Shaver Lake Holiday Lake in California is the most popular

If you are looking for a "cabin in the woods," the experience, only drive east of Fresno, California to Shaver Lake.

One of our most recent discoveries is Shaver Lake, a little over an hour northeast of Fresno and an ideal place to include vacation in northern California. The change of scenery during that short trip is dramatic downward from the flat farmland near Fresno through forests, rolling hills and then to almost 6000 meters in the pine forests that surround this idyllic lake. Central Valley residents for a long time to Shaver Lake is a great place to experience the Sierras, and now - judging by the boom in real estate area - people from all over California have started to catch on.

Shaver Lake is tucked between Yosemite and Sequoia National Parks and points to the same natural beauty found in the parks. The difference is that remains largely Shaver undiscovered and therefore not as prone to seasonal traffic congestion. Shaver is still "unusual" for visitors who want the experience of visiting a small mountain village with only a couple of general stores and a handful of restaurants serving the style grub home. Only about 3,000 people living in the area.

This is exactly what we wanted as we went on our own "cabin in the woods" getaway. We contacted Vacation Rental Specials to reserve a booth to meet our specifications. With images to study the Internet, we to see exactly what kind of place we were renting, both inside and out. We wanted a log cabin experience is true, but with modern comforts - And that's exactly what we have.

Nearly everything was built of logs, all right, but the house is more modern services that most people have in their primary residence. Us learn that this particular "Cabin" is owned by a family in Monterrey that uses part time and is placed in the pool Holiday Rental Specials much of the year.

Our rental, "Whalen Log Cabin," was a million dollars home with two bedrooms, a loft, 1.75 baths, dishwasher, cable TV, DVD and a washer and dryer.

Our family of three was swimming in extra space and, in accordance with Bill Wingo, owner of Vacation Rental Specialties, Many guests will bring another couple or family and stay for a week at a time. It's a new trend called "togethering" - vacation exchange with other family and friends and reduce rental costs and at the same time having the opportunity to visit and experience new places and activities together.

According to Wingo, There is also a trend in vacation rentals now to high-end properties such as log cabin Whalen. In business for nine years, Wingo said that was not done long time that people were just looking for a rustic getaway in the mountains - a simple cabin with few amenities, but located in the desert. Today, customers are looking for all the extras and are willing to pay more to make your home away from home while relaxing and luxurious.

In addition, customers are beginning to expect that the rental of the property to be more service oriented, Wingo said. Rather than just deliver on a set of keys, property managers today also have to put in a hat and do things like concierge make reservations for boat rentals, dinner or anything else that guests can be expected your stay. It used to be that guests were responsible for taking out the garbage and provide beds - currently, which often are among the services provided by the company rentals, although sometimes at a cost.

With 23 miles of shoreline, Shaver Lake has plenty of activities to choose from, including fishing, boating, water skiing, windsurfing, hiking and in winter, all winter sports like alpine skiing at a nearby ski area.

He was appointed CB shaver pioneer logger, which records in the area during the last 1890s.

For many visitors, Shaver Lake is actually a point of departure for more hikes in the national Sierra trading post near Shaver and two LakeForest other lakes, Huntington and Edison, in the vicinity. Eighteen small lakes are in the desert Kaiser, north of Huntington Lake.

We were looking for a little hiking and simply enjoying the local culture in the small business district Shaver Lake. We enjoyed our steak dinner down Trading in the Post - the floor is tilted downward in some areas, but large rock fireplace creates the perfect environment.

The fireplace in our back holiday home also helped set the mood for this "cabin in the woods" experience "- Instead of watching TV as you normally can do at home, put some games on the floor near the fireplace comprehensive and thoroughly enjoyed a respite from the daily life of the family in the city.
