We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay. It was the perfect location to many outdoor activities. The home itself was cozy and had all the amenities we needed. Wish we could’ve stayed longer. Will definitely be back to do more exploring!

Beautiful guest house

We loved the house. It was great except the previous guest must have had a dog and the house smelled like a dog. I had to use air freshener and open all the windows. There was no dog hair but the smell was overwhelming and powerful. After 24 hours with the windows open the smell dissipated but it was rough the first night.

Overnight Stop

This was a clean and comfortable home to break up the drive to Oregon. Close to the freeway but no freeway noise. Able to park a car with trailer. Good fenced yard for our dog. Cute outdoor siting area and bar b que; if only it had been warmer! It was nice inside, the bed was comfortable, and the master bathroom was clean and had good amenities.

New Years Celebrations/ Shasta Caverns

We rented this home for an overnight trip to the Shasta Caverns. The rain accumulation for the weekend forced the caverns to stop tours. We ended up still going on our trip because it was too late to cancel the rental. We had a blast ringing in the new year with our children. I was surprised to find there was no oven. We bought lasagna to cook for dinner. Thankfully we bought two small Costco lasagnas and they fit in the toaster over we found tuck away in the cupboard.
