About this property

Albaugh Ranch Guest House

Enjoy a taste of the country in a privately owned home nestled on the 400 acre Albaugh Ranch in the beautiful Fall River Valley. The Albaugh Ranch has been a part of the family for over a century and we are delighted to share its beauty with you. The ranch has operated as a cattle ranch as well as grown hay, wild rice, potatoes, strawberries, garlic, peppermint and berries.
With exquisite views, this is the perfect wedding venue! Lush green lawns and an arbor of maple, walnut and apple trees create an intimate setting, while a backdrop of barns, fields and mountains enhance the array of photographic opportunities, all in one location.
Our guest house offers four bedrooms, two and one half bathrooms, full kitchen and most amenities. Your family or small group (4-10) can enjoy the activities of the area while staying within the comforts of home. New central Heating and Air Conditioning has been installed. The large paver patio, complete with gas grill, is great for barbecues or social events. For those embracing nature, lounge on the lawn and take in the scenery. This working cattle ranch borders the Pit River and is home to fertile pastures, hay and wheat crops, and stocker and cattle pairs. Enduring four generations, this ranch exhibits a warm, familiar feeling of home.
The Albaugh Ranch is just a 10 minute drive from the Fall River Valley Golf Club. This championship 18-hole course has been rated 4.5 stars from 'Golf Digest' and is known for its excellent 'pace of play', large greens and wide fairways. Also nearby are the world class fly fishing streams, Hat Creek and Fall River. Fishing season starts the last Saturday of April and runs through November 15th.

This is my all-time favorite place to stay! The views from the house and the peaceful setting are 2nd to none. I would highly recommend. This was the perfect place for a group of golfers to be while not on the golf course!

Relaxation with beautiful views
We had a great time at the Albaugh Family Guest House. This was everything we needed for a nice, relaxing golf vacation. Plenty of space for our group of 6 golfers and could have easily accomodated a couple more. I especially loved enjoying my morning cup of coffee while admiring the views of the valley below.

Great location
We loved the view from the house. Green pasture and cows surrounded by hills and mountains. We also really enjoyed the two very friendly barn cats. The kitchen is well stocked. The house and furniture are dated and have seen better days. But everything worked. The owner, Elena, was very responsive.

Fishing and relaxing in McArthur
We four adults thoroughly enjoyed the Albaugh ranch house. The kitchen is thoroughly stocked with cooking supplies and equipment. The views from the ranch house are outstanding. Fishing on the Pit River at this time of year is fantastic and the house is centrally located for other outings such as McArthur Burney Falls Park. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing views of the cattle ranch and mountains. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed to cook- utensils, pots and pans and dish ware. The tube tv in the photos has been updated to a flat screen. The home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

Beautiful property close to great outdoor spots
We really enjoyed our stay here. Starting from having the morning coffee near the big windows in the living room and taking in the view of the mountains. Very picturesque setting. We also checked out Lassen National Park and Mt Shasta and the location is perfectly in the middle for both. The host was also very responsive. Overall, it was an amazing winter gateway.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The owner, Elena, was helpful and responsive to my questions. This quiet, peaceful property is a working cattle ranch in a beautiful, green valley. Because of the smoke from California fires, we were unable to enjoy the view of Mt. Lassen, however the views from the house on the hill are amazing. Just seeing the young calves play together in the field across the street was fun. The house itself easily sleeps a dozen, but because there were only 3 of us we had more than enough room to spread out. After the long drive to get there, the jacuzzi tub in the main bathroom relaxed my road-weary muscles. I would recommend this house for anyone who wishes to get away from it all, those with large families, perhaps a girlfriend getaway, or even a hand-crafter's retreat.

Incredible setting..photos do not do the property justice
Rented this house for a weekend get away to reunite with family after Covid quarantine. Had kids and grandkids there. This place was amazing and perfect for us. Incredible views from inside and outside the house. Every evening we sat under the trees, which are lit up with lights, and watched the sunset, beautiful lawn area. Outdoor chairs are provided. In addition they also had games for the kids, a porta crib for the baby, which we didnt expect. Met the owner of the property, Steve, who lives down the street. Very nice and gave us history of the home. We would definitely visit again.

Excellent staycation!
Our family LOVED our time at the ranch. The home was perfect - spacious, clean, comfortable, and with incredible views. We have recommended this space to so many friends and family already. Elena was an excellent host - easy to contact and close by - she even mailed back some items that we had accidentally left behind!
