Better than advertised
Many homes don't quite meet expectations as advertised on VRBO. This home was not one of them. Upon arrival and throughout our stay, the Home was so much better than our expectations. The deck over the river is so serene and there is plenty of space to lounge including a nice fire pit to sit around. Despite neighbors on both sides of the house, the house is very private. Inside the house was roomy and clean. We thoroughly enjoyed all the amenities including the pool table, corn hole, chess board and big screen TV to watch football and BBQ. The kitchen and large bedrooms were great too. We highly recommend the house. Thank you Debbie for the multiple emails inquiring to confirm everything was as it should be.

We couldn’t of asked for a better experience!
This home was PERFECT for a family vacation with 7 adults. The house is beautifully maintained, has spacious rooms and a truly beautiful deck and view, and is well-stocked with virtually every creature comfort one could want on vacation. My family had fun creating a dinner experience every night and we found all we needed in the well-stocked kitchen. Dinner out on the deck was sensational, with the "music" of the rushing river below to serenade us. The house was spacious and made it easy to tuck away for individual quiet moments now and then. We really enjoyed the home's amenities, like kayaking and ping pong. Debbie and Dave were particularly gracious hosts, accommodating some special needs we requested. They were also fabulous communicators, enthusiastically sharing information on the area's best spots. Check in and check out were as easy as it gets. No fuss, no hassle. My family and I have been so looking forward to this vacation together. (We live hundreds of miles from one another, so time together is fleeting.) This home was the perfect place for us. Thanks again, Debbie and Dave. It was awesome.

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.

Amazing Getaway
This home has everything you would want or need in a home for a vacation rental. The home is in great shape and you can tell the owners take pride in their home from how clean everything is and all the amenities they provide. My husband and I and our 3 grown sons took full advantage of the pool table/ping pong, karaoke, played poker and sat on the deck looking at the gorgeous view and listening to the river. The hosts are amazing and we were lucky enough to get to meet them and chat a bit. They are by far the best hosts we have ever had. Debbie even reached out during our stay (this has never happened before) to see if everything was ok and if there was anything we needed. It was such a wonderful 60th bday celebration for my husband and our family. We had lots of laughs and made many awesome memories. We did lots of fly fishing, played disc golf and enjoyed the outdoors which is why we picked Lake Almanor. You will definitely not regret staying at this lovely home. Can't wait to go back some day. Thanks Debbie & David!

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!!

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.

Wonderful! Quiet Cabin in the woods by a river
We had a quiet stay in the cabin by the river. The river canceled out any other noises (which were minimal) and we found the place very calming and quiet. The kitchen has everything you could possibly need, and the living room is large with a great view. The host was very accommodating and made the whole process exceedingly easy on us. The cabin is not overly staged and feels very home-y. Highly recommend for a quiet spot. My only suggestion is that if you bring small children, you will need to keep an eye on them as there is a steep hill leading to the water.

Beautiful and relaxing setting
The house was very clean and well organized. We were in Lake Almanor for my niece's wedding that was less than 3 miles away. We had 8 people actually staying in the house that included a 10-month-old to my 87-year-old mother. We had plenty of room to spread out. My favorite was the porch swing on the deck that overlooked the river. The house was also large enough to have a BBQ and S'mores and game night with extended family. The sounds of the river were very relaxing.

Great Fishing Cabin
Pros: Great location for fishing enthusiasts. Great communication from owner. Fun house w lots of entertainment features like a pool table, ping pong table (not sure where to play it), board games, karaoke, electric piano. Cons: Very strict house rules. Multiple copies posted around the house. Owner asks for renters to take garbage out when checking out, as well as clean dishes (what does the $200 cleaning fee include?) The thermostat is password protected, and is not provided to the renter, so no way to adjust it.

Wedding Weekend
We were very impressed with this house, the decor is very tasteful with a flair of ‘fun.’ The house was stocked with beautiful dishes, wine glasses, wonderful selection of spices, pots and pans and even sharp knives and utensils. The beds were WONDERFUL and linens smelled heavenly. All the bathrooms were spotless and had thoughtful items on the counter such as Qtips. The deck had a spectacular view of the river with plenty of patio furniture and a swing!! Family hiked down to the river and back and said it was gorgeous. We didn’t have a chance to play billiard or ping pong but we were tickled it was available. Our family ages ranged from 1 year old to 88 years old and could not have been more pleased. Family dinners and gatherings were super comfortable and enjoyable. And another positive plus was no stairs entering the house. The host and house cleaner were both a delight to work with. We look forward to our next stay. My family is already asking me to set a date. :)

This is a beautiful property with a wonderful view of the river. The house was fantastic for our family, and we enjoyed the deck, playing games, and relaxing. We brought our boat, and it was a short drive to launch the boat. My elderly parents loved the accommodations as well, and it was great that there was a step-in shower on the main floor. Debbie is a great host- was pleasant to work with and is a great communicator. We would absolutely stay at this property again! Lake Almanor did not disappoint, and we are hopeful to return in the future!
