Kitchen easy to work in, wonderful outdoor space, great firepit. Cabin comes with lots of toys to keep the little ones busy - thank you so much for that lovely surprise, Lisa! A must family destination to unplug, enjoy nature and the beauty of the sequoias!

Quaint Neighborhood, Very Tranquil Time Away

My daughter and I took a week's vacation and picked to stay in Camp Nelson! We both loved it! Camp Nelson is a very remote place, away from all the hoopla. The General Store, Pizza & BBQ Place, along with the Bar & Grill a mile away is helpful for things possibly forgotten.Lisa's cabin was perfect for us. Beautiful outside sitting places, gorgeous view from the balcony and inside living quarters was a blessing. The cabin in located in a quiet neighborhood with lots of roaming deer! The kitchen was well-equipped making meal prep easy. Plenty of linens, towels for kitchen and bath. Home was clean up on arriving, and bedrooms/beds were comfortable. Communication with Lisa was excellent. If you are looking for a peaceful, beautiful place to stay we highly recommend Camp Nelson and Lisa's Cabin. We will be back!

Cozy Cabin Weekend

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this cabin for a weekend of much-needed rest and relaxation, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the serene surroundings and the thoughtful touches throughout the property. The cabin itself was spotless, cozy, and well-equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The rustic yet modern design made it feel like a perfect blend of charm and convenience. I especially appreciated the spacious deck where I could sit and take in the beautiful views with my morning coffee. . Indoors, the fireplace provided a warm, inviting ambiance in the evenings, and the kitchen had all the essentials for preparing meals without hassle. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring I got restful sleep each night. Plus, the Wi-Fi connection was reliable, making it easy to stay connected when needed. Overall, this cabin was exactly what I was looking for: a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle. I would highly recommend it to anyone seeking a quiet retreat in nature. I can’t wait to come back!

Great escape!

This charming cabin was a great "home base" for our brief escape from city life. It was reasonably close to wonderful sites such as Dome Rock, the Trail of 100 Giants, Stagg Tree and many others. All are within a 30-45min drive and not-to-be-missed! Located in the Camp Nelson area, we also benefitted from nearby access to a stream for swimming and friendly interactions with knowledgeable locals. The cabin itself is comfortably appointed and very clean. We brought some basic groceries and made use of the amply-supplied kitchen. (If I had to be picky, I didn't love that the wood paneling made some parts of the cabin seem dim even in broad daylight.) Between the wrap-around porch, the front yard/fire pit, and the cozy interior, it was plenty of space for our family of 4 to enjoy togetherness without feeling claustrophobic. There was even a bottle of wine to welcome us! We appreciated all the efforts to make our stay enjoyable!

I passed along your appreciation of the new fire pit my 13 year old son built, he grinned ear to ear. It is always good to have a family enjoy our special cabin. Thank you for staying and come back again. Lisa

Get away from the city weekend!

We loved staying the weekend here! Thank you for the bottle of wine that was awaiting us on our arrival. First thing we see outside the living room window were 10 deer grazing in the front yard. The cabin was extremely clean and had everything we needed. We were lucky enough to have a very warm Saturday so we drove down to the river and hiked to a spot all our own. it was gorgeous. We had lunch at Pierpoint Springs restaurant. They have delicious hamburgers. We try and come up to Camp Nelson every year since discovering it about 7 years ago. Every time we come up we find the break we've been looking for. No wi-fi or cell reception (except at the restaurant). We usually play cards and look at the stars for entertainment and barbecue for dinner. We usually come up in the summer, it was nice to see what it's like at this time of year. Sunday was a colder day and it had rained Saturday night. We went to see the 5th largest Sequoia, Stagg tree, which is 3000 years old. Your cabin is one of our favorites now, for the location, right in Camp Nelson, and for the very good ambiance. We really hope to be back soon, thank you so much!
Response from VrboOwner on 21 March 2020
It is always special to see the deer walking through the back area of the cabin, I never tire of seeing them roam. I will pass on your comment of cleanliness to my housekeeper, she appreciates the nice comments. Thank you for choosing our cabin come back again. Lisa

