Bechelli

"I checked into this hotel on Friday and was completely appalled by the condition of the room. First, the air conditioning was not working, which made the room extremely uncomfortable. The bed was just as bad—the linens were visibly dirty, and the mattress underneath was completely stained. To make matters worse, there wasn't even a television in the room because it had apparently been stolen. Between the severe lack of basic cleanliness, broken amenities, and obvious security issues, this was a...

Top Lakehead Hotel Reviews

Americana Modern Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the vibe here, and the modern bathroom, the great coffee, and the inspiring pictures of waterfalls. Everyone was friendly!!"

Win-River Resort & Casino

8/10 Good

"We were traveling from California to Washington in a 16ft. Penske truck and stayed here for a night. Arriving at 9pm a Casino allowed us to have dinner and drinks and go right back to the room to sleep and get up and out early the next morning. The wings and chicken quesadilla were delicious and the drinks weren't strong but hit the spot. Since they allow smoking on the property, there were air purifiers everywhere, but they worked. Our room was comfortable and quiet. The staff was friendly, and as we had to park at the RV lot in our oversized vehicle, they shuttled us back and forth with valet service."

Lakeshore Resort

8/10 Good

"We never saw anyone that worked their but the key was left for us with clear and easy instructions on how to get into our cabin. The cabin was definitely clean and tidy. It did have a kitchenet and bathroom, the bed was a queen and everything was clean. But the cabins are very old and the floors move. They move so much that the toilet rocked when you sat on it. We did pretty much just pass through and the nigh was beautiful and quiet but like I said we never saw an employee and the canib was a bit iffy. But for the price I say it was ok."

Treehouse · Shasta A Frame Cabin with a View

10/10 Excellent

"If you want a quiet getaway in the trees then you have found your cabin! I cannot describe in 1500 characters how perfect this place was. Incredibly cute and photogenic cabin, beautiful views, absolutely no noise besides nature, and the bed COMFY! Great for couples or small friend group. Even betterdog friendly!"

Foxfell At Shasta Lake: "Stunning Views" • "Very Private" • "Coziest Beds"

10/10 Excellent

"Stunning views inside and out! This home was a perfect serene getaway for our family of 5. It was comfortable and had everything we needed. Lovely outdoor area for stargazing and enjoying the summer morning. Gorgeous sunset views from the living room and dining areas. Wonderful, peaceful place."

Private luxury custom Lodge with the best view of Lake Shasta and Shasta Caverns

10/10 Excellent

"It's a beautiful house with a spectacular view. We were 3 aunties and 2 nieces and were easily accommodated in the 4 bedrooms, which have multiple beds. We like to cook together and were grateful that the kitchen is well-appointed, with drawers full of utensils (the dishwasher is the quietest I've ever known). The temperature was in the 100s when we were there, but the house is comfortably air conditioned, and it was possible to sit on the wrap-around deck in the early morning, drinking coffee and gazing at the lake. We ate dinner out there most evenings, too. We took advantage of the house's proximity to Holiday Harbor to rent a boat for the afternoon and enjoy the lake. Lorinne, our host, was very responsive to our questions both before and during our stay. It was a perfect vacation for us and we can't recommend the house highly enough."
