Then when we arrived she gave us a private tour of our darling, clean, comfortable cabin. She was just as friendly and lovely in person. There wasn't a thing missing in this cabin. All kitchen, bathroom, and bedding supplies were provided. The pool is BIG and there is tons of comfortable pool seating. The game room and other outdoor games were highly entertaining for kids and adults. The outdoor barbecue and community dining area are big and very functional for small or larger groups. The trash is emptied frequently and they supply large bags of ice on demand. I honestly can't wait to return to this little slice of heaven. The sad thing is that the lake is super low for people hoping to boat.

The sunrise over Lake Shasta was gorgeous. The early morning start was perfect for beating the summer heat and the wake from all the water sport boaters. Within 10-15 minutes of being on the water, and poles in for less than 5- we got our first bite. A beautiful rainbow trout! The bite was pretty consistent from there on out- Eric knew the right areas to fish & had all the equipment to get us to the depths we needed to be at. His set up on the boat is very dialed in & even with two or 3 fish on at once, he makes it easy. By lunch our family had already caught 30+ fish. We threw back a bunch of spotted bass and lost a number of large trout. At the end of the day, we went home with 26 trout (rainbow and browns) and 4 keeper sized bass. Eric kept the fun going, was enjoyable to be around and made the process so simple on us. He's even willing to help process the catch at the end of the day. 10/10 stars for Eric and his guiding service. We'd recommend a day on the lake with him to just about anyone we know- avid fisherman and newbies alike. Thanks for everything Eric!

We had a wonderful experience renting the Odyssey houseboat from Jones Valley for four days…read more Interestingly, the minor challenges we faced only highlighted the excellent service. When we discovered an issue with our initial boat, the entire crew immediately jumped into action, transferring all our belongings so we could depart in less than 30 minutes. Although we encountered other mechanical issues later, the crew was consistently swift, professional, and friendly in their response. A couple of things to keep in mind... You are expected to bring your own food (obviously) but in addition, you need to bring your own bedding. This may not be a major issue for folks camping or bringing an RV but for those that expect a Hotel style service may need to plan better. Packing for the trip was a hassle. Wish management would consider making them available, even if it means tacking on an additional charge. The other issue has to do with going during off season. While cheaper, Sea-Doo, Kayak, etc., are available only during the peak season. If you care for a full experience, off season may not be right for you. We loved our experience and highly recommend Jones Valley for an enjoyable houseboat vacation.

Expect to take an hour to rent anything, and another hour to return and process paperwork. It's the only game in town, on the north end of the Sacramento arm, of Shasta Lake.

My family and I have been renting jet skis around the globe for years, and not once did anyone perform a post-use inspection. I have no problem with them performing a post-use inspection, but if you are going to do that, you need to also do a pre-use inspection in front of us. We were on the lake, away from debris and the shore, yet she said the jet ski sucked up something and was damaged. We were charged an additional fee for parts and labor for repairs. The thing is, if you didn't perform a pre-use inspection in front of the customer, how do we know this isn't previous damage? Do they do this to all unsuspecting customers? Who knows. Lesson learned for next time.

It was 111 degrees when we arrived, the heat slowly dissipated as the days wore on, but the AC kept us cool, even in the two loft bedrooms. The only mechanical issue we encountered was the lake water pressure, but the techs easily fixed it. The marina store had snack items (mainly ice cream treats for us) at fair prices. Our boat was fully equipped with an array of cookware and entertaining pieces, Pottery Barn dishes and quality kitchen gadgets-- even a Pampered Chef garlic press. Our hot tub was clean and fully functional. The staff was professional- Every one of them that we interacted with. I highly recommend this company!

The view was so incredible, and perfect I couldn't even believe the how breathtaking it was at sunset . We skipped many rocks and even made it into a competition which I won, then I went off and found a great stump to take pictures on and unfortunately I slipped and fell on the rocks. Caution! Many rocks here so take water shoes or something with a thick bottom! Although it was pretty funny I'm still hurting haha. We saw boats on the lake and some people off to the side having a picnic and taking a dip in the lovely, warm water. All in all this was an incredible place to stop by and visit!

My 2500th review!…read more Because they feared Bailey Cove was too shallow, my in-laws asked to pick me up at Holiday Harbor. First, they wouldn't sell me a $5 parking pass unless I knew someone who rented a boat, so luckily the last name I used "Hanson" worked. They asked "Scott Hanson?" and I'm like, yeah, sure. Second, parking was full (as one might expect on the Saturday before Memorial Day at 4pm), so we had to park in an overflow lot. This meant getting an escort to the lot and a shuttle back to the harbor AND it meant having to estimate a specific time to come back, which is hard when you're depending on a bunch of party boat people for the ride back (I'm looking at you, Scott Hanson.
