2 Bedrooms • 2 Bathrooms (1 full, 1 half) 2 Baths (1 full, 1 half) • Sleeps 1-6Welcome to Riverstone Retreat, a charming, old-fashioned riverside cabin that has been lovingly maintained by the same family since 1940. Tucked along the famous Upper Sacramento River in Dunsmuir, this special getaway offers a rare opportunity to slow down, reconnect with nature, and make lasting memories right on the water.
The cabin comfortably sleeps up to six guests, with two bedrooms, a full bathroom and a half bath. One bedroom features a queen bed, while the second has a full bed and a twin. An additional fold-out twin bed is available in the entry room. You'll find a full kitchen for preparing meals, a welcoming living room with plenty of couches and chairs, Wi-Fi, and a Smart TV for relaxing after a day outdoors.
Step outside onto the large deck, where comfortable seating and beautiful views of Elephant Rock and the Upper Sacramento River create the perfect setting for morning coffee, afternoon relaxation, or yoga with the sound of flowing water in the background.
With direct river access, you can spend your days swimming, tubing, exploring the riverbank, or casting a line into some of the area's best-known trout fishing waters. Whether you're planning a fishing trip with friends, a peaceful women's retreat, a family getaway, or simply a chance to unplug and enjoy the outdoors, Riverstone Retreat offers a memorable setting.
This is a genuine, well-loved fishing cabin with rustic character and a relaxed, unpretentious feel—not a polished luxury resort. Come for the river, stay for the simplicity, and leave with memories of a special place where generations have gathered to enjoy the beauty of the Upper Sacramento River.

About the Owner
In 1939, Great-Grandma Gault was taking the train to Mount Shasta when she made a prolonged stop in Dunsmuir. While there, she and a friend decided to explore the area. Across the river and over the bridge was once a train stop, and along the banks of the North Sacramento River stood a collection of little hunting and fishing shacks. Most were simple cabins, and many had been abandoned. Then, as the story goes, a great storm rolled in. Seeking shelter from the rain, Great-Grandma Gault came upon this little abandoned cabin and kicked in the door. Something about the place spoke to her. Rather than simply waiting out the storm, she decided she wanted to make it hers — and purchased the cabin from the city on the spot. She believed she had found the most beautiful spot on the North Sacramento River. Just in front of the cabin sat a remarkable rock rising from the middle of the river. She named it Elephant Rock, claiming there were two different ways to see an elephant in its shape. Can you spot them both? Years later, Great-Grandma Gault's granddaughter married a Sutherland, and the cabin became part of the Sutherland family. It has been lovingly passed down through the generations ever since. Today, Lee Sutherland and his wife, Dawn, are delighted to carry on that tradition as the owners of River Stone Retreat — and even more delighted to share this one-of-a-kind cabin with you. So settle in, enjoy the newly renovated deck, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and, of course, take some time to enjoy the river. We hope you love this special place as much as Great-Grandma Gault did all those years ago.
