Beuatiful river cabin

Really enjoyed our stay. Very comfortable cabin along the American river with everything we needed to relax. Close to the road but the river drowns out any traffic noise on the back deck. Loved the views from the living room and kitchen. Kitchen well stocked. Enjoyed a polar plunge in the river and a day skiing at Kirkwood as the local snow was sparse. Korean retaurant walking distance was awesome, otherwise have to drive a bit to eat so we brought some food with us for cooking. Overall great stay and would definitely recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Debbie Shaw

I have been a real estate agent in El Dorado County for 27 years. My number 1 on my bucket list was to own a cabin on the river. I live in the area and have raised my children here. My family spent many years camping along the river. I want to share my experience as a cabin homeowner. The river is a place I can meditate and be at peace. If you are interested in purchasing a vacation home, please contact me.

Why they chose this property

River Front property has always been my dream. I wanted to be able to throw a stone from the cabin to the water. My cabin has the view of the river from almost every window. The sound of the river drowns out all my worries and cares. I love the deep swimming hole during the summer months and the challenge of rock climbing across the river. My childhood vacations were memories of camping along rivers, creeks and lakes. There was always a fishing pole in my hand not to mention the flames and smell of a camp fire.

What makes this property unique

Deep swimming hole, fishing, hiking on the Pony Express Trail, close to Sierra Tahoe Ski Resort, Mountain climbing on Sugar Loaf, peaceful, a remarkable experience.
