Very interesting, educational Northern California welcome center. Very helpful displays on history of the surrounding counties/areas & the people who settled there, suggestions for things to see and do. Abundant tourism brochures/booklets, pamphlets, maps; Hotel & restaurant coupons. Friendly, knowledgeable, helpful personnel. Young man, Gabriel, staffing during our visit. Very clean restrooms. Beautiful native plants in landscaping. Just off freeway, thru an outlet stores shopping strip center to get to, so not easy on/off I-5 yet close enough to make it worth it. Small gift shop.
This welcome center is tucked into a far corner of an almost empty discount shopping strip mall. However, once inside it had a lot of interesting materials for travelers along highway 5. Plus there is a very nice restroom. Travelers can find a wealth of information about the history and geographical information about the area. There are a deluge of brochures and pamphlets on nearby attractions with maps and pertinent information. This location is a handy resource for travelers in the area, but it is sad that it is so far back in the center and away from the main entrance/exit to the freeway.
Great place to get brochures and catalogs about the area. The restrooms are right before you get to the doors on the left hand side. The staff inside was knowledgeable as well as polite. A great place to get out and stretch your legs.
There are a lot of pamphlets, books, and information on California and surrounding areas. The staff was very friendly and there was a small gift shop. The welcome center also has small displays with local and statewide historical information. Very clean, restrooms available. Wal-Mart and other restaurants and shops are nearby.
This place needs some serious cleaning. The dust was so thick on the topographical map of California, I was ashamed for out-of-state visitors to stop. I know that I couldnt leave fast enough.Ive stopped in other nearby States Visitors Centers. Theyre bright, cheery and most importantly, clean!!!
It seems like a strange location, but once you get to the welcome center, you will find a wealth of information about Northern California. I found the hiking maps for the Redding area useful. They have restrooms there too.
I was hoping to collect a California highway map. But instead I received an official California tourist map.It seems that highway maps are losing priority for state Departments of Transportation dollars as navigation moves toward electronics.Maps are an invitation to the world and its unfortunate to lose this big picture format for comprehending what opportunities a state or area hold to the adventuring American soul.Good collection of individual brochures. Clean public toilets. Nice bear statue at the entrance. His nose hasnt nearly received the patina of millions of visitors.
* very nice displays & travel resources* helpful staff people* nice grizzly statue and 3d map of the area
This is a great place to find things to do from Tehama County to Mount Shasta. They have information on everything from hikes, bike trails, camp grounds, the three Shastas, and even spelunking.They even have a little gift shop featuring local olive oils, souvenirs, t-shirts, and jewelry.
Beautiful visitors center, friendly & informative staff, so much good information!
Good people... Great Maps... Helpful info.... Fun Gift Shop... irrestiable goodies.... Whats not to like!!! Then of course the necessary rest stop bathroom .... Guess that covers it!! Lol

Its alright. I went to get a postcard and didnt have much options.. The guy seemed kinda creepy, grumpy, and boring. Not very welcoming for a welcome center..
Great staff, very helpful. Plenty of parking. Excellent selection of maps and brochures.

2020-12-19I loved this place, it was what, California is all about. As a matter of fact, I think the Gov, should stop by there. And give a ray of Sunshine to the fans of California and to the Workers also. The guide was very knowledgeable and kind in explaining the ins and out of the area. Again the Governor should by. Because this Welcome Center is one to be very proud of. The experience of professional skill, the young man. Showed me. About his state was beyond repair. 5 Stars. And you have to see. The fish in the fish tank. Outstanding. Thank you. Gov Newsom. Great Job.

2019-11-28I stopped in to get a bit of information about the area, possibly coffee, stretch my legs, and for my service pup and I, to go potty!! Lol... Anyway, the place was awesome! Upon entering, a nice gentleman greeted us, and yep, fresh coffee was offered, and I gladly accepted! The place was amazing and super clean! Theres a plethora of free brochures, but beyond that the guy in there, happily spoke to me, of whats awesome and good, about the area nearby, Shasta area!After we talked, I walked around inside. I noticed and was fascinated to see a huge fish tank, built into the wall. It was stocked with a variety of large breeds of local fresh water fish. I stood and watched them swim around for a few minutes, which was relaxing. I knew, I better not get very relaxed, since I had many hours of miles to drive!I noticed a small room to my right, and decided I better keep moving! I walked into the room, which had items for sale, California memorabilia mostly. I then heard a child laughing, and a splash coming from the aquarium. I walked out to see what was going on. The guy working there, was standing in front of the tank, along with a little boy and his mom. It was time for the fish nightly feeding. The guy handed the little boy, some fish food, and the boy excitedly pitched the food into the tank. The fish were ready and waiting, to be fed. They hurriedly swam to the top of the water, where the food layed. Theyd race up to swoop the particles in their mouths, splashing the water with their tails, which sprayed the boy with water droplets. The little guy, giggled and laughed, which we all did! The boys laughter, was infectious, nothing more sweet than a childs laughter!Im certainly glad, I decided to pull over and stop into such a cool, clean, and especially friendly place, you should pull over too!!!
