Excellent stay! We'll be back again!

The house was wonderful and we were very happy with our stay. We had no complaints and the hosts were very responsive. We plan to stay again in the summer to be able to partake in more local trails. We stayed when there was still a good amount of snow on the ground, but it was refreshing to walk our dog around the neighborhood with all the beautiful snow. Would totally recommend this rental to anyone!

Great experience

Overall great trip. The lodge was clean and well maintained. The hot tub was a highlight. In addition, Bobby provided amazing customer service when we bumped into a local issue with PG&E cutting off power in the neighborhood. We would definitely come back.

Winter wonderland

Wow we can’t say enough about this cabin. Our family of 5 has the best time. Kids played in the snow for hours daily, hot tub fun while it snowed, played Atari, board games and watching movies. We loved all the special touches like the biscotti’s and cookies. The cabin has everything you need. We would definitely come back.

Wonderful Family Cabin with All the Amenities

Our family of 3 plus little dog had a fantastic stay at the Pinecone Cottage. We loved the jacuzzi after long days of skiing. We loved that the kitchen had all of the cooking utensils, pots, pans, and appliances we needed for meals. The WiFi was reliable, and we had access to many streaming services and movies. The beds were comfortable! The towels were plentiful! The driveway was plowed each morning! Chelsea and Bobby are thoughtful hosts, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Home away from home

We came here to celebrate my son’s 12th birthday and had a great time. The property was clean and well- equipped, we cooked both nights we were there. The hot tub was a treat, as was the sno park pass! Chelsea was always quick to respond and a great communicator. Love the neighborhood, and how well- groomed the streets were even after snowfall. I would love to stay here again! Thank you Chelsea!

Perfect Getaway!

We had a beautiful time! A girls weekend, way overdue! We loved the pellet stove fireplace, the espresso machine, the hot-tub and the openness of the kitchen/living space. The beds were super comfortable and the kitchen was very well stocked! Loved the thoughtful touches like the complimentary bottle of wine, chocolates and sweet guestbook. The digital manual Chelsea sent, prior to our arrival, was a great reference tool. Thank you, Chelsea!

Great stay!

We loved our time at the Pinecone Cottage. Beautiful place, nice hot tub, safe area. The girls loved roasting marshmallows over the outdoor firepit. The only thing I hadn't considered was that there is no fence for the doggo so I had to take him out on a leash. I could have just left him tied outside on the leash if he didn't have separation anxiety. Communication was great. The whole process was easy. Thanks!

Absolutely perfect

This property was an absolutely perfect getaway for our family. Chelsea and Bobby are the best possible hosts and thought of every last detail to make our trip exactly what we were hoping it would be. Check-in was seamless, the home was spotless, and everything worked exactly as indicated. We were there in the winter and the roads and driveway were plowed just as described in the listing, and we had more entertainment options indoors than we could even get to during our stay. The hot tub was clean and warmed up quickly, and our whole family enjoyed that feature so much. We were so happy we chose this home to rent for our family trip to the snow, and we hope to rent from Chelsea and Bobby again soon, as they were the easiest hosts to work with that I’ve ever rented from. Wonderful stay—highly recommend!

A Wonderful Stay at Evergreen!

We had an amazing time at the Evergreen Pinecone Cottage! The cottage was super cozy and was well appointed with all the amenities. The tall A-frame windows have beautiful views of the pines and keep you connected with the outdoors, which was really nice with 6-7 feet of snow on the ground! The hot tub was wonderful and espresso machine was so much fun in the mornings. Chelsea and Bobby were amazing hosts, they had awesome communication and provided clear details on everything including providing an app for quick reference. The Dorrington area was quiet and peaceful and loved taking our pups on long walks through the neighborhood and narrow snow lined streets. Overall, the cottage was very clean and cozy with tons of character and had all the amenities of home. We loved our stay and would highly recommend the Evergreen Cottage for a relaxing and carefree vacation!

Just book it

Lovely location, amongst the trees and very quiet so you it feels secluded although it is part of a nice neighborhood. Access to the neighborhood community pool and playground was awesome, fire pit and hot tub were amazing, well equipped house including espresso machine. Appreciated small touches like the phone charging cords for the three common charging plugs, and easy to remember door lock code. We had a few questions along the way and the owner was very helpful and replied very quickly. Only issue is that the upper half of the taller windows was uncovered so light streamed in pretty early in the morning, but you kind of have to expect that from staying in a cute cabin in the woods so just make sure you bring an eye mask if you are not an early riser. Would 100% stay here again.

Lovely Stay at Pinecone Cottage!

We had a lovely stay at Pinecone Cottage and couldn’t have been happier. The cute cabin had everything we needed and the kitchen was very well stocked. The beds were comfy and we appreciated the little touches like the phone chargers and how everything was clearly labeled. They even have a digital house manual that helps explains the house very clearly. The location was also perfect, since we spent a lot of time at the local lakes and the Lube Room! Chelsea was very attentive to our needs and was a great host. We look forward to coming back in the winter and enjoying some snow fun, too!

Perfect family stay in nature without any fuss.

We enjoyed our time at the cabin very much and found it comfortable, clean, and spacious for our needs. The neighborhood is blissfully quiet. The kitchen was well stocked. Our favorite gathering place was the backyard deck where we would unwind from a day of swimming, hiking, and kayaking. We have zero complaints and the reservation was painless.
