GOOD MOTELS RED BLUFF NORTH TO MEDFORD?
Hi Nomads...
Hope you guys can help me out...
Going to be traveling north to Washington (Redmond) next week and would like some recommendations for good motels along Interstate 5 anywhere from Red
Bluff to Medford.
Since it will be for just one nights stay, it doesn't need to be the Ritz. The cheaper the better, but of course clean is important!
Anything you know about coming back south would also be appreciated...maybe as far south as Sacramento.
Many Thanks in advance!

In Redding----------Exit mid-town Redding on CYPRESS, and turn west on CYPRESS for one short block, and then turn north (right) one block where you
will find an exceptionally nice MOTEL 6 on your right, with a restaurant within 1 block. Also, the VAGABOND, just before the MOTEL 6 is old, but nice
and right beside the above mentioned restaurant. Both very reasonble.
More fancy, try the BEST WESTERN on HILLTOP which is exceptionally nice, but a bit pricey at around $100. Take CYPRESS exit but turn East on Cypress
and then almost immediately north on HILLTOP for several blocks----Best Western will be on your left, and there are numerous great restarants on
premise or within walking distance.
Redding has dozens of Motels, most just fine, and most on HILLTOP.

Miguelamo, keep driving to Mt. Shasta. The mountain air will be many degrees cooler than the valley. There are half a dozen private motels with much
more reasonable prices than any of the chains, and we have good food within walking distance. Take the first Mt. Shasta exit, old highway 99 is still
populated with the former "auto courts".
Fill your water jugs with the best drinking water on earth, and we're almost exactly half way between Medford and Redding; a little over 6 hours to
the Columbia River.
EZ re-entry to I-5 and 45 minutes to the Oregon line in the morning.
Give a call if you feel like it. 530 eight 5 nine 2 seven 5 nine.

all those suggestions above are good...........I think it depends on how far you are going to go and when it is convinent of you to stop. Redding is
HOT at the moment and Mt. Shasta would be nice. Several months a nomad mentioned a place they stay near Dunsmuir that was pretty good. Cave
something on the left hand side of the hiway. Anyone remember that post? I cannot remember the name of the place.

I was down there today and took this picture in the shade.
93 here at 18%. The afternoon breeze(and the smoke) will make for a nice sunset.
