My family and I spent a week at The Sugar Pine Chalet and could not have asked for more. It was the perfect jumping off point for our daily adventures. After spending the afternoons in the surrounding forests, it was great knowing we would be coming home to the space, and quiet of the property, the deck, and the comforts within. The cabin perfectly complemented my family’s adventure; whether that meant sharing time together, lounging on the deck, exploring the property, building fires in the wood burning stove, or nights spent playing board games. Within a short drive of the cabin we caught beautiful trout, nearly hit a few bears crossing the road, explored the Stanislaus River, enjoyed a few short snowstorms, explored Murphys, saw some of the biggest trees in the world at Calaveras Big Trees State Park, the list goes on. My family’s trip to the Sugar Pine Chalet exceeded all our expectations. It was hard to leave after such an amazing experience.
