The location of the property was great and provided us with easy access to Lassen Volcanic NP for two days. The kitchen was tight quarters but more than made up for it with all of the accessories available and allowed us to cook breakfast and dinner easily. It had great space for my two teens. The owners were responsive and lovely to work with.

Comfy home away from home

My husband and I had an excellent stay and enjoyed all the snow. Patti did an amazing job clearing the snow on the driveway and porch. Communication and check-in were superb. There was plenty of wood and kindling to build a fire each night. The kitchen was well stocked with condiments, spices, and many extras if you are interested in cooking while you are there. Great location for visiting Lassen Volcanic National Park and going into town. If you are in the area, this is the place to stay!

Great place, has everything you need. Beds and couches are comfy. Only problem we had was finding the place the first night we arrived. It was dark and we couldn't see the driveway or the house (which is far back from the road). Reflective numbers at the end of the drive or a porch light on would have helped.

Cozy and cute place to stay just 30 minutes from Lassen Park. My Bestie and I used this as a homebase for visiting the park and a day of fishing for trout on Lake Alamanor. After a long day of hiking, it was nice to come back to this little nugget in Chester and sit by the fire pit and relax. The place is adorable, clean and just as is pictured and Patti was super responsive.

Perfect, beautiful location and home for get-away

The property is at a beautiful location with a great view of the meadow by the lake. There's a great short trail that takes you through the meadow that we walked a couple of times. The home is very comfortable, very cleanly maintained, and has everything you need. Really appreciated nice touches like have bbq coals ready for us. Small but well-stocked kitchen.

Cozy!

We love Chester! This was our first time staying in a VRBO while visiting Chester (and visiting this late in the season). The house was so cozy with beautiful views. We had a really relaxing visit and stayed warm with the wood stove. All of the board games, kitchen supplies, BBQ, etc. were so convenient. Our hosts have an easy check in and check out process. This laid back weekend was exactly what we were hoping for.
