Great Property.....Great Location

You could spend a month here and never run out of things to do. Plenty of beds for the whole family and directly oncthe river! We did Burney Falls, Mc Cloud Falls (all three levels), Fairey Falls, and Hodge Creek Falls. We also took anamazing tour of Shasta Caverns which included a boat ride across the leg of the lake, a short bus ride up tp the caverns, and a guided tour inside. We did all that in two days!

Great Spot

We were here as a midpoint on a ride from Los Angeles to Seattle. The river was running too high for any luck fly fishing, but it was a great spot and we enjoyed casting none the less.Zero complaints about the cabin or the process.

A little piece of Paradise!

Perfect for our mini family reunion, Bedrooms were comfy and the loft provided a nice quiet place for reading or relaxing. The kitchen was perfect for us to gather cook and eat, inside or out on the deck. We really enjoyed sitting by the river and watching people fish. Easy walk to town too.

Perfect River Home

The owner is kind, thorough, and very responsive. The home is very clean and very well maintained. The location is ideal for hanging out swimming (chilly but refreshing!) and fishing in the river which is extremely close. A perfect stay!

Fly fishing trip - perfect location

The cabin was perfect for our annual flyfishing trip. Not only could we fish out the back door, but it’s very close to many wonderful rivers. Cabin was clean and comfortable, and just as described. Property manager was terrific. I would happily stay again.

The house was wonderful. It was great to have the river out the back door. The trains running by weren’t too loud. The host was very helpful and great communication when we contacted him. Dunsmuir is a cute little town.
