McCloud, California, nestled in the shadow of Mount Shasta, enjoys a Mediterranean-like climate with warm, dry summers and cool, wet winters. Summer temperatures typically range from the mid-70s to low 90s Fahrenheit, perfect for outdoor pursuits, while winter brings ample snowfall, averaging around 50 inches annually, transforming the area into a snowy wonderland. The nearby McCloud River, with its stunning waterfalls-Upper, Middle, and Lower Falls-offers excellent fishing for trout, hiking along scenic trails, and kayaking for adventure seekers. In warmer months, locals and visitors flock to Lake McCloud for boating, swimming, and picnicking. When snow blankets the region, Mount Shasta becomes a hub for skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing, drawing enthusiasts to its slopes. This blend of climate and geography makes McCloud a year-round playground for outdoor enthusiasts. McCloud, California, began as a bustling lumber town in the late 19th century, shaped by the McCloud River Lumber Company, which was established in 1896 by founders George W. Scott and William Van Arsdale. Originally named after Alexander Roderick McLeod, a Hudson's Bay Company trapper who explored the area in 1829, the town's spelling shifted to McCloud by the 1860s, possibly to honor pioneer Ross McCloud. The lumber company dominated the region, owning the town and its infrastructure-housing, utilities, and even the McCloud Hotel-earning it the nickname Mother McCloud for its nurturing role. The railroad, built to transport timber, fueled economic growth until the industry declined, with the mill closing permanently in 2002 after changing hands several times, including to U.S. Plywood in 1963 and P&M Cedar Products in 1980. Privatized in 1963, McCloud transitioned from a company town to a community preserving its historic charm, now a National Register Historic District, while embracing tourism drawn by its natural beauty and Mount Shasta backdrop. The property is located just outside the historic town of McCloud, less than 30 minutes from Interstate 5 and 1 hour from city of Redding. The towns of Mt Shasta, Dunsmuir, Fall River Mills, and Burney are a short drive away. |
