Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Twain Harte

Loved our stay here! The house was spacious to share with a group and great for kids (stairs were manageable for and loved the bunk room). We loved the cozy fireplace, coffee options, and all the beautiful private setting. We were also easily able to get groceries at the market nearby. Would definitely stay again!

We had a fantastic stay! The home was incredibly relaxing, with comfortable beds we’ve slept in while traveling. Everything was easy to find and well-organized, making our stay stress-free. As a family traveling with two young girls, we especially appreciated how kid-friendly the space was—tons of toys, games, and entertainment options kept them happy and engaged, giving us parents a chance to truly relax. A perfect spot for families, and we’d absolutely stay again!

Excellent stay in a clean, well-equipped home We thoroughly enjoyed our stay—the place was spotless, and the kitchen had everything we needed. One minor quibble: the coffee maker was tiny and could only brew two cups at a time, which was a bit inconvenient for our group. The location is fantastic—just about an hour’s drive to Yosemite National Park, making it an ideal base for exploring. The community was undergoing construction, and some roads were closed during our visit. We ended up waiting about 45 minutes to enter and pay the $50 entrance fee, which was frustrating. It’s worth asking the host for an update on access or checking ahead before booking.

Great find! Nice and big, beautiful home and backyard, and close to a cute downtown - exactly what we needed for a group stay!

This place was absolutely beautiful, kind of tricky to arrive but javi provides step by step directions on arriving which was absolutely helpful. The pictures do absolutely no justice for how amazing this place is. Javi was also very lenient and open to hearing out my concerns/ideas. I would definitely recommend and come back a million times.

The Shepherd House is the perfect place with-in walking distance to our family, downtown restaurants, shopping and more! Very clean with beautiful decor. The time period materials used in the renovation were perfect! The backyard was a great place to relax after a busy day. Kitchen and bathrooms were well stocked with everything we needed. Emily was a great host and very responsive to all questions. We will definitely be back!

We had an amazing stay at Yvette's place! The house was spotless, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. Yvette was also a fantastic host, always quick to respond and accommodating. We would definitely recommend their place and stay again.

We had a wonderful time! What a gorgeous and comfortable house. Thank you so much Jessica!!

This is a lovely space, very roomy, clean and convenient. The view from the kitchen is beautiful and it is a peaceful and relaxing place to unwind after a day of outdoor adventures. I booked it to explore Yosemite, which is about an hour and 15min or so to the entrance. It’s a beautiful drive, and there is also so much to explore in Sonora, Columbia, and Jamestown. The Gold Rush history of this area is fascinating to me, and this is a perfect basecamp for nature hikes and historical sightseeing. Michele is super helpful, responsive, and gave me excellent suggestions of things to do and even an ideal itinerary for my four days there. Highly recommend.

A great small space to have some me time in the woods! Not too secluded but also not too busy. It’s next to a little creek and hiking trail with fun swim spots for hot days! Hosts were super friendly and are nearby at their home down the way. The place was clean, cozy and had a welcoming feel. Would definitely stay here again!

This little house was perfect! I stayed here for the weekend because my Daughter was getting married close by. It was the perfect place to get some much needed rest after spending a couple of long days getting everything ready. Melissa was great at communicating and gave clear info on checking in and out. Definitely would stay here again!

Madison was very attentive and friendly, we were very happy with our stay and look forward to spending the holidays again with the family at her place!

The house was great and I'd recommend it to people looking for a jumping off point for Yosemite. Super comfy beds, great deck, enjoyable hot tub, beautiful location. Lots to love and we had a great time. A note for potential guests: The community (the Pine Mountain Lake Association) that the house is located within is currently experiencing heavy road work from 4/30/25-7/2/25. We had to wait 20+ mins to get into the neighborhood each time we came back, which was annoying to say the least. Not the fault of the airbnb host, but just FYI on expectations.

The place is one of the best places Airbnb places we’ve got to stay and relax in. Comfortable and homey. Lots of fun games and music stuff We enjoyed the vinyl records ,hot tub and game room. It’s not too far off from some of the most spectacular views and trails. The hosts were very cool and we never had any issues that we needed to talk to them about. They were very accommodating and we would gladly stay here again.

Beautiful cabin looked even better in person! Loved the fenced back yard for our kids. Super easy to find and easy check in. Thank u!

This June I stayed at this amazing place. The pictures don’t do it justice. It has great decks and a very open floor plan. It is literally foot steps from one of the beaches and swim areas at Pine mountain lake. Another plus was the changing station for electric vehicles. We would definitely stay again. Brian is an excellent host.

We stayed at Veronica's beautiful home for a 3-day trip to Yosemite and it was the perfect home base. The home was beautifully decorated and absolutely spotless - the cleanest Airbnb I've ever stayed at! The kitchen is also incredibly well supplied and perfect for making group meals. I can't wait to be back!

The Pine Cone House was perfect for our family stay with 8 adults and two little kids. There are instructions and labels absolutely everywhere, so the house is very easy to navigate. You can tell that Jessica really cares about every guest's stay. We got proactive recommendations, and the house had so much stuff to do and extras available that we realized we could have left almost all of the kids' toys at home. Highly recommend the Pine Cone House for a quiet spot to enjoy the Sierras, relax in the hot tub, entertain the kids (check out the garage!), or make a quick trip into town for mini-golf or a longer trip up to where there's still snow in late Spring :) We loved our stay and are grateful to Jessica for hosting such a fantastic property! Our visit definitely put the Pine Cone House on the top of our list for future Sierra trips!

A great base for enjoying late winter snow! The hosts were super responsive and accommodating. The house was very clean with cute touches. A fun discovery was walking to the creek at the bottom of Long Barn Sugar Pine Road, with the potential for longer hikes/snowshoeing along the creek. Note that the house is at the top of a short but fairly steep road (or slightly longer, less steep road), which would have been challenging for us in snow (2WD w/ chains) but manageable for 4WD. Neighbors staying across the street with sedans parked along the main road during the snow storm and walked up until the plows came through, so that's an option too.
