Best stay

The moment we turned into the street we fell in love with the view. The house was cleaned and organized. No problems whatsoever. We really enjoyed our time there, there was no wifi, but we didnt lose cell reception, a little slow but we could manage, not an issue. Thank you for everything.

The house was just perfect size for our family. The kids enjoyed the VHS Disney movies. It was quiet and secluded but perfect distance to the hiking trail and lake. We would love to come back every year! Thank you for plenty of towels and bed linens.

Great access to the lake

Thank you for allowing us to stay in your cabin. Was a little warm and had to deal with too many yellow jackets but we had a great time. The grandkids loved the lower level of the cabin with the air hockey. Not a far drive to the lake. Was a pleasant stay. Thank you.

It's a great place for vacation.

We were not having much plans for outing. The lake is just a 10 minutes drive. Most of the time at home enjoying food and company with friends and family. Even we are group of 13 didn't much really realised we have only two bathrooms.

Great for family with kids

This was our second year renting this cabin and it is perfect for a large group with kids!! The kids absolutely love the loft area to play and sleep. Having their own space makes it so much more fun for them. The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and utensils for a full house. Also, Darlene is an AMAZING host and after 4 years we have had zero issues. She is always informative, timely in responses and accomodating!!

Good Time, but not because of the Cabin

I have read all the reviews before writing this. There are truths with the high ratings and low ratings. VRBO owns me no monies and can't wait for Darlene's comeback. The "Rustic Cabin" is good for large groups. Not really an appropriate place for older adults unless they can climb 3-4 flights of stairs everyday in altitude. I am from Colorado so the altitude did not bother me. Yes there is a fully stocked kitchen but not enough towels to clean up. The stove/oven was not clean, so when we turned it on it smoked pretty bad. The bedroom sizes are good. They provided one small towel and one facial towel per person. Had to make your own bed. Not a big deal. Blanket had holes in it. No towels in the bathroom, so when guests wash their hands after going to the bathroom, they are using your towel to dry off. There is a large deck in the front and back. Regarding the back deck; There were plastic chairs to sit on, but four of the chairs were broken. The deck was extremely dirty. We had to use a hose to clean off the deck, tables and chairs to sit out there. There is also a small bbq grill. It was also dirty and I had to clean someone's mess before I could even use it. It's about mid-size, so if you do bbq, you'll have to cook in shifts for a larger group. Back deck not very scenic. There is a junk yard or something above the property and a view of old rusted out cars lined the top. One review said there were exposed screws/nails on the railing. That was very true because my 90 year old mother cut her hand on one of them. Also one step was broken in half. We didn't call Darlene about it because we had called her twice already about an electrical plug not working and the family member staying in that room had to move because they had a C-PAP machine. Darlene said to check the breaker box. We did and there was nothing wrong. Then said we must be using too many fans. It was over 100 degrees in the cabin. No one's fault about the heat. We also called her to let her know that we found a live scorpion at the bottom of the stairs (WATCH YOUR STEP). She basically said, well it is the forest and there are scorpions in them." Honestly, I have been going the the mountains in California and Colorado and have never seen a scorpion. Based on Darlene's responses, why would I call her again about the stairs. Regardless of my review about the property, it the people that make the fun not the property and we did have a good time.

Cold Springs Memories

This trip was amazing!! Stayed in Nov with no snow. The house is perfect for a larger group. We put the kids on top floor, adults on middle floor, and gathered on first floor. Kids also had their own place to go in basement bottom floor to be kids and play air hockey. It was just perfect for us. We will be back.

The house size and layout was perfect for what we needed. Very comfortable and plenty of room to spread out. The well stocked kitchen was a plus! Our family had a fun week spending quality time without the interruption of the internet. Darlene was great to work with. We would definitely visit again. Thank you for sharing your property with us!

Our Annual Family Gathering

Each year we get together with our three adult daughters, their husbands, and our one grandchild (so far!). We need lots of open living space for meals and to play games etc. This year we chose Pinecrest. This house was the PERFECT size and location! As it is a cabin, it was more rustic than the usual homes we book on VRBO, but it was fine. Because of this and the size, I can see why it is so popular with youth groups, scout troops, etc. We are already looking at our calendars to bring a whole different side of the family up there soon! Just be sure to read all of the details about what you need to bring. You need to provide more essentials than what we have with previous VRBO bookings. But again, it was well communicated from the beginning. Enjoy this place!

About the host

Hosted by Darlene - A1 Vacations Customer Since July 1996

Host profile image
We have been serving renters for 40 years, with cabins of all sizes and from Pinecrest, Strawberry and Leland Meadows. From 1-7 bedrooms, sleeping 2-30, 1-4 baths. Great family fun vacation rentals. When we started 35 years ago the cabins didn't have TV, vcrs were new but we thought people would want the rest and relaxation of the great outdoors. The cabins had books and board games! There was no such thing as WiFi or cell phones. I still remember car phones in a bag in the 90's. Things have really changed since then. Now there's Verizon cell coverage. Originally I did it myself, booked, cleaned, hauled wood, shoveled snow. Then it became a family thing! My 7 kids grew up with the business. It's still very much a family business we all do our very best!

Why they chose this property

This beautiful ideal cabin home is centrally located for uphill and downhill activities. From Pinecrest Lake to Don Pedro. Dodge Ridge to Yosemite, Calavaras county as well. Every thing from Casino-Spelunking, Water Sports to live theater.
