This house is fabulous! Surpasses the description and photos! It is so comfortable, no matter how large or small your group. It is extremely well stocked, better than I have ever seen in any vacation rental. The house is spotless and very well decorated. Stacy and Cynthia are extremely responsive and helpful. Would highly recommend this house and we hope to return in the future.

This was our third year hosting a reunion for 5 couples at the Yreka mansion. The place continues to meet or exceed all of our expectations. Ten people can comfortably inhabit this space and not feel crowded in the least. The table seats twelve. The kitchen has every pot, pan, dish, and utensil needed to cook for a crowd, plus plenty of space for everyone to participate. The beds are comfortable and the neighborhood is very quiet. Everyone in our group slept very well. The place has always been spotlessly clean and well maintained. There's off-street parking for at least 5 cars. We plan to return next year.

This mansion was beyond our expectations! The entire property is beautiful! Looks vintage yet modern. Wonderful place. My Mother came as well and was beyond excited. Every drawer is organized and completely stocked. Lots of attention to detail. Looks like they had a designer decorate. This property is beyond a 10!!!

Our big family loves having a place where we can all get together. The mansion is such a charming step back in time. Our grandkids organized a game night of live Clue. Playing the murder mystery from room to room with costumes and cardboard weapons. The house is well equipped and very comfortable . We will definitely come back.

We booked the house to be near my sister for Christmas and had absolutely MAGICAL stay. The owners decorated with a beautiful Christmas tree and garlands in the entry, Christmas music CDs for the player, and the Victorian charm took care of the rest of the house. The kitchen was AMAZINGLY well stocked, I’ve never stayed anywhere with such a great kitchen. We appreciated all the extra lap blankets and other cozy touches that made us feel at home. I’ve stayed in several rentals, this was by far the best we’ve ever had. Thank you for a great holiday, and I hope we have another opportunity to stay there again!

This was the second time that a group of us have rented this beautiful house for a ‘friends reunion’. Once again, it did not disappoint. The place is spotlessly, clean, beautifully decorated, and large enough to easily accommodate our group of 10. The kitchen has everything needed to cook for and serve a large group. We plan to book it again next year.

Family gathering

This house was perfect for a gathering of extended family. We had large group meals around the table, and the ample seating in the front room, library and elsewhere made it possible for smaller groups to visit comfortably. The house is beautifully appointed and the bedrooms are luxurious.

Yreka Gillis Mansion

My siblings and I rented the Gillis Mansion to have a place where our family could stay together when we came to Yreka to celebrate my Dad's 90th birthday. This property was perfect for our stay. There was plenty of space for everyone and the house is perfectly appointed. We enjoyed cooking in the beautiful and modern kitchen and all being able to fit in the dining room at the table together. We had a perfect weekend at this beautifully restored property.

Renewal

Came to Yreka for a memorial service in Horsecreek for my cousin. Life long friends and their daughter joined us. We were so comfortable visiting and talking old memories in this beautiful setting. We’d all recommend the Gillis mansion to anyone. Every detail to make the stay comfortable was covered.

Montaque Wedding

We were a group of 5 couples attending a wedding in Montaque. The Gillis Mansion is like stepping back in time with all the modern amenities. I was amazed at the comfort of the very well-stocked house. Our whole group agrees we would definitely stay at the Gillis Mansion again!

Such a wonderful rental!

During our 3 night stay, everyone thoroughly enjoyed the house, including all those that had hotel rooms in town! Every room was nicely laid out & equipped with everything necessary for a memorable time. I’m not sure it could have worked any better for our family group and we would not hesitate to rent it again in the future! This history of the house made it even more memorable for us all. We can’t thank the owners enough for having this chance to enjoy this home!

Friends group

This has got to be one of the best vacation rentals I’ve stayed at in the US, and I’ve stayed at a lot. From start to finish our group of 8 enjoyed every moment of this lovely historic home. It had great vibes, cleanliness, space, and comfort. Our host Stacy was top notch and was there anytime we needed her. The kitchen had all the essentials you needed to make large meals. We definitely will return and stay at this amazing place!!

Thank you so much for your kind review, Rebecca. Just want to point out to future guests that Cynthia is the host (for anyone who may be confused) and Stacy is the very excellent house manager. Stacy prepares the house for guests and meets them upon arrival. She is able to handle all questions and needs guests may have during their stay.

Family gathering

This is a great property to enjoy if you want to cook together and eat together at the large dining room table.There is plenty of room for 5 couples to sleep but the additional sleeping arrangements are not as described, there are no futons. Also one of the bedrooms does not have air conditioning and it gets hot.Overall a beautiful place to stay.

Response from VrboOwner on Jul 7, 2025
I would have fixed both of these issues had Susan said something when she first arrived, however the only feedback we received while she was staying the five days was an overwhelming gushing of how gorgeous the Mansion is. We now have a fan for guests in the first floor bedroom (which already stays cooler in the summer than the upper floors). The upper floor bedrooms each have an AC unit. And we have added more air mattresses and fold up futons, in addition to the roll-away beds we already had at the Mansion. Susan's party was very large and had rotating guests coming and going for her stay, so no wonder she ran out of mattresses. We would have immediately gone and brought some to the house had she said something. Oh well, I guess a perfect review score eventually has to be wrecked by someone.

Beautiful Historic Home

We had a great time staying at the Gillis Mansion with our kids and grandkids. It’s a beautiful property equipped with everything we needed. Both the owner and property manager were great to communicate with. We played tons of games and had a live Clue night in costumes . Lifetime memories. 5 stars!
