vacation rental description
Located just six-tenths of a mile off Highway 108 on Old Strawberry Road, we are three miles to Pinecrest Lake, five minutes to Dodge Ridge Ski Resort, away from all highway noise, and at an elevation of 5600'.
During the snow season, the driveway will be unuseable with parking for only three cars at the road. If you have more cars, it will be necessary to park some at the school, and carpool to the cabin. It is a short walk to the cabin from your car, but even so, you may need to shovel some snow a few times during your visit, and you will definitely need boots to get in "the price of a winter wonderland I guess."
The main living area has a 13-foot-high ceiling with skylights, all knotty pine with hardwood floors. The beautiful wood-burning, rock fireplace features a quarter-log mantel and has a wood-burning Lopi stove. The fully-equipped kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and gas stove is open to the living room and dining area, combining as the "great room" with oriental rugs and leather couches. The deck is off the living room with a charcoal barbecue.
The first-floor bedroom, just down the hall from the full bath, is so sweet with wainscoted knotty pine walls, full closet, queen-size bed, and beautiful, peaceful wooded views.
There are two bedrooms upstairs. The first has a queen-size bed, knotty-pine and nothing to see but trees!! We call the third bedroom THE BUNKHOUSE mainly because of its size. It has two twin-size beds, 2 queen-size beds, and a sleeper couch. The second dish-television with DVD/VCR player
is here - a good hang out space with plenty of closet room as well. Both of these upstairs bedrooms are off the hall from the second bath with shower and tub.
In the summer, you are three miles from the lake and away from the lake campground's noise and campfire smoke. A short drive to the river or a great walk for you walkers, minutes to good fishing, horseback riding, trailheads, bike trails....a real mountain retreat. In the winter, this is where you come if you want snow and all it has to offer. The land is spacious enough that the kids will have a lot of fun in the snow right off the deck.
