Two couple visit

Overall a very nice visit. Host very responsive to calls. Everything very clean but a bit dated. Set-up is two bedrooms with shared tub/shower, kitchen, living and deck on upper floor (ground level entry on downward sloping lot); Two bedrooms with shared shower/toilet/vanity, and laundry are on the lower "walkout basement) level with stairwell access and outside access from lower ground level. Minimal windows on this level. Upper bathroom has quite a slippery tub and no robe hook on door. A non-slip mat in tub would be helpful. Location and views great, as well as access to the river and dock.

Amazing!

Amazing water views, wildlife, water access, and ranging cattle! We couldn’t have asked for a better place! The four bedroom, two bathroom home was perfect for two families with lots of kiddos in tow! Between trips to McArthur-Burney Falls and the caves at Lassen National Park, we fished on the dock, explored the river, watched the cows and observed a small family of deer (including two adorable fawns) living just a few feet from the house. Our boys caught frogs and water snakes and were able to connect with nature. In the evening, we headed to McArthur and had dinner at the Old Merc (great food!), and played corn hole at the Buckhorn Saloon. Patricia’s place had everything we needed (including fast internet!) and we will definitely be back!

The ultimate in tranquility

You can’t beat the location of this compact rustic house and the access to a stretch of the Fall River that is otherwise difficult to gain. Our group took full advantage of the river access for launching kayaks and fishing boats .. the water is stunning! Other than the cows bellowing, grunting, snorting, and mooing in the fields (which we enjoyed), and a long running water pump (which was a minor annoyance), this was also a nice quiet place to stay. We especially appreciated that the property is dog friendly with a fenced yard. We made good use of the well equipped kitchen and meals on the deck. Patricia communicated promptly and worked with our group to meet our specific needs. If you’re looking to add some tranquility to your life, I recommend this property. Be advised that the owner supplies just 2 rolls of TP in each bathroom. Our group consisted of 6 adults and by our 4th night we were out.

Amazing Place to Stay in Fall River!

This property was just as advertised...clean, private, and in one of the most beautiful settings imaginable. The private river access cannot be beat. Communication with the host also could not have been better. Very happy overall, and would absolutely stay hear again.

Lovely home in rural & river setting.

Very cozy & relaxing home set next to Fall River. Quality furnishings, with nice windows bringing in plenty of fresh country air, as well as fine views. Surrounded by wonderful landscaping, with lots of birds & deer, and some nearby cows. Very quiet & peaceful day and night (one exception: there was a rather loud outdoor party at a place about 300 yards away - ended around 11 pm - very likely a rare occurrence). Directions were easy to follow, and the owner was a pleasure to speak with. VRBO's description was accurate. Great place to relax & surround yourself with nature.

Good place to get away

My friend hadn’t spent time with his family since his sister passed away, and his house isn’t big enough to accommodate much more than him. We rented the property so they all could get together, and it was perfect. It was isolated enough to be private but close enough to town that going to the store wasn’t an imposition. Pat checked in with us to make sure everything was going well, and everything we needed was there, including the internet. Thanks!

Wildlife Everywhere

We loved our stay. We saw lots of different birds, tons of deer (one day when we got back from golfing, two of them were just hanging out in the driveway), and watched a beaver swim up and down the river. It was a great place to be while we were not on the golf course chasing the little white ball around. Lovely property.

Lift off to Lassen

Panoramic views, resident deer, cows and wide open spaces. We had great stay at the River Ranch. Our kids went fishing daily with our dogs in tow, our son practiced his bike riding around the house and on our day trip to Lassen Volcanic National Park and we enjoyed the beautiful stars on the porch. Perfectly appointed down to the heating blankets in the beds and the extensive variety of kitchen utensils. The local town of McArthur has all the necessities and Burney Falls and Lassen National Forest are only a short drive away. Make the trip, you won’t regret it!

Beautiful, but chilly in November

The landscape setting of this property is gorgeous. The house is simple, yet functional (I love me a good dishwasher!), and was spotless. Beds were comfortable. However, 2 of the bedrooms are located in a basement area, and the main floor bedrooms didn't seem to have any heat vents (so closing the doors made them colder.) It's probably refreshingly cool in the summer, but was too cold for us on the 23-degree November nights we were there. The host kindly provided heating pads for the beds, which helped, but we had to look all over the house to supplement the blankets on the beds, and found only light cotton blankets. The thermostat was at 50 when we arrived, and it took most of a day to make it up to 65. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone expecting to use the basement bedrooms during the winter.

Relaxing and sweet

Perfect relaxing space to enjoy the weekend. We had our friends the cows who greeted us each morning, at night we would eat on the deck and see families of deer come forage in the nearby field. We would walk down to the river in the late afternoon and wade in the cool water. There were birds galore. Burney Falls was a short ride away and was so beautiful. I highly recommend this home for a peaceful and relaxing get away to unplug and enjoy nature.

Great riverfront house

So easy to explore the Fall River. What a treat! House is in a unique location which we likely would not have explored the area if we hadn't known about it through vrbo. Also so close to Burney Falls and other lakes and rivers. House is simple, but met our needs. House was a perfect base camp for our adventures. Great to come back after each day to be greeted by the peacefulness, the beauty and the friendly cows.

Friendly cows!

A fantastic property and host! We wanted a put-in on the Fall River, and we got an excellent one for our kayaks. We paddled/drifted all the way down to the Cal-Trout take out, ~8 miles. There was a profuse PMD hatch at the house one morning when weather rolled in. It was very nice to come back to gorgeous views and friendly cows! An adjacent property owner (a retired doctor who also has a rental property next door) confirmed that Patricia is a really nice lady. She even offered to have a family member give me a ride back to my car at the house from Cal Trout! I walked it instead (I do a lot of walking for exercise), but please don't try it- it was long! After a long paddle, 5 miles felt like 10! We had a lot of fun, and will definitely be back.
