The location is perfect if you love nature and hiking. Mt. Shasta is close by, and there are so many beautiful hikes and outdoor adventures in the surrounding area. After a day of exploring, it was so nice to come back to the peaceful atmosphere of the hotel and simply relax. A beautiful getaway for anyone looking for good food, comfortable rooms, and easy access to nature. I would definitely recommend McCloud Hotel and hope to return again.

She offers a wide variety of choices accommodating to your dietary needs, while creating a flavorful and mouthwatering start to your day. And the rooms are delightful (and not under renovation), tastefully decorated, beds are comfy and the rooms are clean. My husband and I stayed there for one week and when the original room we booked was not big enough for us, Julie was most accommodating finding us another room that would suit our needs. The property is lovely and we were fortunate enough to experience a backyard concert by Hattie Craven on our last night there. It was a magical experience to sit outside with music in an enchanted forest as the setting. The owners, Julie & Dan were so helpful with any needs we had and so hospitable...felt like we stepped back in time when customer service really meant taking care of your customers every needs...we couldn't have asked for a more wonderful stay...and to top it off, it was my husband's birthday and when we got back from his birthday dinner, Julie had baked a homemade cake for us...how sweet is that! If we ever return, this is where we will stay. The personable service, friendliness of not only Julie & Dan, but any staff member was such a joy. If you really want an experience of a lifetime, this is the place to stay. PS - if you want the best homemade granola you'll ever taste, Julie's is the BEST!!! Don't leave without trying it:) PSS - the chipped paint never interfered in our stay:)

My wife and I needed a getaway from our home and again we chose (third time here) the "McCloud…read moreRiver B&B" in the 'Mother McCloud Suite'. We stayed for five days. The owners have always been very accommodating, friendly and are kind. It is a very rustic building with a lot of history behind it. This is a beautiful B&B and we love it and the ambiance here. The food that was prepared for us was outstanding and top notch. Desserts were superb and I am not a dessert person at all. The town of McCloud is also very quaint & rich in history. There is lots to do in the area such as McCloud falls (all three of them) and much more. My wife and I definitely recommend the McCloud River B&B. Go and enjoy as we have done now several times.

We did a night walk and Alexey invited us to use his telescope. The lake close by, climbing to horse ca no on mt Shasta and see McCloud waterfalls were highlights. They offered these recommendations and we were delighted. Thank you for such a memorable weekend. We will definitely go back.

We want to thank Cindy (who runs the Guest House) for a wonderful trip and stay. We went to…read moreMcCloud, on a heritage trip, as we had family who worked for the lumber company years ago. Cindy opened the Guest House to us and it was amazing. We spent every evening on the porch looking at Mt Shasta, smelling the pines and one evening watching a bear lumber down the driveway. Breakfast was served at the McCloud Hotel. We placed our order the night before and the meals were made to order, on time, a perfect portion and very delicious. Sight seeing, around the area, was really fun. We fished, played golf at the McCloud golf course, swam in the river, took drives and saw where family had lived. Cindy has pleasant staff and we enjoyed chatting with Nicole. This is an out of the way and beautiful part of California. I strongly suggest the Guest House or the McCloud Hotel.

The park was why we were there. We stayed for 5 nights. They don't even begin serving breakfast until 8:30 am. You won't get out of there until an hour later. It puts a serious dent in plans to get out and hike in the park. The first morning of our stay, breakfast was one piece of rye bread, spead with hummus and two over-easy eggs on top. Nothing else. What other surprises awaited? For the rest of our stay, we did not hang around in the morning to find out. Paid for breakfast at Lola's down the road instead. That was really good. Also - the place is lacking some motel room type amenities that you would otherwise expect to find, especially when your guests are National Park hikers. No in-room fridge or coffee maker. Housekeeping visited once during our stay. Not a bad alternative for park visitors, but little understanding and attention is being paid to the needs of their clientele.

Whenever I come to Mount Shasta, I always stay at the Stoney Brook Inn. The prices (which start at…read more$53/night for a single with shared bath or $65/night for single with private bath) have not increased since my first visit in 2003. Remarkable! A full hot and cold breakfast buffet is included in the rate, and there is a community fridge and microwave on the deck. Some of the rooms have kitchenettes - about $99 for a double. The inn is in a building built in the late 1800s and used to provide lodging for the single men who worked in this old logging town. Yes, it's got older furniture and the building is due for some maintenance, but the owner Hiromi Suzuki keeps it impeccably clean. The tap water is magical! Place a glass on the countertop and little bubbles will form on the sides of your glass. Nestle wanted to come and bottle it, but you can enjoy it for free. (All of the water in the Shasta area is vibrant and pure. The local hospital has dispensation to use tap water if there is an emergency and sterile water is unavailable. There is also a separate building called the Kiva, which is available for rent at $200/day for workshops and the like. Easily holds a group of 25 in a wooden yurt-like structure crafted with 8 walls and oriented in a geometrical alignment. Walking Eagle, a Karuk elder, maintains a sweat lodge on the property.

