"Excellent VRBO listing. Met up with an old pal and this place was perfect. Lakeview was cowboy before Yellowstone and this listing has the vibe of the ranch town and the great country around it. My friend and I used to run around here in the 1980's and the friendly nature of Lakeview hasn't changed. Great place to get a dose of the true American west."

"TL;DR Skies were dark. This place was great. Will be coming back again. My wife and I were looking for a place to get away and get under some dark skies for astrophotography. Bidwell Canyon Farm provided everything we needed and more. Our host provided all of the details we needed ahead of time. This was great since cell signal is spotty in that region. When we arrived, Angie the Airstream was set up to make our stay comfortable. Cell service may have been weak but WiFi was strong. About 50 feet away from the Airstream is a complete RV power panel. With the NEMA 14-50 adapter and Tesla mobile charger our “tank” was full every morning ready for exploring if we wanted to do so. No range anxiety. The ambassadors of the farm are two sweet dogs Penny and Luca. Our host offered to keep them up by the house, but we declined. We loved that they would check in with us from time to time as if to make sure all our needs are being met. At night the skies were dark and clear. (Bortle 2 for us space nerds) It was a new moon and I was picking up zodiacal light. I could see Andromeda Galaxy with my bare eyes. I had my 100ft extension running from the Airstream’s external power out to my astrophotography rig. Very handy! Didn’t have to lug around the lithium battery pack. As an aside, the farm produce was fresh and delicious! Brian is an excellent host and we want to thank him and his family for sharing their farm with us. It was the highlight of our trip. "
