Happy Birthday, America!
Hot days, warm nights, a million stars and half a moon.
There is no place like this place. Come on up. Heidi

Where do two sea captains--who created Sanctuary Cruises, a fine, conservation-based whale watching company on the Monterey Bay--go after years
on the ocean working with whales & dolphins, and being featured on National Geographic? For Heidi Tiura and Steph Dutton, the answer is Trinity County.

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.

6/28/2009: "Our Father's Day visit to the Miner's Cabin will be remembered as one of our very best getaways. The cabin is small, suitable for [up to] three occupants (not counting our two dogs). The riverfront location is superb and the furnishings quite comfortable. Those elements alone would have made our trip fun, but what made it outstanding were our hosts, Heidi & Steph
(and their two dogs.)

Put simply, they went out of their way to anticipate our every need, served delicious dinners on the patio of their home, sent us back to the Miner's Cabin with home-made breakfasts, and served up an excellent lunch on our raft/kayak trip. As if this were not enough, they are truly the most interesting and cordial hosts we have ever experienced. We are already planning a return visit.
As Heidi's telephone greeting says: 'You're gonna LOVE IT!!!!' Believe it." Parker & Eva Severaid/Roseville, Ca

Kid & Dog-Friendly Lodging & Adventures
"I loved it! I especially liked the fast water parts!”
Miles Johnson, age 10
"I recommend this B&B to any adventureist who may have kids or dogs."
Tara Roddy/Santa Cruz, CA

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.

"River raft was extremely beautiful."
"We love you guys! Meals: gourmet."
"We liked everything about our stay. The only thing we would do differently is stay longer!"
"We absolutely loved this place! It's definitely a keeper."

Summer salmon season has started. Ever seen salmon spawn? Click here to see the spawn we watched off our bank in the fall. It's really something to see.

5/5/2009: "We had a fun time, even in the rain. Thanks for the wonderful cabin and friendly housekeepers.
I am looking forward to my kayaking lessons. [That happened 6/09.] We'll be in touch." Kim Vickers/Chico, CA
4/1/2009: "Thanks! We had a great time. What a lovely area. The fresh flowers were such a lovely touch!
Take care & thanks again!"
Chris Wise/Redding, CA
"Wow, wow, wow! [Alpen Glow] was clean, beautiful, well equipped and cozy. The grounds equaled the house and had the added attributes of tree swings, a nice lawn, and oh yeah, a stunning view and proximity to the river. I can't wait to come back with Terri." Scott Lewis/Larkspur, CA
