Wonderful location on the river and very good accommodations. The host was very responsive and most helpful.If you plan on booking, take note that the unit has the funkiest thermostat where you gently slide your finger up/down along the right side to adjust the temp. Tap once and slide to change the mode.

The house provided a location on the river that had a beautiful view from the home. An easy walk down the back stairs to the dock provided an opportunity to make some casts to the beautiful Rainbow Trout rising in the river. The inside of the home had been remodeled and was very clean. The three bedrooms and pullout couches provided plenty of sleeping space.

Thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful and detailed review!

It means a lot to know the home supported both comfort and memorable moments. We’d love to welcome you back for another riverside stay anytime!

It was the view that sold us. Having our morning breakfast looking over the river was perfect. The kids had plenty of space to run around in. The balcony was gated so no worries about the kids going down to the river. Would stay again!

We enjoyed our river stay. The views from entire back of the house and deck were amazing. There was an incredible storm during our stay.

Host profile image

Hi, I'm Christie! I have been managing vacation rentals since 2017 and it is absolutely a passion of mine! I have called Redding, CA home for over 20 years and I love this part of California. I'm a wife and a mother of 3 beautiful girls. Hosting and helping people is truly what I love to do. If you have any questions about Redding, the area, or vacation rentals please don't hesitate to send me a message. I'd Love to hear from you!

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood because it captures the peaceful beauty of the Sacramento River while keeping everything conveniently close! Riverside Drive offers that perfect mix — calm mornings with river views, local wildlife, and beautiful sunsets — all just minutes from Redding, shopping, and outdoor adventures.

It’s a friendly, quiet area where guests can unwind, yet it’s close enough to enjoy dining, fishing, and day trips to Whiskeytown Lake or Lassen Volcanic Park. We love how this neighborhood feels like a hidden riverside retreat — relaxing, scenic, and perfectly positioned for both rest and exploration. 🌿🏞️

What makes this property unique

Lily’s River Retreat offers a one-of-a-kind stay directly on the Sacramento River, where every window frames peaceful water views and golden light. The home was designed for connection — with multiple riverfront living spaces, cozy indoor comforts, and a spacious deck perfect for grilling, gathering, or simply watching the river drift by.

What makes it truly special is its flow: there’s an easy rhythm here between comfort and nature. You can sip morning coffee while spotting egrets on the water, enjoy dinner under glowing string lights, or launch straight from your private dock for a day of fishing or floating.

It’s a place where time slows down, memories linger, and guests feel both grounded and inspired by the beauty of the river.
