Shasta Cascade Rentals By Owner
Northern California’s Shasta Cascade is an outdoor adventure enthusiast’s paradise. Covering 20 percent of California in an area roughly the size of Ohio, each season in the Shasta Cascade region brings new adventure and attractions both indoors and out. When the weather is warm, Lake Shasta is the perfect spot for boating, skiing, fishing and other water sports. Mount Shasta and Mount Lassen are home to downhill ski runs and cross country trails during winter and biking, hiking, mountaineering and caving in warmer weather and throughout the year.
The seven national forests and eight national and state parks in the Shasta Cascade are home to a number of lakes, rivers and waterfalls. Offering California’s best fly fishing and ample space for hunting, birding and wildlife observation, the region is home to a variety of animals including the bald eagle, osprey, falcons, mountain lions, bobcats, black bears and black tailed deer. Thanks to the large geographic area and typically smaller crowds, the Shasta Cascade region affords visitors plenty of space for exploration and solitude.
But a Shasta resort vacation is about more than just outdoor adventure. Visitors can take advantage of beautiful golf courses, arts and cultural opportunities including a plethora of museums featuring exhibits on the history of the area and even spend a day touring Alpen Cellars winery and vineyard.
Looking for a more tame adventure? Then a guided tour through the Lake Shasta caverns may be in order. Tours include a boat ride where visitors enjoy the beautiful scenery while learning about the history and inhabitants of the area, a motorcoach tour and finally a guided one-hour walking tour of the caverns.
No matter the time of year, the Shasta Cascade region of California offers an activity to satisfy almost any traveler.
