About this cabin rental
Step back into time when life was slower at this quaint cabin located in the shadow of Mount Lassen. Enjoy the short 1/4 mile walk to view Lake Almanor, one of Northern California's true gems. On your return from the lake stop by Carol's Cafe for a slice of true Americana fare. Pick up one of Carol's famous pies to enjoy while relaxing on the front porch as you rock your cares away. In the evening sip a cold beverage on the large back porch while enjoying Lassen National Forest and the wildlife that abounds there.

We come to the lake every year, and this cabin never disappoints! It is very family friendly, clean, quiet, walking distance to the lake, and affordable! Claire and Rick are great hosts and we will continue to book here for our yearly visits!

Another great weekend at the Lake.

This cabin is perfect for our return to my childhood summer vacation Lake. It is a five minute walk ( all downhill) to the water. I recommend taking a little longer route to return that has a longer gradual grade. New addition was the air purifier in the main cabin.The owners have clearly been doing regular upkeep and labeled switches, details make staying so nice. Owner responds quickly and is incredibly helpful. Everything you need from coffee grinder to a spare toothbrush, and a functioning ice maker!! Great linens. Great mattresses. Be smart- vent with the cool morning air and this cabin stays comfy all summer long.

Great place to rent. Close to the lake. Walking distance to one of the more popular breakfast establishments. 15 mile long bike path along the lake. Clean and quiet, so peaceful!! Will definitely be back.

Our family really enjoyed our stay. This cabin was the perfect size for our group of 3 adults and 2 kids. It has national forest land behind it, and we loved hanging out on the back porch and in the back yard. It has a great location near a swim beach (low water level but that's true across CA) and in a quiet neighborhood. Also, the cabin was super clean, the owner left lots of helpful info and basic necessities were provided. Thanks for sharing this lovey home!

Little cabin in the woods
The cabin looked even better in person than the pics online. Very clean and cute. It is located in a neighborhood so there is houses on each side but the neighbors were very friendly. Great getaway!

Cool Even When Hot
This was a great property. A good place to stay with easy access all around Lake Almanor. The home stays cool even when the temps reach the high 80's. The property manager was quick to respond to any questions and the condition of the home was excellent!

Perfect getaway
This was the perfect getaway location, enjoyed a nice walk to the lake. The cabin was very clean, and inviting! Perfect place to sit outside and watch the sunset, or play hide and seek with our 7 year old. Would stay again!

Wonderful cabin in the woods
Absolutely loved this cute and clean cabin. The owners have thought of everything you might need - comfortable beds, well stocked kitchen in case you forgot something, games, puzzles, movies, corn hole, and even cute little lights for evenings spent on the back porch! Loved the close proximity to the lake - we brought bikes and enjoyed riding the trails and down to Carols Cafe. Will definitely want to return here in the future!

Fantastic cabin!
We had a great stay at this cabin. It was the perfect size for us, family of 4. The location was ideal- woods in the back and a short walk to the lake. The kitchen was well stocked with all the cooking needs. We hope to return and would love to rent this place again!

Clean, Comfortable Cabin near the Lake
We loved our stay at the cabin! It was only a ten minute leisurely walk to the beach. The cabin is clean, well-decorated, and well stocked with kitchen supplies. It's a great place for kids, with the bunk bed bedroom stocked with fun cartoon VHS. Only thing the house needs is a pack n play for the littlest ones! Otherwise, this is a great spot for families wanting to enjoy Lake Almanor and all the natural beauty Lassen and Plumas counties have to offer.

Happiness in the woods
Fantastic cabin in the woods. Very quiet neighborhood, back porch has a great view of the woods. Anything and everything in the kitchen, we really didn't need to bring in any spices. Restaurant about 100 yards away and on the lake, fabulous food. The cabin is very comfy and quiet. reading on the front porch in rocking chairs ( what a plus), I will definitely pass this on to all my family for a great place to stay in the woods.
Thank you Claire

Little Cabin in the Woods
This is our family's 3rd summer staying here, and we always have a great time. The forest is just out the back and Carol's Restaurant, with the best blueberry pancakes, is just down the hill in the front. The cabin is well stocked with board games and puzzles .It has a porch on both the front and back of the house which is wonderful for relaxing with a good book. We look forward to coming again next summer.

Most wonderful Little Cabin we have ever stayed at!
Claire,
Thanks for sharing your cabin with the three of us gals that grew up in Chico, vacationed in Almanor and love coming back. Favorite spots were the back porch looking out at the forest and the family room in front of the gas stove for all our conversations. Your kitchen was so well stocked (I am a kitchen person) that we wanted for nothing when it came to cooking. Neat, clean, wonderful shower, and perfect design for a cabin!
It was hard to find anything wrong!
Improve Experience for Future Guests...maybe a Costco Mattress Topper for the upstairs queen so that it sleeps like a cloud just like the Master Bed.
Thanks, Claire, for going above and beyond with communication and offering to return a forgotten item!
We would love to return again!!

Fabulous find
Lovely house in a quiet area. Beautifully presented and very well equipped. We found it very easy to get to Lassen and enjoyed quiet days by the lake swimming and walking. Seeing wildlife walking past the house while we had breakfast was a big bonus for our young children. We enjoyed playing board games and spending time as a family.
Just to note the nearest supermarket is in Chester a 15-20 minute drive away, so bring supplies.

We love your Little Cabin in the Woods. It was well stocked; it contained everything we needed. It was very clean and very comfortable. We had a lot of fun, and the kids and I especially enjoyed playing your Dog-opoly game!

Perfect Cabin in the Woods
We spent 8 nights at this wonderful cabin in the woods. It was just the right size for our family of four adults, although the cabin does sleep six. The cabin is well stocked with everything you need, although you might want to bring beach/camping chairs for sitting out in the sun. The back area has a great, shaded deck that faces the forest. The back area has plenty of room to set up bean bag games or lounge chairs. The location is quiet, yet walking distant to two restaurants and a bar (one very close, the other .8 mile away). We can't wait to go back for a longer stay. One caveat if you are the kind of person who can't disconnect from technology...there is internet service, but it is very slow to connect and sometimes doesn't connect at all for a while. If this is the kind of thing that wrecks your vacation be prepared. But you don't come to the mountains and lakes to sit on your phone or tablet, right? The things I personally appreciated the most were the signs by the doors that warned you to keep the doors closed at all times because of bat season. I love the mountains, but I am very afraid of bats and the signs made me confident that the owner cabin took extra care to ensure her place was critter-free. Thank you, Claire, for sharing your beautiful peace of paradise! (If you ever want to sell it, just let me know!)

The cabin is well maintained and very clean. It's easy to see that the family who owns it loves their cabin. I felt like a well taken care of guest. The cabin was in the perfect location. We had easy access to the lake for swimming and fishing. We were only a short drive to Chester and Lassen Volcanic National Park. I hope my family gets another opportunity to stay here.

We had lots of boat issues and stayed in the cabin more of our days than we planned! This cabin is very relaxing and comfortable. We enjoyed sitting in the back and watching deer walk 20 ft from us! The shade from the trees was welcoming during the hottest times of the day! The neighbors we met were friendly and helpful with the boat issues we had. The internet was definitely spotty which was not helpful while needing to search troubleshooting for the boats but it was nice that the younger people in our group were not able to ignore us the whole trip as they talked online to their friends! The kitchen was well stocked for what we brought to cook. The location is perfect for using the free launch or just taking a nice walk to the beach to watch the sunset. Definitely recommend the cabin!
