Great House for Shasta Ski Trip

Our family had a wonderful weekend in this house. The bedrooms fit our family's needs and everything was just easy and do-able. It was comfortable and casual with extra bedding and towels, a washer/dryer, and everything else you'd need for a winter weekend away. We were close enough to Mt. Shasta for easy drives to and from skiing. We'd love to stay here again.

Perfect location to experience Mt. Shasta

This property is perfectly located to access the Mt. Shasta Ski Park and its adjacent cross-country Nordic Skiing Center. You can get there within 15 minutes. Waterfalls, lakes, and hikes are also easily accessible. It is all about location. We look forward to also visit in the summer.

Lovely getaway

We had a terrific stay. The house is wonderfully comfortable, kitchen is well stocked and beds are nice. My son spent a lot of time biking around the property on his mountain bike, and had a lot of fun. The town of McCloud is postcard perfect also, really great.

MCloud Forest Get A Way!

We had a very nice time at this cute house in the trees of McCloud. It was really hot that week but we stayed cool and enjoyed evenings and mornings on the porch swing. Saw a rabbit each morning, a couple of deer and one coyote. It was very quiet, peaceful and comfortable. Big kitchen counter was great. My husband saw a bear down by the river when fishing and caught several fish. Very happy to have dog friendly house rental option. Usually we camp but I had some work to do so the house doubled as a very serene remote office. Our dogs loved it too!

Great place to stay in Mc Cloud

This was our second time staying at Joe's home. We love the place, very roomy, quiet and set up with all the essential kitchen items. We 4 women have an annual ski trip get together to Shasta, and this place fits the bill perfectly for us. We will be back....

We had wonderful time!

The house is clean and well-maintained, we really enjoyed the setting - the woods and a quiet neighborhood. You can take nice long walks right from the house. The nearby pasture with cows and horses is very picturesque. We loved being in close proximity to fantastic trailheads and destinations like lava caves, multiple waterfalls, lakes, Shasta Caverns, Castle Crags, and, of course, Mt Shasta. There are plenty of options for shopping and eating out, too.

Great Snow Cabin

This was a quick, last-minute New Year's snow trip. Initially, there wasn't any snow, but a few inches fell the night we arrived, and we had a fantastic time. On our way up, we visited the Shasta Caverns and stopped at Burney Falls on the way down. It was an excellent trip for the family. Besides playing in the snow on the 2 1/2 acres, there's also a great free sledding hill just 10 minutes away. We all had a wonderful time; the house perfectly accommodated our family of eight, and the Internet was great for streaming shows.

Wonderful stay in a wonderful location

We visited the Mt Shasta area with friends, having heard that the location was lovely, peaceful and interesting. We all much prefer to have intimate space to prepare breakfast and snacks before heading out, to relax at the end of a day's exploring, and to cook our own food. Hotels don't meet those requirements, but Joe's home absolutely did. His facility lacked nothing that we needed. So much so that we'll return next year for another restorative week!

Great House Beautiful Property

Visiting as two couples, we found the house spacious and well stocked. The weather turned chilly and the Monitor stove worked like a charm to heat the house. Great neighborhood to walk the dog. Enjoyed watching two young deer browsing in the yard. We checked out the town of MCCloud and enjoyed dinner at the “Axe” and a breakfast at Bogeys. Very good location to check out the towns of Mt Shasta, Weed and Etna. Thank you for the hospitality

We met up with our in-laws from Oregon and spent an extended weekend to enjoy Mt Shasta area. The house was a great choice and offered quiet surrounding for walks and outdoor fun for kids/dog. The location. Is close to Shasta and other outdoor acitivies. We loved the McCloud fall and the hike was enjoyable for all! We will definitely come back again!

wonderful place to gather

This was the 2nd time my wife and I stayed at the home and it was as wonderful as we remembered it 2 years ago. The open flooring, outside deck, and front yard was great for out little one to run around. I appreciated how the windows were insulated well and two of the rooms had sliding glass doors to access outside easily. The kitchen was stocked with all the supplies we needed and the bbq was useful. Clean and spacious. We will def come back for a 3rd visit.
