Our goal was to visit for a few days and enjoy snow at Dodge Ridge (ski/snowboard) and sledding (Pinecrest Lake). Lucky enough, we arrived during an epic snowstorm. It was magical (and the last few miles there took for-ever...but worth it!).
Twain Harte has a grocery store with everything you need nearby. Snow shoveled our way to the house. Turned on the pellet stove and cooked up a meal while the kids enjoyed the snow outside.
When you enter the one floor home there's a big room with large wrap around sofa, tv, pellet stove, and kitchen area. Very welcoming. There's a big deck out the back that was covered in snow. Must be lovely in the summertime. 3 bedrooms are off to the side. The kids loved the twin bedroom with old Nintendo and board games. Spices, tea & coffee in the kitchen. Everything was neat and clean. Oh and a few taxidermied pals on the mantel.
Our Dodge Ridge and Pinecrest experiences were snow filled too. Driving took heaps longer because of the weather but we took everything in stride. It was a winter wonderland.
Jordan was a great host answering our questions promptly and giving us suggestions. If you like burgers, brews, and sweet potato garlic fries, the Rock is your place in nearby Twain Harte.
If anything was negative, it was because we didn't want to leave. Thanks for everything, Jordan. We hope to return soon.
