Foxfell At Shata Lake: Ideally Located, 4 Acres, Pet Friendly, WIFI, 360 Views

REOPENING DEALS!
After 8 months of renovations, we're reopening, even better than before, just in time for Summer! To celebrate the reopening, we are offering weekly and monthly discounts for longer stays of 7-28 days. The best available promotion is automatically applied to your selected dates.

PRIVATELY OWNED
This home is owned and operated by a single-property private owner, and co-hosted by a local family. Sleep comfortably knowing your stay supports local small business.

CAPACITY
We can and are happy to accommodate up to 12 guests (9 adults,) but we think the space is most comfortable for a group of 8 or less.

SUPERIOR LOCATION
We are ideally located on O'Brien Mountain, an extremely sought-after area of the lake, above which the 3 largest arms of Lake Shasta all meet, providing you quick and easy access to the widest sections of the lake. Lying just to the north of the I-5 Pit River Bridge, it also provides the quickest access from Lakehead to the nearby towns of Shasta Lake and Redding.

From the front door of the house, you will be only 3-7 minutes from: the I-5, Holiday Harbor, Shasta Caverns, and public water access/boat launches. You can enjoy paved road all the way from the highway to our driveway.

PRIVACY & SERENITY
Your only next-door neighbors are the deer, birds, squirrel, and other Shasta-Trinity National Forest wildlife. Enjoy the peaceful serenity and unobstructed views only our unique nature retreat has to offer.

Should you need them, however, our friendly co-hosts live just up the road and can respond in a flash.

PRIVATE PARKING
We have ample private parking, with enough room for multiple vehicles and your boat or other toys.

ENHANCED CONNECTIVITY
We are able to provide unlimited WiFi and a cell-phone signal booster to help you stay connected during your stay, a rare feature up here in the mountains!

GORGEOUS VIEWS
The house takes advantage of all the incredible surrounding nature with an abundance of large windows, providing plenty of sunlight and a restorative scenic view from every single room. Enjoy plentiful birdwatching right outside the 2-story living room window during the day and the clearest cleanest skies for Star-gazing at night. Thanks to the elevation of the house, you will be sitting among the tree tops, almost as if in a giant treehouse, with a clear view out to a colorful sunset behind the mountain ranges.

NEWLY RENOVATED!
Every room has been either fully or partially renovated and/or refurbished during 2025-2026. While we strove to retain a classic aesthetic, suitable for a mountain/lake getaway, you can enjoy fresh new surfaces and comfortable amenities.

THOUGHTFULLY CURATED DESIGN
A comfortable and inviting interior design sets Foxfell apart. We’ve made great efforts to ensure Foxfell is more than just beds to sleep in, but also an inspiring environment that creates a feeling of home.

The unique floor plan provides a combination of areas both cozy and spacious .

THE ROOMS...

LIVING ROOM
The living room features a wood-burning stove nestled into an impressive floor-to-ceiling stone alcove, and a 50-inch flat screen smart TV. But, you'll first have to peel your eyes away from the giant 2-story window and its absolutely dazzling scenic view!

KITCHEN
The kitchen is equipped with all the major modern kitchen appliances and cooking supplies, as well as place settings for your whole party. It features a fridge, ice/water dispenser, dishwasher, microwave, toaster, blenders, and it even boasts an additional beverage fridge for your cold drinks.

DINING, BAR, & COFFEE
In the adjoining dining areas, you'll find a fully stocked coffee bar, a dry bar (b.y.o.b.,) and 3 separate dining tables, (with 14 seats total, including the kitchen island stools.) You'll also find a large comfy window bench from which to admire the giant oak just outside and the a gorgeous nearby mountain range.

BEDROOM 1: THE LOFT SUITE
*sleeps up to 3 comfortably*
Upstairs, you'll find the primary suite, the Loft Suite. It consists of a large bedroom, adjoining sitting room, wrap-around balcony deck, and en suite bathroom. The bedroom boasts a luxurious California King bed, high vaulted ceiling, and another 50-inch flat screen smart TV. The adjoining sitting room offers a twin-size day bed, as well as a vintage writing desk and ergonomic chair for working vacationers in need of a work station. From there, go out onto the private wrap-around balcony deck for some fresh air or make your way to the en suite...

UPSTAIRS BATHROOM
The spa-like en suite upstairs bathroom features a luxurious oversized double-headed shower and double vanity.

BEDROOM 2: THE EXPEDITION ROOM
*sleeps up to 7 comfortably (3 adults by local regulation)*
Back downstairs, the Expedition Room is a child's dream come true, (and also for the young-at-heart!) This double-sized bunk room was inspired by vintage summer camps and scout expeditions. Elaborately designed to mimic a large camping tent in the woods, the room features: a full-size bed, additional full-over-full bunk beds, and a double hammock. The highlight of the room is the campfire coffee table, which features a nightlight that simulates campfire flames. (*Please note that this room was designed with children about 9 and older in mind. While children of all ages are welcome at the house, this room is most safe/suitable for younger children when adult supervision is present.)

BEDROOM 3: THE HONEY BEAR ROOM
*sleeps up to 2 comfortably*
Just across the hall, the Honey Bear Room provides a comfy queen bed, 40-inch flat screen with blu-ray, and a small nook with a vanity/work desk. It also features a lovely view of a tree-lined area of our property where young deer often play and graze.

DOWNSTAIRS BATHROOM
The charming downstairs bathroom features an oversized in-ground soaking tub next to an enormous picture window that looks out onto the neighboring national forest land. It's a wonderful place to soak in a nice long bubble bath while watching deer graze.

LIBRARY
Back upstairs, you'll find the Loft Library, where you can cozy up with one of our books or find a collection of board games for family fun time.

LAUNDRY
The large primary bedroom walk-in closet doubles as a laundry room, and is stocked with helpful amenities, such as; iron/ironing board, travel crib, extra portable fan, extra blankets, and cleaning supplies.
