About this property

Country Cottage - Family- pet friendly Getaway!!!

Located near Lake Almanor in historic lumber town of Westwood, California - home of Babe and his Blue OX. and the beginning of the Bizz Johnson trail.

The Country Cottage has been a favorite family vacation destination for many years and we are now able to share it with others who love the great Northern California landscape.

Think of Grandma's Country cottage. for the ambiance of this home. Most of the homes in Westwood were built in the 30's and early 40's in the heyday of the Red River Lumber Company. Equipping it with modern tech and conveniences has been a labor of love and pleasure.


We are a fully and completely equipped home . Laundry room, full kitchen, large living room, TV's. DVD, movies and games
The home is in town on a large level fully fenced yard. Nearby is Mountain Meadows Reservoir, Lake Almanor, Feather River, and Lassen Volcanic National Park. Lakes, streams, creeks, and rivers abound here .

The lofty and majestic pines, the mountains, and the clear night skys are a treat to experience. The stars are seen as brighter up here. The environment is invigorating. Treat yourself and your family to a special area of California and explore this wonderland for your

The house is very quant. Lots of old trinkets and furniture that goes back to the 1950's. Big living room. The area around the house is quiet and is perfect for pets of any size. Its all gated so pets can roam. The house is old but charming. We had a nice stay.

The property was not clean
My 1.5 year old grandson got hand foot and mouth. The beds had crumbs in them, on bed cover looked like it had barf on it, the vacuum was broken so I brought my personal shark down. The house was not clean and now my grandson is sick.

About the host

Host profile image
This was our family vacation home and when my parents passed away we were already in the vacation rental business and wanted to share this special place with family friends and guests.

I have always thought of Westwood as a fishing dream destination as I have spent so many hours chasing the trout here.

Why they chose this property

A Town is Born

Here in the heart of the wilderness
Where wildlife roamed at will
Amid primeval forest
Where even time stood still,
Where rushing rivers downward dashed
Through meadows green with waving grass
Snowy peaks towered to the skies
Amid smiling lakes that watched closeby.
Where the trees talked to the stars at night
And the moon looked down and smiled.
Where the breeze whispered secrets
And the lakes extend for miles.

Into this place of towering pines
Where natures voise excelled all chimes
Came man with ax and saw and blade
And out of this land so fair and free
a town was born for you and me.

In the heart of the Sierras
You will find it nestled there
The little town of Westwood
with traditions quaint and rare.

As years go by and times holds sway
its houses may fall into decay,
It's people may leave for parts unknown
The years and streets may be overgrown
Even the breeze may seem to sigh
with memories of the days gone by.

But in our hearts and in our minds
there will always be a Westwood
There among the pines.

By Ethel Hurd (recorded in 1949)

What makes this property unique

The Country Cottage is a very comfortable home that welcomes you to really relax, explore our town and the surrounding areas
I have placed a booklet in the home letting you in on some of our in town events, places to eat, and little known areas like the Subway Lave Caves to have to see to believe.

Everything is provided here. Just bring your toothbrush and clothes and food you want to eat unless you want to eat at our local restaurants. Buffalo Chips ( PIzza +++)
