About this property
500 Acre Ranch on the Foot of Mount Shasta.
500 Acres of beautiful Solitude. It’s like being in a National Park without tourists. We have Water, water, water, every where water. Our Creek is Spring fed and runs through the center of the property for 1 3/4 miles. Wild Trout abound in the crystal clear water. Our Well water is delicious and abundant. Take long showers and enjoy the luxury of super clean, clear water. Once there, You will feel like you own your own ranch in the heart of the Old West.
This rental is a beautiful, unique and limited opportunity. Only one family or group will be able to take advantage of this offer at a time. It is like a Guest Ranch, but you have the place to yourself with solitude and privacy in a beautiful natural setting. Photographs just can not do it justice. There are spectacular views in all directions.
The ranch is in the heart of the Old West with numerous rivers and lakes nearby. It is 10 minutes North of downtown Mt. Shasta and 25 minutes South of Yreka. The McCloud River: 45 minutes, The Upper Sacramento: 15 minutes, The Klamath (45 min.), the Trinity River (45 min.),the Pit River and Hat Creek (about one hour). Our on-site ponds abound in trout. If you ever dreamed of helping your child catch a trout, this is the place to make real, that fantasy! The fishing is usually unsurpassed. To protect and preserve the Trout, only Barbless Flys are allowed in the ponds. It's a Catch and Release venue.
While extremely private, the ranch is less than five minutes from the city of Weed and 10 minutes from Mount Shasta City. Interstate 5 is 5 minutes away and the Weed airport is 10 minutes away.
The City of Weed has Tesla Super Chargers and the Ranch has Outdoor 240 Volt (14-50 NEMA fifty Amp) and 120 Volt Sockets for charging your Electric Vehicle.
If you want a secluded, and beautiful home base from which to explore Northern California and Southern Oregon this is an excellent venue.
The house lies at the end of a mile long, unpaved private country road. This secluded mountain site provides spectacular 360 degree views. I often sit outside with a cup of tea or a cold drink and watch the views and wildlife. Time seems to stand still. If you are an artist or bird watcher you will be captivated. The lighting is fantastic.
A small horse and cattle operation is run by a local cowboy who was also an officer of the law in town. His occasional presence on the range will help guard your privacy and will add a layer of security. Tim (ex Siskiyou County Sheriff) knows the area well and can provide excellent information about the regions extensive recreational opportunities.
There is one main bathroom and a Half Bath in the laundry room area.
With all of the water around, it is amazing that there are no Mosquitoes or other biting insects to speak of. Having stayed at places where bug spray was a necessity, I believe this is an issue every vacationer should look into before committing to a rental property. there is NO WiFi but cell phone reception is excellent for all Smart Phones and Tablets etc.
Tim, the Ranch Manager and Kelly, the House Keeper work hard to make your experience enjoyable. Please consider leaving them a Tip to express your appreciation.
Thank you, Bill Broadhead Owner

