About this property

Sugar Pine Cabin - Book your summer trip! The perfect family cabin!

(Please read last paragraphs before requesting to book)

Tucked among the pines and cedars of the Sierras, Sugar Pine Cabin offers an idyllic retreat for any season. Situated in Sugar Pine, California, along Sonora Pass (Hwy 108), it's just minutes away from the historic gold rush towns of Sonora, Jamestown, and Columbia. Perched at 4,500 feet, it lies between Twain Harte and Mi Wuk Village. The stunning Pinecrest Lake and Dodge Ridge Ski Resort are a brief drive away, with Yosemite National Park within reach for a day trip.

This spacious tri-level cabin nestles on a serene cul-de-sac. In the summer, guests can enjoy Sugar Pine Lake, a private haven merely a three-minute stroll from the cabin, featuring a child-friendly beach, diving platforms, and fishing spots, all within a secured and gated area accessible with a key.

Great attention has been paid to crafting a welcoming escape that caters to both adults and children. The expansive dining area serves as a hub for board games, crafts, or other diversions beyond meal times. The main floor, encompassing the dining, kitchen, and living areas, opens onto a large redwood deck furnished with picnic tables, offering views of the surrounding woods. The loft provides a secluded play space for kids, complete with a TV and DVD player. The lower-level game room is outfitted with classic arcade machines, an air hockey table, and even a claw machine, all set to free-play for endless entertainment.

For guest safety the cabin has an exterior camera overlooking the driveway. For additional information look for SugarPineCabin.

Very happy with this cabin as it’s tough to find a place for our crew of 13. Location was perfect with easy access to “fishing spots” for our grandkids. Kids also enjoyed riding bikes and playing in the lake. And the arcades were a huge hit. Thank you Eric for your hospitality.

Great house, great host!

The kids loved the upstairs room with all the beds and their jaws dropped when they saw the lower level with the arcade. :) Eric was very communicative and kind - he worked with us on check in and even came to un-jam the air hockey table for us. The kitchen was clean and well stocked; the TV setup was easy to use and welcome after a day of sledding. We had a great time and would go again!

Family trip

We really liked the place, location and neighborhood.Lake is amazing, very close to the house.The house is spacious for 12-14 people. Our kids enjoyed playing games. The only thing that we would like to improve was BBQ grill that is old and was hard to use. Our family enjoyed the stay and would love to return next time and definitely recommend to others.Thank you.

Great Sugar Pine cabin

We enjoyed our stay! Spacious and clean. Huge dining room! It was so nice for our group to dine all together. We had lots of fun in the downstairs Arcade room. Lots of laughs during air hockey tournaments! Plenty of board games to choose from. This was a winter stay, and we were warm and cozy inside. Excellent location. A short drive to convenient stores and Dodge Ridge. Quiet neighborhood and friendly neighbors! The owner Eric is also friendly and responsive. Highly recommend this cabin. Thank you Erica and Christine for sharing your cabin and allowing us to make more fun and lasting memories!

White Christmas

We were hoping for a little snow during our trip but the owners and friends in the area told me you may get a little but it usually snows heavily in January. To our surprise there was back to back snow storms, it was beautiful and looked like a hallmark movie, we definitely had a white Christmas so much that we were snowed in for awhile , the home itself was perfect for our family and the arcade was a huge hit. They had plenty of games and cable including Netflix to keep everyone entertained while we were snowed in. We also experienced a fluke power outage which was not fun but that’s Mother Nature for you, the owner (Eric) stayed in contact with us as much as possible during this time but they were also experiencing outages. We definitely made long lasting memories on this trip and look forward to coming back.

Family Fun

We had such a great time staying at Sugarpine Cabin. Eric, the property owner, was great from start to finish and always available when we had questions about the cabin and the area. The kids all loved the game room. I booked the cabin with the 4 teenagers in mind, but it was the 3 year olds who couldn't get enough of the video games and air hocky table. The access and proximity to the lake was amazing. We were there every day swimming and fishing. We took the kids to Pinecrest one day thinking the teens would like the busier lake but they all just wanted to get back to the quiet private lake and the cabin. We can't wait to go again, and will stay at Sugarpine Cabin fir sure!
