This property is really close to the Mt Shasta Ski Park which makes it ideal for ski trips with kids or with friends. While my soccer mom days are in the rear view mirror, this property would also be a good choice if you're travelling for sports (with your kids). I travelled with 2 friends and stayed in a double queen room because the suites were all booked. We loved soaking in the hot tub after 2 days of skiing, and enjoyed fabulous sunsets. The free breakie was on par with what you get at extra charge at the chain hotels like Best Western - toast, cereal, yogurt, fresh fruit & juice, danish, coffee, cocoa and hot tea. Even better, they had some suprising touches that have convinced me to stay here again, like a communal shared kitchen with basic utensils that we used to make dinner, because we were just too tired to drive into Shasta or elsewhere. The towels were thick and much better quality than I expected and I appreciated the use of paper goods rather than styrofoam. The decor is a bit dated but who cares when you're just staying there to sleep after a fun day outdoors??? Best tip ever from a family friend who regularly stays here.
