About this property

On a Meadow by a Creek in the Shadow of Mt Shasta - Sleeps 8+

Tucked among towering pines just 3 miles south of McCloud, this 4-bedroom, 2-bath cabin on 2.5 acres sleeps 8 in comfort and offers the kind of quiet you can only find surrounded by nature. A short stroll from your door leads to your own private stretch of Squaw Creek (renamed Yet Atwam Creek) — the perfect spot for a morning coffee or an evening wade.

Built in 2000, the home blends rustic charm with modern comfort: vaulted ceilings, oversized picture windows framing views of your private forest and meadow, a cozy wood stove for chilly nights, and central heat for year-round ease. The fully equipped kitchen features a Jenn-Air stove, ready for everything from pancake breakfasts to full holiday dinners. Unwind on the expansive deck with a propane BBQ, stream your favorite shows over WiFi and Smart TV, or set the mood with the Bluetooth sound system.

Sleeping arrangements: 1 king, 2 queens, 2 twins, plus a roll-away and 2 couch beds — comfortably accommodating families, couples' getaways, or groups of friends.

Just 10 minutes away, you'll find two golf courses, local restaurants, skiing, trophy fishing streams and rivers, pristine lakes, state parks, and waterfalls with swimming holes — all the adventure you want, with all the peace and quiet you need to come home to.

About the host

Hosted by Walter Mathews

Host profile image
We purchased this 2.5 acre lot back in 1973 and spent years camping in the meadow. After the kids got old enough to complain about camping AND could afford to help pay for a mortgage ... we built this wonderful vacation home. Now, we spend winters skiing at Mt. Shasta and summers fishing the McCloud and other area rivers. The town is absolutely wonderful. Don't miss this!

Why they chose this property

Peace and quiet prevail. Just minutes from quaint McCloud, there is plenty to do in this forested wonderland.

What makes this property unique

Set beside a peaceful meadow with Squaw Valley Creek running along the far tree line, this home offers the rare combination of quiet seclusion and unbeatable convenience — you're just minutes from town, golf, biking, fishing, skiing and boarding, swimming, rock climbing, shopping, and endless day-trip adventures.

Inside, warm red pine floors and granite counters give the home a refined mountain-lodge feel, while big windows frame sweeping meadow and forest views and fill the space with natural light. Sink into one of two couches to relax after a day on the mountain, stream your favorite tunes on the Bluetooth stereo, or catch the game on Smart TVs — all backed by hi-speed Starlink WiFi.

Outside, there's plenty to love: generous parking for your vehicles and boats, a spacious deck made for entertaining and BBQs, and enough room in the yard for horseshoes or a pickup game of Wiffle ball. Quiet neighbors round out the peaceful setting, and in winter, extra sleds and saucers are ready to go for spontaneous snow days.

Whether you're chasing adventure or just craving serenity, this home delivers both in equal measure.
