Mountain Meadow View Retreat

Cedar home built with trees logged on half acre wooded property. Overlooks meadow with pond. Secluded yet accessible, our mountain retreat is a short stroll to a brewery, eateries, a grocery market and other services. It's also a short bike ride to White Pines Lake and the heart of Arnold. Our community is famous for its easy access to hiking, skiing, boating, wineries and the gold rush era town of Murphys.
