About this property

Foxfell At Shasta Lake: "Stunning Views" • "Very Private" • "Coziest Beds"

Welcome to Foxfell At Shasta Lake. This enchanting mountain/lake getaway is ideally located on 4 acres, surrounded by forest land. Enjoy the beauty and serenity of a remote getaway while still conveniently located just a few short minutes from all the lake's best attractions: Shasta Caverns, Holiday Harbor, & more. Breathtaking nature views, a themed kids' room, lots of amenities, and a thoughtfully designed interior make this a can’t-miss stay for both romantic getaways and family vacations.

PRIVATELY OWNED

About the host

Hosted by Michael Priebe

Host profile image
I am a TV/media professional, who enjoys: art, books, cooking, traveling, and light construction projects. I did much of the renovations and interior design on my rental myself. I now manage the home remotely from SoCal, but I have a fantastic local team. I feel very fortunate to be able to offer a place families and friends can form lifelong memories. As a single-property private owner, I am incredibly grateful to my guests for their support. I do my best to always be available to my guests to address issues, answer questions, and provide local tips when asked. Otherwise, however, I like to give my guests their privacy and the space to make themselves at home.

Why they chose this property

Nothing beats the scenic beauty of Shasta Lake and the Shasta Trinity National Park. Whether you're here for fishing or water sports or just to get some quiet relaxation, the environment is nothing short of magical. This house is located on O'Brien Mountain, one of the premier neighborhoods around Shasta Lake, known for its ideal proximity to popular local attractions, best bass fishing, favored boat rentals, and public lake access points. I chose this house because even with all of that and its convenient proximity to the I-5, it still feels as though it sits in a deep remote private forest. With forest land surrounding the property on 3 sides, and expansive nature views, it becomes very easy here to "get away from it all" without actually being cut off from anything.

What makes this property unique

This house has been a 4-year restoration project and a labor of love. It was once a jewel of the mountain, but had been neglected for some time before I purchased it. It was a joy, an honor, and a huge pain in the rear to restore the main house back to it's potential. I did much of the work myself, so I take great pride and pleasure every time a guest tells me how beautiful and comfortable it was for their stay. Eventually, I hope to do similar work on the smaller support structures on the property to further expand what we can offer to our guests. In the meantime, the main house has much to offer, including: incredible large windows throughout, tons of natural light, an exciting themed kids room, extremely comfortable beds, a fully equipped kitchen, BBQ, nostalgic vintage vibes, modern amenities, tons of privacy, immersive nature, an absolutely ideal location, and absolutely incredible views.