We all had another fantastic peaceful week at the Broadhead Ranch. Everything was just what the doctor ordered. Beautiful surroundings, great weather, and a cozy home that we all enjoyed. We will definitely be back. Many thanks to Cowboy Tim. Always there with a wave and a smile and a good story or two.
We all enjoyed our stay! The are has so much to offer but you don’t even need to leave the property, it has everything, the views, water, trees, fish, cows, horses and a great caretaker!
Property was beautiful. Lower pond was too hard to fish, as it was surrounded by cattails. Upper pond was very easy to fish. Views were incredible. We were very fortunate that all 3 nights no clouds or moon and we sat out and looked at the stars. Best part is we saw the Milky Way every night. Wildlife we saw deer, Skunk and fox. We will be back probably in warmer weather. : )
Beautiful lands with views of Mt Shasta and surrounding areas. Enjoyed meandering around the meadows and by the ponds with our dog, and watching the cattle out back through the kitchen window. Comfortable house with board games and a nicely equipped kitchen; easy communication with the owner. Would definitely stay again.
We totally enjoyed our family getaway at this ranch house & acres. The house had everything we needed, including great views and quiet. We took many enjoyable walks to the ponds, the creek, and up the hill for a great view of the area and Mount Shasta. Many good memories were created!
We loved the ranch. It was so beautiful and quiet. My son in law enjoyed fishing the ponds while my other SIL and I went up to Mt Shasta and did some snowmobiling. The host was a great communicator as well. The dogs enjoyed running around the ranch as well. I would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful property and a working cattle ranch. Took the family and 2 grandkids. Fishing was a bit difficult, but lots of other fishing spots close by. We liked feeding the horses carrots. Cows were great to see all around. Ranch manager Tim was really helpful with tips. Nice ranch to hike all over.
If you want to slow down and get away this is your place. A back to the land feeling sets in and grows on you. There's horses that roam freely, cows, fields, water and majestic mountains. The house is old rustic, full of cowboy art. There is only one bathroom.
We LOVED this property, the ranch house is very comfortable and has everything you need. Our host Bill was great, he had great suggestions for activities and sight seeing. We enjoyed watching the 2 horses and the cattle meandering in the meadows just outside the ranch house. My wife and I with our 2 beagles spent 5 great days here, much of our time was spent on the ranch hiking and exploring the meadows, creeks, ponds and forests FANTASTIC VIEWS in every direction. There is so much to do in the area near the ranch, we made 2 trips to the end of the road up Mt Shasta (Old Ski Bowl trailhead). Castle lake was lovely and the McCloud River falls area is very beautiful, GREAT waterfalls, magical. We're planning our next stay now.Keith & Karla L
Amazingly peaceful 500 acres with view of Mt Shasta
This property gave me the privacy and seclusion on 500 acres to really get in touch with nature, while enjoying amazing views of rolling hills and mountains. The home is spacious and has a quaint country ranch feel to it. I watched horses and cows grazing in the back, while sipping my coffee in the morning next to a beautiful pond by the house out front.
This land is truly magical, and I enjoyed every moment of my stay here.
The owner was also a pleasure to work with and was always available to answer any questions that I had.
I look forward to staying here again in the future.
Part of me wants to keep what am AMAZING place this was to myself to preserve the awesomeness of this spot.
The information from the property manager prior to getting there was outstanding. It was chalk full of ideas and had all the information you could want and more.
The location was a mile down a dirt road (bumpy and rocky) on a ranch (bring good footwear to walk around the property). There were beautiful views outside each of the windows in the home. The house was clean and cozy, with all the amenities you could want at a home away from home, with plenty of kitchen utensils pans, and even some extra spices. The beds were very cozy! Oh there is basically one bathroom, with an extra toilet in the laundry room with only a wall for privacy around it. This wasn't a problem, and I'm glad there was an extra facility to use (handy of there's a small group). There's a lovely wood stove (not necessary during summer) and the temp in the home was perfect... Bring charcoal briquettes if you want to BBQ for the outside grill.
Wildflowers and water features around make for a soothing atmosphere - and we would go out on the front lawn in the morning to meditate- where we were visited by a jackrabbit in the morning, with cows and horses roaming around.
I can't think of one critique or downside to our stay here.(Actually you may want to bring big spray during summer). I'm so grateful this property is available for others to use and can't wait for the opportunity to return!

A little TLC needed
You drive through burn scar to get to the property but once through it you have beautiful views and it's very quiet. The accommodations were adequate. We thought it odd that there was a working toilet in the laundry room but no door nor a working sink. The best views are seen from the kitchen sink window. We thought how nice it would be to be able to sit on that side of the house and enjoy the views. Really amazing.The outside of the house and the property need TLC. There were cobwebs bordering every window & heavy in the patio, there was what looked to be window glass, an old wall heater cover, and wood pallets laying on the west side of the house which could be seen from the kitchen window. The pond pictured in the listing is over grown with cattails; you can't reach the pond unless you were to push through the thick cattails. There is no pathway to the large pond but we forged our own path through the star thistle and dry grass and found the 2 person kayak (no life vests) and picnic table. The stream that runs through the property is overgrown with blackberries (which are delicious) but the best way to get to the stream/creek is by the small pond by the "tiny house". The blackberry vines are not as thick there so you can get to the water if you cut a few vines. The small pond is more accessible than the large pond but fishing would still be challenging there. The pictures are not quite up to date with current conditions, but it is beautiful.
Fantastic week on the Ranch. We will definitely keep returning every chance we get. Cowboy Tim is a delight…very friendly and helpful and has great stories to share.
This is the perfect place for a large family group that want to be totally removed from the lights and noise of the city. It's an older farmhouse that's been updated with some very nice appointments. Our favorite, and most unexpected thing was the herd of cows grazing behind the house. They were part of a fantastic view of the mountain from the kitchen window where we tended to gather. We all loved it,
Best kept secret in Mount Shasta area! Property well-kept, clean, and comfortable. Convenient central location to various outdoor activities outlined by gracious host. Enjoyed weekend!
What a magical week we had at Broadhead Trout Ranch. From the privacy of having the entire 500 acres to yourself, to the bubbling brook surrounded by wildflowers and fresh mint, you will feel like you have stepped into a different world. If your soul needs peace, this is the place to be. Enjoy qu

This place was so nice and relaxing! No neighbors. Gorgeous views! We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay! It was a decent farm house that accommodated our family nicely! We didnt even explore the whole property, and will definitely be back! We miss it already!!
The entry gate area was bleak, having been decimated by a fire a year prior, but once you got down the road the scene changed dramatically, with a lovely secluded ranch sitting above acres of meadows, some w cattle, some w hoses, and several ponds, there are beautiful views of the mountains to the west, and Mt Shasta to the south. I used it as a convenient access for day trips into the mountains, some still w snow, and scenic lakes with wildfl.
We really loved our stay at the ranch. The privacy, activities, and fresh air was a perfect recipe for our family and dog. Our dog was miserable when we got back...he loved it up there so much! Our daughters loved petting the horses and watching the cattle...and we enjoyed walking all over the ranch. Will be back!
