Chalet vacation rentals in Northern California

Four of us (and a dog) stayed at this location for a ski trip and it was great. It was relatively close to the lodges, everything inside was clean and as expected, and the pathways to the parking behind the unit was well maintained (although this year the snow isn't crazy like it was in the past two years). We did hear a lot of footsteps from the unit upstairs but that wasn't an issue for us. The Internet was stable, and most of the lights were dimmable and it was so pleasant to be able to adjust the brightness as needed.

Clean, organized, and full of everything you'd need. The owner clearly put a lot of work into the space and it shows. Many Airbnbs are bare-bones but this one is not. So many labels and instructions!

The house was really great. Lovely, peaceful neighborhood with a trail to hike at the end of the cul de sac. Nice balcony to sit on and have your morning cup of coffee and a great big fenced in yard for our dogs to run around in while we played cards on the picnic table. Highly recommend this place for a peaceful retreat.

An amazing home with all needed to just relax and enjoy!!

Amazing cabin to stay at. Great location and great view of the mountain. Will recommend!

The house is a beautiful, spacious, and a perfect get away in Mt.Shasta. Everything needed for cooking, inside and outside. The bedrooms were nicely decorated and gave us all space to sleep. The host was very responsive and helpful when contacted. I would recommend this house to travelers.

We stayed for a week in June, and really appreciated the proximity to Yosemite as well as what felt like extreme privacy in the woods. The home is spacious and yet very homey, all the amenities and blankets and fans—we found everything we needed. Jeffrey was responsive to all of our questions, almost instantly. He reached out months prior to let us know Yosemite was implementing their timed entry system. Wonderful stay!

We had a fantastic stay—just one night, but it was perfect. The location is unbeatable, right on the lake with beautiful views. Communication was clear and timely, and everything was exactly as described. Would absolutely stay again!

Rob’s place was a cozy comfortable place for our family of 5 to get some R&R.

We went with a friend's family and there were 4 kids aged 1,3,4 and 5. The jungle gym was an instant hit. The backyard was gorgeous and plenty of snow to play with for the kids without having to drive or go anywhere. Warm home , warm host , basic common sense rules and simple instructions. Good location just a 4-5 mins drive to King's beach. Had a great time - couldn't ask for more.

We brought our family from England and it was the most amazing time! The house is beautiful - the views are incredible and are the focal point of the house. The kitchen, bedrooms, and all of the amenities the house has to offer just make it that much better! We will definitely be back!

Molly’s place was the perfect long weekend getaway for our family of 8. Location was perfect, close to Heavenly and the downtown area. The place was spacious, has great communal areas for relaxing, and large kitchen area with updated appliances. Only thing missing was a hot tub after a long day of skiing! Molly is an excellent host and was responsive to all of our requests/questions. We greatly enjoyed her house and would stay here again!

Rebecca was GREAT! We absolutely loved and enjoyed our stay. Our first vacation with our kiddos and we couldn’t have asked for a better host. Rebecca was very responsive and such a friendly host. We will definitely be back in the future.

We (a group of 4 families) stayed at Monique’s chalet for 2 nights and really enjoyed our stay. Our kids liked the pool table, air hockey table and arcade games, and we loved the outdoor space and beautiful views. Monique was very responsive via text. The location was excellent, close to Big Trees SP. Would stay again!

very quiet and peaceful, loved the surroundings and fresh mountain air. The hot tub was great

It’s the little things… Spruce Haus is a great house with all the usual, necessary amenities. But it was truly the little things of the house that made this weekend trip great! Even though it was the end of the June, it snowed! So it was awesome that there’s a wood-stove-burning style fireplace, and we were able to enjoy the snow flurries, warm and cozy! Also, we love to cook so it was nice that the knives were sharp, there were basic spices, and there was plenty of cookware. The bathrooms were surprisingly well stocked including super soft toilet paper. It was also easy for us to drive to Truckee and to Tahoe City. Both places were full of tourists, but we were tourists too! We had fun window shopping and eating lunch by Lake Tahoe.

This was the perfect place for our family to spend a few days in the mountains. Jackiehas thought of everything! The kitchen was completely stocked, there was a gas grill with utensils, a fire pit, a beautiful porch, games, puzzles, toys, and best of all everything was very clean. This was the best location close to Big Trees and several lakes. I only hope to stay here again someday! Thanks, Jackie

The W House was a very nice relaxing home. Jen was an amazing host and always kept in touch. This place has lots of room for a family of 11 to spread out and have their own privacy and was fully stocked. The view and peacefulness was incredible. Hot tub was a huge plus as well as the deck and Blackstone Flat Grill which we used for all of our cooking. Nothing like cooking bacon and eggs outside in the early morning surrounded by redwoods. We went fishing, dirt biking and laid out by the nearby lake. S’mores night around the fire pit was a hit! Main Street Murphys for some wine tasting and ice cream made it for a fun and relaxing time for the whole family. We will definitely be back!

We had such a great stay! Quiet neighborhood, clear instructions for everything, super clean, everything was labeled —-just an absolute breeze! This is a nice house for anyone looking for the quiet of the forest. Rita and Nathan give local recs for everything. We went to Murphys for meals and wine tasting and visited the local parks and state park to get some fresh air. Kitchen was so well equipped for all our meals. If you have little ones with you, this place is a godsend. They had toys, pack and play, a crib, childproof cabinets, child proof plugs, childproof furniture—it made our lives a little easier not having to chase after the kid constantly. The fireplace is non-operational and they currently don’t have a washer dryer. Both would have been nice but we were only there a short time. And Rita and Nathan said they’re in the process of renovating so that could change by the time you book. They were honestly the most helpful hosts and so responsive. Wonderful stay!

I was so happy that this place popped up as I was looking for a secluded, quiet and cute place just to take a break from parenting and people/the city in general! Oh and for my birthday weekend! It was even better in person versus the photos, beautiful view and calm surroundings. Everything that was needed or even could potentially be needed was already in the house! It was also nice that a good number of food places are about 10 minutes away. I stopped at a drive thru to get dinner for my first night before checking in! I also brought my little dog with me and she enjoyed everything about it too, especially watching the ducks lol. I would totally stay here again and have already recommended it to others. Worth every penny!

This is a spacious cabin in a beautiful spot. We loved being surrounded by snow. It did take 24 hours to warm up though the loft was always very warm. The beds were super comfy - they even had flannels sheets. Lots of room for everyone.

lovely place to get away from your regular daily routine. peaceful and friendly neighbors. Host was quick with responses for questions. very friendly and flexible. loved our stay. Want to return for another trip soon.
