Family vacation spot
**Great:**
- Conveniently close to the lake, just a short walk away.
- Nice separation of space, with the kids' area downstairs and adults' upstairs.
- Excellent VRBO management with clear communication and instructions.
- Clean and well-maintained appliances.
- Beautiful deck space for relaxing.
**Okay:**
- The downstairs area gets much cooler than upstairs when the AC is on, so consider bringing an extra blanket for the kids.
- There's a somewhat eccentric neighbor next door who’s very enthusiastic about the deer. We simply ignored it, and it wasn’t an issue.
- Deer frequently visit the yard, which could be a fun experience or a minor nuisance, depending on your perspective.
**Minor Considerations:**
*(I hesitate to even call these downsides since our stay was absolutely great, and there's nothing the owners or management can change, but these might be helpful to know.)*
- The house is located at the corner of a fork in the road, which makes pulling in a bit different.
- The steep driveway could be challenging if you're bringing a boat and trying to park up front.
- No Verizon cell reception at the house, although you can get a signal just a couple of minutes down the road.
- No yard for pets to roam around but it’s a really nice walk to the water, which we did quite often.
Overall, we had a wonderful stay and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property to others.
Thank you, Lori!

Will Stay Again
We loved this property. The kitchen was to die for. We had some fabulous meals cooked in it. Everything was well stocked. Stairs were hard for older family, maybe get the elevator running again. Holes in fence need to be fixed. A suggestion of a 4 foot fence between neighbors part of yard and your house, would be helpful for others who bring dogs. Overall the experience was AMAZING, location is PERFECT. I would stay again and again.

Close to the lake, with a gourmet kitchen!
The property was exactly as advertised and comfortably slept seven adults and one child. The main floor was very open from the kitchen, through the living room, and flowed out to a large deck. The kitchen was large, well stocked, and had premium appliances which made cooking a special meal for my mother's 60th a breeze. The whole group was talking about "next time" even before our last day. Lori was exceptionally responsive and had a great recommendation for a specialty butcher in town. Check out R&R if you need to pick up something to grill when coming here.

Beautiful, centrally located to all the beauty of Shasta
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay last week. The property is so beautifully upgraded. Definitely need to keep the door closed at the top of the stairs to keep the cold air circulating on the upper floor during the hot days of summer. The lower level was like an ice box! The kitchen was so well stocked with all the things you could need -- I even took pictures of a few things that I now want to buy for our own home. The only kitchen item that I could not find was a basting brush, and I only looked because everything else was there in plentiful quantity -- a full spice rack, baking dishes, a colander, wine opener, plates, glasses, ZIPLOCS, we were so pleasantly surprised! Thank you for all your thoughtfulness there! Our kids loved the t-shirts too!
If you have a pet, beware that the yard is not completely fenced in. There are several holes in the chain link that the local deer (and two fawn) come through to eat in the neighbors yard. Neighbor also has several hummingbird feeders and in the mornings there are hundreds over there! We also had a close encounter with a skunk, but our pup escaped without getting sprayed. Owner did provide a gate at the bottom of the balcony stairs - thank you. We just took our pup on a lot of walks. Neighbors are lovely. We met a few, and everyone is very quiet and kind.
Only downside was the lack of mobile service (not owner's fault) and the lake levels which we knew to expect. How do you even prepare yourself for that. When the lake is full again, this property will truly have it all. Who needs mobile service when you're at the lake? Easy drive to Shasta Caverns, Whiskeytown, Mt Shasta, McCloud Falls, Castle Crags.... Little grocery store down the street had what we needed. Would definitely stay again!

Shasta Summer Fun!
Book this place now if you want an amazing experience at the lake! The property management team is super responsive and has thought of everything! This house is actually better than described. So much room to hang out in. The launch for the lake is just down the street--I think this house is closest to where you can launch at this point. Launch and parking were not a problem at all. Once you launch, it's only a short easy ride out to where you can ski and board. If you don't want to venture far out in the lake, there are a lot of places to anchor and enjoy the view in the river. The lake has more than enough water to go have fun! We had most of the lake to ourselves during the week! The water is just the right temp to cool off on hot days. The house has a huge kitchen with everything you could need, giant master shower, great deck, massive living room with comfy couch, pool table, bunk beds for the kiddos. Pack your bathing suit and towel and just go!
