About this property

Enjoy Hearthstone Chalet Where Mi-Wuk Village Meets the Forest

Our cozy, yet spacious chalet is located where Mi-Wuk Village meets the Stanislaus National Forest. The chalet is on over half an acre and has three levels with more than 1600 square feet. Mi-Wuk Village is above the snow line, yet only 150 miles from the Bay Area.

The main floor opens into a cathedral ceilinged room that includes the living room, dining room and kitchen. Sliding glass doors lead out to a large deck with a beautiful view of the forest and the sounds of a stream. This floor has two bedrooms and a full bath. Upstairs is a large loft bedroom with a half bath. Downstairs is a large family room with two pull-out couches (comfy for sitting and sleeping), another full bath and laundry.

The Stanislaus National Forest is Hearthstone’s backyard. Discover great hiking at various difficulty levels or just hang out on the deck and enjoy the view and sounds. The cabin has games, puzzles, and a hammock. Pinecrest Lake, which is 15 minutes away, offers swimming, boat rentals (kayaks, paddle-boats, canoes, sailboats, and motorboats), and great fishing.

The small town of Mi-Wuk Village is one mile away and Twain Harte has great shopping just three and a half miles down the mountain. Enjoy wildflowers in the spring. And in the winter, Dodge Ridge Ski Resort is only 15 miles away. Cross-country skiing, snowmobiling, and sledding are nearby.

The cabin easily sleeps 10 people. Each bedroom on the main floor has a queen-size bed. The loft bedroom has a queen-size bed and two twin beds. The two full-size futon couches in the family room make into comfortable beds. Each bed has a warm, down comforter and soft pillows. There are plenty of extra blankets. We now have full cleaning service, so no need to do any laundry prior to leaving.

The well-equipped kitchen is stocked with basic spices, oils, and condiments and has place settings for 10. We have sleds in the winter and inner tubes for the summer. A washer and dryer are in the family room. There is a large screen smart TV with streaming in the downstairs rec room.

We ask that guest bring a maximum of 3 cars in the winter due to limited parking.

Cabin review

We just got back from our stay at this beautiful quiet place. It was perfect for a family of 6. The kids loved the fact that they all had beds and enjoyed the quiet family room down stairs. The wife and I had enough space to have our own little quiet time and drink some wine. It is also located close to dodge ridge and Leland high sierra snow play.. can’t wait for next year, hopefully this place will be available.

Great family getaway

My family had a great time here. Some of us spent time at dodge ridge snowboarding. Others went sledding nearby. We had 3 couples with 1 infant and 1 teen. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space. I would rent here again.

Great getaway property

Had a relaxing restful time at Hearthstone with just myself and my cat Buddy. He enjoyed learning about stairs for the first time and loved being “crazy-kitty” jamming up and down them. Would be ideal for a family getaway with multiple levels for family fun and games and plenty of sleeping options.

Great cabin nestled on a quiet cul-de-sac. Perfect for a couple of families but also worked well for just me and my wife. A little dated but all the furniture was comfortable and clean. Rinda was very responsive. Would definitely stay again.

We haven’t had the pleasure of staying at the house yet, due to extreme weather conditions, but Rinda has been absolutely wonderful to work with. She was honest with us, more than understanding with rebooking another weekend and with no extra cost! We can not wait to stay in her house and have a memorable family vaca!!

A wonderful cabin in the middle of woods sorrounded by all modern amenities

Me and my family enjoyed a week full of stay..the property owner is so friendly and caring. My initial reservation was for 4 nights, after staying there for first night, we requested for an extension. Mrs. Rinda whole heartedly accepted pur request and extended our stay. Overall we have wonderful experience in Heatherstone..we look forward to visiting once again

About the host

Hosted by Rinda Bartley

Host profile image
This property is owned by the Ibrahim-Bartley family, located in the Bay Area. We go up as often as we can, though not nearly as much as we would like. We love this cabin and its surroundings, and we are close with the neighbors. We therefore ask all of our guests to be sure to respect the people who live in MiWuk Village year-round so that they continue to welcome us!

Why they chose this property

We all love the beauty of the Sierra mountains. We chose to be at the snow line so we would have a lot of Sugar Pines and Cedars, but not too far up the mountain so it would be closer to home. We like that it is only 140 miles from the Bay Area. The cul de sac makes it a calm setting.

What makes this property unique

The two sets of large sliding glass doors that lead to a deck with a view only of trees makes the cabin feel so secluded. We love the three levels and the three bathrooms. It means that you can bring up a lot of people and not feel crowded. The location makes it easy to get to stores in Twain Harte or Sonora, and equally easy to get to the Higher Sierras and Pinecrest Lake.
