The unit is so beautiful, spacious, and spotlessly clean; the little kitchenette is a plus; and a jet tub is simply amazing; the surroundings are so serene and calm; wake up in the forest with door delivered breakfast every morning made us feel so pampered; just sitting on the porch enjoying morning tea and breakfast is already like a vacation. We will definitely come back here when we’re in the Redding area.

This place is a great little gem. It's convenient to the freeway and the rooms are clean and cozy. It sits alone in the trees above the lake. The dinner food (Indian) was great and the breakfast (delivered to your room) surprisingly good for a lower priced hotel. The only downside is the train and traffic sounds, but since the rooms are so well insulated you barely hear them from in the room.

What a delightful surprise. Not knowing anything about this place I booked it on a glance at the listing. A cute little BNB with clean rooms and friendly staff. A little close to the freeway so expect background road noise, but that comes with ease of access. Check in was easy, price was great. Will stay again next time I drive down i5.
