Valparaiso | A West Redding Hilltop Estate

Escape to a stunning hilltop estate with sweeping mountain views, minutes from Whiskeytown Lake, Sacramento River trails, and downtown Redding. This 3-bedroom home sleeps 8 with a pool table loft, full home gym, outdoor kitchen with built-in BBQ, and trails right outside the front door. Pet-friendly and built for entertaining — perfect for family reunions, adventure trips, and group getaways.

Perched on a hilltop above Redding, this 3-bedroom Mediterranean-style estate is built for entertaining and made for adventure. Mountain views from every patio, trails right outside the front door, and enough room for the whole group to spread out and stay a while.

Inside, soaring ceilings and a grand fireplace anchor the great room. The chef`s kitchen flows into the dining area beneath a chandelier and a wall of windows looking out at the hills. Bedrooms are named after local trailheads — a nod to the recreation just outside.

Trails accessible directly from the front door. Downtown Redding and the Sundial Bridge are a short drive away.

You`ll have the entire home and grounds to yourselves — every bedroom, the loft with pool table, the gym, all patios, and the outdoor kitchen. Self check-in via smart lock. (The garage is reserved and locked at all times.)

Hands-off but always within reach. You`ll get a personalized welcome message before arrival with check-in details, local recommendations, and our direct line. We respond within minutes during the day and always within an hour. Want a fully private stay? You`ve got it. Want our favorite trails, coffee, or dinner spots? Just ask.

This is the quieter, scenic side of Redding — surrounded by trails, lakes, and hilltop views, yet only minutes from town. You`re a short drive from the best of Northern California`s outdoor recreation.

GUESTS
Your reservation total is the maximum for the stay, day and night. Additional guests or daytime visitors need our written approval in advance. Anyone on the property who isn`t on the reservation may end the stay without a refund.

NO PARTIES OR EVENTS
Strictly prohibited. Violations carry a $500 charge plus damages and any additional cleaning, and possible immediate removal without a refund.

QUIET HOURS — 10 PM TO 8 AM
All outdoor activity moves inside by 10 PM. Outdoor string lights off at the same time.

PARKING AND NEIGHBORS
Park only where your check-in details instruct. Never block a neighbor`s driveway, mailbox, or access, and never park on a neighbor`s property. Where street parking is prohibited, it`s prohibited. No loud music, shouting, or disruptive behavior, inside or out.

DOGS ONLY
No cats, birds, reptiles, or other animals — our cleaning protocol is built around dogs, and cat allergens linger in fabric for months.
• Approval required in advance
• $50 per dog, per stay
• Never left unattended: $200 per occurrence
• Off all furniture, including blankets and beds
• All waste is yours to clean up, indoors and out
• Hair, stains, or scratches: cleaning from $100
• Unapproved animals: $200 minimum

SERVICE ANIMALS
Welcome at every home, no fee and no approval needed. Every rule above applies equally. Emotional support animals are not service animals and fall under the standard pet policy.

SMOKING AND VAPING
Prohibited inside, always, in every form. Outside, stay 25 feet from any door and from neighboring properties. Evidence of outdoor smoking: $75. Smoking inside is not a fine — it`s actual remediation cost plus revenue lost from blocked nights, and runs $250 to $2,000 and up.

CAMERAS AND MONITORING
Many homes have exterior cameras. There are never cameras inside. Some homes have noise monitoring that measures decibel levels only — no audio is recorded. Tampering with any device: $100 minimum and possible removal.

IF SOMETHING BREAKS
Every reservation includes a $25 waiver covering $500 in accidental damage. It has one condition: damage must be reported through this platform`s message thread when it happens. Damage found after checkout that was never reported falls outside the waiver.

FURNITURE
Please leave it where you found it. Moved furniture carries a $100 minimum repositioning charge.

SAFETY
Children supervised at all times. Fire pits, BBQs, pools, hot tubs, and yard games are used at your own risk. Fire bans and wildlife advisories change quickly — please check current conditions during your stay.
