Shasta Valley Horse Ranch Adventure
1. Shasta Valley Horse Ranch Adventure
100%
(3)
41mi from Mount Shasta · 2 sites
Scenic views on a hilltop surrounded by mountains overlooking a valley and pond.
Wide open spaces dotted with junipers and oaks.
Bring your self-contained RV or camper. No tent camping at this time, sorry.
Wake up to see the sun on the hillsides and the beautiful horses and donkeys grazing nearby. Your RV will be in a separate area apart from the horses, but near enough to observe them.
We are located between Mt Shasta and Mt Ashland with winter sports nearby. Hike the Klamath National Monument trails. Visit the old mining town of Yreka and check out historic Montague's Open Sky Art Gallery, the only justice-inspired art gallery in the Pacific Northwest. Many waterfalls and clean lakes in our area to visit too.
I am an ARCH (Arenas for Change) Designated Horse Professional, Coach and Educator. I will be present with you for any horse experience you choose.
Horse experiences available:
1. Communication with Horses. Connect and interact with the 5 horses and 2 donkeys in their pasture in a natural setting. Build confidence, reset your nervous system, and experience a deeper dimension of horse nature and how they teach and heal us. Stroke or groom horses as you learn more about these magnificent, sensitive creatures.
2. Self-Development with Horses. Want to be seen and heard?
SEEN and HERD is a wellness session with horses with a specific intention you identify. This experience is often deep, transformational, and healing.
The solution to any issue lies within ourselves. The unfolding stories of the horses and donkeys, as they interact with us in their natural setting, lend insights into our own story. Learn what is needed to move forward with intent.
3. Mountain Horseback Trail Riding. Go for a ride with a wrangler and me
on gentle riding horses up well-established mountain trails on a recreational ranch as my guest. Guest fees apply and are included in the price.
4. Arena Horseback Riding and Lesson. Ride alongside me in a large arena on a gentle riding horse. Learn how to relate to the horse as you ride, communicate effectively, keep your balance using the correct posture, turn, stop, and move forward smoothly. Build your confidence as you learn from a patient riding instructor. No judgment, no yelling. Just fun learning!

44mi from Mount Shasta · 1 site · Tent, RV
Want to get away from it all? We own 4,5 acres along the scenic Klamath River in the Siskiyou Mountains.

They are amazing!
Wifi available for a fee.
Garbage: what you pack in, you pack out.
2 days max stay. Unfortunately no open fires allowed because we are in a national forest.
Come enjoy some zen moments in nature. And if you’re lucky, you’ll see deer and other wildlife.
Also, our blackberry bushes are loaded this year. All organic. You can pick some! Any other questions, please ask your host Bieke.

Siskiyou Sky Camp
4. Siskiyou Sky Camp
44mi from Mount Shasta · 8 sites · Tents, RVs
Tucked in Iron Gate Lake Estates in Siskiyou County, CA. this 2.55-acre private parcel offers a quiet, open setting for self-contained campers looking to unplug and spread out. Surrounded by wide skies, rolling terrain, and Northern California mountain views, it’s a peaceful basecamp for those who prefer space over crowded campgrounds.
This is raw, undeveloped land — perfect for dry camping and boondocking. There are no hookups, water, or facilities, so guests should be fully self-contained and prepared to pack in and pack out. The openness of the property allows for generous spacing between rigs and beautiful stargazing at night thanks to minimal light pollution.
Iron Gate Lake and the Klamath River are nearby for fishing, kayaking, wildlife viewing, and exploring. The area is known for its quiet roads, big skies, and slower pace — ideal for overlanders, van lifers, fishermen, hunters, or anyone simply looking for a peaceful stop along their travels.
Access is via rural subdivision roads. High-clearance vehicles are recommended depending on conditions. Cell service can be limited, so it’s best to download maps ahead of arrival.
Dogs are welcome but must be leashed or kept within a controlled area near your RV.
If you’re looking for a simple, spacious, and quiet place to park for the night and enjoy Northern California’s open landscape, this may be the right fit for you.

Becky and her husband made us feel safe and welcome on their land. It was dark and foggy when we arrived, but we woke up to a beautiful scene of frosty, rolling hills and spent the morning with the horses and donkeys. We will definitely be staying here again in the future!

Had a great overnight here. Becky and Terry are gracious hosts. Very quiet and private spots, and if you like animals you can book time with the horses.
