This is an adorable private carriage house, above the detached garage alongside an iconic and historic Chico home built in 1938 for the late Senator Johnson. The property is over an acre and faces the beautiful Bidwell Park.

The property sits in an ideal location for a Chico experience, with direct front access to Bidwell Park trails for walking, running, biking, hiking, swimming, site seeing, golf and lovely downtown shopping, dining and nightlife.

The pool is typically open mid May through September, and is open to guests (not visitors of guests).

    Great location, close to downtown and Chico State. Clean, quiet, and comfortable studio suite with full bath and small kitchen. Exactly what we needed. Enjoyed it very much!!! Owners are friendly but not intrusive. Hope to stay here again in the future!

    This little apartment was perfect for a getaway from the city for a long weekend. We spent hours in the incredible pool and garden spaces. It was easy to get downtown to all the places of interest. We had all we needed. Thanks!

    We were in Chico on a nostalgic tour. Everything about this place is just beautiful. The grounds are gorgeous and quiet. The beds are comfy and the house has everything one could need. Super close to the park and downtown as well. Perfect weekend.

    Relatives visiting from out of town enjoyed their stay at the carriage house. And the owners were very helpful when I accidentally booked the wrong dates. Would definitely book here again.

    The cottage above the garage is quite comfortable. The beds are quite good. The covered poolside tables were excellent and the greenery of the yard made you forget you were in a subdivision. The Wi-Fi was not very good (it didn’t show up on my iPhone) and the house photo is a bit misleading I did enjoy the stay and would recommend it for those looking to simply disconnect in a wonderful setting

    The vintage charm of the carriage house coupled with a fresh modern update was perfect. The kitchen is small but well-equipped; the bathroom was so fresh and clean. The bedroom area is huge with 2 beds, a sofa and coffee table, and TV. The large windows let in lots of natural light. There was an ample walk-in closet for storage. Mike happened to be working in the outdoor garden area when we arrived. He was so friendly and welcoming and the gardens are magnificent. The home sits across the street from lower Bidwell Park - perfect to take a walk. Downtown and other areas of Chico are just a few minutes away. Fantastic place - definitely would book again.

    The Carriage House was the perfect place to stay and enjoy a weekend of exploring Chico. The house is cozy and adorable, especially the kitchen, and had everything we needed. We enjoyed walking in Boswell Park and found many wonderful things at the Farmer’s Market. Touring the Bidwell Mansion was also a highlight. Overall it was an excellent adventure
