Recent Northern California vacation rental reviews

We saw a lot of Elks just in front of the house and the house is also very nice maintained. It has everything we need with spacious room and full kitchen. Highly recommended!

Beautiful home, beautiful property! Sunset with the fog rolling in over the hills with an absolutely tranquil view from the deck, surrounded by beautiful trees and plants was an unforgettable experience!

The place was clean, you feel that you are at home. The location is great! You can walk to Supermarkets, Starbucks, restaurants. All the beds were very comfortable. It’s a quiet place near trees.

Water lovers will love staying almost anywhere in NorCal, especially since we offer oceanfront, lakefront, and riverfront Northern California vacation rentals. One of the best places to stay for an outdoor adventure on the water is the world famous Lake Tahoe. Not only does the second largest lake in the state offer great fishing, boating, and kayaking experiences, but those who prefer to stay on land can enjoy fantastic hiking excursions in the summer, and world-class skiing in wintertime.

We’re also huge fans of the forests and mountains that cover the Sierra Nevada area, offering plenty to savor for lovers of the outdoors. Home to Mammoth Lakes and Yosemite, among other famous locations, visitors to the region can enjoy one of our many cabin rentals surrounded by nature.
