About This Home

Before you see the cabin, you hear the river. Before you unpack your bags, you feel the pace of life begin to slow. For generations, this stretch of the Feather River has been a place where summer days linger, conversations continue long after sunset & the distractions of everyday life quietly give way to the rhythm of moving water & mountain air. A seasonal creek winds through the property beneath a canopy of aspens, expansive grassy lawns reach toward the river & uninterrupted views across the Feather River to a natural landscape create a setting that feels remarkably unchanged by time. Set on 3.33 usable riverfront acres, this furnished 5 bed/4 bath cabin invites a slower pace where fishing trips become traditions, holiday weekends become annual traditions & quiet mornings overlooking the water are remembered long after the journey home. Built in 1942, it remains beautifully authentic, preserving the original character that gives classic mountain cabins their enduring appeal while offering spaces designed for gathering, relaxing, and reconnecting. Inside, the cabin reflects the warmth & character that have made it a cherished retreat through the years. The main level features a welcoming living room centered around a fireplace, a dining room, a kitchen, a sunroom, one bedroom & full bathroom & spacious billiards room. Upstairs, 2 separate bedroom wings provide comfort & privacy. One wing features a generous primary suite with an en suite bathroom, guest bedroom & full bath. The opposite wing includes 2 guest bedrooms & full bathroom, making the home equally comfortable for intimate weekends or extended stays. A detached 2-car garage provides storage for everything needed for life on the river. Outside, the property becomes an extension of the home itself. A riverside stone patio offers the perfect place to relax while watching the Feather River drift by. Spend the day casting a line from your own stretch of river, floating downstream on an inner tube or raft, playing horseshoes and shuffleboard on the lawn, strolling into town for an ice cream or dinner, or enjoying a leisurely bike ride through Chester. Rather than changing hands on the open market, this cabin has quietly passed between friends through the years. Now available for public purchase for the first time, it offers an opportunity to continue a story that began generations ago, because some places are measured in square feet, while others are measured in the memories they hold.
