As usual, the cabin is professionally cleaned prior to and after your stay which includes clean sheets and towels.
Private lake access for swimming and fishing in the Summer! Easy access to Highway 108 and only 2.5 hours from the Bay Area! Easy access to Dodge Ridge and snow play in the Winter.
Welcome to my Mountain Retreat. I hope that you will find it comfortable, tranquil and well equipped. My home is about a 3 minute drive to “downtown” Twain Harte, 15 minute drive to the Black Oak Casino and an easy 30 minute drive to Dodge Ridge Ski area. There are many nearby lakes and streams for fishing or a hike! The home is on a level lot with easy access to Highway 108. Our guests have access to Sugarpine lake which has swimming and fishing in the Summer! Note: Dogs are not allowed at Sugarpine lake and not allowed to be left alone in the house while you are out unless crated. We also have a large fenced dog run area. Please clean up after your dog and dispose "poop" in the outside trash can.
This 1150 square foot home has two bedrooms and two full baths and is not your typical old rundown cabin. This updated home has tons of mountain charm with knotty cedar ceilings, plank bamboo floors. It has been cosmetically remodeled with fresh paint, new floors and granite counters in the kitchen. The two bedrooms have brand new queen mattresses and very nice/new “lodge” style furnishings. Check out the pine log bed in the upstairs master bedroom and the Ranch decor in the downstairs bedroom. Both bedrooms and the living room have ceiling fans for your comfort during warm weather. In both bedrooms and the living room, we recently installed mini split air conditioning systems for your Summer comfort! We also have central heat and a fireplace for Winter comfort.
In the Living room you will find a “lodge” patterned couch and love seat as well as a brand new full futon which can be used as an additional sleeping area. The wood stove, 55 inch flat screen Smart TV and DVD/Blue ray player makes this room very comfortable to hang out in! I have a large number of Dvd’s that you can feel free to watch or you can certainly bring your own to view. We recently installed a new “Smart Tv”. Vizio offers quite a number of free tv options and you may also log into whatever streaming apps you may have access to. I have a very good Xfinity High Speed cable Internet (200+ mps). The internet can support work or school from home if needed. If you play, there is a guitar hanging on the wall. It is not a toy, so adults only please!
The large kitchen is fully equipped with newer appliances and tools for most basic cooking needs. It also contains a kitchen table which can seat six. You will also like the mason jar lighting fixtures with Edison style bulbs! There is a selection of table games also for your enjoyment.
In the Summer months you can enjoy the nice deck out back which includes tall cedars, seating and a BBQ. Also, I have private lake access at Sugar Pine Lake which I can offer to my guests.
My home will comfortably sleep six guests, if you use the futon in the living room. Note: The two Queen beds have new mattress covers and bedspreads that are frequently laundered. We provide sheets, blankets and pillows and they will be clean and the beds will be made with clean sheets when you arrive. I do not provide sheets, pillows or blankets for the futon, so please bring your own or sleeping bags. We also provide each guest a bath towel, hand towels and wash cloths. Please bring your own beach towels in summer. Please compare apples to apples when booking your Twain Harte vacation home as many do not provide sheets or towels.
If you find anything that is out of order or not up to standard, please let me know. I am generally available by email for non-urgent matters and phone or text for urgent situations.
I rely on positive feedback from my guests. After your stay, it would be greatly appreciated that you post positive feedback to VRBO!
I ask that you treat my home like it is yours and take care of it. I love it here!
You will not be disappointed with your stay at my home. Again, compare Apples to Apples when choosing where to stay in the Twain Harte area. Thank you so much and enjoy your stay in beautiful Twain Harte!
NOTE: I DO NOT TAKE CHECKS, MY PROPERTY IS POPULAR AND IS BOOKED ON A FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED BASIS VIA A VALID CREDIT CARD. IF YOU ARE NOT PREPARED TO PAY VIA CREDIT CARD QUICKLY, YOU MAY GET BUMPED OUT BY ANOTHER TRAVELER. I AM SORRY IF THIS MAY HAPPEN, BUT PLEASE DON'T HOLD ME PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE.
Also, I will not be held responsible for power outages, interruptions in wifi or cable tv service, fire or weather related issues. This is a cabin in the mountains and weather sometimes plays a factor.
