About this property

Minutes from Pinecrest Lake, Dodge Ridge Ski Resort, and the fabulous Sierras.

"The eh Frame" is your fairy tale come true. It's an adorable A-Frame chalet, nestled in an alpine forest - surrounded by multiple lakes, rivers, and trails.

Great for small families or couples seeking solitude and adventure. You'll be minutes from skiing/boarding, skating, snowshoeing , hiking, mountain biking, swimming, golfing, and boating.

Picture a quiet star-filled evening with snow quietly falling while you soak in the hot tub. Cozy up in the living room near the wood stove. On warm summer nights, sleep with the windows open - enjoying the symphony of woodland song.

As you travel east on Highway 108, you'll climb from the foothills to 6,000 feet of elevation in 30 minutes! Prepare for Alpine conditions (. . . and little to no mobile phone service).

Lovely location & excellent communication from hosts

We reserved this space to attend a family reunion in the area. After an initial mix up on my end, the hosts were extremely patient and accommodating to us to ensure that we had the best experience. I'd definitely recommend this space to couples, families, or friend groups.

Pine crest trip

Wife and I and our 2 month old stayed at this great location. It’s right off of hwy 108, 10 minutes to Pinecrest, and 15 minutes to Twain Harte. Very comfortable, has all necessities needed for a week stay. The neighbor was also very friendly.

Great Cold Springs Cabin

This Cabin was the perfect size for our family of 5 and the proximity to Dodge Ridge was very convenient. The cabin had extra mattresses under each bed upstairs, plenty of linens and towels, and a relaxing and clean hot tub to relax in after a long day on the slopes. The kitchen was well stocked and the fire pit and deck space made time at the cabin very enjoyable. The owners made check with a key pad entry very easy.

Good Stay

We had a great stay, cabin is cute and comfortable and really close to Pinecrest which is a beautiful place. Only negative is the patio door, it is very hard to open (hubby and son were the only ones who could open it) which we thought it would break the glass while trying, so only 2 times because we didn’t want that risk. The other door other door is in the bathroom and if someone is in the shower, you’re trapped inside or outside. We did notice it said in the notes the door had issues and was going to replaced but the notes looked old and I don’t think it’s safe with only 1 proper functioning exit. Fix that and we’ll be back!

I truly dislike giving a low star review but I feel my decision to stay here was partially based on the 10/10 reviews so I wanted to give my honest review so others might be aware. ProsExcellent communication with hosts and they were quick to order a replacement coffee pot when the top to original one went missing prior to my arrival.Beautiful area! Nice table outside with an umbrella but would recommed a tablecloth since it’s metal and got hot.Drive to Pinecrest is short and sweet.They have a trampoline and climbing tree, a rope swing for kids, and hot tub but we didn’t use them.ConsSliding door. I opened it once and then was afraid I couldn’t close it. Once closed I didn’t attempt it again. It’s super old and I think all of the rollers on the bottom are missing.Extremely dark cabin, even in the daytime, we struggled to see well enough to play a card game while doing some laundry.Scavenger hunt to find the light switches. Door on shower easily goes off the track.If someone’s in the bathroom, and sider can’t be opened, you have to wait until they're out of the bathroom to walk outside. (First step into the cabin from outside is into the bathroom.)Feels like an earthquake when someone walks upstairs (these were 140# people)Exposed raw sheetrock and a lot of electrical hanging throughout.

Cozy Retreat

A little hard to find but the owner mentioned that. It was just my 5yr old son and I. The house was cozy and had everything you'll need in the kitchen. Coffee + grinder was a plus .Could've used a couple more Bathroom shower towels though. The hot tub was a hit. And there was a cool rope swing along with a tree climb right next to the property. I give 4 star's only for the fact that the 2 bedrooms upstairs was significantly hot. And also the restroom shower was a bit dated and small. I'm 5'9" 180lbs and the shower was small for me. Could use a good upgrade that'll fit nicely in that bathroom. Other then that the host was easy to contact and answered all my questions. Had a bit of an ant problem which was why we kept everything in the fridge.. No TV but the projector was good. Could've used some better curtains to darken the view on the projector screen better.. Because we didn't use the upstairs we treated it like a studio. Ps. Don't leave any food out otherwise the ants will claim it.

Fantastic cabin stay

Stayed here during thanksgiving week with my family. What a wonderful place and location!! Interior was very tastefully decorated with a lovely living room area with wood stove and great beds and bedding. Loved the projector for a great movie experience! Well equipped kitchen. Thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub and the gas fire pit too. Just fantastic. Local area is great too - from a lovely forest service roads within walking distance to Pinecrest Lake and drive over Sonara Pass. Brit was very helpful and responsive too - thank you! Would definitely come again.

Wonderful weekend getaway

We had a wonderful long weekend at the Eh Frame. Alan and Brit were so helpful in providing us all the information we could have needed and have stocked their place with all the amenities you might need. Quiet neighborhood nestled in the woods with easy access to hiking yet close enough to some restaurants. We loved our time there and can't wait to come back!

About the host

Hosted by Brit Charlebois

Host profile image
Brit & Alan are originally from Canada. They now, with their daughter, call Santa Cruz home. Alan is a product designer and Brit works in construction of affordable housing, and they both love to surf and play in the snow.

Why they chose this property

We discovered and fell in love with Cold Springs in early 2021. Then we found our dream cabin - now dubbed "The eh Frame". It's cozy and stylish, ideally situated and easy to access - on it's flat lot.

What makes this property unique

The proximity to Dodge Ridge is surprising; it's a 10 minute drive. It's a refreshing change from the Tahoe crowds and a much easier drive as well.
