The house was exactly as advertised, in fact, it was better as the deck area was even bigger and nicer than the pictures. Host was wonderful and very accommodating. The view couldn’t be beat and the river was beautiful. Will definitely be coming back again!

What a treasure. The river view is worth the visit and it gets better from there. Plenty of room for 4 couples and some kids, too.Nice kitchen, with everything you need. Indoor and outdoor dining options. We grilled a couple of nights and dined out a few. There are not a lot of options for dining out but we enjoyed The Red Onion and would return.Hosts were great communicators and everything worked as expected. Could not ask for a better experience!

We loved this house - very clean, with all the amenities that’s perfect for a family vacation. Its location sits close to the water with beautiful views of the branch. Kids loved the pool/l table/ping pong table, big kitchen for meals, beautiful deck with a fire pit to enjoy sitting outside. Walking distance to the lake - water toys including kyaks and beach chairs for the lake were provided. We’ll definitely want to rent this house again next summer.

Hi Lornae hope to see you soon! Since your last stay, we have finished the smaller cabin so if you have a smaller group, this might be ideal. Fishing on the river should be open till mid November. Thank you again.

Great house and location!

We enjoyed a fantastic 4 nights at this house - boated daily and hung out at the house nightly. Debbie and her husband have everything you need for your stay - the ping pong table was a hit and we enjoyed hanging out on the deck listening to the river. They were excellent hosts and we would return again!

The property was a great fit for our family with 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. The kitchen was well equipped and the games, pool and ping pong table were fun. Unfortunately, we were placed under an evacuation warning after 2 nights due to the Dixie wild fire and had to leave.

Wonderful winter getaway

This is a fantastic house! It's comfortable, homey and had a lot of space for our family to spread out. The ping pong table and pool table were a big hit for the crew. Debbie was a great host and wonderful to work with. We highly recommend this home and hope to come back!

Hi Ellen, thank you for your generous review,. Note that the river is a great water access on the property, a block away by the Hamilton Branch bridge is a trail that leads you to the water, Westwood beach is less than a mile away. Thank you for your stay.

Loved it

Huge clean house, everything you could need for a stay. Lots of games and fun entertainment. Location is awesome. The river is amazing with a fun hike down to it. The hosts are spectacular. We got stuck off roading and needed an emergency pick up- they did not need to do this for us but they did - we are so grateful. Can’t wait to come back.

Amazing property and best hosts ever !

The property is very well equipped and well stocked. The adults spent most of the time on the amazing patio and kids had a blast at the pool and ping-pong/TT table. Debbie and David are the nicest and kindest people that we have ever met. They went out of their way to help us whenever we needed. We had a great time. We are going back for sure.

Amazing home and view!!!!

Our family stayed at the house for four nights. The house is beautiful but the back deck and the view of the river is amazing. We spent most of our time sitting on the deck and fishing in the river. The guys loved the pool table. Debbie and Dave are great hosts, we would definitely recommend this property to anyone wanting a beautiful home with amazing views and a short drive to Lake Almanor.

Almanor Bliss

First I'd like to say Debbie and Dave are excellent hosts and communicate regularly. The house is spacious, clean and the location is excellent. We could not have asked for a better week up at Almanor. The weather was perfect and I was reminded why I have such fond memories coming up every summer as a kid with my family and friends. Thanks again Debbie and Dave!!
