The cabin was just what we needed. We enjoyed the quiet of being in woods and being able to explore. We had a couple of problems-sinks in the bathrooms that were very slow to drain and the dryer didn't work well. Otherwise it was a fun stay.

The property was really beautiful! The house was very nice! It was rustic and cozey in a very good way. It really added to the whole mountain experience! There were plenty of rooms and beds for the group I was with. The only negative thing I could say about the place is that the white binder with instructions for wifi and checking out was missing. We weren't 100% sure what the checkout instructions were supposed to be. We just did the standard stuff that is usually required and think it was fine. We didn't need the wifi password either, but other customers might. Other than that it was perfect!

Solid option for large groups close to the ski park. Needs some new mattresses in a few rooms and would have been nice to have it warm on arrival. Otherwise, no complaints!

This was great place for our large family to enjoy our gathering! The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. The rooms were spacious and decorated so cute for their themes. The hills outside were filled with snow for of us to sled. We will definitely return for future getaways.

About the host

Hosted by Ruth Altes

Host profile image

We moved to the beautiful and special area here in Mt. Shasta full time about 2 years ago from Sonoma County. We have been travelling to this area for the past 7 years when we purchased the chalet for our use as a vacation home. We knew the area was special and was the place we wanted to raise our two young boys so we built a new house and opened up our wonderful chalet for others to enjoy.

Why they chose this property

This house is situated on the side of the mountain that we love. We love the landscape and the weather on this side of the mountain, it is typically cooler in the summer and we are fortunate to get our fair share of snow. We don't get the wind that the more western side of Mt. Shasta area gets and we typically get the same snow fall that the ski park enjoys at their base. We are not in the city, have few neighbors and have the mountain as our back yard. We ride our quads, snowmobiles, bikes, horses, and even hike right from the property. We are close enough to town and all of the lakes, streams and rivers that we also enjoy all of the water sports and fishing. We remodeled the house when we bought it in 2006, so it has unique features and has a great layout to accommodate many people.

What makes this property unique

Nearby enjoy a beautiful outdoor venue for your wedding or other special event: (weddings, corporate retreats, family reunion, BBQ, Birthday Parties, Spiritual Retreat, Yoga Retreat, Company parties, etc.) Located only 3 miles from the Chalet with plenty of parking and lots of great amenities to come. A spectacular view of Mt. Shasta along with surrounding mountains. Also available: overnight horse accommodations, access to Public USFS lands directly from the property.
