Only parking was on busy Street. While not perfect it passed. Well maintained and nice property. Master bedroom super. Twin bed in second bed was not particularly comfortable but made it work. Immaculate place nicely decorated and comfy. Thanks

This was our second time staying at the Bidwell Park Bungalow, and loved it just as much as the first time. The house is so cleaned, stocked, and back yard with bocce is so fun. We will stay again!

This was a nice place to stay, the only drawback was the lack of parking-it’s a tight squeeze to get it out on the drivers side without getting hit by on coming traffic!

The house is adorable! Close proximity to town - walk to restaurants, college & park. Extremely clean, decorated in a gorgeous way! Loved my stay, thank you

My teenage daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bidwell Bungalow! The house is walking distance to downtown and the park which makes it really fun and easy to get around town. The best part (for me) was playing the old Duffy's jukebox when I was hanging out in the house! I would definitely book this house again!

Great bungalow within walking distance of Lower Bidwell Park. We swam at Sycamore pool to beat the heat. Was also just a short drive to downtown and Sierra Nevada Brewing. My only complaint was that one of the provided bikes had a flat tire, but since the bikes were a bonus in the first place I really don't think it's fair to complain about that. Bocce court in the back was a fun touch. And very cool old jukebox in the living room. I didn't end up communicating with the owners due to our being in a rush, but the intro email provided easy to follow info for arrival and everything went very smoothly. Thanks for a great stay!

We loved the location we could ride to Bidwell Park and swim at 1 mile- loved having bikes for adults to use. Close to downtown for live music and restaurants. The home was clean and the backyard was perfect for kids and dogs to play.

My husband, our two young children plus our dog Misty had a wonderful stay at the Bidwell Bungalow! My husband and I met at Chico State over 10 years ago and returned this past week to attend his MBA grad ceremony. This home was in such a great location, we walked into downtown multiple times daily and walked to campus. It was the perfect size for our family, decorated nicely and clean inside. The juke box was really cool! We enjoyed playing music while home. Our kids called it the "big juice box" and thought it was amazing! Next time we are in Chico we will stay here again. Thank you!

We loved our stay at the Bidwell Bungalow. Super cozy and the perfect location for exploring Chico within walking distance of downtown and Bidwell park. The property was super clean and had everything we needed for a super pleasure stay. No hassle check in. We loved the bocce setup and patio area. We definitely will stay here again on our next trip to Chico.

Great location. Clean place. Parking was confusing at first. Just parked two doors down on 5th St.

We had a nice visit! It was a perfect location and close to everything.
Only downside was parking. We were confused on where to park. Didn't seem like it was okay to park on the street in front of the house. It was a very busy road and a lot of traffic going very fast. More direction on this would have been helpful.

My husband and I stayed here for a weekend trip. The location is great, right by Bidwell Park! The house had everything we needed. The yard was really awesome, unfortunately it rained for much of our time there, but we hope to come back back when it's warm and would definitely stay here again.

It was a wonderfully warm house in a perfect Chico locale.

Even though the location of this unit is right off the very busy Pine street, The Home is super cute, warm, well stocked and is great for walking to coffee and downtown shops!
Parking right in front of home is convenient.
The homes in this Golden circle of chico are beautiful and make for many enjoyable walks, especially with all the different fall leaves 🍂🍁

We came up to Chico to visit out daughter at Chico State and this house was just perfect for our family. Great location, clean, comfortable and a great back yard for BBQ and Bocce hang out. Close to everything, we could walk to get coffee and have breakfast. We will stay here again.

Very cute place. Great backyard with bocce ball court, patio, bbq, etc. Very well stocked and nicely furnished, but most importantly for us, we could walk anywhere we wanted to go. We will definitely be back!

Enjoyed our stay…walking distance to lower bidwell and downtown. Home was cute and clean. The only downside is that it was on a busy street …but you can’t hear the traffic noise from inside.

Very close to downtown and we enjoyed the Chico-themed interior (especially the jukebox from Duffy's). The house stayed cool with the room AC units even though the outside temps were mid-90s.

This home was a perfect fit for our family. We spend most of our time visiting with our Chico/Paradise family and friends. But when we came back to the Bungalow it was bright, clean and an easy place to relax and rest.

My family really enjoyed our stay! The place was clean, cozy, and charming with all the amenities. Great location with less than a 10 minute walk to down town and just around the corner from Bidwell Park. The street is a heavier traveled one, but wasn’t too loud in my opinion. We had some great bocce ball matches—so fun!! I definitely recommend walking to Tender Loving coffee house for a lavender latte and blueberry muffin—yum! The back room with the twin beds doesn’t have a cooling unit and gets warmer, just FYI. The hosts do provide a fan though. Overall wonderful stay!
