Creekside Mountain Home with private waterfall & farm near Lassen Burney Shasta

Looking for a place to take a break from city life? Need a place to host a family gathering? Want to rejuvenate your spirit? Come to Whitmore Falls!

Overlooking a year 'round babbling creek, this mountain retreat will surround you in natural beauty while giving comfort, joy, and awe. Sweeping views of the hillside and creek set the mood in the great room. The wall of windows provide warm light for gathering at the dining table and lounging on the large sectional. Luxurious finishes include a chef's kitchen with corner farm-sink, granite counters, plus commercial range and hood. Details like locally harvested, reclaimed barn wood, soaring beams, and rich walnut doors & trim compliment the native setting. There’s also a wood-burning stove providing both warmth and ambiance.

With a private entry to the deck, the large main floor bedroom features an ensuite, five-piece bathroom. A cheery loft, overlooking the kitchen, is a great space to play games, cuddle-up with a book, or watch movies. There are two additional bedrooms, each with a private balcony, plus spacious bathroom to complete the second floor.

Find magic at the falls! Walk to amazing creekside deck -- so close to waterfall you will feel the cool mist rising up from the clear water below. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail on this exquisite, multi-leveled, redwood deck.

Stargaze from the hot tub on large deck overlooking the year 'round creek. Explore the grounds: Walking paths are nestled among the ancient oak trees, providing a great opportunity to unwind.

Take a homestead farm tour, feed our goats, collect fresh eggs from our hens (No roosters).

Located about 25 minutes east of Redding. It’s an easy drive up a well-maintained and traveled county road

Take a scenic drive to Lassen National Park and/or Burney Falls. Whiskey Town Rec Area and Shasta Lake and Mt Shasta, Castle Crags, McCloud Falls, and Lake Siskiyou are also easy to explore from here.

Starlink Satellite with mesh wifi network will help you stay connected or allow you to work remotely if needed.

We also have a guest cottage for rent, please inquire.

Absolutely Amazing
Our mini vacay was absolutely amazing. The pictures and descriptions do not do it justice. It's an experience we will never forget. The home is beautiful and everything was so clean and comfortable, and the creek and waterfalls were nothing but magical. The farm animals were such a delight and so fun to spend time with. But Jody and Lisa's warm hearts and wonderful hospitality is what really brings everything together to make your stay perfect. Thank you again.

The house and property are wonderful. The house is beautiful and has everything you could possibly need. The creek was amazing! We spent time swimming, exploring and sitting in the creek on chairs or on the deck relaxing and reading. The hot tub under the stars was so beautiful.

Another fantastic stay
We returned to Whitmore for an extra-long weekend with family and friends and everything was perfect—again. From the thoughtful welcome gifts awaiting us, to the beautiful animals our kids delighted in greeting everyday, and of course the waterfalls and swimming hole that were exceptionally full this year from the rains… We enjoyed and deeply relaxed. Jody and Lisa are the most thoughtful and warm hosts around, and make guests feel so welcome. We find it hard to leave this magical place, but do so knowing we will be back!

Supremely Comfortable Stay!
We had such a lovely time here! The house is beautifully appointed with everything we could have needed. Gourmet kitchen, lovely dinner outdoors on the deck, with multiple seating areas. Fresh eggs from the resident hens. A waterfall with a beautiful creekside deck. Jody couldn't have been more helpful and communicative. A stellar host. We hope to come back soon!

Perfect Stay :)
Our family had a pleasant experience staying at this excellent home. The property is super clean, spacious and beautifully designed. We visited the creek, the current was running strong but the view was amazing. We enjoyed interacting with all the animals (hens, baby chicks, goats, horses...and the sweetest dogs Penny and Nova!) Jody and Lisa are super hosts! They are very friendly and thoughtful. They made our trip unforgettable. Thank you for all the laughter and fun times! Highly recommended!

