Step onto the welcoming front porch, breathe in the fresh mountain air, and feel the pace of life begin to slow. Inside, the cabin is warm, inviting, and full of character. Hardwood floors, vintage doors, and classic details add timeless appeal, while the gas-burning wood stove creates a cozy place to gather after a day of hiking, skiing, wine tasting, or exploring the Sierra Nevada. The kitchen features a classic Wedgewood cook stove, bringing a touch of vintage charm to the heart of the home. The bathroom offers a clawfoot tub, slate shower, and the convenience of an on-demand water heater. What makes this property truly special is the land. Six acres in Arnold is a rare find, offering privacy, trees, fresh mountain air, and the feeling of having your very own forest.

Located near Big Trees State Park, high-country recreation, hiking, lakes, wine tasting, skiing, and the charm of the Highway 4 corridor, 2895 Ponderosa is more than a cabin it is a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and create your own mountain legacy. Small cabin. Big land. Endless possibilities.
