Where to stay?

Book a cozy room in a historic place like McCloud River Inn Bed and Breakfast, complete with scratch made breakfast pastries you can enjoy each morning. The hotel, cabins, or Airstreams at Cave Springs Resort, can offer some solitude under the trees, with firepits delivered to your cabin and s’mores on site, this is a perfect spot for some 1:1 time along the Sacramento River.  If full-service is more your cup o’ tea, a resort like Mount Shasta Resort will deliver just that. Charming accommodations in private chalets, beautiful views and a restaurant and spa on property are sure to add to the romance. With many lodging options in Siskiyou, we are sure to have something that will be your perfect match!

What to eat and drink?

From casual fare to fine dining, your next date night is just around any corner in Siskiyou. Dinner for two at Denny Bar Co. Distillery in Etna is sure to impress you and your loved one. They have an extensive cocktail list with their own small-batch handcrafted spirits, creative weekly food specials, and some truly divine desserts made by their pastry chef extraordinaire. Other mentionable favorites are Sage Restuarant, a top-notch dining experience located in the McCloud Hotel, or Baldovino’s Wine Bar and Kitchen, an impressive and intimate new fine dining restaurant in downtown Mount Shasta. Cobra Lily Bar & Bottle, a favorite wine and tapas bar located in Dunsmuir, serves up locally nibbles and a stellar wine list. Be sure to call ahead and make reservations whatever you choose!

How to play?

Take a scenic drive down Highway 96 along the Klamath River and enjoy some conversation and time together. Be sure to stop at Quigley’s Station and share a slice of pie, simply the best! We have complied a whole list of scenic road trips that are sure to inspire you.

Pack a picnic with goodies from Bee Kind Bakery for a secluded spot along the McCloud River Falls trail to enjoy a peaceful breakfast together or grab a fresh juice and nourishment from Alua’s Thrive Bar and stroll around Lake Siskiyou under view of the snowcapped peaks of Mt Shasta.

Adventurous couples might go snowshoeing at Mt Shasta Nordic Center or skate around the Siskiyou Ice Rink at Mt Shasta’s Shastice Park. A slower pace date might want to peruse the many art galleries and museums that Siskiyou has to offer, the options are endless, whatever your speed. Book a couples massage at Sacred Moutnain Spa or just go shopping on Yreka’s Historic Miner Street exploring the stacks at Zephyr Coffee and Books or paint a pottery craft together at Bella Art Works.

When the day begins to close, enjoy a glass of wine and some small bites at Yreka’s inviting The Wine Bar, they feature great local musicians regularly. If you are more of a beer-drinking couple, try cozying up to a crackling fire pit and grab a board game and sip one of their many outstanding craft brews in the heated outdoor patio at Etna Brewing Company.

Lastly, we recommend you do some stargazing while visiting. The night skies in Siskiyou are incredibly clear, making it a perfect place for some cosmic romance. We particularly love the views from Lake Siskiyou, Mt Shasta Vista Point along I-5, or Etna Summit. Anywhere in Siskiyou that is away from light pollution is sure to offer quite a show!

All of these adventures are sure to help you, and your love unwind, reconnect, and enjoy the beauty of California’s True North.
