Perfect place for my wife and dog to stay on our journey! The host was very nice on welcoming on our arrival. The house was very clean and cozy with a nice big fenced in yard. Loved it! Plan on trying to stay here anytime we are traveling
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!
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!
My stay was great! The area was quiet and the cottage was stocked with anything I could need. The fenced in yard was an amazing perk for my dog to stretch her legs after our drive. The cottage was clean and the bed was comfortable.
We enjoyed our stay at this peaceful little cottage. It was quiet, clean, and cozy. Amy was a thoughtful and friendly host! We would highly recommend this VRBO :)
Centrally located for all adventures and activities. Communication with the host Amy was easy and clear and she was very kind! The place was so clean and well stocked, and everything was thoroughly labeled!
The host was very accomodating and even greeted me even though I arrived late. The stay was very relaxing with a great bed that made it hard to wake up in the morning. They thought of everything when it comes to a long term or even short term stay including needs for a pup if you forgot something. The best part for someone traveling with their pup as I was, is that the entire front area is fenced. I greatly appreciated the level accommodations.
This was amazing, I came to visit my bf, so we just stayed in this little home. Amy is so nice, she made sure if we needed anything. The inside is exactly how it looks in the pictures, the neighborhood is quiet. Definitely will come again!!

The cottage was lovely and very clean, with beautiful decor. We had a very peaceful time, it was just what we needed. We had a fun visit to Shasta Dam, very close, and sat outside on the back patio and watched the stars. Thank you!
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!
