The Cranky Canard is a cozy log cabin that sits at the base of the Warner Mountains at 5,340 ft on 20 acres and backs to the National Forest.

Shasta —which is located 95 miles west as the crow flies. Aptly named in honor of the Belligerent Duck, come enjoy this high desert cabin in the wilderness!
