About this property
Find your vacation here, at Merrynook Cabin
Two bedrooms, one bath. And a tiny bedroom for fun. Full kitchen, cozy living room. Laundry. BBQ. Garden patio. Only 20 minutes to Sequoia Kings Canyon National Park. Or stick close to the cabin all day and have a real vacation. Find your here, Here.
Built in the 1930s as a restaurant (serving chicken!) when logging was a way of life in the southern Sierra Nevada foothills, today Merrynook is an art-filled garden cabin just a short drive from Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks and Sequoia National Forest.
Bachrun and Mahalia LoMele own and manage Merrynook, and its sister cabin next door, Fivespot. They have been vacation hosts in Pinehurst since 2008.

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Mahalia LoMele

Bachrun and I have lived in Pinehurst since 2003. We opened Fivespot Cabin to the public in 2008, and Merrynook in 2016. Former New Yorkers, we have adjusted to the rural, mountain life without abandoning the arts we love (music and visual art). Come see us!
Why they chose this property
Pinehurst was a flourishing logging community for decades. The Pinehurst Lodge, a short walk from Merrynook, is a locally-owned and operated restaurant in a 100-year-old former sawmill.
Cedarbrook, an early-20th century cabin community built by Mennonite families from nearby Reedley around a lovely year round stream, is a 10 minute walk away. Other nearby historical logging sites are Neff's Camp and Millwood.
Today, small cabins used as summer homes, rentals, and by full-time residents, are scattered throughout the forest. Pinehurst's year-round population is around 350.

What makes this property unique
This is a cabin for exploring books, art, even for exploring the piano on the front porch. Merrynook is conducive to deep relaxing and taking care of yourself, family, and friends. Just chill out without your phone (although there's wi-fi if you have to!), and get back in touch with your simpler life.
