The boat was nice and clean. The guy who guided us how to operate the boat was amazing! But the security person for Holiday Harbour (who takes care of Parking Space) was very rude to us! The way he talked, needs to watch his behavior.I ignored that unacceptable behavior just because I didn't want to spoil my family trip. But next time, that (Black) person would hear the straight reply back in the same way he talks to others.

My review is about the marina and RV park. It’s a great location. It can be a little tricky hauling bigger rigs in and out of the RV park because the road is narrow. We enjoyed the RV park which was not fully occupied. The restrooms were clean. The water was not super warm. The staff were friendly. The place is dog friendly. It’s about a .4 mile walk to the marina/store from the RV park. There is a separate dock for the RV park where you can keep your boat while staying there. Boat trailer parking is at the front of the park.

If you’re thinking about taking your family out for a houseboating adventure, I’d highly recommend checking out Holiday Harbor. They’re the most reasonably priced. We’ve done some research on houseboats at Shasta Lake and have found most of marinas offering similar houseboats at doubled the prices. If you’re looking to have some luxury and comfort while enjoying beautiful Lake Shasta, this is the marina to rent from. Boats are not over priced, the staff members are super friendly and helpful. We bring our family out at least twice a year and always have a fantastic time.

Could not have asked for better service and experience for our family of 4. Our young girls loved every moment of our three days on Shasta Lake. When we come back next summer we're going to add a power boat for the adults! Can't wait.

Such a great experience! They were able to accommodate my group of 12 on short notice and were nice about it the whole time. everyone I worked with was super helpful and kind. The concept of driving the boat ourselves was intimdating at first since we've always rented with a driver but it was so much easier that we thought and we got to go anywhere we wanted when we wanted. Our boat rental from here definitely made our fourth of July that much better.
