Comfortable Cabin for Family

We had a delightful two-night stay here. Access to Chester/Lake Almanor and to Lassen made this the perfect spot for us. Helga keeps the place immaculate and well-stocked. Our family especially appreciated the meadow in back, as well as the fire pit for evening conversation.

Great Home Base

We were looking for a home base to explore Lassen Volcanic National Park, and this property fit the bill perfectly. The property itself was quite sufficient to our needs, and we would stay again. There were a few minor annoyances, but they were not enough to overshadow the beautiful surroundings.

Perfect location for visiting Lassen National Park and Lake Almanor

Our family, including our three young kids, had a great stay at Walter's house. The house is well located for visiting Lassen National Park (about a half hour away) and Lake Almanor (about fifteen minutes to the Canyondam boat ramp, where we rented kayaks from Lake Almanor Kayak Rentals). Although the east side of the lake had some nice houses available for rent (and a few good restaurants--Tantardino's and Luciano's), we chose to stay in the Mill Creek area because of its proximity to Lassen. The house had everything we needed for the weekend--a functional kitchen and living space--in a peaceful mountain valley setting. We had nice family meals together and watched some sports and movies on Dish Network in the evenings. We also enjoyed getting to know Walter--he was very responsive and shared interesting stories about the history of the property.

Nice cozy home

Nice and cozy older home located between Mt. Lassen and Lake Almanor. Good quiet place with spacious bedrooms. It's an older home so don't expect anything fancy, but it has all the amenities needed for a pleasant stay. Owner was very nice a helpful. We'll definitely be returning in the future.

Good proximity to Lassen Volcanic National Park

The location is about a 30 minute drive to the south and east of Lassen Volcanic National Park, and about 10 minutes west of Chester, where we had dinner each night and picked up groceries for breakfast each morning. Communication prior to arrival was fine and our host, Walter, was very nice (he stayed in another building on the property). Furnishings were a little dated but neatly arranged. Our family of 5 fit easily with the separate lock-out unit, and it was nice to have two bathrooms. The only real con from our perspective was that there were kind of a lot of bugs - spiders and insects - in the house, enough so that it made us a little uncomfortable. It didn't really cause any problems other than some unease, but we thought it worth mentioning.

This place was quite run down. I knew it would be a bit shabby from the pictures, but it was worse than anticipated. In particular, the kitchen was not cleaned well, dirty pot holders, crud in the silverware drawers. The bathrooms were cleaned well, but the rest of the place was lacking in even basic repair (curtains falling off, kitchen chairs broken) The photo of the pond was especially misleading... it was 1/3 full, mucky, with a neighbors junk behind it... unpleasant to look at. The best thing about the place was it was a decent locations. I would not recommend staying here.

Disappointed Traveler

OMG. My mom, her friend, and I drove over 6 hours, in 110° heat, from Yosemite to our Lassen NP VRBO. Once we got near the small community of Mill Creek where the VRBO address was, Google maps sent us right past it. We had to flip a U-ie, and when we finally found it, it was an uninhabitable DUMP! It was a filthy, rundown shack. I was so stressed out and disappointed 😰. There was no way in hell we were staying there. I immediately searched for alternative lodging, and found a Best Western in Chester, 10 miles away. I can’t even begin to describe how gross this place is. My poor mother and her friend. I’m so happy we were able to get into a clean room. I’m reporting this place to VRBO. I want my $687.70 back. I will dispute it on my credit card. I can’t believe VRBO even advertises this dump. Shame on you!

The bedrooms & bathrooms were very clean. The kitchen not so much. Some of the pots & pans are kind of grubby and need to be replaced. There was old food in the sink. We could see this house was cute & charming a few years ago, but it's getting somewhat tacky with age. The exterior looks very different than pictured on the VRBO site. The flowers and the planter boxes are long gone & replaced by broken concrete. The deck and fish pond are not nice. The WiFi was weak and on again,off again. Small children would have to be watched carefully when outside. The house is not bad, but needs some updating.

Beautiful view, beautiful solitude.

We enjoyed our stay at the yellow cabin, had everything we needed, and so peaceful (except for the traffic noise from the highway). Walter was very helpful and a very engaging host. Our biggest complaint is all the bird droppings on the chairs for sitting outside and the deck railings. Two pictures show flower boxes on the railings - I suggest they be put back up there. A highlight was the buck and baby deer that visited one night.

What a charming cabin for our visit to Lassen. Each day we hiked in the park and looked forward to coming back to the cabin for a relaxing evening. We grilled, sat outside and enjoyed our stay. Clean and comfortable! Helga is a great hostess and if we return to the area will hopefully be able to come back to the cabin.
