Wonderful, everything as expected although could use another AC unit since it was triple digits the 3 days we were there. The owner were so helpful by providing an ice chest for a day at the lake upon request. The beds were comfy and showers had great pressure. I would highly recommend

Everything we needed

Every year members of my family meet in McCloud for a week of fishing. In years past we would stay at the cabins in the campground, however the boys turned to men and we needed more room. This home was perfect for us. Clean, relaxing and convenient. Will definitely stay here again.

About the host

Hosted by Caleb Martin

Host profile image
We are an outdoor family of 6 that has fallen in love with McCloud and all surrounding towns. We have 4 grown sons that grew up camping, hiking, riding, skiing, and fishing McCloud. We recently purchased The Mountain House from a great family who had owned the home for 65 years.

Why they chose this property

This home has such rich history and love. We fell in love with the house because of the views and proximity to downtown, hoo hoo park, Mount Shasta Ski resort, and many more.
