Awesome!!

We stayed here in July and it was awesome to anchor the boats in front of the house! Water was close enough for many daily swims and paddle boarding ❤️ the host communicated instantly and we had a wonderful time.

Nice house, great location, breathtaking views!

I rented this house for a girl's trip, for my daughter's 30th birthday. There were 7 of us staying at the house. The house was clean, well stocked and easy to find. Plenty of comfortable beds, and the living room / dining room easily accommodated us all. The water level was low during our stay, but the lake was still just a very short walk to get to. We all really enjoyed our weekend - I would rent here again.

Great Family Lake House

We have a large family and this house was perfect, everyone fit and had plenty of space to spread out. We loved The fact that it is lakefront makes it so easy to access the water. We loved having the extra water toys the house supplied, every kid had something to use in the water. Kitchen was fully equipped and had everything our family forgot. All in all we had a great time. Will stay again for our next family function. 5 stars! Highly recommend for families :)

Our favorite vacation

We’ve been renting retreat number three since summer 2020. It’s become our absolute favorite vacation! We come for 10 days and bring our two small babies and our family and our dogs. The house is so amazing and we love the location. We are so grateful that the Rauns allow us to bring our dogs to enjoy the lake too! This has become our family tradition and we can’t wait to come back next summer 2024! Thank you to Dave and Lori for being so accommodating. Love the Penna family ❤️

Working Retreat!

My company had a three week project in Redding and thought this retreat would be a great opportunity for the men to stay instead of typical hotel rooms for 3 weeks. My installers really enjoyed the space, home cooking and relaxing on the porch! A little fishing at the lake in the evening! Everything was outstanding, the home, the condition of everything and the hosts Dave and Lori! Would not hesitate to book this great retreat again. Thank You!

Beautiful house

This house is absolutely beautiful. It is a little dated as others have stated, but it adds to the charm. Plenty of room for everybody in our group. Very quick walk down to the lake and we enjoyed the kayaks out on the lake for multiple days. Having satellite TV was a huge plus for my family who loves sports. They even left us a bottle of margarita as a welcoming gift. I would definitely recommend this house. You won’t be sorry.

Home well stocked with amazing views and lake access

Our family rented two houses for a mini family reunion. Everyone had a great time, ages 1 to 73 years old and an array of ages in between! We all agree that this was one of the most well appointed VRBO homes we’ve ever stayed in, including anything one would need in an emergency. We all loved the layout of this home, the big windows and wrap around deck, especially the spacious master bedroom. I absolutely love that kayaks were provided as well as life vests in all sizes. The only thing we’d change is that next time we will come when the lake level is higher so that we don’t have to haul the boating gear as far up the hill when we’re finished on the water.

Small family reunion with ample space in house number 3

Writing this review for house number 3. We had more than enough room for everyone, and the house was very comfortable. The front decking was a gem. We did a lot of hanging out here as it was well shaded and plenty of chairs and a couple of tables. It was quite warm so only a couple people use the jacuzzi but commented that it was clean and well kept. It is a two story so the very top room is a loft with open air which made this room a little hot.The air conditioning doesn't work as well up there. But all in all was still comfortable. Like I said I think it was 102 the second day we were there. Which brings us all down to the lake for happy memories. The terrain is a little sloped all around so be aware of this especially if you have small children. We had one. A bit rocky but the benefit of having rocks over sand is that you don't have a lot of muck being stirred up so I did appreciate that. It kept the water clear and nice for swimming. Had a great time and had great hosts. Thank you! Response time for email questions was quick as well. Great family reunion at Shasta Lake House number 3.:-)

Loved everything about our Stay! Felt like being home

This place feels like if I had a lake house that it should be mine! Feels like home and so comfortable on all levels. Enjoyed being right on the lake and the views are wonderful. Having the paddle boards as an extra was the best, just walking out the of the house revery morning and evening for a relaxing float on the lake was my favorite.

Wonderful Experience at Retreat # 3

We stayed here eight nights and the house was amazing. The home was very clean when we arrived. Well stocked with amenities including wood burning fireplace, hot tub, hammock and kayaks. We had all our meals on the outside deck, which had a beautiful view of the lake.I have rented many homes throughout my years and Lori, the host, is the best. Always got right back to me when I reached out to her. The whole process was exceptional organized and communicated in a timely manor.

Lakefront views are the best of any of the dozen or so homes we’ve stayed. Owners are very helpful.

Absolutely Amazing Stay!

Lori and Dave were incredible hosts—responsive, thoughtful, and welcoming. The cabin was absolutely immaculate and stocked with everything you could possibly need. This is by far the most impressive rental I’ve ever stayed at. The kitchen was fully equipped, which made it so easy to cook without having to improvise or bring extra gear. Communication was top-notch before, during, and even after our stay. We loved it so much, we’ve already booked our return trip!

This was an amazing property to share with family. The location is amazing. I would recommend, however, the home could use a little more deep cleaning. I would use the property again.
