About this property

Unique Former Fly Fishing Lodge

Located just 5 miles from Shasta Lake this former fly fishing lodge is perched on a private mesa overlooking the wild and scenic Upper Sacramento River. It is the only structure on the water for over 25 miles and is completely private yet easily accessible. It is just 5 minutes from Lake Shasta and only 25 minutes to Redding or Mount Shasta.

Perfect for a dream vacation, large or small family reunion, weddings, large events, or just a great fishing adventure. The lodge can accommodate up to 16 people and has a formal dining room with a 16' table. With 3 refrigerators, 1 chest freezer, 2 ovens, 2 dishwashers, and 2 sinks even the largest meals can be prepared easily. Watch the eagles and osprey soar as you sit on the front porch or walk with the kids down to an idyllic swimming hole that is just steps away. Did we mention the large wild rainbow trout just outside the front door? Guides and instruction can be arranged. There is a pull-through for your ski boat, plenty of parking, and even a spot for a large RV.

Wonderful family friendly home
Two families of six stayed here for a week and it was perfect. Plenty of room for everyone to sleep and three full bathrooms. The home has a huge grass lawn to play on and the spa was very nice and clean with a view of the mountains, river and trains. The kitchen has everything you could ever need and even a Keurig! It was a huge blessing that there was plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, dish washer detergent, and trash bags. The train does go by a couple of times a day or night. I heard it the first night but slept through it the rest of the nights. We took all eight of our kids down to the sandy beach at the river which is on the right before the property. Crossing the train tracks was no big deal and the kids loved swimming in the river. Bring life jacket for littles and our bigs just floated around in tube rafts. We brought out boat and jet ski. Plenty of parking room and we used the Antlers boat ramp which was 5 minutes from the house. Tons of coves to play in just across from the launch ramp. Loved this house and will definitely stay again! Highly recommend.

Great getaway by Lake Shasta
Cute place with 5 small bedrooms for our extended family. Close to lake shasta, a really nice spot on the river. The train is close by but not too noisy. Some of the family enjoyed the hot tub. Great accommodations for an extended family or small wedding party.
