About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire cabin to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

One acre with a fire pit, kids play area, treehouse, zipline, pets welcome

The Ultimate Adventure Basecamp: Private Treehouse, Zipline & Sledding! A family-friendly, pet-friendly, kid-approved cabin nestled among the trees on a private one-acre wooded lot within the Sequoia National Forest. Hit the many off-roading trails where you’ll find endless trails with watering holes and waterfalls. Family fun starts here! Trade the national park crowds for your own private wilderness. Nestled at 7,200 feet directly inside the Sequoia National Forest, Ponderosa Cabin offers a secluded experience where adventure is literally in your backyard.

Why Book Ponderosa Cabin?

Private Playground: A zipline, a custom treehouse, and private sledding hills are all on-site and ready for use!

Wilderness Without the Traffic: Skip the 2-hour entrance lines. We are surrounded by the Sequoia National Forest, Monument and Domeland Wilderness.

Four-Season Fun: Whether it’s swimming in natural tubs in July or guided snowmobile tours in January, this is a year-round destination.

Pet & Family Friendly: A full acre of forested land for kids and dogs to explore safely.

The Adventure Guide (Nearby Highlights):
We are your gateway to the "hidden" gems of the Sierras, including:

- Must-Sees: Trail of 100 Giants, Dome Rock, and the George Bush Tree.

- Water & Hiking: Nobe Young Falls, Seven Teacups, and Peppermint Creek Falls.

- Action: Direct access to OHV trails, fishing, and peak bagging at Slate Mountain.

The Cabin Experience:
Our cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat sits on a private acre. You own the forest from the driveway to the crest of the hill—feel free to roam and play!

Gourmet Dining: Want a night off from the kitchen? We can connect you with a Le Cordon Bleu-trained private chef to prepare a world-class meal right at the cabin.

The "Pack-It-In" Lifestyle: To keep Ponderosa secluded, we are an hour from the nearest full grocery store. We recommend bringing your favorite supplies to enjoy a true "off-the-grid" feel with all the modern comforts. The kitchen is fully stocked with all your cooking needs.

Important Logistics for a Great Stay:

Location Accuracy: Please note that while we are inside the Sequoia National Forest, the main gate to Sequoia National Park is about 2 hours away. You get the beauty without the crowds!

Winter Travel: Highway 190 often requires tire chains. We strongly recommend trip insurance for winter bookings.

Safety First: To keep the fun going, a digital release of liability is required after booking due to the zipline and treehouse.

I have rented this cabin several times for our employees working in the high Sierra. EVERY time I've booked, the host has been very helpful and accommodating. The communication is outstanding. The pet friendly policy is a plus. The grounds have many things to do for the entire family. The cabin is kept clean and everything is always in good working order. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Our employees have stayed at this cabin many times and have had no problems. They feel comfortable and the host is wonderful to work with. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to get away. There is plenty to do for all family members.
