There are mountain cabins—and then there are places that make you feel like you're living in the trees. Set among the pines in Cold Springs, this inviting retreat combines classic cabin character with soaring architecture, warm wood interiors and views that reach through the forest to the distant ridgeline. Step inside and your eyes are immediately drawn upward. Dramatic wood ceilings and exposed beams create a wonderful sense of volume, while abundant windows fill the living spaces with natural light and keep the surrounding forest always in view. The warm, wood-rich interior offers inviting spaces to gather around the fire, share a meal or simply settle in and enjoy the quiet. Upstairs, one of the home's most memorable spaces is tucked beneath the A-frame roofline, where you can lie beneath the beams and look through the windows into the treetops. Thoughtful improvements add modern comfort and convenience without sacrificing the cabin's mountain character. Mini-split systems provide both heat and air conditioning and can be controlled remotely by phone, allowing you to start warming or cooling the cabin before you arrive. A newer propane heat stove adds another source of warmth and ambiance, while a generator with automatic transfer switch provides added peace of mind. The roof was replaced approximately five years ago, and the shower in the main-level bath has also been updated. Outside, the expansive deck becomes another living space beneath the pines, with room for morning coffee, outdoor meals and long afternoons surrounded by the sounds of the forest. Look beyond the trees and the view opens across the surrounding Sierra landscape and distant ridgeline. Ample parking provides plenty of room when guests arrive. Located near Pinecrest Lake and Dodge Ridge Mountain Resort and approximately 2.5 hours from both San Francisco and Sacramento, the cabin is being offered furnished, making it easy to begin enjoying your mountain getaway from day one. Warm, welcoming and full of character, this mountain retreat offers something harder to capture on a feature sheet: the feeling of being away.

Top of the hill in beautiful Cold Springs, just a few minutes walk to the general store, a short drive to Pinecrest Lake and Dodge Ridge Ski Resort and about 15 minutes up from the village of Twain Harte so you are centrally located in the mountains regardless of what you feel like doing. In the winter you are in the snow and in the summer you are above the hot valley heat. The cabin feels much larger than it measures out to be with 3-bedrooms and 2-bathrooms, a sitting area with a wall of windows looking up the canyon toward Dodge Ridge Ski Resort and Coopers Peak above Pinecrest Lake & into the tall trees of the national forest that surrounds Cold Springs. Downstairs is the main living area with a large living room with a airtight wood stove backed by a bricked wall. The living room is open to the kitchen with the 2nd bathroom and 3rd bedroom, sliding glass door leads off onto the full length deck where most people spend most of their time in the warm month. Parking is a level paved parking pad with room for 2 or 3 cars. It is nice to be on the top road into Cold Springs because it makes it easy to get out when the roads are covered with snow and you are already on top with a level parking area onto the level street to the highway. The cabin needs some minor TLC and is priced a
