Loved it!

We came from the north to meet friends from the south for a fishing trip. And the cottage was clean, neat and comfortable. The kitchen had amenities like spices and zip lock bags and dish soap which was really appreciated. Yes, the railroad is nearby, but it really didn't disrupt our visit or sleep. We hope to return for another visit!

Lovely, quaint little cabin

Although this cabin is close to the tracks and river, and the train is fairly loud, we didn't mind. It's actually my toddlers favorite part. The cabin was cute but small, very clean, and has all the utensils you need to cook. Its a bit too tight if you need to bring a play pen for a toddler to sleep, so be aware, but otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

Great Location, close to Shasta and day hikes.

Central, family friendly and charming, very cozy cabin. I read about the train, but it really didn't bother us at all. The owner was helpful and provided me a list of family friendly hikes. We would definitely stay there again.

Very relaxing and comfortable

The beds were probably the best, it is hard to find a place where you sleep well. The trains did go through often, but did not bother us one bit, love the sound of trains. Beautiful all around, kitchen had everything we needed and enjoyed sitting in the living room next to the fire. I would definitely come back!

Delightful and homey

My partner and I stumbled upon Dunsmuir a few years back when looking to celebrate an anniversary. We instantly fell in love with the area. This cabin was the cherry on top of a return trip. The fire was so cozy. The living space had games and books and just felt so welcoming. We didn't want to leave. Our host was amazing and communicated everything we needed. We were already discussing coming back there in the future after day one.

Wonderful retreat in the woods

This little house was absolutely darling! It was very clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with pots & pans and all of the essentials. Especially enjoyed the lovely front porch-- a great place to have morning coffee and listen to the birds. It was a 2 minute walk to the river which had some nice swimming holes. I highly recommend this cabin and hope to return again in the future.

The location was amazing! A drive to Redding or to Weed to stock up ain't far. Yaks is right down the street, don't miss that stop. The cabin was secluded and has beautiful scenery. And if you're down for a 20-minute hike, up the railroad tracks got you two beautiful waterfalls to dip right in.

Nice Cabin in the Woods

This cabin is a nice choice for the Shasta area. Close to both Dunsmuir and Mt Shasta towns. Easy access to I-5 to reach all nearby adventures. Clean property and nice to have a fully stocked kitchen and washer/dryer on site. Trains do pass just down the street, we really didn’t notice them while sleeping as the bedrooms are on the other side of the house, but they are noticeable from the living room, etc.
