Mountain Holiday Home in Ponderosa with Sequoia Views and Deer Sightings

Outdoor Amenities

The property offers a sun terrace and a garden with mountain views, plus a BBQ and outdoor furniture. Guests have reported seeing groups of deer in the yard daily and described the stars at night as breathtaking. The outdoor seating area provides a spot to watch wildlife and enjoy the quiet surroundings.

Living Spaces

The cabin has two separate living rooms: a great room upstairs with a stove that includes an air fryer function, and a cozy basement living room with plenty of classic books and board games. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, and both bathrooms include a washer and dryer. Firewood is supplied for the fireplace, and each room has its own heater.

Location & Activities

Located at 1153 Hwy 190 in Camp Nelson, the property is a short drive from the Sequoia National Forest. The nearby Nelson Trail is a 5-minute drive away, but the trail road is closed to cars, requiring a one-mile walk to the trailhead. Fishing and cycling are available in the area, and a general store is within walking distance.

Family-Friendly Accommodations

The three-bedroom house accommodates families with space across two floors, a dining area, and a kitchen suited for cooking and baking. Guests can use the board games and books in the basement living room, while the upstairs area works well for gathering to play games or watch movies. The property has smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and CCTV outside for safety.

Guest Resources

A guest book left by the owners lists local trails and restaurants, including details for the Nelson Trail and other nearby routes. The owners communicate promptly and send the door code a few hours before check-in. Guests are asked to haul their own trash at checkout, but the binder with trail information helps plan the stay.
