mountains.

We had a lovely stay here in the mountains. The place was spotless and I like the blend between rustic decor and the colorful wall art. Walter dropped everything and got us checked in at an odd hour. Truly top notch.
