March 2010: Steelhead season is winding down, but we've had recent reports of a lot of fish in the river.
Catching them, of course, is another matter. We've gotten good amounts of rain this winter, as well as some snow
along the river, with a lot more at higher elevations. Compared with most winters, this one is practically balmy.
MARCH SPECIAL: Stay 2 nights, get the 3rd free. Stay 5 nights, get 2 more free!
Trinity River Adventure Inn's cabins are in two locations on the upper Trinity River. We feature year-round fishing; river and lake kayaking and rafting; hiking; birding; wine tasting and lots more. We provide wonderful meals (optional) and have a great 14' raft and fleet of Ocean Kayak sit-on-top kayaks available for rent and sale.
Our Bucktail location for Sow's Ear is 3 miles from Lewiston. The Steel Bridge location is 6 miles away; it has 4 cabins on the Trinity. It's got a productive salmon hole and steelhead riffles along its shoreline. Just 45 minutes west of Redding, we are perfectly positioned for fishers, kayakers, hikers and people who want to kick back and relax.
2/28/2010: "Jim , Chuck and I had a wonderful stay; as always in the cabin everything was perfect! You guys are the best and I am telling everyone I know that they need to get up there and stay with you. Steelhead season is almost over, so am not sure when Luann and I will be back up, but hopefully we will come up this summer. She wants to go down the river after seeing all the photos, so we will have to plan a stay with you. Anyway here are some pics I especially like the one of you Heidi...Where are your shoes it was chilly out that morning? Must be use to it, huh? Thanks again for all you both do to make us feel so special."

Where do two sea captains go after working on the ocean working with whales & dolphins, and being featured on National Geographic? For Heidi Tiura and Steph Dutton, the answer is Trinity County. Check out our cabins below or on the Lodging page. Click here for updates and stories about what we're seeing & doing at the inn. Read Back Talk to learn what our guests have said about their visits.
We're dog-friendly, have our own dogs, and occasionally take them on their own adventures. Click here to see Steph and Mark Grayson (www.trailerdogs.com) wiring the dogs' motorcycle trailer. It's 6 hours compressed into 3 minutes and pretty fun to watch, especially seeing how helpful Mark's dogs and ours were!

Bucktail Lodging: Cabins on & near the Trinity River
"Superlatives are necessary to describe all aspects of our visit. We went with our daughter, avid fisherman son-in-law, their 2 children and their golden retriever. It was great to be able to spread out to accommodate toys, naps (children's and adult's!), etc.
Gail High/Lake Tahoe, CA

Fish a World Famous River
"Caught my first steelhead and it was fantastic!"
Frank Meraz, Sr./Fresno, CA
The Trinity River is renowned for salmon, steelhead, trout and more. Guests come from all over the country to fish this river
and our locations couldn't be better. Guides can even pick you up at Bucktail and drop you off at our Steel Bridge cabins. Click here for Fishing.
Ever seen salmon spawn? Click here to see the spawn we watched off our bank in the fall.
It's really something to see.

Kid & Dog-Friendly Lodging & Adventures
"I loved it! I especially liked the fast water parts!”
Miles Johnson, age 10
It takes a special touch to introduce kids to paddling or hiking, or dogs to riding in a sidecar or kayaking, and we do it well, whether it's picking blackberries on a kayak trip or running the gentle rapids with your four-legged best friend.
Well-behaved, friendly dogs are welcome at all of our cabins; same goes for the kids. Click here for Adventures.
"I recommend this inn to any adventureist who may have kids or dogs."
Tara Roddy/Santa Cruz, CA
Wonderful Meals

Karen Cruz/Monterey, CA

for an extra charge. Click here for Meals.
"The best B & B food we have ever had."
Mary Huff/Bonnie Doon, CA
