I will start by saying the owner was very kind and communicative - which we appreciated. And on the positive side it was very clean. That said, this property is not set up for three guests. The fold out love seat futon is not fit for an adult to sleep on. The shower is very very small. Also, while not controlled by the owner; we were without electricity both nights from 8:30 pm for 60 to 120 minutes making it a challenge to get to bed at a decent temperature and hour. While the owner said it was unusual, the rechargeable camping lantern in the middle of the dining room table should have been a clue. So a real mixed experience when our primary need was a comfy place to sleep and shower.

This is our 3rd year in a row staying at this property and we will stay there again next year. That alone should tell you all you need to know about the property, the owner, the property manager and the quality of this particular VRBO!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this small cottage. It was perfect for the two of us. It backs up onto Bidwell Park which is a great place to walk and enjoy some outdoor time. The house is very clean and has everything you could possibly want for your stay, We appreciated the coffee beans and the French press. The only thing we could have asked for was a better shower head for the small shower, but it was still quite ok. We would definitly recommend this place in Chico.

This place is exactly what it promises: available host when needed with a good sense of humor, downtown Chico very close, but the best is the access (behind the house!) to Chico Creek with walk and bike way for miles. Nice neighborhood and nice people all around! We will definitely stay here again when and if we return!
