This place has been in suspended animation since the 70s but in the best way. I could imagine families parking their trucks with boats in tow to spend a night or two and then head to the lake back when the Shasta waterline was full. And like they were in the time capsule as well, the locals still show up for live music and drinks (most likely covers of Eagles songs). It’s got the charm of 80s movies set in the PNW but it’s not trying to. The area around the property is a little sketch at night and it’s surrounded by a mall with Darden chain restaurants. But the hotel grounds are actually pretty nice. The staff were great too.

Strange layout of property. Sort of like “you can’t get there from here”! Some updating is needed, property starting to age. Electronic lock to hallway from parking lot was inoperable. Reported to front desk, was repaired the next morning. Most likely battery replacement. Overall it was a nice stay and we would stay if we pass through Redding again.

Our family stayed here for two nights. We had a nice large 2 queen bed room which was nice and spacious for our family of 5. The pool was great and my kids enjoyed swimming there. I most likely will not stay here again because it did feel a little dingy due to the age of the hotel and although the rooms are “no smoking” now you can still smell the lingering odor. It wasn’t enough to be a constant nuisance but it was definitely noticeable upon arrival when you walked into the hallways or rooms.

Good for a short stay

We really liked this hotel. Good price---would have given 5 stars if it included breakfast. Definitely dated--but very clean. Only stayed one night. The room they gave us was seemed very isolated and the glass door opened up to the parking lot. I would have loved a spot that opened up to the courtyard.
