Come and Get your Love! Sleep on a real Waterbed! Only minutes from Mt. Shasta.

This unique vacation home is made for people who love to hike, ski, and explore the outdoors. It is located in the Northern California town of Dunsmuir, California. Only minutes away from Mt. Shasta. This quirky vacation home is near the downtown district and within easy walking distance to local shops and restaurants. We are 420 friendly and provide guests with complimentary a pre-roll upon arrival.

Inside this 100 year old historic home you will find a restored vintage stereo system complete with vinyl records, CD’s and cassettes of classic rock and 90’s era favorites. Around the corner from Hiker’s Haven is a music store selling records and cassette tapes so you can always find even more of your favorite songs.

Enjoy the cocktail table video game console stocked with over 400 classic arcade games like Frogger, Donkey Kong, and Ms. Pac-Man. Play as much as you want for FREE!

In the bedroom you’ll find a modern day queen-sized waveless waterbed with satin sheets and blackout curtains for day sleepers. It has a 4 drawer dresser and large closet for extended stays.

The living room has a large smart tv, a modern wood stove for colder nights, and a pull-out sofa bed with flannel sheets for additional guests. The coffee table surface lifts to accommodate workers and writers who may use a laptop computer. Free WiFi is provided throughout the house and backyard.

The kitchen is fully stocked with utensils and appliances ready to cook your own meals, and comes with a pub style dining table with a pull-down lamp for gatherings with friends to eat and drink, play board games, and construct jigsaw puzzles.

A laundry room has a washer, dryer, and ironing board for your use.

We also provide a full sized massage table and percussive massage machine to massage fellow guests. And we also provide a list of local massage therapists you can book by appointment ready to come to this location.

Outside in the very private backyard is a propane bbq, a dining table, and a staircase which leads to the Main Street. You’ll find a brewery/restaurant, pizza parlor, grocery store, library, and post office within a few minutes walk. The yard also has a clothesline to dry blankets and sleeping bags and is fenced to contain small and medium sized dogs inside. We are pet friendly and love dogs (and cats!).

The residence is across from the Sacramento River and a rail yard. Trains chug along across the river and sometimes stop to add extra train cars. An Amtrak station is only a block away for train traveling friends and guests.

If you enjoy trout fishing we provide 3 ready to go fishing poles, a stocked tackle box, a fishing vest, net, waders and little portable fishing chairs. Dunsmuir is famous for its trout fishing and you can walk or drive to a variety of perfect fishing holes along the river to fish or just relax.

Or if you prefer biking or kayaking we provide 2 mountain bikes for your use and an inflatable 2 person kayak and 2 paddles and life vests. It’s easy to transport this sturdy inflatable kayak in a small car and inflate it on location at the many local lakes nearby with the included pump. We also provide backpacks for hikers to use during their stay at Hiker’s Haven.

Within a 10 mile drive north is beautiful Lake Siskiyou which has swimming, fishing, hiking, kayaking, paddle boats for rent, camping, and an 18 hole golf course. The nearby City of Mt. Shasta has restaurants and mountain and rock climbing opportunities on 14,000 foot tall Mt. Shasta. The Mt. Shasta Ski Park and Nordic Center is only 20 minutes away from Hiker’s Haven and provides downhill skiing/snowboarding and also groomed trails for x-country skiing.

Only 5 miles south down I-5 is Castle Crags State Park with more fishing, swimming, hiking, and wildlife viewing opportunities.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a video-game console is provided for your entertainment.

room for improvement
We had an okay stay; there were some issues however, that made it less than ideal. The refrigerator seemed to be breaking down— it was very noisy and barely cooled down our perishables. The kitchen had ants and the handsoaps were watered down to the point of being useless. The tub also needed to be scrubbed. We did enjoy a couple of the games and informative hiking books provided. There clearly was an effort to make guests feel comfortable in some areas, but it would have been nice if it was cleaner overall and had a more functional kitchen, especially if you want to cook.

Retro Relaxing Stay!
We loved our stay with Hiker's Haven! It's exactly as described with retro feel, waterbed, record player, and a bit of hipster vibe. I found the Redbone Record and played "Come on get Your Love" on the record player. I loved the charm, and my 16 year old daughter had me playing board games. Truly a fond experience. Thank you!

Comfortable, fun space
The house was comfortable and we enjoyed the video game table and the wide variety of interesting books and music. I wouldn't call the waterbed waveless (we've had 2 waterbeds), and we found this one a bit sloshy. Used the wood stove heater for 2 days but I'm sensitive to smoke so we used the electric heater for the last 2 days. The town of Dunsmuir didn't offer much in the way of food or entertainment. Most of the restaurants we had researched prior to our visit were no longer open for business. We wound up driving to Mt. Shasta everyday for food and entertainment and really enjoyed the food, beer and staff at Pipeline Craft Taps and were able to sit outside with our dog.

Cute and Quirky
Heather and I totally loved staying at the Hikers Haven. Check in was easy and instructions about wifi, recycling/trash, tv streaming, fireplace, ect. were easy to find and understand. The house is decorated with raven, rabbit, and clock themes which we liked. The stereo was top notch and had great sound for the classic rock and 90s grunge albums that were there. It is across the street from an active train yard but it didn't bother us at all. We are planning to visit again in the fall. Thank you Dena and Leslie❤️

Wonderful fun experience
Great for those who like old classic board games and arcade games, puzzles, and just want a comfortable place to relax. There is a train that comes through a few times a day very close, which was loud, but was also just another novelty of this property. It was a truly incredible stay and we will be back! :)

Quirky and cozy
We really enjoyed our stay at this cute and cozy place. Owners communicated with us to ensure they knew our arrival time so they could get the stove going and warm the place up! The waterbed was a unique experience, nice and warm and quite comfortable. Playing arcade games brought back fun memories. Had cream in the fridge for our morning coffee. Highly recommend if you are passing through!

The house is conveniently located to several restaurants, a small grocery store and a local brew pub. The kitchen is well-stocked and the house is uniquely decorated. We enjoyed listening to music on the turntable, and played a few board games together. A huge bonus was the Osprey nest across the street with a baby s it’s parents. Loved hearing them call to one another! We enjoyed a relaxing visit. Great Thrift store around the corner!!

A Week In Waterfall Wonderland
My girlfriend and I stayed at Dena's place for a little over a week and it was fantastic. We loved being so close to town, walking around, and visiting all the shops. We talked and got to know a number of the locals. We were also super close to tons of amazing hikes! In the evenings we would put on some music and play arcade games for a few hours. Early in our stay, our anxious pup unfortunately damaged their front door. Leslie was super responsive and came over to look at it right away. She asked if a crate would help us enjoy the trip more as we could leave more frequently, and when we agreed, she brought one over right away. Overall, we would absolutely come back and stay at Dena's place again.

A fabulous Getaway away from the hustle and bustle
We loved our stay at this house. Everything was neatly arranged in the kitchen for our convenience from coffee station to spices to napkins. The LP player and the retro gaming station were nice touches. Backyard was nice to hang out in. The train does come through a few times, but after a bit you get used to it. Dena and Leslie are super helpful hosts.

My stay was for work but, turns out this House is a great place to stay while exploring the surrounding Northern California Cascade range or fishing the upper Sacramento River. It is conveniently located close to restaurants and shops in downtown. Also If you love trains you will love this rock Castle nestled into the side hill of this friendly town. House is filled with personality and you can tell was made to share with allot of love. Dena was an excellent host and I would not hesitate to stay here again.
