Welcome to Antlers Inn

Antlers Inn (formerly Antlers Motel), serving Chester for over 70 years, was rebuilt in 2008.  We are located right in Main Street in the heart of Chester, which is also Highway 36, and close to Lake Almanor and Mount Lassen. Our friendly & professional staff will do what they can to help provide you with a truly memorable experience. Each room features a modern lodge theme with decorative fireplaces, warm cozy blankets, wrought iron headboards and more... and, of course, free in-room coffee (or tea), refrigerators, microwaves, and 50" 4K satellite TVs. Borrow a game from the office and settle in to a cozy, modern, spacious retreat.
We will share with you all we know about the area's activities, restaurants, fishing hotspots, hiking trails and local news. The Housekeeping Staff will take excellent care of your rooms - and might have a few tips of their own! Walk across the street to the grocery store, Holiday Market, which conveniently features a deli, bakery, picnic and outdoor supplies, and plentiful selection of spirits for your vacation enjoyment....or just as close, head to the ever-popular Cravings for their amazing coffee and breakfast, or Kopper Kettle Cafe for meals where the locals eat. Just behind us, is the Collins Pines Nature Trail.

Lake Almanor is a fantastic lake to play on with your family for a day, a week, or even all summer. Summer water temperatures are perfect for swimming, water-skiing, and jet skis, usually between 68 and 70 degrees.

Reviews

Johnathan and the gang are all great helpful and amazing people, the rooms are all cozy and comfortable, Love staying here...
Josh | Google | 2025
This place was very nice. Not only was my room nice and toasty from the cold but very clean and smelled nice and homely. The staff was very helpful and had lots of recommendations on all the hot spots. Washer and dryer on the site although I did not use, but saw just in case. Walking distance from a grocery store (holiday) across the street to many varieties of restaurants including a pizza spot and bar within a 8 min walk. Thrift stores, flower shop, and liquor store as well. Definitely staying here again and highly recommended.

Everyone was eager to give information and make our stay comfortable. The spacious room and bathroom were fresh and nicely decorated. It was so nice to find a 10-cup coffee pot with ground coffee, ceramic cups and water glasses; even a tea towel. There is also an updated outside seating area, a big shiny community gas grill and place for pets. There was something for everyone. Antler's Inn is a gem.
