I lected this cabin because we specifically wanted to be near Pinecrest Lake and based on wonderful reviews, some which were winter stays. It was rented for one night concluding a road trip through the Gold Country and we wanted to swim in a lake and enjoy our last day of our trip. We are not familiar with this area, but had been in Sonora 20 plus years ago. The cabin photos include one of “the lake” and it looked like a partial photo. We thought we would be staying within walking distance to a lake. Once I arrived I texted the owner to ask how we would get to the lake because I could not see it. We did pass by a pond on the way in to the cabin. It was very green with algae (which can be a problem). It tuned out this was what was being called the “lake”. According to some people we met, Pinecrest Lake is around 10 miles away with a crowded day use area. This was our main concern about this property. There were numerous instructions provided since it is through a main gate. However the owner neglected to send the needed codes the day before, once texted he sent the information. This was a bit stressful. Other issues were that the property was not in the best condition and had a badly peeling deck, linens did not seem fresh, the bathroom had some issues near baseboard and what looked like dry rot, the sofa bed was broken and would never accommodate two people, there were torn areas in the sliding glass door screens. Other properties on VRBO in the same area are well maintained.
