About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

The Cottage - Winter Family Escape!

The Cottage at Gold Run is a recently renovated 3 BD/2.5 BA, perched on 1/4 mile of Gold Run Creek, with 10 acres of pristine forest and up to 300 Mbps of reliable fiber internet. King master suite w/ luxury shower bathroom, 2nd Queen bedroom, 3rd twin/full bunk bedroom, new guest tub/shower, & powder room. Two living rooms, one w/ autostart fireplace and the other w/ Queen sofa sleeper. Bring s`mores for nights at the gazebo firepit, and sip your AM coffee on the deck while the deer drink from the pond.

Do you need to get away? The Cabin and Cottage share 10 acres of wooded bliss. We are taking extra cleaning precautions and can provide plenty of fresh air while maintaining minimal contact with others. The Cottage at Gold Run is part of the 10 acres of Crossing at Gold Run and includes the Cabin at Gold Run that can be booked together. The entire property sits just 8 miles (less than 10 minutes) from Susanville and provides stunning views. You`ll adore this tranquil getaway so much you won`t want to leave. :-)

You will have the whole Cottage and attached decks to yourself. The parking, garage, and yard areas are community property with The Cabin next door (another short-term listing).

Vivint Alarm System: DO NOT TOUCH the alarm panel near the front door. It is not set for guest use. You have no way to disarm it, and the police/fire department will be dispatched if the alarm is set and triggered. You will be responsible for the $150 fine for any false alarms. NO Swimming in the pond.

Guests will be able to access hosts through the VRBO platform, text message, or cell phone during their stay.

Lassen County offers hunting, fishing, and incredible sightseeing opportunities. Gold Run Road ends, and the gates to the Plumas National Forest begin, where OHV use is encouraged. Numerous fire lookouts within 20 miles provide unparalleled views. World-famous Eagle Lake, Antelope Lake, and Lake Almanor are nearby. The Bizz Johnson Trail can be ridden from Mason Station to Susanville, 28 miles downhill (mostly).

Susanville is a small town with groceries, fast food, Walmart, and other basic stores.

Bring a flashlight if you plan to arrive after dark. We have outdoor lighting, but it`s in the forest, and it can be quite dark. ;-)

Please park in front of the garage and NOT on the grass or paver walkway. There are external cameras on walkways, garages, and fire pit areas.

We love dogs at The Crossing. We ask that you never leave your pet unattended and leashed when on the property, never allow them up on the furniture, and please clean up after your dog.

There is NO smoking or vaping allowed on the property or in the Cabin or Cottage.

Finally, since our cottage is in California, we are prone to rolling blackouts. These blackouts affect power and the internet. We have no control over when these blackouts occur, and while they’re brief, they can be inconvenient for some guests. Most guests who experience the blackouts understand it’s temporary and enjoy the peace of this amazing property; however, if you need to be connected 24/7 with zero interruptions, this may not be the property for you. Please consider this before booking.

*We have a generous cancellation policy, and while we realize that you may need to cancel, if you do so, we will withhold 3% to cover the fees we pay our credit card processors. Thank you for understanding.

We stayed at this cabin after exploring Lassen Volcanic National Park as part of our national parks road trip, and it was a great spot to relax after a day in nature. The location is very remote, which we loved, and the hosts provided excellent directions with visual markers that made finding it easy. Susanville is just a short drive away with plenty of dining and shopping options.We especially enjoyed the cute little water feature near the cabin—it made a peaceful babbling sound while we relaxed on the patio. The comfy egg chairs were a nice touch! The cabin itself feels modern yet woodsy, with plenty of natural light thanks to walk-out doors in two rooms and a skylight in the third.A couple of small notes: we couldn’t get the shooting arcade game to work, and you’ll walk through a garage and across a short walkway to reach the cabin. Neither was a big deal for us, but worth mentioning.Overall, a peaceful and comfortable stay in a beautiful, nature-filled setting.

Wedding Weekend

Amazing property located just outside the town limits. The cabin was spacious and had all the amenities of home. The property is well maintained and provides a nice area to walk around. We woke up to a herd of deer outside the back slider door.

Whimsical woodland getaway

We had a great time at this cabin in the woods! Such a beautiful location with lots to do for all ages. Everyone loved the views, exploring the grounds, and we all had a lot of fun in the game room! We will definitely come back next time we visit the area and hope for better weather so we can use the fire pit. Overall, the place had everything we needed and the house was a great fit for us!

Quiet oasis in the mountains

We LOVED this rental from the moment we crossed the private bridge. The sound of the streams, the comfy furniture inside and out, the remodeled bathrooms--everything was just what we wanted. Clear communication with the host too. Highly recommend!
