This is a great place to stay for a little getaway! Amy is a great host and the place was very clean and tidy when I arrived. It’s so close to so many great nature spots along with being close to Redding for any needed supplies. Definitely would rent again if I’m in the area!

Great place! The location was perfect, not in town but a short drive to town and a short drive in the other direction to some great outdoors spots. Place had everything I needed, was comfortable and private. I would stay there again!

Peaceful cottage

Everything was lovely. Check in was easy, host was gracious, It's a peaceful place to rest after driving on the busy I-5. I would definitely try to stop there again on my next trip in that area. And there's a quiet outdoor patio too!

The Peaceful Cottage was very comfortable, extremely clean, and well appointed. After driving on the I-5 all day, it was a cool respite in the heat on my journey. I really liked the little yard for my dog. I only stayed one night but it is close to Redding and Shasta lake dam which was pretty to see in the evening. There are a few restaurants in Shasta Lake town but many more options in nearby Redding. Overall, it was a very nice night's stay.

What can I say, Upon arrival we met Amy the host. She’s very friendly and hospitable. This little cottage was more than I expected. She had this well planned out. This cottage has everything needed and more to enjoy your stay. It’s very clean, smells good and the bed was very comfortable along with the nice sheets! Let’s not forget the amazing shower too. We definitely will be back.

All you need

We spent the Memorial Day weekend in this location. We wanted to spend time in the water, off roading, and to explore the area (Weed and more). This location was perfect. The host was very good at communicating and her cottage was absolutely wonderful. Very private location, super quiet, very calming. Would highly recommend this location if you visit Lake Shasta or the surrounding areas.

Charming and immaculate! We arrived late in the evening after a long drive, and walked in to a fresh and lovely scent, perfect temperature, spotless with wonderful amenities, (inc. water, chocolates, & games) and very comfortable bed. The outdoor seating area looked inviting, but we arrived too late and had to leave early the next morning. Our host was very responsive via text. I wish we had time to stay longer! I strongly recommend this delightful cottage located a mile away from beautiful Shasta Lake.

A Peaceful Retreat

This cottage is absolutely adorable. It is stocked with a microwave, refrigerator, hot plate, toaster oven, and Keurig. There are wonderful touches like coffee pods, body wash, shampoo/conditioner, and Q-tips in the bathroom. Nightstands were complete with water and York peppermint patties. This place feels homey and the bed is very comfortable. Amy has created a peaceful and relaxing retreat. My husband, dog, and I enjoyed staying here while exploring the area.