Wonderful Return to Whitmore Falls
This was our second stay here and we were so glad to come back. Everything was just as wonderful as we remembered and we made some great memories there again. Jody is an excellent host; welcoming, friendly and helpful. (We especially appreciated her help finding a great vet nearby when our pup unexpectedly needed to make a visit.). If you come in the summer, definitely reserve ample time for swimming/relaxing down by the waterfalls and creek. It's so beautiful and refreshing on a hot summer day. Thanks, Jody! We hope to come back again!

Wonderful stay
The house has many modern conveniences and makes for a very comfortable stay. The loft with big screen TV was great for the kids to have their own space at times during the day, and there were many DVDs that were family friendly. The beds are comfortable and the window shades are blackout style to help with sleeping in. During the winter the hot water made it through the pipes pretty quickly and the water pressure is really good in the showers. The property is pretty big (10 acres?) to explore and the goats and hens are fun to see everyday. Best of all, the property owners are very friendly and are dedicated to enabling a wonderful stay!

Amazingly well-stocked home
We have rented a lot of vacation homes, but this was probably the best stocked home we have stayed in. The owners have provided everything a family might need during vacation. The farm itself was relaxing and a lot of fun for our kids, who enjoyed seeing the goats, petting the cat, and playing in the waterfall. Those with mobility issues would probably find the grounds challenging, and those with really little kids might need to avoid the waterfall for safety reasons. For our family, these weren't issues, and we had a great stay at this beautiful home.

Wonderful California Trip
We had a wonderful experience staying at Whitmore Falls. The home was beautiful with a chef like kitchen and a vegetable garden to pick from! The deck was an extension of the house where we ate meals and could enjoy hearing the river below. The stargazing was incredible! The lower deck by the falls was as pretty as the creeks at Lassen National Park nearby. We had our adult children with us and it was the perfect size to accommodate everyone. Hosts, Jody and Matthew, were wonderful to work with. They had a bottle of local wine for us when we arrived. We would love to return! Brenda in Texas

Special place special river
Wonderful vacation at Jody and Matthew's home. As one reviewer mentioned, the pictures don't do justice to the property. The private waterfalls and swimming holes were a great treat. Every morning we sat on the porch for our morning coffee, watching the chicken and goats meander by; woodpeckers feeding their young; humming birds (lots of them) humming around; Novah the dog on his good morning rounds. The kids loved giving treats to the goats (provided by our hosts). Fresh eggs and fruit from the farm. I can keep going...

Adventure awaits
My family and I had an absolutely amazing stay at Whitmore Falls. Not only was the house immaculate, but the attention to detail and amenities exceeded our expectations. The house in itself is well-appointed with beautiful decor, comfortable beds and well stocked kitchen supplies. The outside grounds are a dream come true for city folks. There is ample space to explore and to rejuvenate by the majestic creek and under the clear starry sky. My children loved feeding the animals and exploring the grounds. The homeowners were very kind, attentive, and helpful during our stay. We loved learning about the daily workings of the farm. We hope to come back again soon! Thank you for creating ever lasting memories.

Riverfront magic
What an incredible property and what amazing hosts. Truly one of the most special places we’ve come across. Our kids were thrilled to collect eggs from the free-roaming chickens, to feed the nice goats. Those were their (non river) highlights along with the big hot tub, corn hole and multiple board games to be found. The house is pretty much perfect - dream kitchen with all the accoutrements, big comfy beds, beautiful beams and high ceilings, electric piano, big couches, and lot of useable outdoor entertaining space. And then…there is the spectacular river/river deck. Private river access with a grill, full dining table, and lounge chairs. Amazing swimming holes and even the perfect path to a separate quiet river entrance for the toddler/preschool aged kiddos. We cannot wait to return to this gem!

