Outside... a world of serene splendor awaits you. Exquisite granite peaks, true blue skies, spring fed lakes and towering pines combine to make the perfect backdrop for year-round recreation.

Each of the four seasons revel in their own stunning beauty. Even though your journey may be little more challenging, the winter is the most breathtaking of all. As the snowflakes float to the ground you can cuddle even closer to the crackling fire.

Nearby winter sports include skiing, snow mobiling, sledding, and old-fashioned snowman building.

Your hosts will introduce you to the best skiing, fishing, boating, hiking and horseback riding of the resort area. The inn is just steps from shops, restaurants, pubs and an invigorating 20-minute walk to the lake.

Like glittering jewels in the pine-scented forest, Shaver Lake and the surrounding snow-fed lakes and streams are the heart of the resort area. There is something to satisfy everyone's dream vacation or weekend getaway: a peaceful picnic beneath giant redwoods, hikes into the virtually untouched wilderness, warm and cold water fishing, a variety of water sports including boating, swimming, and sailing. There is much to do and much to enjoy.

The onset of spring signals wildflowers and dogwoods to reveal their blossoms. Cooler temperatures and soft breezes, typical of summer in the forest, provide ideal conditions for outdoor activities, from invigorating water sports to passive relaxation.
