About this property

Log cabin house in historic Columbia

This is a gorgeous property settled at the edge of the state park land that goes for miles. Three acres on the property with lots of fun activities for the kids. A loft with pool table that converts to ping pong and dartboard, trampoline and rope swing outside. 3 acres of space on the property to roam and can also hike up through the state park land which is bordering our property. Both bathrooms have bathtubs, upstairs has a claw foot bathtub. Hi speed Internet and Wi-Fi.
By popular demand we have added a Mr Cool mini split AC unit in the upstairs loft and master bedroom areas along with the 1000 sq ft AC unit downstairs keeping the super hot days cool inside. It also heats for the Winter time. Each bedroom has its own character with none of the bedrooms stacked with beds.
The master bedroom has a loveseat and a vanity. There is also a bookshelf with a variety of books to choose from.
There are extra roll out beds in the hall closet and the living room couch has a hideaway bed. Each room has its own character with none of the bedrooms stacked with beds.

A quiet getaway for the first

We wanted to get out of town for the first and this was just right. Nice property and the quiet we were seeking. The owner was very clear about everything and we had no issues or problems at all. We gladly recommend staying here and I’m sure we will again!

Lovely house in Gold Country

My family (mom, bother, sister in law and 10yr old nephew) all met in Gold Country this year for thanksgiving. We had a great time and this house worked really well for us. It was big enough to hang out and had a big piece of land all around (it's right next to state park). It was comfortable and the wood burning stove (the main source of heat)n made everything cozy. It was fun to see the wild turkeys in the morning! The kitchen was pretty well equipped and we brought the necessities for making a Thanksgiving meal. John was super communicative, responsive and helpful, from directions to the house, how to use the TV and other house things. He also gave suggestions for seeing the towns nearby. I loved exploring Columbia, Sonora and Murphy's. I'd love to go back to this house again when we're in that area.

Columbia Log Cabin Get-away

We rented this house to show my niece and nephews the history of Gold Country. The location was great for this purpose.The house was stocked with everything we needed. The kids loved the trampoline and the ping pong table. We also love to cook and it was a great kitchen our culinary needs. I would recommend staying here.

Beautiful Nature Retreat

An amazing peaceful and quiet property in the middle of nature! This property served as a great "home base" for our family of 4, plus 2 dogs, to explore Gold Country over the 4th of July week. The house kept us cool and comfortable even during triple digit heat. John is an amazing host and is truly invested in making sure you enjoy your stay! As other reviews have mentioned, there are a lot of burs this time of the year, and we brought a "fur rake" with us that was a lifesaver for us and our dogs.

Family trip

Me, my husband, and nephew took a trip to this beautiful cabin. Let me just say this place was so wonderful. It was quiet, relaxing, just really nice. We can not wait to visit again. Also being so close to Columbia State Park was so cool, it brought me back to when I would visit with dad as a young child.

Glorious Getaway Again!

John's home and property are a slice right out of paradise. Quiet, peaceful and relaxing. This was our 3rd stay at this wonderful home. We absolutely love the property and the privacy. Nothing is more amazing than having coffee on the deck, listening to the birds and watching nature in action. It truly rejuvenates your soul! Thank you John for being such a phenomenal host and opening your home to us again! We look forward to our next stay.

A Slice of Heaven adjacent to Columbia State Park

A beautiful home just a few minutes drive from the downtown area of Columbia State Park. The owner was kind enough to call and chat about the property, which made us feel very comfortable. Lots of living space including a loft with a pool table and ping pong table. My son and I had quite a ping pong tournament. My daughter had a headache after touring Columbia and enjoyed a soak in the claw foot tub. The owner allowed our dog to come, so we enjoyed a gorgeous walk through the state park next the the property. The home is very clean and well maintained. It’s obvious the owners take pride in this beautiful home. Check in and check out was easy and reasonable. We definitely recommend this home!

Getaway in the woods!

This cabin is super cool, spacious, resourced (pool table, ping pong), and provided a wonderful atmosphere for our friend reunion. The owner was super helpful and communicative. Would return next time I'm looking for a gold country getaway.

Very cool house, great property, even has a resident cat! Dogs are allowed but with restrictions, make sure to ask in advance as we didn't know until the day before. Otherwise a nice stay in a fun area.

Excellent Place for Families: excellent Host

We stayed at this home in early August 2023. Two families , 3 adults and 4 kids amongst us . Three boys (ages 10 and 12) and a “surly” girl of 14. We all had a great time; John was great too as he checked in with me prior to arrival and gave specific directions on the home, getting up the “hill”, DO NOT slow down when approaching the hill (there is sign saying that too), and then at top of hill take a HARD LEFT (gps will not tell you to turn right)… John also gave great information and suggestions for excursions (Moaning Caverns , etc.) be careful not to overload washer, if you use it. The place was comfortable, had enough AC units to keep things cool; clean, ping pong table, billiards; tree house; kids had a ball exploring outside. We would consider going back ….thank you John

Great family vacation

Easy to get to the property absolutely no difficulty navigating the gravel and dirt road. Very comfortable and quiet at the end of the road. My 9 year old grandson enjoyed the trampoline outside and the ping pong table upstairs. Beds were comfortable and the air conditioning worked great as it was over 100 most of our time during our stay. The owner was very helpful and available for any questions. An added plus was the resident cat was as sweet as she could be. The family all fell in love with her. The neighbors dogs occasionally visited but were also sweet and friendly. I will most certainly book this house again on our next trip up to the area.

Firework getaway

We needed a place to stay to get away from fireworks for the dogs and this was a great spot. Super quiet and relaxing, tucked away in mother lode country. We spent most of our time playing pool and listening to music. Having the new AC units installed helped keep the place cool. Unfortunately, we were informed by the owner a few items the day before checking in that was a bit of a turn off and had we known before we booked, we may have gone elsewhere. 1) the road up to the driveway was reportedly fine if you had 4wd or don’t drive slow/stop. We had a RAV4 that took 5 attempts to get up that last bit of road. 2) the listing is described as pets allowed but owner states they’re only allowed in the non-carpeted areas. 3) there was a neighbor’s dog that roams the property off leash. Our dogs have been bit by loose dogs so we’re a little sensitive when it comes to strange dogs, country or not. So we didn’t get to spend as much time as we originally planned with the dogs outside on a long lead due to the neighbor’s dog loose. Homeowner was good about communicating with the neighbor but it didn’t stop the dog and quite frankly, if we had known about the dog ahead of time, we wouldn’t have stayed there. Other than those very specific complaints, the place was clean and relaxing. I just recommend updating the listing to reflect the dog limits in the home and that a 4wd is likely needed for that road.

Beautiful cabin!

The property owner connected with us before the visit to answer any questions. The cabin sits at the end of a short gravel road with lots of privacy! It was a warm 100 degrees during our stay but the A/C kept the cabin very comfortable. The kitchen has all of the supplies that you could ever need to cook but if you want to eat out, there are great restaurants about 10 min away. You can also pan for gold and take a wagon ride in the cute little downtown area nearby. Hiking and swimming are nearby as well. Overall, our experience at this cabin was great! Everything was super clean, well stocked, and the pool table/ping pong was a plus!

Great Columbia Getaway

This is a wonderful property in a great spot. A very peaceful and well-equipped retreat. Easy to Sonora and Columbia (obviously). But also a good base for trip to Calaveras Big Trees. Yosemite Valley is a little further (2 hours) but still worked nicely as a day trip (with early departure to ensure a parking spot!).
