A REAL RETREAT IN WOODS - only minutes from rivers and lakes.
Mountain House - This is not just another place to stay. It is very special and unique. With large all-wood, vaulted high ceilings in awesomely quiet, beautiful location in the tall firs and cedars. It is a perfect retreat from the Bay Area located near Arnold/Bear Valley area. It is just three hours from San Francisco.
You will find the temperatures in the mid 70's to 80's throughout the summer. Go for great walks in the woods right from the deck. Fishing, swimming, or kayaking only minutes from the front door.
And for kids, only 15 minutes away is White Pines Lake near Arnold for afternoon swims, swinging on the rope tree swing across the lake.
The winter months usually bring up to two feet of snow right at the cabin for easy and fun sledding from the front door. The driveway is plowed through the winter season as are the roads.
For skiing, our cabin is near Bear Valley and sleeps up to ten.
