Located in the sweet Sugarpine community nestled in between Mi-Wuk Village and downtown Twain Harte, the Pine Cone House offers excellent proximity to plenty of restaurants and shops, all while being in the privacy of the Sierra Nevada mountains of the Stanislaus National Forest where guests enjoy hiking, fishing, biking, skiing, and camping.

This 4 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom, 1874sq ft two-story house has two bedrooms on the main level, and two bedrooms with an additional living/game room downstairs. Each level of the home is equipped with a Cal-king bedroom making The Pine Cone House ideal for two families, or a group that enjoys the options more space provides. Note: Although this home is two stories, the main living level is accessed from the front door and does not require stairs to enter. The front entrance has double doors to allow for wider wheelchairs, or even strollers.

Work remotely in the summer with air conditioning (not very common in the area), or in the winter with central heat, and high speed Wifi. There is a dedicated work space in the master bedroom with a full desk, computer monitor, and a professional office chair, and an additional desk in the second upstairs room. Or, kick back and relax, catching up on your favorite series on our smart TV’s in each bedroom, main living area, and game room, all equipped with a Roku, a house Netflix account and a house Disney+ account. No need to use your own logins (unless you want to, of course!).

The home comes with garage access, ideal for unloading all your vacation extras and mountain bikes. Take advantage of any of our personal beach/snow toys hanging on the walls. The home is family friendly, with plenty of books and toys available in the game room and family friendly extras in the upstairs closet, such as a pack and play and bumbo seat. There are stairs, so please watch your little ones. You can find an extra baby gate and play pen to guard off the stairs if you choose.

Finally, enjoy your morning coffee and/or a special nightcap cocktail on the upper deck while keeping warm with the propane timetable. There are two picnic tables with umbrellas for outdoor eating. The lower deck is also equipped with chairs to enjoy views of your children playing in the snow or possible wildlife strolling by in the early morning.

ACCESS BY LANDLORD TO PREMISES. Subject to Guest's consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld), Landlord shall have the right to enter the Premises to make inspections and provide necessary services. However, Landlord does not assume any liability for the care or supervision of the Premises while under the possession and of Guest. As provided by law, in the case of an emergency, Landlord may enter the Premises without Guest's consent. INDEMNITY REGARDING USE OF PREMISES. To the extent permitted by law, Guest agrees to indemnify, hold harmless, and defend Landlord from and against any and all losses, claims, liabilities, and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, if any, which Landlord may suffer or incur in connection with Guest's possession, use or misuse of the Premises, excluding Landlord's acts or negligence.

COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATIONS. Guest shall promptly comply with all laws, ordinances, requirements and regulations of the federal, state, county, municipal and other authorities, and the fire insurance underwriters. However, Guest shall not by this provision be required to make alterations to the exterior of the building or alterations of a structural nature. SUBORDINATION OF AGREEMENT.

If the matter is not resolved by negotiation, the parties will resolve the dispute using the below Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) procedure, unless the dispute or controversy meets the requirements to be brought before California's small claims court or is an unlawful detainer proceeding.
