The Bidwell House B&B Inn

Your perfect basecamp in charming old town Chester, centraly located to Lake Almanor and Lassen Volcanic NP.

Twelve distinctly different guest rooms, gourmet breakfast prepared to order by our chef, the swing on the porch, the unusual collection of antiques and attention to little details are all for the comfort of our guests.

Whether you are staying with us while visiting the Lassen Volcanic National Park, Lake Almanor, or simply for a little getaway; we welcome you to enjoy our gardens and the porch with company, a beautiful lake, and mountain views, and the distant foraging of Canada geese.

No matter which one of our twelve bedrooms you choose, The Bidwell House is rated 3-diamonds by AAA to ensure your comfort.

Our Inn is also recommended by Frommer’s Guide, Northern California Best Places guidebook, Lonely Planet guidebook; and a proud recipient of many consecutive Tripadvisor “Awards of Excellence”.
