Loved the location. We walked everywhere around town. Shubert’s was just SO close, we got ice cream daily. House was perfect for our needs. The outdoor table and bbq in the garden was wonderful. And of course, drinking morning coffee on the patio as we “people watched” was really nice too.

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.

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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
We arrived and quickly realized there wasn't A/C per the posting because it was 87F in the house. After we fully checked the property we found cobwebs, dead & live bugs, broken locks on windows, locked attic room above, fridge not cooling properly, heavy dust on cabinets, and the couch in the living area was not a sleeper as posted. The host, Brian, was very responsive, but appeared to be a part of a property management team and not the actual owner. Not a big fan of how it all went down upon arrival since we had driven over 14 hours from Phoenix to work all week. Hoping the host updates the stay or the posting. We were refunded, but I had to deal with Vrbo to get that going prior to the end of the reservation because it was never indicating we checked out the very next day.

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.

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.
