Come enjoy Pondering Pines Cabin in historic Twain Harte, California, only 2.5 hours from the Bay Area.
This peaceful redwood cabin shares the property with two giant Ponderosa Pine trees. We are located on one of the most beautiful and quiet streets in Twain Harte, just steps away from downtown shops , pee wee golf and restaurants.We are the only vacation rental among our neighbors. The neighboring cabins are only used by the owners which keeps our area very quiet.
Pondering Pines Cabin sleeps 8 with 2 bedrooms, a sleeping loft that serves as a third bedroom and two full bathrooms. The upstairs bedroom has a queen and a twin bed. The downstairs bedroom has a queen and twin bed also. The loft has two twins and one full bathroom upstairs and one downstairs as well.
Many Californians know Twain Harte as an excellent vacation destination for families. Some of our renters are third generation Twain Harte vacationers! Pondering Pines Cabin also features lake membership. Great memories can be made spending sunny days on the beach at Twain Harte Lake. Twain Harte Lake is a large swimming lake with fishing, diving boards and water slides. There is a full snack bar that serves everything from burgers and fries to snow cones and ice cream! Winter days can be spent at Dodge Ridge Ski Resort just a ways up the highway.

Why Robert Colombo chose Twain Harte
My family has been vacationing in Twain Harte for about ten years now. We were looking for a vacation place that had everything. Twain Harte is that place. Twain Harte offers a beautiful swimming and fishing only lake, restaurants within walking distance, Pee Wee golf, hiking trails , golf course , movies in the park , only a few hours from the bay area , snow skiing and much more. Its been a long time dream of mine to own my own vacation place in the mountains. With the support of my wife we were able to make it work.
What makes this Cabin unique
Our cabin is located on a very quiet street yet its within walking distance to restaurants , pee wee golf and your morning coffee and fresh baked scone !!!. Its has a large deck and sits on about 1/4 of an acre.We spend every morning having coffee on the deck and every evening bbqing and enjoying our great view as the sun sets. We are very fortunate that all of our neighboring cabins are non vacation rentals. This keeps our area especially quiet. Deer can often be seen coming up from the creek down the hill behind the cabin.The creek is too far to hike to. Sorry kids :) On the nights we get back too late from the lake or playing in the snow we often walk to town for a bite at one of the local restaurants. 'The Rock' is very popular!The cabin was built in 1937 but has all the comforts of home. YES! It has central heat !!! We love Twain Harte and we love our cabin. I know you will too.

Cozy cabin in the trees but convenient to everything
Peaceful Retreat
WOW! Thats all I can say! Thank you for the very nice review. I'm just sorry I couldn't make any snow for you guys! :) I hope you will return this summer. I know you'd enjoy Twain Harte twice as much as in the winter. We are so glad you enjoyed our cabin. After the house cleaner finishes cleaning the cabin she always reports back to me. She gave you guys a "Great Renters"rating! Thanks again!
