Mill Creek, California
Vacation house for rent located in the heart of Northern California 10 miles west of Chester / Lake Almanor on Highway 36 (about 60 miles from Red Bluff, CA which is off of Interstate 5).
This scenic year-round highway is the dividing line of the Cascade and Sierra Nevada mountain ranges. The house is about three hours from Sacramento - 4 hours from the S.F.

The house has two bedrooms (1 queen bed, 2 twin beds), 2 bathrooms, living room, and a fully equipped kitchen. It has a small deck in the back overlooking a pond (that sometimes has wild ducks on it).
You have a nice view of a meadow and the mountains from the back. You may even have deer visiting the creek in the evenings in the back meadow!! The night sky is incredible for stargazers!!

* Rates starting at $105.00 per night for up to two guests, $115.00 per night for up to 4 guests.
It was nice stay. The property has a pond and little creek running through the green field with flowers. It was pleasant to have dinner at the patio overlooking the creek. Well equipped kitchen, washer/dryer available for guests. We arrived late, around 6 pm, but the house was not ready. The host apologized and suggested few restaurants at Chester. We had to wait for another 1,5 hr while the place will be ready. The bathtub has drainage problem. Windows have a lot of spider webs and dead flies. Very convenient if you visiting Lassen park.
It was hard to find to start. Wifi didn't work, toilet with poop hadn't been flushed, bathtub had black hair around the drain and spiders, black ants in the kitchen. For what I paid, I certainly expected this to be much better. Would not reccomend.
Excellent location for a vacation house, if you want to explore the Lassen Park and Lake Almanor area.
We talked to the Nice owner, he is very respectful and he made everything so convenient
I went with my family and we all loved staying at this house. It was conveniently located, with beautiful surroundings, great views, well equipped and very comfortable. I would love to stay there again and explore more of Lassen Park next time.
The house is a nice size for a family of 4 and is close to the Lassen park. The owner is very nice and helpful and even called me before I came to ensure that I could find it. The place could be a bit cleaner (there were still used coffee grounds in machine and you really don't want to look down the back of the couch), but overall we were very happy.
This is a 2-bedtime 2–bath house with living room, kitchen, and laundry, located in a calm relaxing country site, with a mountain as the backdrop. It’s far more homey than a hotel. We had a nice stay there. The facility is clean. We just would like to confirm that the bedsheets and pillow cases are freshly washed and changed, since there is no way to know. It has WiFi signal, but the reception was so weak that we couldn’t got on to even check the outside temperature.
Good experience. Place had what we needed for a great weekend.
Due to limited availability in the area, this residence was booked. The house was filthy. I had to ask the home owner to mop and vacuum. (and still not done successfully) One shower was completely clogged with hair and could not be used. The house smelled like a bug bomb when entering and by the end of the first day, large ants were everywhere in the kitchen.
Peaceful
The place is clean and cozy and the property manager was attentive and available (not that we needed much). It has all the basics and we had no problems settling in. There's a nice covered deck area around back which is great for coffee and bird watching in the AM. It's 20 mins to Lassen and 10 mins to Chester which is the closest town with amenities like gas and groceries. Definitely recommend.
I would stay here again!!!
We enjoyed our time at this property. It was just as described, and had everything we needed. It was nice having room to spread out and it was a beautiful area. A great place to stay while visiting Lassen National Park.
The house amidst forested mountains is the ideal place to escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The sound of a little creek running by is peaceful and soothing. It is close to the South West Entrance of Lassen National Park, Warner Valley, and Lake Almanor. The place is clean and safe, and you the owner is very accommodating. Would come to stay anytime!
Perfect spot for a winter trip to Lassen. There were just two of us, but it could have easily fit 6 people.
We rented this place to go snowshoeing for the weekend at Lassen National Park during February. The property was ok, it’s behind the owners home and a closed down hotel. It wasn’t terribly dirty but definitely needed some deeper cleaning. Not enough space heaters and it got real cold during the night. The kitchen was not stalked with basic cooking things, luckily we came prepared. I message the owner for a 1hr late check out but never got a response. I wouldn’t mind staying again, even though i wish we felt free to explore the property since it’s in a beautiful forest.
It was perfect for us and pretty much what we were looking for/what we expected. We travelled with two young children and appreciated Walter's flexibility in meeting our needs/requests. His communication was excellent and he was really helpful in answering some of the questions we had before we arrived! The cottage could be a tad bit cleaner (eg, cobwebs as well as spots here and there) but really, nothing major to complain about as the essentials were all there. Our family enjoyed our stay here!
