Guests and parking

The Pinewood sleeps up to 14 guests. Placer County separately limits guests aged 12 and over to 12 overnight and 18 during the day; children under 12 don’t count toward those limits, so a group of 14 includes at least two children under 12.

Layout, stairs and winter

The cabin has several levels with stairs between them. In heavy snow the grill and outdoor furniture may be put away, and Caltrans may require chains or 4WD/AWD on the drive in.
