A beautiful lake in a gorgeous setting. Fishing, swimming or laying on the beach with an incredible view of Mt Shasta... wonderful!
This lake makes a beautiful front drop to Mt. Shasta. On a calm, clear day, the mountain is reflected perfectly in the lake, making a gorgeous picture.The lake itself is clean and usually clear, but also usually quite chilly. The beach area is pretty well tended and there are places to rent canoes, paddle boards, motor boats and beach chairs. We come here every time we are in the area.
Lake Siskiyou is a gorgeous, quiet spot near Mt Shasta, CA. Boat rentals, wild trout fishing, hiking and scenic beauty. There are not too many places on the planet that compare! Many natural lakes with easy access nearby. One of the greatest golf courses in the north state within walking distance! A place you don't want to miss out on!
Beautiful area. The Rec room could be rented for a very reasonable price. Seats 50. Lake offers hiking, camping, boating, fishing, and picnicking.
We did not stay at the lake, but reserved the group "party" building for the day. It was large, clean and well appointed. The view of the lake is good and it is a brief walk to the water. Lake Siskiyou is not a natural lake but rather part of flood and water control. The level was down when we were there, but not nearly as far as other lakes in the area. They have a store, dock and rentals. The cost of the camping and housing units varies widely at the resort. The best cabins are large but not cheap. It is a pleasant place which a million dollar view of Mount Shasta.
I loved the lake and the rentals. prices were great and the customer service was exceptional. We rented the paddle boards for two days and the boys had soooo much fun
Rented two double kayaks for the afternoon and enjoyed the view of Mount Shasta and the serenity of the lake. Early in the season so we were just about the only people out enjoying this beautiful spot. Kayaks truly could be update, one had a leak, so pretty wet at the end of the paddle. All in all an enjoyable spot, and not very expensive.
We thoroughly enjoyed our 7 mile hike around Lake Siskiyou. I was especially proud of our two young kids for completing the loop around the Lake. We started at the parking lot off the WA Barr Road just before the Mount Shasta Resort parking lot and hiked around the Lake. It was a very easy trail with no elevation, and more importantly, it hugs around the lake for the most part, and one could not ask for a more beautiful view of the lake and of Mount Shasta looming over the lake. Because we were a bit short of time, we chose not to venture into the side trail just after the camp ground that would lead to a beach. We saw the beach from the other side a little later in our hike. It looked very nice, and you would enjoy a very nice view of Mount Shasta from there. So I'd suggest not to skip it if time permits. A great trail not to be missed.
Very narrow road -- got very lost! Access to lake was not very well marked! Visitors Center information was not at all helpful.
This is a great lake to fish for trout. Heavily stocked you can park usually super close to shore. Its also a great place to take easy hikes to go for a swim or just sit back around sunset and watch bald eagles catch fish. I love this spot
