Unplug for nature, dogs, and kids

Escape to peaceful, kids and dog-friendly Sierra Foothills cabin surrounded by 5 private acres on border of Mountain Ranch and Mokelumne Hill, just a short drive to lakes, rivers, trails, and charming towns Murphys and Jackson.

This cozy retreat is perfect for families, couples, and nature lovers looking to unplug, unwind, and reconnect. Spend your days by the fire, playing board games, or relaxing while your dog explores freely.

Cell service is available (T-Mobile and AT&T work well), but there is no Wi-Fi, making this a true digital-detox getaway.

Winter note: The closest snow play is at Bear Valley, located past Arnold, CA.

Murray Creek Homestead

Learn more about this land
Very remote off grid barn with an&nbsp;outhouse, vegetable garden, fruit trees, and small vineyard that I&nbsp;make wine from. There's a&nbsp;creek that runs through the property with Indian grinding holes. We also have volleyball, horseshoes, hiking trails, and much more!

You will be in&nbsp;gold country where you can&nbsp;still find gold in the creek to this day!&nbsp;If you're lucky, you might find a nugget, but there's mostly&nbsp;pickers and fines. 

The nights are absolutely stunning for viewing the stars with&nbsp;no light pollution.&nbsp; You will have almost complete privacy, with the exception of an occasional over head aircraft. I have only one group at a time.
