A favorite for families

Families highlight the well-stocked kitchen, kids' loft with books and games, and on-site animals
Our 300 acre working ranch is an ideal place for Lassen National Park road-trippers to enjoy a comfortable "home away from home," or, visitors looking to experience life away from the city. Our upscale log cabin has everything you need for an easy, adventure-filled stay. Enjoy 4 miles of our private trails near Battle Creek (native trout fishing possible), or fish our 2-acre pond with the kids. Shasta County Permit STR22-0016. *Strict dog rules apply*

The space
Our land is beautiful, wild, remote and actively being farmed. Guests will see and hear the sounds of a working farm including equipment, animals, and livestock guardian dogs protecting the herd.

Our home has the following spaces:

--1 bedroom (downstairs, queen bed)

--Upstairs open loft/playroom/workspace (futon couch that folds into a queen bed, a king bed, and two reading nooks that could be used for toddler or child beds; called the "living room 2" in the listing)

Per Shasta County rules, we can host a max of 3 adults and 3 children; feel free to ask us about your particular needs.

We provide all linens, towels, and kitchen basics. Guests need to provide their own food and beverages, but we provide spices, cooking oils, a coffee maker, and a complete kitchen with cookware. The property is very remote, 20 minutes from the nearest town and gas. There is a small restaurant with good hot food, coffee, beer, local wine, frozen items like pizza, and baked goods. We can suggest local bakers and veggie/egg farms who will deliver custom orders to you when in season!

DOG RULES: Guest dogs may be accommodated after we discuss and agree to our dog safety rules. This is a working farm. Our livestock guardian dogs patrol around the cabin and we cannot permit any interaction between your dog and ours. It is the guest's responsibility to prevent interactions between your pet and our dogs (remain at least 200 feet away from the fence line and any dog you see), as well as livestock such as cattle which may be immediately outside your cabin. Our dogs are trained to chase off and defend against unfamiliar animals, including other dogs. If we can accommodate your dog, he must stay on a non-retractable leash outdoors for its safety and must be securely locked in a crate (guest to provide) if you leave the animal alone in the home. Please ask us about your dog before booking and we are happy to discuss.

We have Starlink internet at the cabin. We have an Amazon firestick that you are welcome to use to log into your video streaming accounts and about 150 DVDs.

We're happy to show you around the property or let you explore on your own. Please see information in our listing about safety regarding animals, children, and natural hazards including wild animals that are a part of California farm life. Guests assume all risks of natural hazards while on our property.

Note: Our California climate varies from cold, rainy winters to hot, dry summers. In summer, we do get temperatures at or above 100 degrees, and in winter, below freezing. We recommend that you check the weather the day before your arrival.

**We do not have a BBQ grill or fireplace for guests due to extreme fire danger**

Guest access
You will have full access to your entire private cabin, and you are welcome to use the trails on our adjacent large property. This includes marked trails, our private pond and trails to Battle Creek. Guests should ALWAYS walk in pairs and small children should never be alone outside due to wild animals such as wolves, mountain lions, bears, coyotes and snakes.

**Please do not enter any livestock paddocks without your hosts or their permission for biosecurity and safety reasons**

Sorry, no guest ATVs or motorized bikes permitted on our trails.

Other things to note

Neighborhood highlights

Manton is a rural community located 30 minutes from the North entrance to Mt. Lassen National Park (Manzanita Lake) and 50 minutes from the South entrance (Mineral, CA). The town is full of family farms, but no services (closest gas and food are in Shingletown - 15 minutes away - where you can pick up a pizza, ice cream, and most groceries you will need). Expect a true farm stay with the sights - and sounds - of farming and agricultural life. We recommend that you stock up groceries and get a full tank of gas in Red Bluff (if visiting from the South) or Redding, Palo Cedro, or Shingletown (if visiting from the North).
