Location: Willow Creek, Trinity River, Shasta Cascade, California, USA (45 Miles Inland on Hwy 299 from Coast Highway 101 at Arcata)
Accommodations: Cabin, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 4-6)
The cabin is located in the rural northern California mountains, with the scenic Trinity River just 100 yards away. Just four miles from town, you are out in the country. Some folks have said the cabin is not as rustic as they thought it would be, we enjoy it's simple, comfortable style.
Summers are warm which makes the river swimming delightful, spring and fall are very pretty, and winter is often rainy and cool, no real snow sticks in the valley, but the mountain pass can see it's share. We have had visitors enjoy all seasons.
Salmon and steelhead fishing, rafting and kayaking are major activities. Or take a day trip to the coast and the Redwood National Park and beaches. Restaurants and a grocery store, golf course and tennis court in Willow Creek make your stay comfortable. Back roads for biking, the Trinity Alps and Marble Mountains are nearby, some hiking trails lead out of the valley as well. Or just relax and let the river flow.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 1999
We are a middle aged couple with two children. We work full time and enjoy our vacation home when we can. We enjoy sharing it with others and of course it helps a great deal to have some rental income to maintain it. It is a special place to us and has created many happy family memories. We have some families return year after year, so it has become a happy family memories for them as well!
Why the Owner Chose Willow Creek
The Trinity River is a very beautiful natural setting. We bought the property to enjoy the sun, as we live in the coastal fog belt. We wanted a place right on the river, to be able to swim and relax without having to drive anywhere. We can grow a summer garden, which we really can't do in the fog. We love the town of Willow Creek, which has so many activities available, such as the rafting companies that rent boats and provide guided trips. There are no crowds and everything you need. We can be there for a weekend easily, with no long drives or flights.

Hi, the summer is here! April was constant rain, but now 2003 is looking like a great year, the river is full, the tomatoes are planted and the lawn mowed. The bathroom got a new floor this winter. We are ready for your visit!
