Bonanza King Resort

We got married at Bonanza King Resort in May 2023 and it was better than we ever could have imagined. If you are considering hosting an event here, the space speaks for itself, but what truly makes it special is the Johnson family. Owners Kevin & Janelle Johnson genuinely love bringing people together, and they work tirelessly to keep the cabins & grounds in top shape.

Communication with them was seamless. They accommodated every request we had and they went so far above & beyond to make our event special. We have countless examples of their thoughtfulness and effort. Below are just a few:

- when we expressed that our desire to rent circular dining tables was too costly, they took money out of their own pocket to pay for and transport tables simply because they knew it would make us happy
- though we would have been perfectly happy with normal chairs at the ceremony space, they built benches from milled lumber because it matched our aesthetic better
- they flew their daughter, Lauryn, in from out-of-state to work the wedding — again, at no cost to us
- they picked up personal supplies from Costco (a 1.5 hour drive from the venue) to help lighten my load
- they let my catering Chef use their own personal kitchen when he realized his sheet pans didn’t fit in the cabin ovens
- when we realized it wasn't in our budget to rent a party tent, they purchased one of their own just in case we needed it

In terms of the space itself, the bridal suite was adorable and equipped with thoughtful touches. The grounds were rustic yet polished. The cabins were cozy and spotlessly clean. The ceremony space was beautifully manicured and the reception area was charming. There were plenty of places for guests to tuck away and explore.

I cannot recommend Bonanza King Resort enough. Hosting our event here positively changed the course of our lives. Thank you, Kevin & Janelle!

My wife and I love this area, The Trinity Alps, For it's beauty and The many walking and hiking trails... lots choices and variety. On the way to going somewhere else in the area we have oftenl driven by and admired the grounds and the closeness to the river... and thought someday we would like to stay there. When other plans fell apart we called and book a 3 night stay on short notice. I wouldn't recommend trying it on short notice... but we got lucky. The cabin was fully equipped and clean as a pin. If you like to bike this is also a great place to stay.

My husband and I attended a wellness retreat at Bonanza King Resort. The owners are a couple of the nicest people you could ever meet. It was a life changing experience at such a beautiful place!

Words cannot even describe how beautiful this property is.

A writers dream come true and a retreat option for the perfect connection with community.

Worth the drive & the owners are the kindest people with truly giving hearts!

This resort is so beautiful and well maintained. Each cabin has a full kitchen, nicely decorated, super cozy and several beds. Perfect place to go to enjoy nature with a few people or a large group..Pavilion and lawn area to entertain, fire pit, stream, many hiking trails nearby and about an hour to Mt. Shasta. Kevin and Janelle were such amazing hosts. They were so accommodating from before we even arrived, until we left. They took us to Bonanza King Lookout which had some of the most breathtaking views I have ever seen. I will definitely go back especially because how they made us feel. I left there filled with so much joy and peace

Amazing experience in the Trinity Alps. Can’t wait for another opportunity to spend some time here. Definitely a regular R&R location.

This place is great for families who want to get away from city life for a bit. Brian and Mary are very welcoming and have great ideas if you're looking for something to do. Or you can just go swimming in the river that's on the property. Tuesday and Thursday movie nights and Wednesday pancakes breakfast are great! They even have a Monday night farmers market. We love it here and go back every year!!

Very nice rustic cabins sitting next to Coffee creek. They have horseshoes, swimming, fishing, movie night and just laying around. The owner where very nice and friendly people. Will be going back. This is a great time of year to be there.

This is a fabulous place. Clean, well appointed and so much fun for everyone. A peaceful little treasure tucked in the woods by Coffee Creek.
A perfect place for both adults and kids. The kids can safely wander around the grounds with games, ping pong, fishing, swimming, and a beautiful teepee to inspire and honor the native culture. We stayed in Ramshorn and it was adorable. Had everything we needed, all we had to bring was food and games. Adults can laze around on the hammocks, or set your chair in the creek and just relax. Great white water rafting not to far away and the big city of Weaverville just about a 1/2 hour down the road. But once you're there, there really is no reason to leave. Brian and Mary are the best hosts. Can't wait to go back.

Found this gem of a place in the Trinity Alps. The hosts Kevin and Janelle are excellent. Very welcoming, dog friendly. We had a great nights sleep. Very peaceful. Highly recommended, we will be back

I stopped here in late 2020 when I was having car troubles and the owners helped me out tremendously without asking anything in return. The place seemed beautiful and well-run. Would love to take a trip here sometime. :)

Bryan and Mary do a great job running this place. If you want to make a return visit be sure to book it before you leave, it fills up.Trinity county has a lot of hidden treasures and this is a great get-away base for your adventures.

Wow, this place was lovely. The owners were a pleasure to work with, the whole experience was great. And there’s EV charging!

We delivered wedding flowers and the place was beautiful and staff was very helpful!

Words can not begin to relay the pure peace, tranquility, beauty and fun of Bonanza King. It is a truly special place on earth.

Warm hospitality, gorgeous setting, comfy cabins. We will be back!

Under new ownership. Great place to stay.

I can’t speak highly enough of Bonanza King and the family behind this beautiful venue. I’m getting married here in September and have had the opportunity to stay at the grounds and work closely with the owners planning for the big day. There is so much attention and care put into the property, from spotless cabins with all of the amenities you could dream of, to beautiful outdoor areas with activities for everyone and tons of communal spaces for groups to socialize. The cherry on top for me, though, is the kindness of the owners. It’s so clear they love what they do and really want to go above and beyond for their guests. Just GOOD people. I absolutely can’t wait to go back before the big day and I plan on returning often, it’s just such a serene place.
