We loved our stay at this quiet getaway. The staff was very accommodating and welcoming. The grounds and our room were very clean. My only recommendation would be the breakfast. The food could use a little improvement in quality. Other than that this place is super! Highly recommend!

Such a treat...on a long road trip.

It was a wonderful treat to discover The Inn at Shasta Lake. The room was lovely. The dinner option was wonderful and delicious, and the breakfast was also quite good and delivered to the room. Such a peaceful atmosphere. There is some freeway noise, but easy to ignore. I will definitely stay again.

A Disappointing and Poorly Managed Property. Avoid at All Costs. Our stay at this Inn was deeply disappointing due to glaring mismanagement and a complete lack of hospitality. What could have been a beautiful and peaceful retreat has sadly deteriorated into a neglected and poorly maintained rental. We rented the treehouse, which came at a premium and was advertised as having its own kitchen. However, the kitchen was completely empty: no glasses, plates, utensils, or even basic necessities. We had to walk to the main house to retrieve a few loose plastic items, which felt both unsanitary and highly inconvenient. The interior was not clean, and the landscaping was clearly neglected. Shrubs and branches along our walkway were so overgrown they struck us in the face. The property appears to have once been beautiful, but it has now been left in a state of visible decline. If you're considering staying in the main house, be aware that it carries a strong and persistent smell of Indian food. The breakfast brought to us was entirely Indian cuisine, with no alternative offered. It was unpalatable to the point where I could not eat it. Additionally, the property is cluttered with Buddha statues that are for sale.
