Lovely mountain home w/ large deck and forest view

The house was clean and organized, had everything we needed for a two day weekend get together with families. The host was very responded to any questions we had. A lovely cozy house very spacious for 8 people on a mountain location. The backyard patio with a Mountain View was awesome for our family to have a BBQ as there are enough tables and chairs outside.

Home is beautiful and clean. Had everything we needed. Communication with the host was great. Very quiet, away from the city, up on a hill, if weather is snowing, you might need a 4x4 to get to it. Sitting on the porch in the evening was wonderful. Shasta Caverns a very close and well worth the boat ride and shuttle to the caverns.

We had a wonderful stay in Lakehead! The quiet location was perfect for some R&R. The kitchen was fully equipped and I was able to cook a nice meal every evening (bonus that there is a dishwasher). The only only hiccup was the swamp cooler needed a quick adjustment the day we got there, but the host had the issue addressed before we could even make a comment on it! We were so impressed. After that the cooler did an awesome job keeping us cool in the 95 degree heat - dare I say even a little chilly? Our littlest girl didn’t want to leave haha. We will definitely be back!

Our stay was good and here are some points for the future guests:1. Xbox was there and our teen kids enjoyed a lot.2. Dishwaser was not working and it leaked water when we used. We informed the host and he said he will take care. Luckily, turned it on when we were inside the house and so try dishwasher or washer when you are inside the property.3. The last one mile way to the house is unpaved and curvy. We had our tire flat and so please be prepared for that. It was a Saturday and we couldn't find anyone repairing the flat tire and luckily Les Schwab store is there at Redding and another place (40 miles away) and we took our car there for flat tire repair. 4.House stocked with kitchen items, soap and bed sheets.Overall, it was a pleasant stay and we enjoyed.

We stayed at this property for a week and overall enjoyed our stay. The home was clean, quiet, easy to access, and the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed the mountain views, seeing the lights from I-5 in the distance at night, and especially hearing the train whistle from afar.However, several aspects did not match the listing. The deck photos appear outdated, as the deck no longer looks like the pictures shown online. Several boards were lifting, there were a few holes, and guests should use caution when walking barefoot. The two white outdoor chairs were weathered, warped, and unstable due to stripped screws. The hammock shown in the photos was also not present.There was a newer round fire table on the deck, which made a nice gathering spot for meals and card games.The listing advertises air conditioning, but it is actually a swamp cooler. During our stay, the house became quite warm at night, even with the three portable fans provided.While the listing mentions room for boats, RVs, and other toys, much of the property is sloped. The final mile of road is steep, winding, and partially unpaved, which could make maneuvering larger trailers challenging.Overall, we enjoyed the peaceful setting, comfortable accommodations, and beautiful views, but feel the listing photos and description should be updated to better reflect the property's current condition and amenities.

The entire house was incredibly clean, and the beds were comfortable. We appreciated the quick response from the owner. There were a few things we wish we would have known ahead of time. The oven wasn't working properly (before we arrived) and spent a few cold nights because we didn't have access to turn on the heater. Once we mentioned the heat, the owner was quick to turn it on remotely, which we appreciated. It was also a bit further out than we anticipated by the wording on the listing, which was overall fine, but not originally anticipated.

Beautiful Home near Shasta Lake

We had a great time in this home which is about a 5-minute drive from Bailey Cove. The house is very clean and well taken care of. The hosts were extremely responsive. We rented a boat from Bridge Bay which was less than a 10 minutes drive from the house.

Bait and switch ???

My family has been staying the lodge in Obrien for the last 4 years.. everbody loved it,... til this year:{{ we made and paid for reservations several months ago, and I thought everything was set. We have several members that travel a long way to get there, so they usually check in first. My daughter called me late that night and said she was told there was no reservation. The office people were of no help!!! Finally i was notified that the cabin i had re nted was in No California about 400 miles away. This was not doable, so everyone had to fend for themselves... WHAT A NIGHTMARE.!!!! I looked up the listing, saw the picture and thought, yeah, this is the Obrien lodge. Theyre almost identical. My mistake. All i can say is make double sure the properety you are renting is actually the one you want!!! We certainly won't stay there again!!!!! Totally ruined a much needed family reunion. I hate to admit, it was all my fault. I thought that the Obrien lodge would have tried to find us another open spot, as there were many, no such luck.

Lovely Home, Spectacular View

Lovely mountain home with spectacular views! The home was spotless and we had no issues staying cool with the swamp cooler. Communication was great with the owner. Internet worked great for being up in the mountains. We hope to return soon!

The property is amazing. The house is lovely. We love the view and panorama windows. The deck is amazing. The only problem, there is no central AC, While we arrived, there was 88 Degree inside of the house. The cooling system was not able to cool the house down for 24 hours. The first night was Difficult for us to sleep it was 84 during the night. Probably the best time to go to that area in the spring or fall. But property is amazing.

We really like the place

We enjoyed our time in this house, the house has all the essential you need, really clean in the inside, and the view is incredible. The only thing is that the neighbor is not a dog friendly, we bring our dog, she is a beagle and like most of the dogs she barks at strangers when I came outside to put her in so she doesn’t bother the neighbor, the neighbor started yelling at me to shut my dog or she will do it or to use a bark collar. I was surprised and stay quiet because I have never had an experience like that after the event I wasn’t comfortable leaving my dog out. Just be aware if you are planning to take your dog there is a not pet friendly neighbor. Other than that we enjoyed our time there.

Mixed feelings...

The original post on VRBO listed a Hot Tub at the property, told everyone to bring their suits....no Hot Tub! Owner apologized with no explanation as to why no Hot Tub and gave me a $100 refund. When we arrived the refrigerator was not working. Repairman came at 8:00 am the next morning only to declare bad compressor, can't get new part for a week. Owner wanted us to stay home the next day in order for a new fridge to be delivered, we declined as it was our last day there....had to purchase another cooler and ice bags for 3 days....not very convenient. Otherwise the place was nice and secluded.

Comfortable

Cabin was extremely clean and had everything needed. They even included shampoo and body wash and left a lovely box of chocolate’s. All the cabinets were labeled with the contents which we found super helpful. The owners were excellent in regard to communication and very helpful. Didn’t expect neighbors to be quite as close as they were, the ones below stayed up all night talking. They weren’t extremely loud but we were still able to hear them.

Beautiful property but...

This is a great property and we did enjoy our stay. However after booking, you are told there's a mile of unpaved road to the house. Could not take the car we had planned on and glad we didn't. this place is kept very skinny. Water heater turned down so you can't get hot water.on the shower. Only one trash bag in kitchen available. Bring extra toilet paper and paper towels. If it was there I couldn't find it. Most of the house is labeled clearly and the included coffee and maker was a great surprise. Lastly if your going to have a wine and cheese board labled wouldn't you think there's a wine opener? Since you're in the middle of nowhere. Would have bought one in town if I knew. Overall a nice house in a great area
