Wonderful Experience at Retreat # 3
We stayed here eight nights and the house was amazing. The home was very clean when we arrived. Well stocked with amenities including wood burning fireplace, hot tub, hammock and kayaks. We had all our meals on the outside deck, which had a beautiful view of the lake.I have rented many homes throughout my years and Lori, the host, is the best. Always got right back to me when I reached out to her. The whole process was exceptional organized and communicated in a timely manor.
Thank you for your kind words, Julia. You and and your family were wonderful guests and we would love to have you back as our guests...anytime! Have a great rest of your summer. Lori and Dave

Absolutely Amazing Stay!
Lori and Dave were incredible hosts—responsive, thoughtful, and welcoming. The cabin was absolutely immaculate and stocked with everything you could possibly need. This is by far the most impressive rental I’ve ever stayed at. The kitchen was fully equipped, which made it so easy to cook without having to improvise or bring extra gear. Communication was top-notch before, during, and even after our stay. We loved it so much, we’ve already booked our return trip!
Great house and location on the lake. We will come back again!

This was an amazing property to share with family. The location is amazing. I would recommend, however, the home could use a little more deep cleaning. I would use the property again.

The house has recently been remodeled and the owners did a fantastic job! Everything was neat and tidy and well appointed. Would definitely recommend this property. It’s located directly on the lake in a quite neighborhood.

We had a delightful time here. The home was perfect for our group. Large common areas, plenty of bedrooms, the wrap around shaded deck. The proximity to the lake was amazing. Lori was an attentive host; it was apparent that Lori takes a lot of pride in her property. Highly recommended.

Thank you Jamie for your kind words. We appreciated your ease of communication and your understanding of the conditions that impacted the lake level due to our CA drought. We take pride in setting clear expectations for our guests, and were happy to hear you had such a wonderful experience during your stay with us. We hope our winter brings much needed rain, so you consider returning next summer!
Everything is great, but the parking is a little challenging.

Wonderful Home in the Beauty of the Shasta Moutains
This home had everything described. Tons of a room for a large family and surrounded by nature. Home was clean and had all of the amenities you would expect from a vacation rental. Had a couple of questions and owner responded immediately. Had a wonderful time!

Nice house, great location, breathtaking views!
I rented this house for a girl's trip, for my daughter's 30th birthday. There were 7 of us staying at the house. The house was clean, well stocked and easy to find. Plenty of comfortable beds, and the living room / dining room easily accommodated us all. The water level was low during our stay, but the lake was still just a very short walk to get to. We all really enjoyed our weekend - I would rent here again.

Fantastic Lake front multi-family rental
We had the BEST time at Retreat 3. It is right on the lake, very easy access down to the water (when lake is full). It is super safe for children and parents can watch from the porch. The house is VERY well equipped. We wanted for nothing. The entire house was comfortable for our group of 8 - had plenty of room to spread out and hang around. The outside mini fridge, bbq and patio set were awesome for late nights. We will be back again soon!
The property was great we left early due to the SALT FIRE.

Thank you for staying with us. We recognized that this fire was an unexpected event, and interrupted your stay, but thankfully it was swiftly contained. We hope by giving you a refund for the 2 days you lost will prompt you to consider a future stay with us...we would love to have you back. Take good care. Lori and Dave

Amazing View and comfortable house
We loved Retreat #3. Very clean when we arrived and smelled clean. House was comfortable and very well equipped. Newly remodeled kitchen was nice. House is older but you can tell it has been well taken care of. The view of the lake was absolutely AMAZING! Very close to Sugarloaf Marina. The driveway was very steep and not ideal to park your boat in the driveway, but not bad for your cars and trucks. If I had any complaint at all, it would be the bed pillows were very flat. That’s just not my thing and I will bring my own next time I stay. We will be staying here again.

About the host
Hosted by Lori and David Raun
With over two decades of cherished family memories at Shasta Lake, we, David and Lori, came to regard Shasta Lake as the highlight of our summers. It's a place where families can bond, and where the range of activities appeals to every age group, making it the perfect spot for a family getaway.
Our love for Shasta Lake runs deep, leading us to make a life-changing decision in 2015 when we purchased our first lakefront home, known as Shasta Lakeshore Retreat #1. The incredible experiences we had here were simply too good not to share and we knew our houseboat days were over after staying in this home.
A year later, we acquired the property next door, now known as Shasta Lakeshore Retreat #2, bolstered by the popularity of our first home, which had become a year-round favorite.
In 2019, our two grown sons also fell in love with this wonderful place, prompting them to buy a home on the same charming street, christened as Shasta Lakeshore Retreat #3. They entrusted us with its management, a responsibility we take to heart.
After many requests from dear friends and neighbors, in 2021 we started managing other properties, which further enriched our collection. Although we only own two of them, today, we proudly represent 19 remarkable homes, each carefully selected for its unique charm, quality, and comfort. We firmly believe that an extraordinary home is the foundation of an unforgettable getaway, and we want nothing less than perfection for our valued guests.
Our journey doesn't end here; it's an ongoing adventure inspired by our passion for Shasta & the surrounding areas. We are committed to carefully expanding our offerings, reviewing additional unique homes to provide more options for all the wonderful families that come to visit this recreational area year after year providing them a much needed lodging option.
Warm regards, David and Lori
