The house is very quaint , it is very full of interesting Knick knacks. After an original struggle on getting the AC units hooked up and vented we had a very nice visit. The back yard was great for visiting and hanging out. Mccloud is a cute town with beautiful scenery around it.

Beautiful Home with Great Amenities

We stayed for a couple nights, and the host was very easy to communicate with. It was a great spot to meet friends with a nice backyard area and it is a short walk to town. Parking is convenient and views of Mt. Shasta are stunning. I would definitely stay here again next time we make the trip to McCloud!

Cute older home

Overall we had a nice stay at the house. Do be prepared that it is an older home so there are some things that are a little quirky about it. The beds were comfortable and it was clean.

This home was perfect for our stay in McCloud. Plenty of everything for cooking at home and sitting outside at the fire pit was great family time. Walking distance to everything in town.

mini vacation in McCloud

This home was very clean and neat. We found it equipped with every thing we could possibly need for our stay. It was just a step out the back door and across the street to our event at the Mercantile. We will be back!

Comfortable and homey

We spent 3 nights in this beautiful home during a major atmospheric storm. Unfortunately we were not able to do all the outdoor stuff we had planned but luckily we were able to comfortably relax, cook, sleep, play games, watch TV in this very cute house. We loved the decorations and antique furniture. We had a very nice stay.

Charming and comfortable

My husband and I enjoyed our annual trip to McCloud and this sweet home. A view of Mt Shasta out back was a nice bonus. The home was stocked with kitchen tools needed to make cooking simple. Close walk to downtown, very peaceful, and the owner was quick to reply to questions and even allowed us to arrive early. Very reasonably priced for offering so many beds and large, homey space. Loved it!

McCloud memories

Our stay was very nice. The location was perfect. The house was comfortable except at night the bedrooms were warm would have been nice to have fans in the rooms. Also the shower nozzle it would be nice to have had a removable handle. Overall it was a wonderful stay. We enjoyed our time in McCloud.

Charming Comfortable Home

This house was even nicer than pictured in the photos. The connected living room and dining room created a nice big open space to eat and hang out. The beds were very comfortable and the house contained everything we needed. The location is wonderful. You can easily walk to all the businesses in McCloud. And it is an easy drive to all the best local hiking. I highly recommend this property.

Chasing Waterfalls in NorCa

The house is charming and comfortable. It was very neat and clean. We used it as our “base camp” and were able to visit 8 waterfalls on our trip. The host was easy to work with and left clear instructions regarding the house. The house was chocked full of beautiful antiques and cool knick knacks which added to the charm and homey feeling. We would stay here again and will recommend it to our friends.

A nice little visit home

Very nice and cozy place to call home for a few days. Well stocked kitchen (in terms of pots and pans, plates, flatware, etc.) Beautiful, large backyard that we did get any use of because it was winter, but would be lovely in the summer. Thanks!
