Amazing House! Perfect Getaway!

We had an awesome stay for my birthday weekend with family. The views were amazing especially when it’s snowing! The house is on 10+ acres so it is very private and feels secluded in the forest. Very cozy cabin feel and the house was very clean. Communication with owner was quick and easy. The location is perfect since it’s close to Dodge Ridge and a casino. There were plenty of towels and extra blankets to accommodate. Plenty of space for dining. The living room was a huge space and the game room was a plus for the kids to hang out. After sharing pics with friends and family I am already getting several requests for the link to stay here!

The perfect Christmas Cabin

We had the best time during our stay and it was perfect for our family to wake up to on Christmas morning. We loved the large dinning room table that we were able to all sit around and enjoy meal times and games! The kitchen was beautiful and we even cooked a full Christmas Dinner easily in the space. The living room has large couches that everyone was able to relax, and everything was decorated so cute with Christmas Decor that made Christmas morning so special. The large game room down stairs was a huge hit between all the kids and adults! There was something for everyone, and the kids were never board. Each bedroom was large and slept our large group very comfortably. One highlight was the nice wrap around porch with an amazing view, and the large driveway that the kids could ride their scooters around on. The toilets even had heated toilet seats, which everyone enjoyed! We were very happy with our experience and would love to book again in the future!

About the host

Hosted by Ken and Peggie Dorrance

We live in the San Francisco Bay Area and purchased this beautiful cabin in Twain Harte. Our family uses the cabin as much as possible because we all love being up in the mountains with our grandkids. My wife and I are retired and split our time from the Bay Area to this fantastic property. We have traveled extensive around the world and have set foot on every continent the world has to offer

Why they chose this property

This property is so uniquid and so beautiful. The previous owners spared no expense in building this beautiful home and they fill the home with all customized furniture, making this home even more unique. We rented this property 3 times before buying it, on our last rental we saw the for sale sign in front. We love coming up here and just sitting on the deck and looking over the beautiful Sherwood Forest.
