The Ultimate Adventure Basecamp: Private Treehouse, Zipline & Sledding! A family-friendly, pet-friendly, kid-approved cabin nestled among the trees on a private one-acre wooded lot within the Sequoia National Forest. Hit the many off-roading trails where you’ll find endless trails with watering holes and waterfalls. Family fun starts here! Trade the national park crowds for your own private wilderness. Nestled at 7,200 feet directly inside the Sequoia National Forest, Ponderosa Cabin offers a secluded experience where adventure is literally in your backyard.

The Cabin Experience:
Our cozy 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom retreat sits on a private acre. You own the forest from the driveway to the crest of the hill—feel free to roam and play!
Gourmet Dining: Want a night off from the kitchen? We can connect you with a Le Cordon Bleu-trained private chef to prepare a world-class meal right at the cabin.
The "Pack-It-In" Lifestyle: To keep Ponderosa secluded, we are an hour from the nearest full grocery store. We recommend bringing your favorite supplies to enjoy a true "off-the-grid" feel with all the modern comforts. The kitchen is fully stocked with all your cooking needs.
Important Logistics for a Great Stay:
Location Accuracy: Please note that while we are inside the Sequoia National Forest, the main gate to Sequoia National Park is about 2 hours away. You get the beauty without the crowds!
Winter Travel: Highway 190 often requires tire chains. We strongly recommend trip insurance for winter bookings.
Safety First: To keep the fun going, a digital release of liability is required after booking due to the zipline and treehouse.
