This vacation rental cabin in Twain Harte, CA has been in our family for generations & we’ve been renting for over a two decades. It was one of the first homes built in the Twain Harte area, and we've worked to preserve the knotty pine and the traditional style elements that have always made it feel like a warm, rustic welcome to the California Gold Country, even as we've kept the kitchen appliances, furniture, and decorations updated for modern tastes and needs.

Our Twain Harte lodging comfortably fits eight to ten people.

We provide blankets and pillows, along with the first roll of toilet paper and paper towels. There are complimentary sheets, pillow cases, & 10 shower towels. Please bring shampoo/conditioner, or other personal hygiene products.

BEDROOMS:
This cabin has four bedrooms, along with a queen-size pull out sofa in the living room for adventurous children and unexpected guests. Room One, which is at the front of the cabin, has one queen bed; Room Two offers two twin beds and is located in the back of the cabin. Room Three is a loft bedroom that's ideal for kids, boasting two twin beds, a small TV, and access through a steep ladder that keeps the loft feeling like a secret hideaway. Keep watch on your kids in Room Four, which includes one queen bed, a small TV, the ladder to the loft, and its own door to the side deck. Note: This room is used to access the loft, so you lose a bit of privacy.

BATHROOMS:
There are two full bathrooms in this spacious vacation rental, one of which is accessible from the house. The second bathroom is in the basement, which requires going outside and under the deck, but makes washing up when you've just returned from a long day of exploration much easier. Both bathrooms have a toilet, shower, and sink, and the basement bathroom has a complimentary washer and dryer, though neither bathroom is equipped with a bathtub. The tank-less water heater gives you endless hot water for your showers, but please try to keep your showers short, so that you can help your temporary neighbors in Tuolumne County fight California's current drought.

OTHER AMENITIES:
The living room features a stereo system for your music, and a 47-inch big screen HD TV with Comcast cable to keep you up to date on all your favorite shows. You'll also have access to free, high speed Comcast Wi-Fi throughout the house. The cabin's land line offers unlimited free calling to local numbers and businesses; for long distance or toll calls, you'll have to use your cell phone.

The paved driveway has plenty of space for all the vehicles you'll bring, whether you drive to Twain Harte in multiple cars or SUVs or take your trailer, a short RV, or a boat on vacation with you.

There is no air-conditioning installed; instead, we can offer you a variety of ways to bring the natural, pine-scented mountain breezes into every corner of the cabin, including two ceiling fans in the living room and a selection of portable fans for the rest of the house.

KITCHEN:
The kitchen is fully equipped with all the basic cooking utensils, silverware, plates, cups, toaster, coffee pot, refrigerator, microwave oven, blender, garbage disposal, high chair, and soap you'll need. Just bring your own food to cook on the gas stove, your own coffee, tea, or cocoa to brew before going out for the day or staying in for a long, luxurious evening, or some charcoal and fluid for the charcoal BBQ waiting out on the spacious deck.

There is no dishwasher, but if you're washing up your daily dishes at the sink when dusk falls, you may notice that some of the local deer, birds, and squirrels are coming out just behind the deck to pay you a visit. If you give them some cracked corn and peanuts, you may be able to charm them into coming by every evening to liven up your dish-washing routine!

Coming soon we hope to have some Tree house Rentals,
Beach Houses, Lake houses, Glamping Options, Tiny houses and Campers & RV's!

Very comfortable, I wish it was colder to use the fireplace. Lots of space, big comfy sofas. We saw deers both nights the controls for the lights and fans was a mystery. The light by the computer came on and off- maybe electrical. I did have a bit of confusion figuring out if it was the road and it was a driveway overall enjoyable time!!!

Superb rental!

I cannot say enough about this cabin. The location is great, nice walk to the lake. The books!!! If you are a book lover, this cabin is a must! I could have spent an entire month in hiding there just to read the books! The owner is fantastic and accommodating. Wonderful stay!

Very clean and nice cabin

Upon entry we were impressed with how clean the cabin was. The carpets, floors etc were very taken care of, no ick factor that typically comes with a vacation place. Plenty of space and beds to accommodate a larger group. Only one indoor bathroom unfortunately but in the summer months the basement/outdoor bathroom would be fine. We would certainly stay again.

Perfect for Family Time

This is the second time we have stayed at this cabin. Perfect for family celebrations away from the hustle of life. The deer come through the property twice a day and they love carrots. The neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. We will definitely return.

Fun family weekend

We had a great weekend at the cabin! Craig was awesome keeping us updated with weather conditions and was very helpful with any questions I had throughout the trip. The only downside to our trip was all of us sharing one bathroom (we had to go outside to access the extra bathroom and it was flooded from the storm) other than that everything was wonderful!! We would definitely recommend this cabin & the owners to anyone!!

Great Family Spot!

We have stayed here 2 years in the row with 3 adults and 3 kids between 4-8. I really like how casual this cabin feels. Don't have to stress about the kids being kids. We will be coming back next year as well! Great location and stocked with everything you need. Plenty of space to be together or take a break/spread out. Nice back deck to eat al fresco. Lake Membership is crucial in the summer months. Owners are very caring, responsive and easy to communicate with. Overall, a really good, affordable choice!

Enjoyed our stay, nice quiet forested neighborhood

The house was very comfortable, quiet, plenty of space, amazing price (shoulder season), and we really appreciated not having a two night minimum since we were just in the area for a night. There are no bathtubs, just showers but they have great water pressure & hot water. All parts of the house heated up quickly & nicely in the evening with the central heat. Nice big deck in the back with lots of seating and nice patio furniture.

Great Spot For A Family Reunion

This cabin was wonderful. We rented this one and another a couple doors down. The owners communication was fast and they gave us great info on local things to do. Cabin was clean and well taken care of. It looks as though it was recently upgraded as well. Kitchen had lots of extra's for people that like to cook. As well as the old standby's; microwave, coffee pot, food processor, etc.

Awesome 4th of July family trip

My hubby, daughter, son in law and two grandsons stayed in this cozy cabin for 4 nights over the 4th of July. We all loved it. We ate most of our meals outside on the balcony and watched the squirrels and deer and birds. The kitchen has everything you need to make all of your meals. The cabin is a nice walk to the lake which we used a couple of times. The cabin is also very close to the nice little must see downtown. The cabin is great for a family trip and will definitely be booking another family trip for next year.

About the host

Hosted by Craig Mullins

Host profile image
Been vacationing in Twain Harte, CA ever since I was a baby. Same with my mom and her dad... We love this place, and I know you will too!

Why they chose this property

This is the place we had been renting from another owner for years. He decided it was time to sell and we couldn't help ourselves. We HAD to buy it!

What makes this property unique

This was one of the very first cabins ever built in Twain Harte. The original owner built it himself with trees cut down in the area.
