About this property
THANKSGIVING 2025 AT SUGAR BEAR! BOOK AT FALL PRICES! SKI AT DODGE RIDGE! BOOK!
Sugar Bear Cabin is at the top of the mountain located in the gateway to the High Sierras. You can avoid driving up the mountain to get to all of the winter-time activities. Also, our neighborhood keeps our roads plowed twice a day. We don't allow anyone to park in the cul de sac so it is kept clear for plowing.
We are nestled into a forest set back from the street. Enjoy this tree house like cabin that offers privacy and comfort.
We provide complimentary coffee, cocoa, tea and sugar condiments. We have instant hot water at our coffee station too.
We are a fully loaded cabin, just bring the food and fun! Check the amenities section. Don't bring up more than you have to. We try to stock the cabin to where all you need is your clothes and food.
We are upgrading the cabin to a 52" smart TV for streaming. More upgrades are coming by DECEMBER! We are adding a new queen bed and mattress to SOON sleep 8, New deck cushions to make it even snazzier, a 2nd coffee maker and a video game console! We are always looking to improve your stay! This is NOT Grand ma's Cabin!
Our location is near 2 grocery stores and a mini mart that sells fresh food. It doesn't price gouge either. It has the best burger and burritos around! All are located within 2 to 10 minutes directly off of highway 108 which is kept plowed.
Sugar Bear becomes magical in the winter-time. Up-close snow covered Sugar Pines with an extra large deck perfect for building frosty or other snow creatures! We keep 5 sleds to enjoy sledding. Pinecrest lake is 5 minutes away and great for kiddos to enjoy safe and free sledding. Grab cocoa at Pinecrest Market Hut or enjoy a winter BBQ! Leland snow park is just down the highway. It is a lodge style snow tubing for adults and kiddos. Hang out at the outdoor viewing deck while sipping a glass of wine or beer with lunch. The staff helps the kiddo toddlers carry the tubes and they ride up to their own special hill right on the snow tube. Inside there is a warm fireplace to enjoy food and treats while viewing the tubers.
We are 12 minutes away from Dodge Ridge Mountain Resort! Easy access on snow plowed roads. Just 14 min away from Sugar Bear Cabin.
Explore the many nearby Gold Rush towns or state parks. Historic Columbia State Park is a gold miners' town set in the 1800s! Enjoy the many stores, bakeries, and restaurants.
Rail Town 1897 State Park offers train rides, and old trains to explore! Set in the another fun Goldrush town Jamestown, CA! Enjoy antique shopping and delicious foods and desserts!
Murphy's is wine country with 28 wineries! Enjoy your day sipping wonderful California wines. All of them are unique and in a mountain vineyard setting! Wintertime is magical.
Our family truly appreciates each guest, and we truly hope you enjoy your stay at Sugar Bear Cabin!

About the host
Hosted by Renee Scolari Venegas
My husband Oscar and I relocated from the coast of North Monterey County to the Sierra Foothills near Yosemite in 2018. We have one daughter who is a Yale University gradute, with honors, phi beta kappa, Magna Cum Laude in New Haven Connecticut. As an investor and Realtor we have owned many properties throughout the years. We are excited to own our first vacation rental property. We have enjoyed renovating the cabin, spending time there with our family, and now sharing it with you and your family or friends. We hope you take in nature, make memories with family and friends, and leave with happy vibes.
Why they chose this property
We purchased this property due to the location, location and location. Sugar Bear Cabin is located in a special and quaint community called Cold Springs. It sits at an elevation of 5,700 feet, in the Gateway of the High Sierras. It is surrounded by breathtaking High Sierra mountain views. We are 5 minutes away to Pinecrest Lake, and 15 minutes to Dodge Ridge Ski Resort. There's ice skating at Long Barn Lodge, snow tubing at Leland Snow Play and jet skiing, water tubing and skiing, or fishing at Beardsley Lake. Black Oak Casino is 20 minutes away where the whole family can enjoy bowling and arcade fun for all ages on the lower level.
What makes this property unique
Sugar Bear Cabin is unique because it is perched approximately 20' above the ground, and set back into the forest. It feels like a tree house. We are in a cul de sac and away from road noise. You can hear and feel nature. There is the beauty of the wind as it passes through the trees and a quiet peacefulness you can feel while relaxing on the deck, or sitting inside on a snowy day with views from every room to enjoy a spectacular winter wonderland as the snow gently falls. The sun sets between the trees and evokes the peace, and beauty of nature. Due to the unique way the cabin nestles into the forest on this large lot, it gives you the privacy! It doesn't get better than that!
