About this property
Tucked among towering pines, this adorable cabin is on a quiet cul-de-sac in Upper Moonridge, 100 yards from the National Forest. This 4-bed, 2-bath cabin sleeps 10 comfortably. Remodeled kitchen and baths with heated ceiling lamps for those cold mornings. Step onto National Forest trails where you'll have the woods mostly to yourself. The private hillside is the goldilocks of sledding—steep enough for speed, gentle enough to walk back up. Perfect for teaching kids to snowboard or letting them sled while you watch from the deck. Bonus: there's room to add a garage and extra parking if you want. Four-car parking and no steep stairs to navigate—just a gentle incline, making this accessible for guests with mobility needs. The cabin's location is home to regular sightings of black bears, wild burros, raccoons, squirrels, chipmunks, and coyotes, and is a bird watcher's paradise.
