Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
We are a young couple who decided to buy a cabin in the Sierra rather than an much-too-expensive home in the Bay Area. We chose the name Pondering Pines Cabin because of the two towering Ponderosa Pine trees on the property. Our cabin has been a very special place for our family and for many of our renters' families. Many of our renters come back year after year, and their children have grown up with Pondering Pines!
Why the Owner Chose Twain Harte
Our cabin is located in downtown Twain Harte, just steps away from restaurants and shops. Pondering Pines Cabin is on Mark Twain Road, one of the quietest and most lovely streets in all of Twain Harte, with plenty of trees and very little traffic.
