Perfect Ski Cabin

What a wonderful cabin for a family ski trip. The proximity to Dodge Ridge is incredible. The kitchen holds what you will need for family meals. The open floor plan is ideal for a group gathering. We were able to squeezing 9 people around the table for dinner. The bedroom set up allows for multiple families. The beds are comfortable. The view from the decks is gorgeous. The lower level pool room is wonderful for game time and provides an additional sleeping space. Driveway easily held two SUV's. The host is organized, provided all information needed ahead of time and was easy to communicate with.

Summer fun

Rented a cabin this year trying something new instead of the traditional tent camping an I have to say it was well worth it. The cabin was clean, cozy and well kept. I look forward to renting it again. Thank you for sharing ur cabin.

Place was awesome, just don't stay for a couple days. My biggest regret is not staying a week.

Great place and location, just the MapQuest took us on a mari-go-round trying to find the actual cabin. But I'm telling you, the out side decks, game room, kids lost in their own adventure and awe of the place. We forgot toilet paper so had to drive down to get some and the big knives for cutting we're dull but my babies, friends, and family all had a blast and really had fun. I was a bit shocked at how crowded the lake was for as small it is, so with no reception for most, you need to communicate the unloading and parking so to not have to drive around for over an hour trying to find the rest of your party when going to Pinecrest lake. I give a 9.5 or of 10

Loved our time in Strawberry

Darlene, I wanted to thank you for making our trip so enjoyable. the cabin met all of our needs, and everyone had a fabulous time. Plenty of room for all and in great proximity to Pinecrest. It was a very hot week so it was somewhat uncomfortable at night, but it didn't prevent anyone from having a great time. Thanks again. RD

Good house for family getaway

This house fulfills the basic needs of a vacation home; bathroom, beds and a kitchen. Its clean and well kept. A few things around the house could use some updating to help boost ratings and favorability. The location isn’t the best in terms of reception and WiFi but it’s 10 minutes from Pinecrest Lake. The price is great and fit all of my family without breaking our wallets; Overall I’d stay here again. Thanks Darlene!

Old and needs repairs!

Not happy with the kitchen-old utensils and pots and pans must be 40 years old. Upstairs bathroom toilet seat(wood) is split and dangerous and child sized. Many entertainment items listed did not work. Blinds were broken, screens torn and the beds uncomfortable! We will not be renting this cabin anymore.

Had a nice time... WiFi was difficult

We had a nice time, it was comfortable, everyone had their own room to stay in. The one big downside was the Wi-Fi. I can understand something being slow when you’re in the mountains, but when only one device could connect at a time and there were times when no one count connect at all, it is very frustrating. Especially when you don’t have cell phone service. You could WiFi call to explain the problem if you could connect to the WiFi but it’s slow and there are times your can’t even connect. On the second day of our stay I finally managed to use a WiFi app to see the connection speed. It said 3 devices were connected. I was 1 and no one else in our group was connected. Something was fishy. I had to drive up to Prinecrest just to get service.

OK cabin in the woods

This is a nice cabin. Great location for getting to Pinecrest Lake and hiking around Strawberry area. Loved the wood stove, and the house gets very very warm & cozy. Pretty neighborhood. Very quiet, hardly saw a soul. Overall, the cabin could use some updating. The beds are old and rather uncomfortable. Mattresses haven't been changed in years. Springs in your back & a bit saggy. The carpets throughout the house are pretty dirty--it's very low-pile carpet that's beige so you can see the wear and tear. The upstairs bathroom shower stall leaks so you have to be strategic with the angle of the showerhead. The newer bathroom on the main level was nice and had good water pressure. All of the appliances worked well and we enjoyed making Thanksgiving dinner here. I think for the money being charged I would expect a slightly more updated home. There were ZERO and I mean ZERO supplies. Yes, it says it DEEP in the listing about bringing all your own stuff, but I have never had a rental house that didn't provide a starter roll of toilet paper and some dish towels. Luckily I read the fine print and had packed accordingly, but it feels a bit excessive to have to bring your own EVERYTHING. Read the entire listing IN DETAIL. No TP, paper towels, trash bags, dish towels, sponge, dish soap, hand soap etc. TP, dish soap, body soaps (sealed of course, due to covid) and a few dish towels, and a sponge would be more welcoming and would feel less cheap. There are any number of ways to provide the basics in a sanitary way, even during covid. If you can leave silverware and dishes, I'm sure you can provide hand & dish towels, especially because there is a washer & dryer (bring your own soap) onsite. All of the appliances work, but they are VERY old, so I would suggest an update merely for the energy efficiency and cost savings alone. Also that one child lock on the lower cupboard and not a single other one is an annoyance. You keep trying to open it over and over again. Just take it off. Overall nice place, good location, but in need of updating and some TLC.

Great location, plenty of space, house on the older side

We rented the location for a week in early September. The location is great, its a short drive from Pinecrest lake and the river running through Strawberry. The river is technically walkable, but its a long, long walk. We had family coming and going, at the peak there were 6 adults and 6 kids and they fit fine, if not a little snug due to the bottom level being only open to 18+. Pool table down there, I assume that is why. The house is functioning, but it is clearly in an "old rental" state, where there is not a lot of financial incentive to make big fixes. The windows and screens were old 20 years ago. Screen door missing downstairs, upstairs screen door functioning poorly. Creaky deck appears safe (I got under and inspected), but its going to need work in the not-too-distant future. To be fair, the front bathroom and kitchen countertops had been updated. Wifi worked, but very slow. Don't plan on any heavy data usage. Dishwasher worked fine, washer & dryer there but didn't use. plenty of dishes of all sorts. As they clearly state, bring your own toiletries and such. Paper towels, toilet paper, soap-- bath, dish, laundry, etc. There were towels there, enough to get the job done, but if you like your plush towels, bring them. Property management was very responsive and communicated well, from my interactions I can see why someone would hire them to manage their property. PG&E was planning to shut off power and they came by the house to alert us beforehand (Thank you). Summing it up, location and management great, house big but old and not in best repair. If competitively priced and you like the area, go for it.

It has been a pleasure to serve thousands of guests over the years. We do our very best to make each stay a great experience. The crew works exceptionally hard to keep everything going!
