Turtle Bay Lodge used to be different they've renovated all of the facilities and it's a very nice and clean and the management is very easy going I recommend you go there if you need a hotel and if you're in Redding
I stayed here some time back . I really enjoyed my stay the room was clean and quiet. Housekeeping was prompt. Closes to shopping and bus . That is helpful for those without their own transportation. Also , it is close to the Sacramento river,river trails, as well as Caldwell park, and downtown.
This lodge was great. 10 stars. Was passing through town & didn’t make a reservation, called a bunch of places 4th of July weekend so everything was sold out but luckily there was a room here with a king bed available at midnight thank god. It was very clean & sanitary bed was very comfy as well. Would definitely recommend and stay here again. The lady in the office was very nice as well
Laid-back residential area with the Sacramento River Trail, plus fishing & skating at Caldwell Park.
