About this property

Big Dipper - Fall is Fun time! Woot! Woot!

Big Dipper is located a few hours north of Sacramento on the edge of beautiful Lassen National Forest. This inviting and cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home with filtered lake views awaits your family`s memories. Located in a heavily wooded, quiet residential neighborhood, this home offers all the amenities that a family would need to relax and unwind. Whether it`s relaxing by the fireplace, or exploring Lake Almanor, you`re not too far from all the activities Plumas County has to offer.

Stargazer is a shared property with Little Dipper Studio (another Airbnb listing) which can be booked together if you’d like more space and/or the property all to yourself.) Big Dipper and Little Dipper are separated by 40 feet and a common lawn. They have separate driveways, parking, and outdoor seating. There are external cameras on walkways, garage, and entrances that monitor 24/7.
Game room (in heated garage) is for Big Dipper guests only and you have access with the same smart lock code as for the front door.
EV charger (Supporting Tesla and other brands) is available as it’s located in the driveway designated for the rental.
The master bathroom has a 4’ deep jetted tub that’s considered a “hot tub” by Airbnb’s description parameters.

****CA will be doing rolling blackouts this summer. This unit has an automatic propane-powered generator that kicks on when the power goes out. You never have to worry when the area is without power!

Guests will have access to the backyard including the gazebo and game room. Please DO NOT light an open pit fire. NO smoking allowed on or inside the property.

We love dogs at Stargazer. We ask that you never leave your pet unattended, never allow them up on furniture, in beds/blankets, and please clean up after your dog.

There is NO smoking or vaping allowed anywhere on the property.

Since our property is in CA, we are prone to rolling blackouts. These blackouts effect power (we have a back up generator) and internet. We have no control over when these blackouts occur, and while they’re short in duration, they can be an inconvenience. Most guests who experience the blackouts understand it’s temporary and enjoy the peace and quiet of this amazing property; however, if you are one that needs to be connected 24/7 with zero interruptions than this may not be the property for you. Please consider this prior to booking as there are no refunds due to inconveniences.
Finally, please remember that this is a rural property that is shared with Mother Nature. You may or may not see wildlife that can include, but not limited too, bears, deer, foxes, skunks, opossum, squirrels, mice, spider , ants and mosquitoes. Please help up mitigate this risk or meeting wild life by not leaving food outside or in your car. Lock and secure all trash receptacles and ensure your pets are secure on leashes at all times.
We love Dogs at Big Dipper. All owners must disclose and agree to our pet rules. We have a 2 dog max. unless agreed upon with hosts. If we allow any additional dogs, there will be a $25 per dog per night fee charged.

Safety cameras are located at the main entrance and driveway areas to ensure guests have secured entry into the unit.

Guests are NOT permitted to tamper with or disable the Internet and security cameras that are located, disclosed, and in plain view on the property. The Internet, and subsequent wifi systems, control the HVAC, door locks, emergency generator, and other essential functions of the house and property. Tampering with any of the external cameras, router, Wi-Fi points, will result in the immediate termination of your reservation and you will be asked to leave the property immediately.
