We had a very comfortable stay in a great location. Short walk to Bidwell Park and downtown to the eateries. The yard was perfect for our two small dogs. The house had a very chill and relaxing vibe.

Gorgeous walking neighborhood near park and restaurants
The house's spacious kitchen is a gathering place. And the front porch is great stop for parents and to kids returning from school in the PM. It's also an ideal location from which to explore the town's restaurants, shops, museums and much-loved park.

Amazing location, lovely house and grounds
Cook's garden, rose bushes, and burgeoning loquat and orange trees gave the property a feeling of abundance. The house is homey rather than elegant. The spacious kitchen is great for cooking and family time. And the front porch is cool in the early day, a nice place to sip coffee and meet people on their way to downtown.

Great Get Away
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay. The cottage was clean and comfortable with a well-equipped kitchen. Its location is convenient for walks downtown. We were delighted to have access to three serviceable bicycles, which made for a breezy ride through nearby Bidwell Park. We'd definitely return.

Very Nice
This house is located in a quiet neighborhood yet is close to a main thoroughfare as well as downtown. We visited the mountains to see the snow, Orovile Dam, and restaurants in downtown Chico and all were easily accessible.

Pup's second favorite home
Perfect little Chico house for our returning alumni getaway weekend. Perfect distance to downtown restaurants and bars without being in the thick of party houses. We walked everywhere and enjoyed this cute neighborhood. The house was perfect for bringing our dog. The backyard is enclosed and there's a side yard with a nice lawn. They even had a dog bed and dog bowl there. The hosts were very accommodating and made the process easy. I would def stay here again.

Comfortable and Convenient
My husband, myself and our 15 pound Havanese dog stayed at the property for three nights.. We were in Chico to help care for a terminally ill close friend.. I love this older section of Chico, with it’s charming homes. The house provided everything we needed.

The perfect Chico getaway
This house is a perfect chico getaway. The house common areas feel large and well furnished. The location is perfection. Walking to/from dinner and drinks was easy. The yard is fantastic for hangs and for the dogs. There were bikes and a bike lock for cruising downtown or the campus. Parking was plentiful. We parked right in front of the house every night. The water was hot and with good pressure and the towels were plentiful, soft and absorbent. It’s a perfect chico bungalow in just the right spot. We will stay here again. Thanks for having us.

Our Birdwatching Trip
Overall, we really liked it, the kitchen was perfect. Water pressure and temps were perfect throughout house. Love the trash and recycle set up. Closets and storage were great. Location was very good for walkers or those who wanted the down town area close. Suggestions: Air condition units are covered by drapes, so you have to lift curtains or as we did tie them up. Privacy then is an issue. Lighting in front bedroom is sparse. Carpet needs replacing since it is pet friendly, perhaps manufactured wood? Thank you, overall we were content!

About the host

Hosted by Brian

Host profile image
I grew up in Chico and have since moved to Lake Tahoe. After much time away, more of my family is returning to Chico so I'd like to keep my house available for friends, family and of course, myself to stay in.

What makes this property unique

I love staying near downtown and being able to hop on my cruiser bike to check out the farmers' market, go for a burger & beer at the iconic Sierra Nevada Brewery or cruise through Bidwell Park and enjoy the cool greenery. Of just wander downtown to hear the Thursday night concert and eat at the food trucks, or partake of the fine cocktails created by our expert, local mixologists.
