Family cabin which overlooks the iconic Emerald Bay. Great opportunity for someone to pick up where this family left off, making decades of memories in the heart of the Sierras. The recent influx of smoke has made it difficult to capture the essence of the spectacular views from the many windows that provide unfiltered vistas of Emerald Bay. Don't let that stop you from considering this retreat with large open sleeping area upstairs and large gathering areas downstairs. The shore of Emerald Bay is a short hike away or just sit on the deck and enjoy from above. This is a Recreation Residence administered by the Forest Service under the terms of a Special Use Permit making it a cash sale and states that cabin can't be a permanent residence or a rental, the road is not plowed in the winter.The assessor shows a square footage of 520, it seems as though they did not count the upstairs area which is as large as the cabin footprint minus the stairwell.
