What guests think

The Angler Lodge draws many road-trippers for clean, recently updated rooms with very comfortable beds, easy keyless entry, and a convenient location near I-5 and Mt. Shasta, making it a practical, low-frills stop between Northern California destinations.

Most guests praise quiet, safe stays and responsive support via text, though the lack of onsite staff feels impersonal to some and the identity-verification step can be inconvenient. Noise is a recurring concern for several reviewers due to nearby train horns and thin walls or floors, and parking can feel tight. The neighborhood and dining scene are modest, but access to downtown Dunsmuir and Hedge Creek Falls is easy. Expect a clean, comfortable, contactless stay geared to quick stopovers.

Great AC! Comfy mattress, pretty clean except the carpet. It could use a good scrubbing. Loved having Netflix on the tv. Staff was great communicating via text and messages. The area surrounding the hotel is pretty run down, and there is not a convenient spot for my dog to go potty.

The bunkbeds were on the floor. They cut the feet off the bunkbeds and laid the bunk bottom bunk on the floor then you look around it’s a spotted floor, but it’s not really a spotted floor look closely. It’s urine spots from all the pets and animals they had in that room on top of that. The smell when you open the door was incredible and the pictures for the property were severely misleading you look out the window for your window with a view and there’s a garbage can and all you see is that is a view. I called and complain to the owner. We couldn’t leave fast enough. I decided to drive another hour to go somewhere else after driving five hours thank God I did. I probably would’ve woke up with bedbug bites. And probably hospitalized from my asthma problems because all the pet dander cause they don’t clean. If I had something to say about this property, unique, it would have to be Louisiana Bayou vibes

We had a one night stay here while traveling. It was a very nice surprise to see all the effort with the nice upgrades inside and outside. Clean, comfortable, safe, reasonably priced and within easy driving distance to Shasta City, downtown Dunsmuir and Castle Craig. The bed had soft, comfortable bedding and a great mattress. We would definitely stay here again when in the area.

Solo trip to do some hiking on Mt Shasta and Castle Crag. This property is centrally located to both. Very clean. Has been recently renovated. I was given a ADA accessible room. Which was fine, larger bathroom with tub and on first floor. Only negative was no where to sit but on bed. No table or desk. But, overall great value for money. I would recommend it.

I have stayed here numerous times, whenever travels bring me by this way. The different rooms I've stayed in have all been comparably comfortable and set up with ease in mind for the traveler. Each stay has been on quiet side for most part (can't control some road noises etc) and I will definitely stay again.

I didn't like that there was no door to the sink area. If the curtains are open to bring in a little light the view of the bathroom is wide open for all to see. If you put the door back in the frame this would offer more privacy in that area. I like the "idea" of no door there, (the door itself will be in the way), but functionally, with the big window there, you need privacy in that area. Maybe a curtain on a tension rod that one can slide open or closed for more privacy is a good solution. Thank you!

It was ok for a quick overnight stay. Pluses: new bathroom fixtures, reliable hot water, excellent mini-fridge. Minuses: nowhere to put clothes! No drawers, hangers, hooks, not even a towel bar or ring in the bathroom -- what were they thinking? The bed looked clean and new, but the mattress needed to be flipped or rotated. My hips sunk into a trough with virtually no support. I was too tired to deal with it and my back was sore the next morning. I'm a small person, so weight was not the issue.

The room was clean, but there is a train that passes by a few times a night blowing it's horn which made it impossible to sleep. The walls are super thin and I could hear the guy in the next room yawning. It's cheap, but probably not worth it if you actually want to sleep.

I was a little concerned when checking in and they asked for pictures of my id and a selfie to verify that I am who I am. However, once I rolled into town, the situation became clear. After an online check in, they gave me my room number and the code to get in. While this was very convenient, I kind of like checking in with hotel staff in person. The room was very clean and very comfortable. For this area, it is a great deal...and caters to the anglers out there. My only complaint is with the town...it appears that they have lost several of the dining options and the only things available on a tuesday night were fast food/hamburger joints. Do-able...but I was craving a beer at the local brewery which supposedly has good food.

This used to be a nice hotel but now the front desk is unstaffed. We arrived at night only to find no way into the room. Instead, I found the hotel phone number and learned that I had to fill out a web form, upload a selfie and a copy of my drivers license before they would send a door code. Terrible experience plus the door key pad did not work in the first several tries. At 1AM, we were awoken by a tow truck delivering a guest car. This kind of stuff does not happen when a motel has an actual onsite manager. Cheap skate hotel owners need to disclose the lack of staff ahead of time so that we can avoid this type of hotel.
