Escape to your personal retreat for the holidays to this classic cabin in Dorrington! You'll surely appreciate the large, level lot with a nicely paved driveway, which leads to a 2 car garage. From the garage, there's easy access to the home using the covered walkway. Enter through the mud room, where there is plenty of room for storing your snow-play and beach toys! Beyond the mudroom, you'll enjoy the open floor plan boasting a large living area with cathedral ceilings and a perfectly situated woodstove, where your family will comfortably gather for years to come - as well as a dining area and kitchen! You'll enjoy tons of natural light streaming through the windows. Further down the hall you'll find a radiant wall heater, along with 2 bedrooms and a full bathroom with tub. Follow the stairs up to the loft area, which is set up with a bonus space and 2 additional bedrooms, along with another full bath. This well maintained cabin is perfect for year-round fun. Snowshoe Springs HOA dues pay for your annual water fee and also allows access to the Snowshoe beach and lake area, along with the option to apply for membership to the Big Trees Village POA, which offers 2 pools, tennis and bocce courts and a park setting, making this the perfect vacation rental opportunity as well! Just minutes from Calaveras Big Trees State Park, Lake Alpine and the Bear Valley Ski Resort. Be sure to view the virtual tour as well.
