Whispering Pines-w/ Heat, AC & Pool Access!

Welcome to Whispering Pines! Nestled among the trees at the end of a serene cul-de-sac, Whispering Pines is a charming dog-friendly retreat in the heart of the Sierras. The living area boasts stunning pine ceilings, creating a cozy ambiance. With a wood stove and central heat and airconditioning, the cabin comfortably accommodates 6-7 guests. Stay connected with Wi-Fi and bring your furry friends along as dogs are welcome!

Located at the end of a shady cul-de-sac, this little cabin is surrounded by tall pine trees and the sounds of nature. You'll find 2 bedrooms and 1 and a half bathrooms on the main floor and a large sleeping loft upstairs which serves as a 3rd bedroom, sleeping 3 people with plenty of room for games, foosball and TV. The kitchen is cozy, yet provides everything you need for a relaxing visit.

Enjoy the forest view from the deck, while sipping coffee in the morning or a lovely drink in the evening under the stars! The cabin is located in Big Trees Village, with access to the HOA amenities in the summer, including 2 pools, park area, tennis and bocce courts. Only minutes from Bear Valley Ski Resort, Lake Alpine, Spicer Reservoir, and Calaveras Big Trees State Park. There's something to do year-round!

Cozy Cabin
The cabin was clean and cozy but in need of some updates. The dining room chairs were very worn to the point of falling apart. Only one dishtowel was provided for a stay of 4 days. We did have a pleasant time but with a little more attention it would have even better.

Nice Stay at Whispering Pines
The house was clean and fairly well appointed. The kitchen was tiny. The plates and bowls were not ideal. The kitchen table chairs were in poor condition and the leather was literally disinegrating. The access to the pool was awesome - location is great. Nice to have AC as it was hot. Overall a nice place to stay.

Thanksgiving 2023 trip
We loved the house and property it was perfect. The house could have been a little cleaner, there were alot of spider webs and spiders must have found 8 within the first couple hours. Also could use measuremening cups in the kitchen. Other than that the house was perfect, we would happily stay there again.

Cozy, relaxing getaway
Such a cute property. I love the location and it was close to lake Alpine. The place was cozy, comfortable and relaxing. Enough space for a family with the upstairs loft. Kitchen well stocked, enough bath linens and visitor guide book was helpful! Having access to the pool was the best feature!!! Thinking about coming back in winter for some snow fun. Just a couple suggestion opportunities - need more fans because it was hot and there is no AC. Also the DVD selection for the downstairs TV was great but the DVD player upstairs wasn't blue ray.

Overall had a great time. Nice quiet neighborhood, very peaceful. Easily accessible to lakes, rivers, and town. Only downside was the amount of dog hair on carpets and on bed, beside that, it was a great stay.

We enjoyed our stay and it everything went smoothly. Our kids loved it, although there was no snow at the time. Only thing: bring your salt/sugar/coffee, we didn't find those in the kitchen. Otherwise, it was lovely.

Wonderful retreat
Our family of four had a cozy stay in our Dorrington cabin. The beds were full of soft covers, the leather couches reclined and the fire was so easy to light each night! We were super close to skiing, sledding and snowshoeing.

Besides the town power going out shortening our trip, we had a great time when we were up there. House was clean and the hosts were great to communicate with. Would book with them again!
