Beautiful, well-tended cabin in the woods

We recently spent 6 days at this really cozy property while we played in the snow up at Dodge Ridge. The kitchen was really well appointed, the bedrooms were comfy and everything was clean and well taken care of.The kids had a lot of fun hanging out in the living room near the decorative fireplace playing board games and reading. The streets were quiet and great for walks. It is about 20 minutes from Dodge Ridge, and much less to the lake. The host was very responsive throughout!

Snow trip with the family

This cabin was a perfect fit for our 3 generations of our family to enjoy a trip to the snow. The home is outfitted with everything you might need from a fully equipped kitchen to a children's room with duplo, books, and a rocking sheep 😀 our 2 & 4 year old loved it! The location is great as well! There was plenty of snow right outside the cabin and it is very close to both dodge ridge and Leland's if you want a large hill for skiing or tubing.

First snow trip for my Grandchildren

We had a lovely time on our snow vacation. Leland’s snow park was a blast! The house had a great kitchen with all the amenities. My grandson Loved the bunk beds & the main floor living area was perfect for little ones to run around. Beautiful views from the back deck too. I would definitely rent this home again.

Awesome cabin nestled in a wonderful community

We had a wonderful time at the cabin. It was furnished beautifully and had everything that we needed to have a wonderful stay. We had snow and loved having the kids be able to step right outside to make a snowman or play in the snow while we relaxed inside. The kitchen was awesome for me since I love to cook. It was spacious and had a beautiful view. We had a lovely time and would love to come back and visit again!

Beautiful and cozy

Great place overall. Beautiful location and deck is surrender with pines. The house has a full equip kitchen. We did a lot of cooking and did not miss a single thing from home. The only downside is that there are no blackout window blinds and they can do better with cleaning the blinds and having a stronger internet.

Best Cabin Ever

We have rented a dozen cabins in the Pinecrest area over the years. While some cabins may have had better locations, this cabin was the cleanest, most luxurious, most comfortable, and best equipped. I subtracted a star because the weather was hotter than normal and the upstairs was uncomfortably hot at night. If you come during the heat of summer, bring air mattresses -- sleeping outside on the beautiful deck would have been spectacular!

Stay Number 3

This is our third year staying in this cozy home. The check-in process is easy, communication with owner is quick & clear, it’s clean, and all the necessities for cooking & bbq’ing. The beds are comfortable and all the decor & added amenities make you feel comfortable, cozy and safe. The deck is inviting to have your morning coffee, the street is great for an evening walk & it’s fun to rate cabins on our walks too. 😊 The lake is about 8 min away. The home is perfect for our family of four. We have made lasting memories with game nights, movies and long walks at this home the past three years. We are already thinking of year four.

Our family getaway

The property was very nicely laid out kid friendly with the armoire full of kids toys and games and the playroom upstairs. Nice to sit out on the deck and let the kids play knowing there all exits were secured with Gates. My only complaint was the morning we were leaving we were without power for almost 4 hours which meant no coffee to start our day and breakfast was pretty Slim Pickens for the kids, cold sausage and eggs from the previous day. It would have been nice to receive some sort of compensation but when I shared this "hiccup" nothing was mentioned or offered up.

Wonderful Winter stay

We loved this place. The owner was very communicative! Even though it doesn't have WiFi, all the games and videos made the forced technology break very fun. It snowed A LOT while we were there, and the community was very helpful. Roads were plowed by 7:30am to help with getting out. It was very helpful to be able to park in the garage. Shovels were right there to clear a tiny bit of driveway, and we had no issues with driving to or from the cabin in the snow (without 4x4 drive- but YES Chains). It is 20 minutes door to door to Dodge Ridge, and we had the best time! The storm caused the power to go out our last night, but the owners had planned for that with extra blankets, flashlights and lanterns in easily findable places. We felt warm and safe, and can't wait to book again!

Best Mountain Retreat!

We couldn't have had a better time at this mountain home. The place exceeded all the expectations. There was everything we could have needed to enjoy our stay. The proximity to Dodge Ridge Ski Resort was a definite plus. The home was clean, cozy and had all the comforts you could want during the winter in the mountains.

Women’s kayaking trip

This was a beautiful property. Diane was very communicative and helpful. We loved having the air conditioning to with 3 older, menopausal women! We had so much fun kayaking Pinecrest Lake and the deck in the evening. There is no wifi, however my friends phone was able to connect through her data service, mine didn’t work though. So I just unplugged! Very relaxing girl’s trip. We plan to return!

Great stay!

We really enjoyed our stay and are appreciative of the owners sharing their home. The home is easy to get to, clean and cozy! The house is close to Pinecrest Lake and Dodge Ridge which makes it nice. Knowing there is an AC in the home was comforting even though it wasn’t hot enough to use during our stay. The house has all the amenities needed, we just had to bring the food and some movies from home. The house is very well maintained. The view from the deck is just beautiful & we enjoyed drinking our coffee in the morning overlooking the valley of trees. We will be booking again in the future!

Great location, great cabin!

Everything was super clean when we arrived, which I greatly appreciated. There’s definitely a rustic pine cone theme going, which may not be for everyone, as well as a couple of religious wall decorations, but the cabin itself was lovely. My family was very comfortable. The only recommendations I would make to future guests are: 1) bring your own washcloths, as the supply was limited (abundant supply of posh towels, though!) and 2) if you are going to be arriving on a winter night, reach out to the host to request she turn the heat on for you. We arrived at 10:30 at night with our kid asleep in the car to a 49 degree house. It took over an hour to warm up, which would have been ok in the day, but it was challenging at night. Thankfully the cabin comes with a washer & dryer, so my husband thought of putting our daughter’s bedding in the dryer to warm it up before bringing her in to bed. Diane left us a lovely bottle of wine, though, much appreciated. Super easy to get to Dodge Ridge to ski, and nice walks up and down the development roads.

About the host

Hosted by Diane Gilbert

My husband Jay and I purchased our home in the Peter Pam development when my son James was 2 years old. We bought it from the original owners who lived in Southern California, so the home was rarely used and everything was "like new". We have enjoyed snowy family Christmas' here as well as summers playing at nearby Pinecrest Lake. Being from nearby Oakdale, my husband has fond memories of Pinecrest, when as a child he spent summers here camping with his family.
I have enjoyed decorating our mountain home, mixing vintage pieces, including many old postcards and pictures of Pinecrest from years past with new comfortable furnishings. I think you will find our home to be a relaxing place with all the modern conveniences.
Now that our son is older he prefers to spend weekends at home playing with friends, so we are making our home available to you. We trust that you will enjoy it as much as we have and create many special memories of your own.
