The home is located in the historic town of Shasta. Some refer to Shasta as Old Shasta. Our town has a Courthouse/Museum, Mercantile and Shorty's cafe along with the row of brick ruins that line the highway. The Western Star Lodge #2 is the oldest chartered lodge in California. The town has 3 historic cemeteries, Masonic, Catholic and the Union (Pioneer) Cemetery. The State park is located within walking distance.
Whiskeytown lake (3 miles) most trails are now open and the lake is having some great fishing days. Some of our guest that are avid gold miners have found nuggets in unusual areas. Areas that were inaccessible before the fire.
Don’t forget to pickup your $1 gold panning permit at Whiskeytown National Park.

The Little Red House
It is always our goal to provide guests with the rustic beauty and charm, while providing all the modern conveniences of home. Work from home! Adventure!
We have taken pride in our home, as it is the home in which we raised our two girls. Cleanliness is always our first priority along with comfort. An Ionizer (purifying) is used for 6-8 hours. All bedding is washed in hot water. Both bedrooms have luxurious beds, bedding and pillows for a perfect night’s sleep. The backyard gives you the solitude of a parklike setting. Our redwood outdoor shower is a real treat!

My husband and I enjoy hiking and biking locally with day hikes to surrounding areas.
Other areas to hike besides Whiskeytown are Castle Crags, Mt. Shasta, Mt. Lassen or even a day trip to the coast.

We also have a pear tree that bears fruit towards the end of October through the first 3 weeks of November. This pear tree was planted at our home in 1957. In 2015 the mother pear tree produced 2018 pounds. I have also grafted an additional 30 trees as of which 14 are planted at the Little Red House. Join us for fall and enjoy our pears.

We have a few inquiries regarding pets. We love animals however, our Fir floors are soft wood and took me a month to refinish from pet nail damage. Plus, since we advertise a pet free home to those with allergies. The backyard is also not dog proof.

Available for short term rentals, 3 days or 3 months.
