Family Weekend

This place was perfect for our family weekend. We had a group of 10 adults and 5 babies from 2months to 4 years old. Lonnie and Linda are amazing and very helpful. we loved the house set up and made good use of the pool and hot tub. The water was high in the lake, so it was perfect for our kayaks and small boat. We will be back for sure.

WoWZA! Beautiful home on the lake!

Open airy home with A/C and plenty of beds for 14 adults and children. Great location on a back bay just above Tsasdi’s. Two mile drive to the market and 3 miles to the public launch ramp. Very clean and comfortable! Includes a pool, spa, grill, pool table and easy walking to the lakeshore. Great communication with the owners and very accommodating. Paddle boarding and fishing in the bay was so peaceful. We’ll definitely return next year.

Great stay

Super fun trip, as the house had everything that our three-generation family and friends needed. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved the view and the ease of cooking in the kitchen. All beds were comfortable and the house was spotless. Our dog enjoyed exploring the property outside. Thanks for a great stay, we would love to come back.

Best spot ever!!

This was a beautiful, clean property in a great neighborhood. House was spotless and the hosts were great. We had 4 adults and 5 kids, and had plenty of space to move around. Huge family room, tons of kitchen space and the kids had the whole downstairs to themselves. Tons of clean towels, comfy beds and every dish/pot/pan we could dream of. Will definitely book this place again!

Nice stay at a beautiful property

The house is right on a cove of Lake Shasta. Beautiful views of the bridge reflecting in the water. We stayed three nights. We had a two year old with us and the listing said there was a travel crib. We couldn't find one and the owner delivered one to us that evening along with some nice bar soap. Beds were comfy and the sheets nice and soft. Kitchen was well stocked. Pool and hot tub were both used and enjoyed. BBQ too.

Absolutely Best House For Family Reunion

Just got home from our annual Shasta family reunion with my children and their spouses. This by far was the best house we have rented at Shasta. It is spacious and perfect for accommodating large families. The amenities were great and well thought out. The trip went absolutely flawless and the location and view from the back porch were breath taking. Highly recommend this house. Will definitely be back.

Lake Front Gem

My family and I stayed for about a week and enjoyed this hidden gem. We span from ages 3-60. This property provided something for everyone to enjoy. There was plenty of parking on the premises and the grocery store was a quick 2 minute drive away. The house was extremely clean, communication was smooth, and the lake front access was spectacular. There is nothing like enjoying the hot tub with a lake front view. We all agreed that we would happily book this property again.

Lakefront Fun

This property is amazing. We can walk to the boat, jetski's, and paddle boards and have fun all day, then return to the pool and hot tub at night. The house is large and has beds and rooms for the whole family. We even set up an outdooor movie theater. Well stocked. It is beautiful, relaxing, and well worth your time.

We returned to this property again this year since we had such a great time last year. We are so happy we did! Same as last year, everything was perfect. Lonnie was wonderful, the house was beautiful, and we were impressed again. Thank you so much! Side note, I’m still blown away by how well stocked everything was…literally everything we could possibly need was there! WONDERFUL!!

Wonderful stay in Shasta

The pictures of this property do not do it justice. This vacation home is one of the most well equip and beautiful homes my family has ever stayed. The rooms were very nice. The pool is very large with a nice deep end to it. The hot tub is great. The outdoor grill was huge and worked amazing. The seating outside on patio was very nice as we spent most of the time outside, it was nice to have so much seating. The area was so quiet and peaceful. The lake had dropped significantly when arrive, but were still able to make quick hike down to it from the backyard gate and enjoy the lake. There is a place close by to rent jetskis or boats. we brought lots for floats and rafts to use in the lake. There is a small grocery store near the place that has nearly everything you need, but it's a bit pricey. We drove to Redding (25 min) to go do large grocery shopping. The owner Lonnie was great and very helpful. This is the perfect place to have large family or friend getaway.

BEST RENTAL HOME ON LAKE SHASTA!

This home has everything – beautiful location with easy accessibility to the lake, very clean with lots of room, well-stocked kitchen, more than enough towels and bedding, comfortable beds, views from nearly every room and much more! Also, enough room to seat large groups for meals as there are two large dining tables. It is a very quiet location, and we especially enjoyed sipping our morning coffee on the large deck overlooking the lake. Lonnie and Linda (the hosts) are very friendly and accommodating. It was fun speaking with them as they are a multi-generation family who have been in the area for a lifetime. Thank you, Lonnie and Linda, for opening up your home to us! P.S. If you enjoy fun funky restaurants with good food and friendly people, we recommend Klub Klondike.

Incredible Stay!

Had an incredible time in this lakeside home! In my opinion, the place looks better than the pictures portray. - Three bathrooms helped 11 of us get ready quickly. - Kitchen was well equipped. - Sleeping arrangements/rooms were perfect. - Hot tub was great. - Pool was nice. - Ability to paddle board via the backyard was the best. - Location is perfect. Last but not least, Lonnie was/is an incredible communicator. It's unfortunate we didn't get to meet in person - but I'm hoping we can meet the next time we come to Shasta and hopefully rent this home again!
