A great cabin in a perfect location to explore Lassen National Park. It had all the amenities needed for a comfortable vacation. We highly recommend the cabin.

Perfect cabin for visit to the lake with family. The cabin is well laid out and felt quite spacious especially because of all the spots to sit out on the deck. Well equipped with everything needed to prepare meals. Easy check in and host friendly was quick to respond with any questions. There is a washer and dryer which was not noted on the reservation details.

Loved this charming cabin-like house with a large deck. The house was well stocked for cooking and serving. The deck and furniture were welcoming for conversation and relaxation. Wooden ceilings provided a more woodsy appeal. The triple switchback tight and steep driveway was pretty fun if you have a 4WD and wanted a challenge. I found it fitting and fun - a skillful challenge, but I'd guess most folks would be mortified. If you have 4WD, I'd engage and consider backing up the whole way. If you don't, I might suggest parking below in a pull out and walking up. The driveway wasn't marked well and on a turn of Highway 147. GoogleMaps didn't help at all. If you turn on Indian Hills Road just to the south, which looks like an option, the folks that live along the private drive might get VERY upset. We had an interesting person yelling at us for quite the time for a simple mistake. Overall, everything was great... and there were unexpected memorable additions.
