    Beautiful Shasta Lake has much to offer visitors. There are plenty of folks from Redding here at Shasta Lake, and if you have the time, Whiskeytown National Recreation Area is a national park worth checking out. Get covered with water paddling on Brandy Creek, and since you're here you can play some golf at Gold Hills Golf Club.
From a rainfall point of view Shasta Lake is a reasonably normal site; of all the months in a year January is the one with the most
 
   rain; July on the other hand is the driest. Ramada Limited Redding is a pleasant spot to get some rest, and why not go to nearby Big Backbone Creek Inlet since you're here at Shasta Lake. A lake nearby is Spring Creek Reservoir; close by you hit upon the Dry Creek Trail which is a splendid hiking trail.
This lake is so wonderful. Dry warm beds await you at Best Western Twin View Inn & Suites; Shasta Dam is a beautiful location, without doubt worth a visit.
 
               Having a wonderful time at Shasta Lake is trouble-free. If you came for an overnight stay Keswick Dam Trailer Park is a glorious site to camp, and Keswick Reservoir is a nearby lake that you could take a look at.
