This is a pretty community, with mature landscaping, a small vineyard, distant mountain views and two large lakes. One lake has a center island with a gazebo and a bridge from the shore, creating a scenic tableau. Many a resident takes advantage of the paved walking path that surrounds the water.
The nicely appointed clubhouse has a ballroom, a couryard and a card room. Neighbors meet here for book chats, painting classes, and happy hours. The outdoor pool is surrounded by bocce ball and shuffleboard courts. Residents have access to a large RV parking lot, too.
Redding is bisected by the Sacramento River, and its trail system follows the water, stretching for more than 20 miles. The Sundial Bridge crosses the river and unites the 300 acres of the city’s Turtle Bay Exploration Park. The city supports a ballet, the Riverfront Playhouse, the Cascade Theatre, and the Shasta County Arts Council. Redding events include the Sundial Film Festival, the Market Street Faire, TEDxRedding, the Redding Rodeo, Redding Beer Week, and the Lemurian Shasta Classic Mountain Bike Race. Camping, cabins, hiking, and fishing are available throughout the nearby Six Rivers National Forest.
Mercy Medical Center is accredited by the Joint Commission.
