Serene Strawberry Mountain Cabin - minutes to Pinecrest and Dodge Ridge
Within just a few miles of both Pinecrest Lake and the Dodge Ridge ski area, there's plenty to do at the Storybook Cabin right within reach. Relax in the pristine waters of Pinecrest Lake where you can picnic on the beach or paddle to secluded corners of its shores. Minutes away is Dodge Ridge, a family-owned ski area that hosts many activities in summer and winter.
The south fork of the Stanislaus river is a short walk with popular fishing spots and places to enjoy the area's natural beauty. A seasonal creek runs along side the cabin through mid summer and brings soothing ambience day and night.
The cabin's kitchen was recently remodeled with all new stainless steel appliances and necessary amenities of a well stocked kitchen for every meal from Holiday dinners to pancake breakfasts. Dine on the large dining room table for extra comfort seating the entire family or enjoy a meal on the outside deck beneath the Pines.
Three bedrooms upstairs comfortably sleep 7 with two queen beds and and a twin over a full bunk with comfortable new mattresses. There's also a second bath upstairs with shower. All three bedrooms and two baths are fully stocked with new linens and towels.
There is currently no wifi, but your cell phone will work if you have Verizon (the only carrier that works in Strawberry). The tv in the living room has a dvd player and a few dvds, however, it's doubtful you will be watching much tv with so much to appreciate outdoors.

Enjoyed are stay at the serene cabin. Convenient location for hiking, fishing, taking a walk with you dog. The cabin was clean and enjoyed the updated kitchen. Beds were comfy too.
The cabin was very nice. Very up to date. We only had one issue. One of us plugged the toilet, I had to borrow a plunger from the neighbor. I would recommend to have a plunger on hand.
Loved the cabin! I spent three nights here, the perfect cabin for friends, family and kids. It is well located in Strawberry, short hike or drive to Pinecrest Lake. Well-stocked kitchen and clean bedrooms and bathrooms, awesome propane fire pit and Weber grill. This is the perfect cabin to relax and refresh, if you plan to fish it’s a short 7-10 walk to the river!

Wish This was My Everyday home
Very Nice,Clean,Quiet and well kept home.
Minutes from Lake Pinecrest. Everything I need was available, no problem. 100% Satisfied with my stay.
THANK YOU LAURA
What a great spot to launch our week in Strawberry/Pinecrest. The house was as advertised and the kitchen was well stocked with necessary dishes and appliances. Owner was prompt and easy to get ahold of. We figured out the awning - directions would be helpful - it allowed my parents to sit outside all afternoon and enjoy the birds and the sound of the nearby creek.
Work has obviously been done to revive this property and I can see more will be done in the future, but the essentials for s clean and comfortable home are there. Thanks, Laura, for sharing this home with us. We had a wonderful stay.

Cabin was great!
Cabin was really nice! All the rooms were a bit close together but worked perfectly for us. Great location, walking distance to the river and the great meadow area. Also walking distance to the Inn and and a short drive to the lake.
Would definitely like to add that the trash situation is NOT IDEAL. We were given information to bring our trash and recycling to a dumping site down the road...after we loaded a car we got to the dumps to find that they were closed. When I messaged the host to find another place to dump, the only response was to bring the garbage back to our homes and dump there. It would already be a huge hassle when your cars are completely packed to lug smelly garbage 3+ hours home... but to not have any warning to prepare for this and bring a tarp or whatever to keep our cars clean? And to have already gone through the trouble to take to the dumps...I think there has to be a better alternative for this.
BUT, the cabin is wonderful and locaton is great and we had a blast.
We absolutely loved our stay! The cabin is in a great location, close to Pinecrest and the river. The cabin was well stocked with all the essentials, very clean, large deck and a great fire pit which allowed us to create many more family memories! We also loved it was pet friendly!!
Had a wonderful time up at Pinecrest with friends and family! The cabin has everything you need for a family get away with friends and family! The location is perfect, close to Pinecrest Lake, Strawberry, Beardsley Lake, and the Stanislaus River making it a perfect fishing cabin! Love the outdoor barbecue and fire pit, the cabin has Wi-Fi and an awesome kitchen!
The cabin is so nice, clean and updated with all you need! We loved having two decks for relaxing. Location was perfect for heading up to the high country, relaxing at the lake or walking to the river. Will definitely be back!!!
The cabin was lovely all amenities that you needed. We had a great time in this quiet area with so many wonderful things to do. Hands down the best cabin we have stayed in while visiting Strawberry. Thank you Laura for your hospitality.
Very nice, clean and well equipped cabin. Enjoyed the time spent on the deck under the stars and the short walk to the river. Will be back again in the future.
This was our second stay and we enjoyed it so much again. Everything about the cabin is very comfortable. We look forward to another stay in the future. Thank you for sharing your cozy cabin with our family!
We very much enjoyed our stay at this cabin. The cabin has many new and tasteful renovations, is in excellent working condition, and was very clean and comfortable. The location of the cabin is in a quiet neighborhood and is minutes to Lake Pinecrest and in easy walking distance to the Stanislaus river. The property manager it’s easy to communicate with and was very helpful. The stay here was terrific and we will return for future visits!
We absolutely had the best time returning to the cabin!!! Sooo clean and well equipped with any needs. Love that it is a quick drive to the lake too. Loved sitting on the patios, relaxing after a day on the boat, roasting marshmallows, and celebrating 2 birthdays. We thoroughly enjoyed our getaway! Thank you for having us!
We have been vacationing in Strawberry for several years the area is just so beautiful. The cabin was very clean and the perfect size for our family. The river was just a short walk and we love spending the day at Pinecrest Lake just a short drive from the cabin. Would rent this cabin again.
The hanging light over the stairs appears to be loose and moves when you walk on the stairs, may want to look at that. We really enjoyed our stay kitchen is very nice, could use maybe a couple of skillets, cast iron is really hard to get clean. Front deck was great. Thank you
We thoroughly enjoyed the cleanliness and cozy feeling of this cabin!! The renovations were so nice and the cabin fit our family perfectly. Awesome place to enjoy nature and still enjoy the comforts of home.
Thank you for a wonderful experience.
