The Emerald Cabin is located on a quiet dirt road of a rural neighborhood. (Please note: there are neighbors, however the neighbors don’t feel too close because of the forest between us, the forest around us makes it feel private and secluded when inside.)

We have one large open common space (sleeper sofa, living room, kitchen and dining area), a laundry room, full bathroom as well as a primary bedroom and small bunk-bed bedroom with amazing tree views - it feels like you're sleeping in a treehouse!

Drive time to towns close by: Middletown – 10/15 min Kelseyville – 20/25 min Lakeport – 30/35 min Clearlake – 30 min Calistoga - 40 min St. Helena - 60 min Napa - 1hr 15min San Francisco - 2 hours The driveway is slightly steep, but lined with gravel to help with traction, however we have a parking space for 2WD vehicles at the entry way of the driveway up at the road, under the address sign. We recommend that you park here if you have 2WD to eliminate any issues of getting out of the driveway. The neighborhood is very rural and located next to the Whispering Pines Resort with some paved roads, but also dirt roads, which can make driving here in the winter somewhat tricky. Occasionally it snows in the winter and may require a AWD/4WD. Please plan accordingly. The cabin is on a quiet dirt road, with only a few surrounding neighbors. Because our cabin is nestled in the mountains, it is important to remember that it can feel like quite a drive! So please make sure to map it out from your location so you are not surprised by this. It is also important to note that this is a rustic cabin on a dirt road and with that comes a little dust! Texting is faster than calling for us to get back to you. We are available just down the road for any emergencies or issues that may arise. We are also a text or phone call away for any question or concerns. The main heat source is a mini split unit in the main common space. In addition, the bedrooms and bathroom have plug in wall units that can add extra heat. Bring extra layers as it does get a bit chilly in the evening, even in the summer. The main cooling source is the same mini split unit in the main common space. In addition, the bedrooms and bathroom are equipped with fans for your comfort and all the windows are lined with screens so you can open up the windows and sleep with the fresh cool forest air. We have 1 security camera at the front door and one facing the drive way. This is for yours (and our) safety. If you have any concerns about this please feel free to let us know. It is also a good idea to bring some kind of mosquito/bug repellent, more so for the summer months.
