Michele is amazing. I sent a reservation inquiry and she called me back promptly that day. She was…read moreso upbeat and fun to talk to and genuinely excited to host me. She wasn't pushy at all and didn't upsell me anything - just gave me all the tips and info. We decided on a tandem snowmobile for an hour with a guide. We arrived 20 minutes late but she was so professional - she shortened and made the check in process so easy. There was a cabin with fire where you can change since Deer Mountain was quite cold and was snowing that day desolate the snow drought. She was mega attentive and taught us everything and told us exactly where we were going. She took couple of pictures for us and explained what we'll see had it not been so foggy. On the way back when we stopped at a viewpoint my boyfriend accidentally accelerated and we toppled right where the cliff started - Michele rushed over and helped us up and we genuinely concerned for our well being. We're so grateful she was our guide and can't recommend her enough. She's an amazing person with a beautiful smile and we definitely suggest everyone go snowmobile with her, especially first timers!

Darrin has been our long time guide for many years. He has guided myself, and my family on over a…read moredozen Fly Fishing trips. What I believe is most important in a guide, over just catching fish, is Darrin is SAFE and responsible. I trust him to guide on trips across any body of water with the most valuable person in the world to me; my son. That cant be said for all guides. With all of that said...Darrin is suburb at fishing all types of fish species across all types of water. He is patient with new anglers as well as kids. Starting as a new fisherman myself Darrin taught me the skills of Fly Fishing that I have developed over the many years of fishing with him. On top of that Darrin taught my son when he began fly fishing at the age of 12. We have caught more Steelhead, native trout, strippers and bass than I can count. I would highly recommend Darrin for any California, Oregon, Idaho fishing trips. I would not hesitate to contact him for any other trips or states you plan to fish solo or with your family. Darrin I'm happy to be used as a reference for any of your clients. Feel free to have them call me direct.

This past summer we visited Mt. Shasta Hatchery for the first time on their Free Kids Fishing Day…read more What am amazing experience! The Department of Fish and Game provided free rental poles, bait (worms and power bait), a link to hold the fish, then bagged and iced the fish to go when guests were done. The was a 3 fish limit per child and the ponds were so stocked the kids caught their limit within an hour. Growing up in a family that loves to fish, I appreciated this event as it gave the kids the opporunity to really learn how to fish on their own and they didn't have to wait too long before catching their first fish. Also, there were plenty of volunteers available to help bring fish in with nets and remove hooks that were tough to remove. The rules are clear, fishing is for the kids, no catch and release, you must take what you catch and there is a 3 fish limit. We saw fish of all sizes caught and were happy with what we got. The Mount Shasta Hatchery is also a great place for kids to learn about the fish life cycle, see them at different stages of life and feed the fish. Next time we visit, we hope to check out the museum. One thing to note is it is a very far walk in from the entrance to the ponds so get their early or be prepared to walk really far.

If you look closely, you can see scars and injuries the trout have from living together in such close proximity. Their constant fighting over food only leaves the strong, seasoned warriors making it all the way to adulthood (huge sizes). There is a public restroom by the parking lot. They also have a covered building where you can see the very small babies.

Russ and Debbie, the owners, were so accommodating, enjoyable, helpful and easy going; people you could just spend all day talking to. There are some RV spaces to camp here so we stayed on site to make set up a little easier on the day of the memorial. We had family that rented a quaint one bedroom cabin on site as well. There is an outdoor covered kitchen area with a huge refrigerator, which allowed us to bring food in advance and prep the day before. It was all so convenient! They were in the path of the Dixie fire, so the drive out there is baron, but don't let that deter you. Once you arrive, you are surrounded by green trees and stunning scenery. It was a perfect hidden gem. We are so pleased with our entire experience at lassen meadows and would absolutely recommend it and use this venue again for other events.
