Further details for this vacation house rental in Mi-Wuk Village, California

This home has satellite television and internet access, air-conditioning, and a 2 car garage. There are 2 bedrooms upstairs; one with 2 full beds, and another with 2 bunk beds. The lower Master Bedroom is huge - it has 1 full bed, and 2 twin beds at the opposite end, and a private bathroom. Both levels have decks and interior views facing the forest. The cozy main floor of the house features a wood burning stove; the house is also heated by a forced air furnace and auxiliary electric base board radiators.

Even in comfort, you won't confuse this comfortable home with anything other than a peaceful mountain home. The main floor living area is nothing but country peace!

The house is located in Mi-Wuk Village California. It is off state highway 108 between Twain Harte and Sierra Village. Dodge Ridge is 25 minutes away in normal traffic. The closest larger City is Sonora, about 20 miles downhill. San Francisco and the bay area are 156 miles west. Pinecrest Lake is about 20 minutes away, and Lake Don Pedro is about 35 minutes away. The entrance to Yosemite National Park is about 90 minutes away.

The location is on a quiet cul-de-sac which gets very little vehicle traffic, and is not crowded by other houses on any side. The two car garage entrance in front of the house is on a nearly level plane with the street for easy access. The rear of the lot drops down and eventually borders the Forest, so the ridge and valley views are outstanding. The house is cozy, maintained with great care, and newly re-modeled.

Other Activities:

Shopping, boating, wildlife viewing, rock climbing

Beautiful Mountain Home, Great Location!!

Review Submitted: February 26, 2008 Date of Stay: February 2008
My husband and twin 3 yr. olds stayed at this home and had an incredible time. The house is beautiful: modern, easy to access needed items (such as heater, blankets, dishes, etc.), very clean and spacious, nice ammenities, and very "homey" feel.

Owner was very friendly and helpful and made the transaction easy. Her description of the home was accurate. We had concerns about "kid-safe" housing without upstairs outdoor decks and other potential hazards and she was very helpful in describing everything so we could make a good choice (and her house was a good choice in this regard as well). I would most definitely recommend this house to a friend.

We found it very easy to get to because it's close to the highway (but far enough so you don't hear or see any sign of it), it's in the mountains but relatively low elevation so there was plenty of snow to play in but not so much that it was hard to drive in, and it's within 10 minutes of restaurants, stores and gas; 20 minutes to the snow parks.

Within a day our kids started referring to the house as "our snow house" and since we've been back home (a week) they have asked at least once a day when we're going back to our snow house. We had a lovely, memorable vacation and are looking forward to going back next year!

Owner's Response: Thank you for taking the time to write such a thoughtful review! We do put a lot of effort into our getaway house, and strive to keep the house as inviting for our guests as we want it kept for our own visits.

It's great to hear online comments from guests that echo the guestbook at the house. Welcome back next year!

Great vacation!

Review Submitted: August 26, 2010 Date of Stay: August 2010
We recently stayed here for a week and LOVED the house. We only had 2 adults and 3 boys (8, 10 and 11) and had plenty of room. The house is very clean, well designed and has all the pots, pans and dishes you need. The beds were comfy and we loved having the washer/dryer available. The location is very convenient to all that the area has to offer. Certainly the best view compared to the other houses in the area. We ate most of our meals out on the huge top deck and spent the nights watching the meteor shower.

There is so much to do in the area and so much we didn't have time to do. Next time, we will go to other lakes and rivers, Yosemite, Columbia State Park, Murphy and the other caverns in the area. We did get to Pinecrest Lake twice, fished Beardsley, rented a speedboat and went wakeboarding and tubing at New Melones, Moaning Caverns (including the zip line), wine tasting and exploring at Ironstone (the boys caught huge polliwogs there) and gold panning in Jamestown. It was the perfect family vacation and it was so nice to have this house to come back to at the end of the day. Thank you to the Ridenour's for letting us use your house! You've done a great job with it.

Expectations Exceeded- Wow Great House

Review Submitted: July 16, 2010 Date of Stay: July 2010
My family of 4 is here right now and it is exactly what we were looking for. The treeline is excellent and the quiet is utterly serene. Sitting on the lower deck, basking in the shade on a spectacular summer day, enjoying the cool updraft of air from the still forest below watching the birds dart and flutter between the Douglas Fir, Black Oak, and Cedar forest. Games for the teenagers, great walks, wonderful air conditioning if the temperature happens to climb.
Activities abound for those interested in adventure, solitude available to feed the soul. Not at all remote but removed for traffic of all types. Great Kitchen for cooking, and fantastic nearby resturants if cooking in not what you want.
Dog friendly.

Review Submitted: June 1, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
We stayed at this house for a week in May, 2009. This is a great place to get away...located on a quiet cul-de-sac. The view from the upper deck (yes there are two decks) is awesome...unobstructed Stanislaus Forest. Beds are comfortable. Great surround system for listening to your favorite tunes (plugged in my I-Pod). TV is there - but I don't do TV. Two very nice bathrooms with way cool showers. The kithchen has all you will need. A super deal. Don't pass this one up. This is a very scenic part of California....a fun drive to Yosemite with other great State Parks nearby. I'll bet this place is cool in the winter, too.
Owner's Response: Hi Greg,

I'm glad you and your buddies had a great getaway up there. Thanks for all the feedback, the great review, and the goodies you left!

Hope you get back up in the winter sometime!

Spring in Mi Wuk

Review Submitted: May 6, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We had such a great time on our first visit, we decided to come back again. The house was again immaculate, with all the appliances and accessories functioning properly. We even got to know some of the neighbors.

Even though we just missed the end of the ski season at Dodge Ridge, and we had seen many of the local attractions during last year's stay, there was still lots to do to keep the kids and us busy. The kids loved playing in the snow, (in shorts and tees), and the day trip to Yosemite and Hetch Hetchy are spectacular, definitely worth doing.

Thanks again for making you wonderful vacation home available. I'm sure we'll be back...again.