The hole was gorgeously decorated, fully appointed with every amenity imaginable and cozy as can be! We quickly settled in and strolled around outdoors before the sun went down, the entire area is just phenomenal! We were the only guests there so it was divinely peaceful and felt like we truly were in a little hobbit village! In the morning we were served a delicious homemade second breakfast, expertly prepared and delivered to our door! It was a completely amazing stay, can't recommend enough and will definitely be back.

The Inn at Shasta Lake was a quaint bed and breakfast located about 20 minutes outside of Redding…read more It was quiet and peaceful here. They allow pets in certain rooms which is nice if you're traveling with dogs! I enjoyed how communicative the staff were. If you needed something, you can text a number and they were on it! They advertise that you may not have service here, but we had service and they also had wifi. They had great views outside on the deck. The grounds were nicely maintained. It was very easy to get here and right off highway 5. On the other hand, being a bed and breakfast I was expecting breakfast to be a bit better tasting. Breakfast is included in your stay. They provide fruit, yogurt, granola, juice, coffee, and toast. You get to also choose one main entree served with a side of potatoes. The main entree rotates so it's different daily. Overall breakfast could definitely be improved taste wise, but it's very convenient and nice of them to do this. Another downfall was the temperature in the main lobby/ dining area. They ran it hot in there and if you needed to get ice (they don't have ice machines, so they provide buckets of ice) it was all melted. This happened twice. Minor complaints!

We booked this hotel based on it's location to the Shasta Caverns…read more Check-in was fairly simple and contactless. They send you the directions and room access code so you can go directly to your room. The layout is like a big house with a coming hallway in the center to access the dining and sitting area. But you can also access your room from the outside of the building, which was so much easier. We stayed in the HUMMINGBIRD. The layout is a little peculiar but we wanted a king bed and this was the only room available last minute. There are two big, floor to ceiling French doors on each side of the room that looked out into the courtyard. Although the view was beautiful, it was like you were on display to anyone walking from their car to their room, so we kept the curtains closed for privacy. The room had a king bed with very nice sheets and comfortable pillows. A fireplace with a TV in the center of the room. There was a table set up for 4 and a wet bar, with microwave and small refrigerator in the center of the room in front of the fireplace and TV. A sofa and two sitting chairs were at the opposite side of the long rectangular room. Again just a peculiar setup. We did a little room rearranging while we were there so we could enjoy the fireplace while laying in bed. The bathroom was amazing and included a large jacuzzi tub and huge walk-in shower. The staff was very polite and provided very thorough room and area information, including local attractions and recommended restaurants in the area. At night you fill out a breakfast menu and in the morning they bring you your breakfast in a basket. The presentation is amazing! Menu items changed daily. They also provided 24/7 coffee and tea in the lobby. The price for the room was fair and everything was super clean! We really did enjoy our stay. Definitely recommend. *Side note for the HUMMINGBIRD room. It would make more sense to have a small room modification by moving the wet bar next to the bathroom wall. Setting the bed in front of the fireplace so the TV is in front of the bed and not off to the side. OR.. have the sofa in front of the TV and fireplace. I know it's a weird shaped room, but my personal opinion is that it can be set up different to have a better flow. Regardless we still enjoyed the stay but just my two cents in that.

I stayed here in lieu of other hotels in the area since I would be attending a wedding in Redding…read more Needless to say, Yelp did not steer me wrong again! I was so happy with my bed and breakfast experience that I definitely will trust my fellow reviewers in the future. First, Janelle was super accommodating and let me check in early because I would be attending the wedding and needed to get ready. She followed up with me on text message as to my arrival time to make sure that she would be there to greet me. When I walked in, I noticed my phone number was coded to the key pad entrance to the B&B. So cool! Janelle was there to greet me and give me an envelope with my key and instructions. I went up with her to the bedroom and needless to say, was so impressed with her style and quality that she brings to her B&B. The room seemed to be flawless in the way that she spent time picking out pictures and linens. The linens were even washed in a very nice fabric softener and didn't have that normal "hotel" smell. I was able to get the Sun Dial Room, and even though it was the most expensive, it was definitely worth every penny. There was a fresh, large bottle of water in the room with chocolates. I had free wifi and a nice flat screen TV. A jacuzzi tub. And oh, did I mention.. the best, most comfortable bed that I never wanted to leave? Top it off.. breakfast in the morning makes me giddy just thinking about it. I had french toast, a vegetable frittata, potatoes, chicken/apple sausage, fresh juice and coffee. Janelle served breakfast promptly at 8:30 and I was definitely there with bells on. Everything was served family style and while eating breakfast you are able to enjoy the company of other guests, which makes breakfast that much more entertaining. For a few bucks more, stay at this bed and breakfast. Completely avoid the Howard Johnson or other chain hotel. You will not be disappointed.
