Dunsmuir Lodge

Comfortable, unique lodging in Dunsmuir, California

“A Great Place to Stay” in Dunsmuir.

June 19, 2019 By Lodge

Here’s our latest review on TripAdvisor…
5 ‘dot’ rating – the best.
A great place to stay!
We were driving to Oakland, CA from Seattle and wanted an overnight place to stay for the trip. We booked this place online and LOVED it. You absolutely cannot beat the price. The owners have bought a vintage motel and upgraded it. It is very clean, has a great bed with nice bedding, free wifi, and a TV. What more can you want? Since ours was just an overnight stay we picked an economy room which was perfectly fine. The owner is nice, and very helpful. The place is just South of the town of Dunsmuir on the outskirts of town so very quiet. We drove into town for a nice dinner outside at the brew pub. We highly recommend this place!”
Our Response: Thanks for your review! We’re here 24/7 since 2005 to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Don’t forget to get  some local food “to-go” and go eat at the picnic tables  by the river in the City Park. It’s a great way to cool off in the shade next to a cool flowing river in the summer!

EVConversion Dragsters Coming To A Track Near You!

May 24, 2019 By Lodge

You probably already know that Dunsmuir Lodge has Lift ticket packages and electric car charging. You might not know that EV’s are fast becoming competitors to Internal Combustion Engines in the sense of power. Well theres EV hope for “petrolheads”. Conversion companies are out there and big makers can see the writing on the wall. Make electric options.
That GM has electric drivetrain isn’t news (ev-1 fiasco). The real news is that Borg-Warner Automotive Inc provides the motors. Were talking electric “crate” motors to swap. If this is actually released it could be a game changer in the sense that it allows true “motorheads” who “need” combustion to try it out on their own vehicle, without doing a full EV conversion. Its got two of these motors linked here. https://www.borgwarner.com/technologies/electric-drive-motors/hvh-series-electric-motor
I must admit. While I love electric, theres nothing like the sound of the ls’d truck going up against it… You got exciting and sexy vs. quiet, reliable power.

Have a great day guys!

THANK YOU FIREFIGHTERS!

September 18, 2018 By Lodge

The Delta and Hirz fires are under control, but there remains many firefighters on these fires. Cleanup and watching for flareups is a big job, and there are places where the fire is still burning. As a ‘thank you’ to everyone involved in stopping the fires, we are offering 25% off all rooms for firefighters and contract workers on site or simply for a night off or two.

I can see clearly now…

September 2, 2018 By Lodge

canyon-south view of Hirz FireThe smoke is gone… Well not quite, as occasionally the wind blows what’s left of the Carr & Hirz Fires’ smoke up here. Most days are like this now, though. I could see Castle Crags from our parking lot, and it’s nice to be able to breathe easy again. The weather has cooperated, also, we’re seeing highs in the high 80’s the past three days.

Fish are biting; I don’t fish myself, but at a recent stop to “eat riverside” at the Dunsmuir City Park & Botanical Gardens, I watched a guy catch one while I was eating. A day later, while showing a guest lower McCloud Falls, we watched six guys walk down and drop lines. Within minutes they were all catching fish of various sizes! It was a great show for my friend who was from Montana, and said that the area reminded her of home.

Lake Siskiyou still has boats for rent: take a leisure ride with a sweeping, post card view of Mount Shasta. Or to get the same shot as 101 things guide, ask Eric @ the Dunsmuir Lodge where to go…

Thank You Firefighters!

Wanna See A Tesla Dance?

July 28, 2018 By Lodge

So one night I got a pretty cool surprise for a car enthusiast. It started when a Tesla pulled in at the lobby to check in. From afar I thought it was a new model 3, so went to check it out. It turned out to be an “X” (model X: AWD SUV/crossover), but we hadn’t yet had one to our new Tesla Destination Charger-so I went in to chat with the guest. Most Tesla owners are happy to stop and answer questions about their car, and this guy was a true fan of his car. Only owned two months, this was his first road trip and he used the car’s in-dash app to find us. We spoke for almost 15 minutes and while walking out of the office he offered me ride. In my overexcitement at my first ride in ANY Tesla, I blurted out “Hell yeah!” before I could filter my words.  … we got in and he showed me “startup” -there really is none, get in and it’a already on and ready to go, thanks to the key fob/RF interface. We took off and drove towards downtown, did a loop around a few blocks, stopping once so he could partially punch it to demonstrate it’s torque. WOW, is all I can say. Any car enthusiast that likes torque and to be launched hard like like a dragster needs to experience this. We came back south and when he got near the offramp I got really excited…

I would be surprised and let down at the same time. We didn’t get on the Freeway, instead he pulled over and asked me if I wanted to drive. “Of course I would”, I replied in a more Tesla-esque manner, this time.
