The perfect weekend getaway!

My husband and I couldn’t be happier with this hidden gem. We arrived and were met with welcoming hosts, well stocked amenities (including some cookies, local baked English muffins and beverages) and it was the perfect space for two plus our ‘pre-approved’ fur baby. Everything was clean, well organized and thoughtful. The bed was super comfortable. It rained over the weekend or we would’ve sit and had our morning coffee on the deck and perhaps hit the pool or hot tub. We will definitely book again!

Love this place

This was our 2nd time staying in this cottage. It is so incredibly cute and cozy. It is spacious and well appointed, and Darcy and Steve are super friendly hosts. The hot tub is top-notch. The doggies, if you get to meet them, are very sweet. The location is also very convenient to downtown and campus. The beauty of Bidwell Park is just a short drive.

Charming, cozy, and convenient!

We loved staying with Darcy! The cottage was a great size for two people. We enjoyed cooking meals, watching cable TV, and soaking in the hot tub. Charlie and Mem were sweethearts and greeted us only after we made an appearance. Downtown was an easy walk. We ran into Darcy during check-in, and she offered us a tour which we took: having a walk through with the amenities and space was so helpful. We talked about staying here again. 10/10.

Nice place stocked with food

Cute place. They provide a very nice stash of snacks and basic breakfast food, which is above and beyond what you get at most rentals. Close to campus but a rural street. It is nice they let us bring our dog along. Note: Their dogs are not friendly to other dogs and barked at ours, however, sharing the yard just required some coordination.

It was perfect! It was close to The university. Very private on a quiet street. The house itself was beautiful. The owner made sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. Our son will be in school for another three years and this is where we will stay in the future when we visit.

Lovely cottage and gracious hosts

Lovely cottage, exactly as described. Clean, well appointed, everything you need for a long or short stay. So charming, beautifully decorated, so homey and comfortable! Our stay happened to be during a long rain, so we didn't get to walk around the area, but the property is well located, and any other time, I know we would have loved walking along the creek. Wrong time of year for a swim and too busy with our visit's purpose to use the hot tub. But we'll enjoy it all next time we stay. And we absolutely will! Such gracious hosts. As friendly and kind as we'd been guests in their home. I just can't be effusive enough with praise for Darcy & Steve's hospitality!

A wonderful retreat with easy access to CSU and downtown, filled with thoughtful amenities.

Our 4-night stay at Darcy and Steve's Cottage by the Creek was comfortable, convenient and relaxing. The cottage is spacious yet cozy and located close to both the Chico State campus and downtown shops and businesses. Darcy and Steve were gracious hosts and have created what we referred to as a Shangri-La, filed with flowering plants, a babbling brook, multiple spots to rest and retreat in their beautiful yard, and a fully equipped cottage with an assortment of thoughtful touches and amenities above and beyond what one normally expects in a typical VRBO.

A real gem

Cottage by the creek is a quirky little place with an eclectic interior and exterior. Despite being close to campus housing, it was very quiet. Everything that could possibly be provided was, including food in the fridge and snacks. Darcy and her "weiner dogs" could not have been more friendly. We had a wonderful stay.

Beautiful and accommodating little spot by the creek!

Stayed in Chico for our annual poker game with friends. This was the perfect spot. Private entrance, beautiful yard, near downtown. It was right near a nice little creek. The house was really cozy, and they had everything for us. Even eggs in the fridge, and English muffins. They provided plenty of snacks and I was very grateful. The yard was exceptional. It felt very private and cozy. The hosts were really nice and laid back. Thank you so much for everything. Would highly recommend.
