About this house rental
Summary:
This 3-bedroom mountainside cabin sits just 5 minutes from Shaver Lake in the Sierra Nevada, surrounded by towering pines and direct access to Sierra National Forest trails. The expansive deck with Adirondack chairs and unobstructed mountain views becomes your outdoor living room, while inside a brick fireplace anchors the vaulted-ceiling great room. Sleeping 8 guests across three private bedrooms with two full bathrooms, this cabin delivers both lake adventure and forest serenity year-round.
The Space:
🏡 The main level features exposed wood beam ceilings, a brick fireplace, and mountain-inspired decor. Relax on the living room couches with a smart TV for streaming. The full kitchen includes all standard appliances, ample cookware, and a dining table that seats 8. A bench in the kitchen holds board games for easy entertainment. 🌲 Step outside to the beautiful deck with a gas grill and Adirondack chairs surrounded by large pine trees and mountain views. This home sleeps 8 across 3 private bedrooms. Bedroom 1 has 2 twin beds. Bedroom 2 is furnished with 2 queen beds. Bedroom 3 is the primary suite with a king bed, wood vaulted ceilings, and a private balcony accessed through sliding glass doors. The home has 2 full bathrooms shared among guests. A washer and dryer are located in-unit. WiFi and streaming services keep you connected.
In summer, the deck becomes your outdoor dining room and the lake is minutes away for water sports.
In winter, cozy up by the fire after exploring snowy trails in Sierra National Forest.
Guest Access:
Check-in instructions will be sent prior to arrival.
🅿️ Street parking is available. Security cameras are present facing the front entryway and road, and facing the back of the home toward the mountain off the balcony. Four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive may be required during winter months depending on snow conditions.
The Neighborhood:
Shaver Lake is just minutes away, offering sapphire blue water perfect for water skiing, fishing, kayaking, and swimming at sandy beaches and sheltered coves.
🌲 The Sierra National Forest surrounds the area with dozens of hiking and mountain biking trails starting nearby. McKinley Grove, known for its giant historic sequoia trees, is a short drive and makes for an incredible day trip. Yosemite National Park is 2.5 hours away. Local dining and provisions are available in the small town of Shaver Lake, about a 5-minute drive from the cabin.

The cabin is located in a quiet neighborhood just off the main road leading to the lake. Yosemite National Park is 2.5 hours east.

Cabin was very homey in a nice quiet neighborhood just a quick 35 minute drive to China Peak Mountain Resort. Loved the views from the back deck as well as the cozy fireplace and dining area

Nicely redecorated & we’ll happily stay again. Some recommendations:
It would’ve been lovely to get to use the fireplace during the inclement weather, but it’s not allowed for some reason. I’d recommend inserting something like the Electric Fireplace Insert. We have one in our downstairs at home and it’s wonderful, it can be turned on for just ambiance or you can use it as a heater.
Parking is limited, there’s only one spot for this house, which the neighbors kept using. Thankfully the 2nd family to stay next door, we’re happy to move. Perhaps put the house number on the tree in front of the house?
Lighting: As the interior is painted white, it would be lovely if they used warm or soft white LED bulbs, to warm things up a bit. The bright white lights that there right now, can be a bit cold and glarey.

I reserved the home for President's weekend. A week before our stay we found out my husband wouldn't get that Monday (President's Day) off. I reached out to VRBO almost 2 weeks before our stay and received no response to see if we could modify our stay to Sunday. I finally was able to the get in touch a couple of days before our stay and they said no because it was just requested. I responded that I reached out over a week and half ago and they said because they did not hear back from the owner they did not respond to my inquiry. When we arrived to the home someone had just left because there was footsteps going down the steps.
The home was not very clean- there was mouse poop on the countertops, coffee, sugar and creamer all over the counter that the mouse that bit into and drug across the counter. The mouse was in and out the entire stay and my kids were scared the entire time. I reached out to property management after our stay again requesting at least half of the refund for Sunday night that we did not stay and still did not receive a response. I would not stay here again.
