About this property

BIDWELL PARK BUNGALOW

Located in the heart of Chico, one block from beautiful Bidwell Park and a short walk to downtown, this charming, newly-renovated bungalow offers everything you need for a relaxing and fun-filled getaway. Whether you're sipping coffee on the front porch or trying your hand at bocce ball in the backyard under the twinkle lights, this sweet, completely redone 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom home provides a clean and comfortable place for you to enjoy all that Chico has to offer. Be sure to check out the legendary jukebox from Duffy's Bar in downtown Chico, given to us as a wedding present! Grab the beach chairs and head to One-Mile, the local swimming park just a couple of blocks away. Or hop on a beach cruiser bike and take a ride through tree-lined streets, just a few blocks to the heart of downtown Chico. Plenty of street parking directly in front of the house. PLEASE CHECK THE NUMBER OF TRAVELERS BOX WHEN MAKING YOUR BOOKING TO INDICATE IF YOU ARE BRINGING A PET. Additional $25 pet cleaning fee will be applied. With thoughtful amenities and cozy details, you’ll feel right at home here!

Great for a quick weekend trip. Kids loved the enclosed yard and bocce ball. It was a little loud with road noise but other than that a great place. And the jukebox was awesome.

This place was so quaint and cozy! It provided the perfect home base for myself, my husband and both my parents! We were in the city from out of state, and the house was so close to the venue and downtown! The recommendations provided for local eats were spot on; we enjoyed two meals out that were fantastic! Although on a busy street, the house was quiet and the backyard provided a space that felt private and spacious! The access to the bikes was a nice surprise, and we had a blast with the bocce ball court! I would come back in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anyone that finds themselves in the area!

The host was very generous to give us permission to bring 2 dogs. We really appreciated that, but there wound up being a lose fence post and our dogs got out of the yard and one of them almost got hit by a car because this house is on a busy street. The host wasn’t able to come out and fix it, so we fixed it ourselves. Other than that, everything was great.

Charming bungalow, perfect for our family. A plus to be able to bring our dog. Great location and amenities. Had a great weekend visiting our sons who are at Chico State. We all loved being able to hang out, play bocce, and enjoy home cooked meals. Will definitely come back!

Beautiful close to downtown, and Chico State. We were very impressed with “more than” essentials in the kitchen. We bbq-ed on the back patio 2 nights. The Jukebox was so fun to use. We would stay here again!

Beautifully maintained property, very convenient for everything. We were moving our child into Chico State dorms so didn't have much time to enjoy the amenities outside (plus it was HOT!), but the couch was perfect for the relaxation we needed! Bed was very comfortable and we just generally had a really great stay! Hope to come back at some point!
