Classic winter retreat for an extended family or multiple families. Three common areas make it easy to spread out - read a book in the living room by the propane fireplace, play games in the dining area or play upstairs in the lounging room with mini-pool and a closet full of kids costumes. Take a snowshoe hike or go sledding across the street. A true escape to focus on family and friends without TV or wi-fi.
Mill Creek is a small community of former US Forest Service cabins only 15 minutes from the entrance to Lassen National Park.

This is our family cabin that we happen to rent out when we aren’t here. It is filled with games, puzzles, books, snow clothes, snow shoes, extra food, drinks and a full medicine cabinet. Our kitchen is completely stocked. We leave baking and cooking supplies and ingredients here for ourselves, but feel free to use what you need. The fridge and freezer are yours to use. You can also leave an ice chest outside the sliding glass doors in the kitchen for extra space.

There are four sleeping areas and bedding is provided. Downstairs there is a master bedroom with attached bathroom with bathtub & shower, one bedroom upstairs with queen bed and a door, the other two bedrooms upstairs are loft style and do not have doors. One loft area has a queen and two full size beds. The other includes two twins that can be pushed together for a couple. There is an additional bathroom with a bathtub/shower off the living room.

There is a washer and dryer for your use. There is a bluetooth speaker in the dining room to play music off your cell phone.

There is a washer and dryer for your use.

Occasionally during a storm, the electricity can go out. We now have a propane generator that can run the fireplace for heat if this happens.

If there is snow on the ground, we recommend you arrive while it is still light out. You will need to park across the street and carry your belongings to the cabin which is approximately 30 yards off the street.

The nearest gas is in Chester, 25 minutes away. We recommend you have plenty of gas before you leave Chico or Red Bluff to head up the mountain.

There is limited cell phone reception in this area. AT&T and Verizon LTE are usually, but not always, good from this location. There is a phone in the bedroom that uses AT&T cell. Feel free to use it for domestic calls.

Staying in a cabin like this can be a little extra work at times, but is worth the effort!

This cabin was amazing! Met our expectations. The family got to enjoy the snow all around the cabin and across the street. The cabin came with more amenities like snow shoes, gloves and snow pants and bibs! We will definitely looking to book in the future but for a longer persons of time.

Loved the place! would've given 5 stars if I didn't have to make my own way to the house on knee deep snow. But the house has everything as described and as in pictures.

Response:Sorry that we didn't get a path cleared for you. The last storm dumped a lot of snow! I'm glad you enjoyed it once you made it inside.

We stayed in the cabin with our kids, dogs, and extended family over Thanksgiving. Everyone had a great time gathered around the fireplace and playing games. The surrounding woods just outside of Lassen park were gorgeous. Though there wasn’t yet snow at the cabin, we found snow for the kids the play in just a short drive up the mountain into Lassen park. It was nice to be without a TV for a few days and take walks outside with nothing but the sound of the wind in the pines. Everyone slept comfortably and the kitchen was stocked with enough pots and dishes for the Thanksgiving meal. There were plenty of board games and enough space for everyone to spread out. We appreciate David and his family for sharing their cabin with us!

Had a big group of guys spending the weekend. There were plenty of places for us to hangout, the kitchen accomodated cooking for a big group, and we were close by amazing hikes in the area. Everyone had a great time and one of us was even thinking about booking again. Thanks David!

Wonderful stay at this cute cabin. This was right in the middle of the park and we could watch stars directly from the cabin. The house was great and had all the amenities required. David was communicative and responsive and his instructions made our stay easier.

Nice cabin that is just outside of Mt Lassen National Park. The cabin is rustic so scale your expectations accordingly. There is wifi but it has limited bandwidth, enough to find things to do in the area. There is also a large fire pit in the back that was a great place to hang out with family in the evening.
