Vintage Vibes Cottage in Fairy Forest
Our stay at Shasta Valley was a mixed bag, but it had its charms. The house itself is an older gem, full of character with hardwood floors and vintage decor that gives it a cozy, lived-in feel. However, it’s clear the place hasn’t been maintained as well as it could be. It’s not uninhabitable by any means, but if you’re expecting modern polish, this isn’t it.Where this rental shines is the property itself. Tucked away in a lush, rainforest-like setting, the surrounding woods are breathtaking. Towering trees, thick ferns, and a chorus of birds made it feel like stepping into a nature documentary-perfect for unwinding. There’s a small creek nearby that’s great for a peaceful walk, though the path could use some clearing to avoid tripping over roots. The porch and lawns were our favorite spots to sip coffee and soak in the greenery. Drinks outside at dusk watching fireflies late into the evening was magical. Also appreciated the smart tv which made it easy to access our streaming accounts and watch our usual shows at night.The host was responsive and friendly and the house is easy to navigate as far as instructions and amenities. It’s not a luxury stay, but if you’re after a rustic escape and don’t mind a few imperfections, Shasta Valley’s wild, serene setting makes it worth considering. Just bring some patience for the house itself.
