Great all inclusive cabin. Well stocked and got plenty warm after things got running. We ended up sleeping on the futon downstairs to conserve energy. Kitchen is wonderful and allowed us to prepare a lovely dinner and breakfast. Lovely location in the Trinity Alps....secluded, easy to reach with a wild feel without being remote.

We loved staying at this charming cabin! While it is not luxurious, it is full of character! We stayed in November and it was a bit chilly out. The cabin has several space heaters that kept us toasty. We will be back!

We really enjoyed this accommodation on it's own merit, location, history and exceptional location....have I mentioned location?
What we did NOT enjoy are that the previous occupants left the refrigerator filthy, the floor filthy, the bathroom filthy....you get my drift. People....if you are to rent this amazing space, be considerate of those arriving after you. It takes village.....
On an ending note....we love this place.

Please note: Do NOT rely on GPS systems, particularly those on phones, as this can result in you being led off track onto Forest roads that cannot be traversed with all vehicle types. The cabin is off of a major Northern California Highway; there is no appropriate or direct route via gravel or dirt forest roads, except for the very short traverse to the cabin on the 1S26 Road directly off of CA-36.

Follow CA-3 South for approximately 35 miles (passing through Hayfork) to the junction of CA-3 and CA-36. Turn west (right) on CA-36 and continue to Forest Glen.