Wow! Just wow!
The ad and pictures are indeed accurate. This is a lovely home in a picturesque area (in spite of the occasional smokiness from the Dixie fire.) The house is extremely well-appointed, with everything you need. I really appreciated the full kitchen with all the cookware, cooking oils, and a well-alphabetized well-stocked spice cabinet. Jody (and Matthew) was a very friendly host, providing us with freshly-laid eggs, fresh-picked tomatoes, cucumbers, pluots, and plums. The water level in the creek was a tad less than in the pictures, but there was still plenty of water below the falls to swim in. (It being a drought, I wasn't sure there would be ANY water.) This was a wonderful place to come back to and relax after a day of hiking in Lassen Volcanic NP or checking out the sights in Redding.

Wonderful getaway!
My family and I had an amazing time at this property, one of the best we've stayed at yet! Everything from the cozy, yet spacious home, to the goats, chickens, hummingbirds, and garden, to the beautiful private river, waterfall, swim holes and river deck...it was absolutely amazing and we had the best time being tucked away from everything and enjoying the beauty of nature. Jody and Matthew were wonderful hosts, and although they stayed right next door, they were helpful yet gave us complete privacy and were not intrusive in the least. They were kind enough to take our kids out into the garden to pick fresh strawberries and veggies, to feed the goats and collect the fresh eggs from the chickens...our kids loved it! To keep this review fair, some of the minor things to take note of is that the refrigerator does not make ice very quickly, even when at it's coldest setting. With the weather being 100+ degrees, if you plan on taking an ice chest out to the river, you may have to haul in ice from a nearby store. I would suggest even just having a couple of ice trays available to make your own ice. Also, ants...there are so many ants in the kitchen. This is understandable because of the location of the home and so many trees outside.. Just make sure to not leave anything out on the counters or the kitchen table, because they can get out of control. Lastly, I personally don't like to live out of a suitcase, even if just for a few days. This home has zero closet space for your personal clothes/items, and no dresser drawers either. So you will have to live out of your suitcase, or lay your stuff around all over your room wherever you can. It's manageable, but for me it was a little rough. I still give this home 5 stars because all the positive outweighed the minor negative details by a whole lot. I highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a private location, surrounded by nature and the sound of the river, away from crowds and large towns and technology!

Spectacular!
This is a phenomenal property with a stunning home! Finding all this in one spot is a rare opportunity, so don’t miss it. Just book it, you won’t be sorry. This wonderful vacation spot has a beautiful and well-maintained home with lovely design details. You will have beautiful views, a private creek to dip your feet and explore in, plus the awesome swimming hole under the waterfalls … all to yourselves—priceless! Swimming next to the waterfalls was so much FUN! We enjoyed the frogs & lizards by the creek and all the little fish in it. Woodpeckers visited every morning with great birding all day long. Stargazing while hot tubbing was amazing. We also enjoyed the farm goats, geese, chickens, and doggies, too. Just bring your groceries, no need to leave. The owners are truly kind and gave us complete privacy. We found we never wanted to leave and know we will go back. It is too darn great (and easy!), we have to :)

Back from another wonderful stay at Whitmore falls. Jody’s property is truly amazing. My family and I have stayed before but each time somehow we make even more great memories. Even our dog loves visiting! The house is beautiful, well stocked and comfortable. Having access to the falls is great for our son. I’m worried one trip he won’t want to come back home.

We are very late in leaving a five-star review for this amazing place, where we stayed late last summer. To begin with, it's hosted and lovingly cared for by an incredibly warm and generous person. The house is stunning. The kitchen is set up for people who really like to cook. And the swimming hole is simply amazing. On top of that, the garden is bountiful and the goats and chickens very friendly. We will definitely be back!

we picked this property because of the waterfall, but it was perfect in so many ways. my two daughters who needed to work were able to do so and enjoy the views at the same time. my son who loves to fish spent many hours at the creek/waterfall. all of the kids and spouses enjoy cooking and the kitchen had everything the could have imagined needing. i wanted to read and enjoy our dogs and it was an ideal spot for both. the garden was delightful and the goats and chickens a hoot. a wonderful place to relax!
