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. Inside the rustic cabin, you’ll find: Queen bed plus queen air mattress (bedding provided) Dog bed-all dogs welcome, but please keep off the main bed, we've lost two duvet covers to long white dog hair Electric heater and wood-burning stove Wrap-around dining table kitchenette with stove, microwave, mini-fridge, and seasonal A/C TV with 1,000+ DVDs and an outdoor projector for movies under the stars Books, puzzles, and board games The cabin comfortably sleeps 2 adults and 2 smaller children indoors. Guests may also camp outside for up to 6 guests in total. Additional guests nonnegotiable. Optional Add-Ons: notice required for setup Creekside Glamping Tent (separate private area): full-size air mattress and single cot. Extra $25/night. Cozy Quarters Van (separate private area): queen bed, large deck, and seating area. Extra $45/night. Amenities & Comforts Two outhouses with hand-washing sink Outdoor hot shower (guest favorite) Weber, Traeger, or gas grill and flat top Mr. Coffee maker with filters and sugar Firepit and multiple shaded seating areas Outdoor Features Treehouse platform for coffee or stargazing 80-foot zipline swing Swings, hammocks, and outdoor games Nearby Stop at Sender’s Market in Mountain Ranch for local wine, ribeye steaks, deli sandwiches, groceries, and hardware. Nearby towns offer bars, wineries, cider houses, sports bars, farmers’ markets, and summer events. Favorite day trips New Hogan Lake (great for kids and dogs) and the Mokelumne River near Electra Rd (scenic but fast-moving; use caution). We visit often for maintenance and are happy to share our personal space. Please treat it as your own.🌲 Sierra Foothills Cabin Retreat Dog-friendly • Family-friendly • Off-grid charm Step away from the noise and reconnect with nature at this hidden but still close to the attractions Sierra Foothills escape. Our cozy, unplugged cabin is perfect for couples, families, dogs, and anyone craving a slower pace. Many guests say the space feels especially calming and restorative. New touches are added, like the growing labyrinth and random sitting areas. 💛 Good to Know Bring your own firewood, or walk around and gather fallen sticks. Tesla 220V charger available (bring your own cable)
