Forest House
The Forest House is a ranch home, and in early days a
station and stopping place, it is located about five miles south ward from Yreka, California, on the road leading over to Scott Valley.
·vniy the name, the Forest House, I do not know'. In any event, it's an old one, having been built in the mid 1850s.
In the early days it was a stopping place for all kinds of travel.
I have stayed overnight there several times on cattle and horse drives going to Scott Valley.
Fred Burton and family owned the ranch then, and someone was telling me a year or so ago, that they still own it.
Burton was a member of the Siskiyou County Board of Supervisors a few years ago.
