About this house rental

A corner house close to Enloe & downtown Chico, the Zen Garden is a relaxing hideaway where you can kick off your shoes, lay back, and enjoy some of the beautiful things of this amazing town!

The home has many Japanese inspired design elements. You will find that the king bed & twin beds are low to the ground to honor the design. If low beds aren’t your preference, the queen bed is a standard height.
This home is located on a busy road

Lawn maintenance takes place Thursday mornings, and fountain cleaning occurs Tuesday afternoons, with flexible scheduling if needed.

Our backyard is much more plain currently and no longer has the tree. We had to interrupt the landscaping redesign due to the recent fires. Our backyard is a back patio with patio table to seat 4 and BBQ and hot tub. The hot tub is very exposed currently.

When entering the bonus room, please keep an eye out for the step.

⛩️🛺The gate is being worked on and is currently tied open to allow your vehicles in and out of the home. Please do not tamper with the stakes holding the gate open.
Please do not park in front of the business across the street.
Thank you

🐕🐱Pets are welcome! A fee of $48 per pet applies to your stay. Please let us know if you`re bringing any furry friends!

🖼️🎨There is some unique local street artwork adjacent to the home. If people slow down as they drive by to look at the home, that is normal as the home’s front landscape draws onlookers.

😁☕🍵Since we do also have a cleaning fee, we have a no-stress check-out procedure. That means as long as the home isn`t left in poor condition, you can enjoy a nice warm cup of coffee in the morning before you leave!

🌱🌳🌼We take great care in maintaining our grounds, and we`re proud to have a dedicated gardener. Currently, he doesn`t follow a fixed schedule but tends to the garden whenever he believes it`s time for some care. Thank you for understanding and appreciating our green spaces!
