Perfect location!

The house was nicely updated, well stocked and the location was perfect! Owners were super helpful and responsive. Incredibly short drive to Sugarloaf, great covered deck to hang out on when the weather was a little questionable. Couldnโ€™t be happier!

Amazing Stay in Lake Shasta

We had an extraordinary visit to Lake Shasta. This retreat was everything we hoped it would be. The views were spectacular and the retreat was in great shape. There was plenty of space for all of us to spread out and relax. We took advantage of the short walk to the marina and the ability to use the kayaks provided. We definitely plan on returning soon! And special thanks to Lori for all that she did to communicate with us before and during our stay to make sure everything was going well.

This cabin has a gorgeous view of Lake Shasta and surrounding hills. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Lori and Dave are wonderful and caring hosts. A couple of issues came up and they solved them quickly. I would definitely book with Shasta Lake shore Resort again.

Fantastic Stay!

What a great place! Exactly as described; the house had everything we needed as we enjoyed a relaxing weekend. The view of the lake was priceless. Great walking distance to the marina to watch the boats and get some ice cream with the kids. Would definitely love to come back and rent a boat next time. Dave & Lori were great and friendly hosts.

Well stocked and comfortable.

The house had pretty much anything that you could need. We loved the quiet community. The house was a perfect home base for all of the outdoor activities that our group did in the area. The house was a little smaller than expected, but was still comfortable for our group.

Perfect lake getaway

This lake retreat is exactly as advertised. It is located right next to beautiful Shasta lake and sugarloaf marina and has all the convenient amenities of home. The wrap around deck was our favorite feature and where we spent all of our mornings and evenings gazing at the beautiful views. We hope to return again in the future!

Great Place

We had a great time staying at the Shasta Retreat Cabin 1. It was impeccably clean, with an amazing location. We kayaked and paddle board, enjoyed the hot tub among the stars, and even watched the NBA finals. We had sโ€™mores after a long day on the lake with the pit on the deck. Go! While the lake is tip-top!!!

The house and location are the best on the lake

We have stayed at Lake Shasta many times at different places, but I can say this is the best house and location we have found. The views from the deck are unbelievable and the house is amazing. We docked are boat at Sugarloaf and it is an easy walk from house. The response and hospitality from Lori was beyond our expectations, we will definitely be back.

Wonderful Lakehouse Retreat!

We are 2 retired couples on a road trip and enjoyed 2 restful nights at this beautiful house on Lake Shasta. Lori and David were easy to communicate with and the house was lovely, clean and very comfortable. We had everything we needed and would have enjoyed a few more days to rent a boat and explore the lake, but alas we had a very busy Itinerary. We will have to come back!!
