About this property
Base Camp • Walk to Lake • Spa • Firepit • Theatre
Escape to a rustic lodge where adventure meets comfort! Spend evenings in the movie room, gather around the fireplace, or stargaze from the hot tub. Days are for the lake—just a 4-minute walk with wagon, chairs, and cooler included—or head up to Bear Valley Ski Resort, only a short drive away. Cook feasts in the chef’s kitchen, then swap stories by the firepit. With 100+ year-old salvaged beams and floors, this redwood getaway has soul, style, and plenty of room for fun.
