FOR SALE USFS Leased Cabin Strawberry, CA (off Highway 50) American River. Tall pines. The cabin people actually stay in.Leave Highway 50 behind and the trees close in. This green forest cabin sits on USFS leased land in Strawberry, steps from the American River and a short walk to swimming and fishing holes. Not a subdivision. Not a resort. A High Sierra hideout with shade, river water, and room for the whole crew.The porch does the greeting first: wood deck, Adirondack chair, oars, snowshoes, pinecones, an American-flag pillow, and a door standing open into knotty pine. Inside, the living room is built around a stone fireplace and woodstoveleather couches, antler lights, a hide on the wall, and windows that make the forest part of the furniture. The kitchen and dining room run together so nobody is stuck in a back room: vintage appliances, a long rustic table, cowhide underfoot, and a straight shot out to the kitchen patio for firelight and stars.Bedrooms are cabin-sized, not city-sized. Main level has generous rooms and a full bath. Upstairs, an A-frame loft and a king bedroom with a half bath give kids and guests their own territorylog beds, bold blankets, sloped wood ceilings. Tucked into the eaves is a freestanding soaking tub that turns a dusty river day into a lodge night.Out back and all around: picnic shade, hammock trees, a path to the pools, and shared spring water so clean it tastes like it came out of the mountain. Warm up with the woodstove when the Sierra night drops. This cabin doesn't pretend to be new. It pretends to be yours.
This home has an HOA.
