The word "Amma" means mother in the language of India and grandmother in the Icelandic tongue. Amma's Lodge is so named because we try to offer something extra in the way of caring and personal service.
There is nowhere else in the Mt. Shasta Area you have so many options as offered by Ammas Lodge. We feature one or two bedroom units, furnished or unfurnished, pets or not, for stays as short as a 3-day weekend or much longer. Some residents have been with us for longer than four years.
Why so popular? Because we put out for you—arranging beds to accommodate your family or group, keeping kitchens and bathrooms stocked or not, depending on which items of linens and cookware you bring for your stay. We provide everything but daily maid service, yet a washer and dryer are provided.
Directions: Northbound from Redding, take the first I-5 exit to Dunsmuir. The Mt. Shasta Ski and Snowboard Park is about five miles, or just two freeway exits north, at the turnoff to McCloud. GetMap .

Looking for Other Spectacular Lodging for Couples and Groups?
Because of limited number of cottages and units, we sometimes get booked up. Shasta creekside Home is located at the base of Mt. Shasta, about 20 miles from Dunsmuir.
A $50 deposit is required to hold the unit. Your reservation may be canceled by you, and the deposit returned, at any time up to 48 hours prior to check in. Reservations may be also made over the phone at 415 302-2820.
Why are these rates so reasonable?
Well, I began coming to Mt. Shasta twenty years ago, when I was stressed out from my job in Silicon Valley. Gradually, trip after trip, I learned the best places to go to soak in the natural beauty and meet the most interesting people.
Just a few years ago, I bought, renovated and landscaped an apartment building in Dunsmuir, just a few minutes down the freeway from the mountain itself. I designed it with a dream—that is, to someday offer a place to stay with a menu of interesting places and people that I encountered in my trips. I’m offering prices designed to reward the weary traveler, and bargain minded Shasta fun-seeker. To enlighten others to the restorative holidays that I enjoyed, here is a sampling of related websites featuring services that may catch your eye.
