Property was extremely small. Backyard was dirty and not suitable for outdoor use. The second bed was a loveseat that was not appropriate for an adult. Sleep on. Owner did not provide access code. It was a hassle.

Cute little place right off lower Bidwell park. It was right off highway 99 but it was not loud or obnoxious and surprisingly quite 95% of the time. I appreciated the small turffed shaded areas for the dogs, especially since I didn't want to walk them on the 100 degree days on the cement. It has an amazing location and is the perfect place for a single gal with 2 dogs to take refuge from the chaos of graduation weekend. The only negative (which was more a personal preference than a huge downside), was the shower. It was a standing shower but the dual shower head had too much pressure for the small holes the water came out, felt more like little needles than a relaxing shower. Would definitely recommend and stay again as long as they will have us!

The little house is in a perfect location. We hit the walking trail first thing in the morning, which was lovely. The house itself has everything you could need. The bed was very comfortable and we had a peaceful night's sleep. We would definitely stay again if ever in the area. The owners are very friendly and accommodating.

I will start by saying the owner was very kind and communicative - which we appreciated. And on the positive side it was very clean. That said, this property is not set up for three guests. The fold out love seat futon is not fit for an adult to sleep on. The shower is very very small. Also, while not controlled by the owner; we were without electricity both nights from 8:30 pm for 60 to 120 minutes making it a challenge to get to bed at a decent temperature and hour. While the owner said it was unusual, the rechargeable camping lantern in the middle of the dining room table should have been a clue. So a real mixed experience when our primary need was a comfy place to sleep and shower.

This is our 3rd year in a row staying at this property and we will stay there again next year. That alone should tell you all you need to know about the property, the owner, the property manager and the quality of this particular VRBO!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this small cottage. It was perfect for the two of us. It backs up onto Bidwell Park which is a great place to walk and enjoy some outdoor time. The house is very clean and has everything you could possibly want for your stay, We appreciated the coffee beans and the French press. The only thing we could have asked for was a better shower head for the small shower, but it was still quite ok. We would definitly recommend this place in Chico.

It was prettier than the vrbo pictures. So nice inside. A very short walk to the park & creek. Owner very nice..

This place is exactly what it promises: available host when needed with a good sense of humor, downtown Chico very close, but the best is the access (behind the house!) to Chico Creek with walk and bike way for miles. Nice neighborhood and nice people all around! We will definitely stay here again when and if we return!

This small home is near the park, but also near a noisy highway. The traffic did not bother us too much, but I was surprised by it. The batteries were low in the remote control for the TV, and several light bulbs were burned out. It was easy to communicate with the owner, but it would be nice for those kinds of things to be checked ahead of time. Chico is a lovely, friendly city and staying here was affordable and convenient. Even our dogs were allowed, and there is a little yard in the back.

We had a wonderful stay at this perfectly located property. Right next to Bidwell park walking trail and river-easy in and out with driveway! Close to Chico State where we visited for family weekend-we will stay again!!!

This was our 2nd stay in this property and it once again didn’t disappoint. Charming, clean, cozy, comfortable, excellent location, close to everything including the freeway which you cannot really hear from this rental. The communication with the owner was effortless and prompt … once again, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. See ya next year and know that the 3rd time will be a charm too.

Nice area for our dog in back. Bed too noisy. Not familiar with the TV but had books with us. The shower was really small.
