Great stay in the heart of Twain Harte

Family Christmas Trip

What can I say? My family and I had a great time staying at this cabin. It was my husband and I and our three teenagers. As soon as we walked in, we were welcomed with Christmas lights and a small mini Christmas tree. The cabin has been newly renovated and I loved the decor. There are new appliances and the beds are comfy. We enjoyed our time sitting by the fire, playing games and opening up our presents. Couple of things to keep in mind. Get there before dark. It’s a bit dark walking up the path. There are some outdoor lights but for me and my eyes, I would have preferred more. The game room was a huge hit with the teenagers! The cabin is within walking distance of downtown. We went for a couple of walks during our stay, and stopped off at a local bar/restaurant to watch the 49er game. Very satisfied with our stay, and would most definitely return!

Escape to the Pines.

Nice property and location. Close enough to amenities but still in the pines. Hwy 108 takes you East to stunning locations for hiking etc. Would stay here again on our next excursion!
