The Goat Shed is 88 sq ft of pure cozy! Like camping but within four walls, the Goat Shed has everything you need for a peaceful rural experience. Furnished with a full-size bed, an outdoor sink, basic kitchen amenities, and a shower and a camping potty, the space is perfect for the solo or duo traveler. Located about 4 miles east of I-5, it's a peaceful and safe "pit stop" for those traveling the I-5 corridor. Listen to the coyotes yip at night while you cook dinner on a propane camp stove, then wake up to coffee and a gaggle of turkeys. We are 🌈 friendly and welcome all people.
The Goat Shed has no electricity and all lighting is provided by LED rechargeable and/or solar lighting. The northern Sacramento Valley often reaches temperatures over 100* in summer, and can receive light snow in the winter, so be sure to check area temps before booking.
Located just outside of Redding, we are centrally located and have easy access to all Shasta County has to offer. Explore Lassen National Park (1 hour drive east along beautiful country roads), Whiskeytown National Recreation Area (20 min drive west), Old Shasta State Historic Park (15 min drive west), and of course, beautiful Mt. Shasta. Don't forget our numerous breweries, Turtle Bay Exploration Park, the Sacramento River, and the Sundial Bridge. Redding is also home to many hiking and biking trails. Ask your host for recommendations.

Are you ready to unplug from the world and recharge in nature? This newly built two bedroom, two bath log cabin will help you do just that. You’ll reconnect with love ones since the cabin has NO WIFI but does have a wood burning stove and miles of trails to walk on just outside of the front door. The cabin is conveniently located just minutes from the north entrance of Lassen National Park.
For entertainment, I have a TV (no cable)/DVD player with a selection of movies, board games, and reading material including a few books and magazines.
There is timber land at the back of the property with plenty of trails to walk or ride a mountain bike (if you bring one). Lassen National Park is a short drive away. Also nearby is lake McCumber.
I have a wood burning stove inside that you can use for a fire.
Absolutely NO FIRES outside. There is a fire ban in effect, thank you for your cooperation and understanding. I have a propane BBQ outside that you can use, along with a picnic bench and other outside seating.
I will provide a selection of tea, hot coco, coffee and oatmeal to get your day started. Be sure to bring food with you since the nearest grocery story is about 9 miles away.
I will provide a basket of firewood to use during your stay, but it's a good idea to bring extra since it will go fast.
Because you're in the forest, there is limited cell reception so please plan accordingly. I've found that Verizon has some signal while AT&T has none. Since it's meant to get away from it all, not having cell service might be a good thing. :)
The master bedroom is on the entire loft floor so there isn't a lock or door that separates the main area downstairs. Just so you're aware. There is a door and lock on the guest bedroom downstairs.
All you'll need to bring are your personal items, food for your stay, and extra firewood!
Once booked, I will send more helpful tips and information for your stay a week prior to your check in date.
Dogs - I allow dogs because I believe they are part of the family, but please notify me if you intend to bring your dog prior to your stay.
If there is high wind in the forecast, the electric company, PG&E may turn the power off for safety reasons. They usually notify me a day in advance and I will let you know right away, but I wanted you to know that it might be a possibility during your stay.
For Winter Guests: A 4 wheel drive vehicle or car with chains is HIGHLY recommended to travel to the cabin. The main road is paved but there will be snow/ice in the area. The driveway is a slight uphill and is not paved. Please be prepared for snow.

Really great spot and an excellent host. The creek is quite deep and the perfect temperature for cooling off on a hot day. Billy was amazing. She did a grocery run for us in the morning if we needed anything. She supplies the wood for your fire and honestly takes care of anything you might need. Had a great time and will definitely be back soon. Great proximity to the nearby lakes and lots of opportunity for hiking as well. Thank you so much Billy!

Serene remote creek hot springs. This was my second visit after first trip last January. The pools varied in temp from comfortable to very hot, and the creek was icy in Jan to cool in summer. Fish jumping, sounds of nature, rad spot. The owner was accommodating when we dropped in to a fully booked out reunion group, he allowed us to camp on another creek within the ranch for the evening. Highly recommended.

Group trip
Host was generous with group site, offered popsicles and firewood for donations. Some mosquitoes by the creek but I've seen worse - bring bug spray and wear long sleeves. Waking up in the shade to a fire was awesome. Sometimes you're allowed to have campfires during the July-Sept "fire ban" - it just means the Forest Service can issue a ban day-to-day but we were permitted to burn during our late July visit. Yay! Fire ring had grill attached and used that for all cooking. As far as driving there, just follow the host's directions and use odometer. My Prius made it alright with only 1 scrape, though I recommend going very slow or using a higher lifted car. 4WD not necessary. The general store is limited - has wifi, jacket to borrow if you forgot, and sells ice, candy, and soda. Pack in pack out. Used the camp sink to wash dishes and hands. Fresh mountain water from spigot was delicious. Bring a headlamp or lights though as you're in full darkness. Bring backup TP though they do provide it. As far as the mineral baths go, they sure were stinky but not troublesome. We hung out at the creek every day and saw loud ravens, deer, turtle, salamanders, frogs, fish, and more. 1hr+ drive back to town so make sure to bring everything!

Another great trip to Fly Camp! I’ve been here more than a few times and I always love coming back. Not just for the excellent fly fishing but the quiet serene and beautiful environment. On this trip I saw bears, dear, beavers, eagles, otters, foxes, and more all within a few yards of my tent. The river here is crystal clear and amazing to gaze at while having a cold beer. The property makes you feel like you’re much farther off the beaten path than you are yet close to local amenities if needed. Mike the owner is a salt of the earth true gentleman and just an overall wonderful person. He’s always available to answer questions and very quick to respond. I was able to get some steelhead and brown trout on this trip of good size. I highly recommend this spot to any type of camper. Overland rigs, RV’s, car set-up’s, etc. will all find the property accommodating and comfortable as there are many locations to setup camp to your liking. Can’t wait for my next trip to Fly Camp! - place is magic!

We loved this campground and the creek. We picked a spot next to the creek and it was amazing to fall asleep listening to the running water and watching the stars. The creek was only about 25 feet from our site and there was a little trail to get down to it. I set up a hammock right next to the water. It does get warm in summer, so if the heat bothers you it is probably better to pick a site in the back of the campground where it is more shady. We spent a lot of time at the lovely swimming hole and the hot springs. We came midweek and there were only a few other campers. Very peaceful!

Kosk Creek is an amazing hidden gem. The kind of place you actually want to keep secret because it’s so special. The host Scott was very welcoming and friendly. The hotsprings emptying into a cold creek with trout and other wildlife was my son’s favorite part of our NorCal trip. None of us wanted to leave. Being able to enjoy it with your dog made it even better.
