Really enjoyed the cabin stay for us and our four boys. We were a little worried about whether it would be enough space from the photos, but the living room actually felt bigger than the photos and the decor made the whole experience feel very cozy. The host has done a great job creating a vibe for the place and was super responsive and helpful. The cabin sits in a gated community of other cabins with some nice and scenic amenities like a pond, basketball courts, etc. and it is close to Leland snow play for tubing and Dodge Ridge. There’s also some great local restaurants nearby (The Pine Cone was our favorite). Would definitely stay at this cabin again and definitely recommend it for families.

Stayed here with my husband and daughter and had the best time! I loved the decor and the place was so comfortable and clean. The area outside is stunning and close to a lake and kid’s park which was perfect for us. Michelle was super friendly and responsive, she had a lot of recommendations for places to eat and sightsee. Our stay was short so we didn’t have enough time to explore but we will definitely be back when we have more time. Highly recommend Claire’s Nest, it was an amazing experience!

“An Awesome Stay”
We loved our stay here. The record player was a huge hit with us. Never expected a heated toilet seat...luxury for sure! There were lots of little touches that made this place special. We enjoyed the quiet sitting outside on the deck with a glass of wine. The cabin was close to everything we wamted to explore. Thank you to the Findlays for being amazing hosts.

Super cozy and quaint cabin amongst the trees in a very quiet gated community. The neighborhood is very calm and peaceful, and easily walkable for our family. All communication was timely, friendly, and helpful. Just minutes to Pinecrest, Twain Harte, Tuolumne, and Sonora. Excellent in all regards!!

Our stay was perfect from start to finish. The location was ideal for visiting Pinecrest Lake, and the house itself was great and beautifully modern. We instantly felt comfortable and right at home. This is easily one of the best Airbnb experiences we've ever had. Michelle was incredibly responsive and proactive, making the whole stay even better.
