About this property
The Cranes cabin, clean, cozy & private cabin in Twain Harte, Perfect for 2!
One of the original Twain Harte cabin rentals from 20 years ago, this authentic 1 room knotty pine cabin in the woods is unique and the ideal getaway!
Located on a quiet private road, it is perfect for 2.
We pride ourselves in providing a super clean, nicely outfitted cabin with plenty of warm natural light and cozy spaces to enjoy the beautiful landscape, fresh air and a authentic cabin vibe.
This darling cabin is within walking distance to town, and the charming surrounding Twain Harte neighborhoods, but at the same time affords more privacy from neighbors.
Enjoy the fresh scent of pine in the air as you sit out on the beautiful sunny deck, relax in the chaise lounges to the songs of the birds. We have many local deer that enjoy the surrounding property, so please observe them safely and respectfully, you can often hear the crunching of leaves as they meander around the property. No feeding the deer please and always keep a safe distance.
A complete kitchen with newer appliances, beautiful granite countertops and all the utensils, pots and pans you will need to make Martha Stewart proud! Clean up is a breeze as well with a dishwasher.
Dine outside on the deck or stay in at the lovely granite peninsula for two, your choice.
With special pieces of vintage skis, fishing nets, creel and pack baskets the nostalgia of the mountains is complete, not a detail has been missed.
Why pay for a hotel when you can enjoy the beautiful luxuries of this special cabin!
Furnished with a spacious King size bed, and a full size futon you have all you need to enjoy reading a book from our library, or enjoying a movie complete with a crisp soundbar, just log in to your own app account, This cabin is equipped with wireless Wi-fi, for those who need to check back in with the real world occasionally.
New carpet and window shades have just been installed as well.
Though not very big, it is charming and has all the spaces that matter the most without all the extra space of some larger cabins. This cabin is truly the relaxing, private, and special place for a couples getaway to recharge.
Excellent wall heater is the heat source, which heats up quickly on those chilly winter days.
Plenty of level parking. Fresh linens and towels are provided as well as fresh ground coffee and creamer to start off your morning.
There is a onsite washer and dryer for your convenience, comes in handy for those week long stays.
Propane barbecue on the stone patio for those grilling meals.
Centrally located you can head up the hill 45 minutes to ski/snowboard at Dodge Ridge, head down the hill to Sonora and Columbia for a day of shopping and experiencing a Gold rush town, or over to Yosemite National park for a hike and waterfalls or to Murphys for some wine tasting! We are the center point of it all!
Start the New Year off by treating yourself to this experience.
We look forward to hosting you!

About the host
Hosted by Geneva Crane
We are a family of 5. My husband John and I have two beautiful little girls, 16 and 12 years old and now a darling 7 year old boy!
My husband is a amazing carpenter but really a 'jack of all trades' and has an amazing eye for detail!
He completely remodeled this sweet little cabin and has turned it into a little gem in the woods now! This cabin is immaculate and serene. Outfitted beautifully with charming and comfortable furniture and all that you need to make a scrumptious meal. I have enjoyed decorating it in a Americana theme.
We hope that you enjoy the work, thought and love that has gone into this cabin. Not everyone needs a cabin that sleeps 8-12, some just want a beautiful, clean and equipped place to relax and enjoy life!
Please be our guests and let us know what you think!

Why they chose this property
We chose this property for many reasons. We like that it is on a private road so the amount of cars is minimal. We loved the two existing cabins on the property that desperately needed some TLC. John loves to bring life back to properties that have been neglected and he set right to work on this little cabin!
We want to share the beauty and serenity that we see in this property with others.

What makes this property unique
This cabin is close to the town, but is fairly private unlike most cabins in Twain Harte!
