Full of adventure

Came from Lassen national park, while in town enjoyed area hikes such as Massabre falls (so cool, hard to find), Hedge falls and awesome Pluto cave hike! Free shasta dam tour is great. Communication was clear and helpful, town is small but walk to eateries, home well stocked for cooking. All bases covered by kathy! Quiet area. The hiking book was helpful. Thanks for the excellent wine and picnic supplies! Wish there was laundry facilities. Overall lovely area and stay, remote for cell service which was true in all of mt shasta area.

Family trip to waterfalls

The home is old. The description online states this. There is a stale smell that hits you when you walk in. The kitchen allows you to make meals and not have to eat out. Easy to get in touch with host.

Great place just off Dunsmuir Ave

Great place at a great price! The host is really friendly. We go up there for fishing so most of the time just eat and sleep there. Would stay there again. Thank you!

Vintage decor in an 100 year old home that was very reminiscent of staying at my Grandmother’s in SD. I would definitely recommend.

Dissatisfied

I really don’t know why anyone would stay here. I can’t list the amount of things wrong with this place. No modern convinces. All the furniture needs to be taken to the dump! I think a marching band was staying above us. Worst beds I’ve ever slept on. Portable heaters are too hot or too cold. No TV stations or streaming. What a nightmare. They even tried to bump the dates I already booked. Please don’t make the same mistake I did & never rent this dump

Tolle Ausgangslage für vielseitige Unternehmungen und Wanderung. Unterkunft hat einen persönlichen Charme. Die Nähe der I5 verlangt geschlossene Fenster.