Cabin in the Sequoia's

The area of Camp Nelson is a small, cozy community in a valley surrounded by the rugged High Sierra's and is very beautiful. Lots of pines, cedars and oak trees. There is not a lot to do there but go on local hikes as most sightseeing places of Sequoia are around a 3 - 4 hour drive. The exterior of the cabin itself was not what we expected in terms of the photos we saw online. The driveway is very rutted and difficult to maneuver unless you have a high profile vehicle. The decking and exterior wood of the cabin is in bad need of repair and paint, as is the foundation of the cabin which was evident by the warped floors inside the house. Although there is beauty all around, it is difficult to see if you are sitting on the front deck because the view is obscured by trees in the yard and many low hanging wires. The interior of the cabin is decorated in warm country style furniture and nick-nacks with a stone fireplace. The online photos of the inside of the cabin were more accurate than the outside and we enjoyed the coziness of the living room and dining room. The bathroom with the claw foot tub has had some water damage with part of the wall removed showing black mold which was a concern to us. The linoleum under the tub was also badly stained with possible mold underneath. We felt the rental fees were overpriced for what you get. Although we would not return, if you don't mind some of our concerns, this may be for you. Overall, we enjoyed ourselves meeting some of the locals and walking the neighborhood streets. There is a meadow nearby which is fenced and is mowed and watered daily. Dozens of deer hang out in the mornings and evenings making walks well worthwhile.
Response from VrboOwner on 21 March 2020
As a Certified EPA Renovator, there is NOT black mold growing in the bathroom. The discoloration of the vinyl in the bathroom is due to the vinyl glue having gotten wet from a leak we immediately remediated. We would never subject any guest to a hazardous situation. The deck is four years old and as it is south facing, the elements are quite harsh on the wood, especially this past dry winter and hot summer. It is scheduled to be treated this fall. While our cozy cabin is not a house, its age provides a charm that our guests have enjoyed and complimented for many years.

My family LOVES this cabin. It was our second time visiting and we'll be back. Love the remoteness, tranquility and the sights and sounds of wilderness. Lisa has great communication and a cozy home. Wifi is available at the cabin, but has its challenges outside of the cabin. Comfortable beds and linens, nicely stocked kitchen, great ambiance, and we LOVE the wrap around porch for deer sitings. Thank you again, Lisa

Wonderful Cozy Cabin

The cabin was absolutely wonderful, cozy and fun. Also Lisa was the most responsive and amazing host we have ever had! Loved it! That being said there are a couple of good to knows for families planning to come. 1. Check the weather! We came when temps in the surrounding areas were in the 90s and 100s due to a heatwave. The valley was 110 - Yikes! Lisa was kind enough to put in a portable AC, which made the cabin liveable but we could only venture out for a few hours at a time due to the heat. Also, several areas were closed due to fire danger. 2. If bringing kids make sure to watch the crumbs and keep food sealed. We woke up to 100s of ants all over the kitchen one morning due to a food bag that was not fully sealed. 3. The area right around the cabin was sadly affected by a fire meaning much of it is burned out so you will have to venture 20-30 mins out in either direction to get to some nice spots. We went to the lower coffee camp 30 mins down the hill and the trail of 100 giants 1hr up the mountain for some fun.

Cute cabin in small town to get away from everything!

We had an amazing time in and out of the cabin. We went on a couple short hikes, walked around the town, visited local store, and enjoyed the deer in the small meadow in the "center" of town. Thank you Lisa for making your home our home for the weeke. Everything we needed was available. The views from the deck were amazing especially at sunset.. Beautiful colors!! This was our first visit to the Sequoia National Forest and really enjoyed it. Its unfortunate that is suffered so much from the wildfires, but we definitely plan on returning when she starts healing. We have but one con, saying goodbye! We loved it here! ❤🏞⛰🌄🦌🐿🌲thank you!

Relaxing Mountain Getaway

My friend and I truly enjoyed our stay at this charming, vintage cabin. It’s cozy and comfortable, with many special touches to make us feel welcome. The bottle of wine was especially nice. The setting is peaceful and beautiful in a quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed being away from it all without being isolated. There is a local store with thoughtful essentials and a shopkeeper with helpful knowledge of the area. We were especially grateful that many great hikes and magnificent Sequoia trees are within very reasonable driving distance. Some are quite close! Overall, we had a wonderful time making memories we’ll cherish forever.

Rustic adventure

Nice property, clean well kept. Rustic in nature and totally livable. Area is a throwback to the past. Close to lots of interesting things to do. Go see the Alonzo Stagg Sequioa. Go tonRick Done, Needles and Trail of 100 Giants. Hiking bring your shoes and walking sticks. If you plan on getting back to some of the backwoods area bring a 4 wheel drive.
