“You’re not just a renter — you’re our guest!”
Welcome to your home away from home in the heart of the Sierra Nevada. This idyllic mountain community will be your basecamp for all-season fun. Less than three hours from the Bay Area, your family and friends will discover our cozy and inviting cabins among the trees in Dorrington, CA. Take in the winter majesty on the slopes at Bear Valley, and in warmer months enjoy the lakes (Lake Alpine, Utica & Union Reservoirs, etc.), explore the trails at Calaveras Big Trees State Park, picnic along North Fork Stanislaus river, or simply unwind away from the Bay Area grind for a few days on the deck with a book from our lending library.
We are thrilled to welcome you to either the Evergreen Dorrington Chalet or the Evergreen Pinecone Cottage — two Dorrington cabins right across the street from each other! Have a larger group? You can rent them both as a combined property and enjoy the amenities of both properties that complement each other so nicely!
We have been welcoming visitors since 2019 and love to hear how much folks enjoy the cabin and the area.
If you value LAUGHS over luxury, and FUN over fancy, then Evergreen is your new home away from home!
From our family to yours,
Chelsea & Bobby Vaughn
