About
We sit on top of a hill with mountain views to the north and the east. Both Mt. Shasta and Mt. Lassen are visible from the property. Guests are welcome to eat dinner on the 700 sq. ft. deck. The RV parking pad is almost perfectly level. We have an outdoor cat, so please, no pets. In the country sound travels very far very easily. My neighbors moved here to get a way from the sounds of the city, so please keep the electronic sounds very low. A generator running for short periods will not bother anyone, but we discourage all night generators. In this part of California fire is always a real danger, so we would appreciate no smoking outside your vehicle. We can't allow charcoal fires or camp fires for the same reason. We own a 2002 Rialta and from time to time we think about upgrading our unit, so if you want to give us a tour of your rig, we'd appreciate it. Kids are welcome; we just ask that they not open any fence gates or cross any fence lines. Small kids can enjoy their bicycles on our long and wide driveway and parking pad.

HOST
Only accepting guests fully vacinated against Covid-19.
Details:
Retired and living on 4 1/2 acres with a few animals. Some are pets, some are dinner. I have climbed California's highest mountains, one of which is visible from our property (Mt. Shasta, 14165 ft.). I still enjoy the outdoors and travel to Europe when I can afford it. I speak passable German and enjoy practicing my German with Germans who like to practice their English.
Home Town:
Palo Cedro is an unincorporated area about 5 miles east of the Redding city limits. Properties here are pretty much 3-15 acres. It is a very nice semi-rural area, but hot in the summer.
Favorite Boondocking Locations:
Areas in the national forest all around us provide many opportunities for privacy and for visiting some of the national parks in northern California.
Skills or Expertise to Share:
I do a bit of fine woodworking.
