Love!

The place is adorable. Felt like we were in a treehouse. The gardens, trees amazing. Very quiet, tranquil, and comfortable. The cottage had everything we could have needed. Very clean, new and comfortable. Having a private shady driveway to park in was a bonus. Will definitely recommend to friends. We feel so lucky to have found this gem! Thank you.

Stayed here with my sister while in town for a family weekend at my daughters sorority. Close to the action uteri removed enough for privacy. Space surrounded by a gorgeous garden and lovely dogwood trees! Definitely would stay here again. Loved!

Great Place to Stay in Chico

Great location, in walking distance to downtown. Secure entrance to a beautiful garden. The unit is clean and comfortable with a great bed. It’s like living in a tree house. The private deck is lovely. I will return!
