Our historic Pinecrest Lake Cabin has been in the family since the 1920's and is currently enjoyed by the many descendents of the Morgan family (Ridge's, Hooten's, White's, Morgan's).  George Morgan originally immigrated to Columbia, CA in 1851 and a family home was maintained in Sonora until 1966.  Kennedy Meadows and then Pinecrest Lake (circa 1918) were favorite summer vacation spots for the Morgan family. 

Pinecrest Lake is located in the Stanislaus National Forest 30 miles east of Sonora at the  gateway to the Emigrant Wilderness area.  The lake is perfect for swimming, kayaking, sailing and trout fishing.  The area around  Pinecrest Lake offers many day hiking and backpacking opportunities.  The Pinecrest Lake Ranger Station schedules regular interpretive hikes and outdoor programs during the summer months.  Facilities at Pinecrest Lake include an outdoor movie theater,  small grocery store, tackle and  sports store, library and The Serene Bean coffee kiosk. 

 The cabin is located on a quiet street and is approximately 400 ft. from the lake.  We have recently remodeled and redecorated the cabin which included the addition of forced air heating, new appliances, all new bedding and refinished wood flooring, walls and ceilings, while maintaining the character of this nearly one hundred year old family cabin. 
 

The cabin has three bedrooms and can accomodate a maximum of six  guests.  Two bedrooms have one queen bed and the third bedroom has two twin beds.  The newly remodeled bathroom has a classic old claw foot bath tub and shower.
 

An antique Wedgewood stove in the kitchen and pot belly stove in the  living room add to the overall character of our Pinecrest Lake cabin.  The front porch is a favorite gathering place for family meals on the large picnic table.  A kayak, beach chairs, barbecue and porch swing are available for guests.
 

The kitchen is fully equipped and a washer and dryer are located on the back porch for guest use.
