A short distance from snowboarding, snowmobiling, and more, this smoke-free condo lets you experience it all. Stanislaus National Forest is just steps away and Bear Valley Cross Country and Adventure Company is within an easy 6-minute walk, so leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking.

No need to pay for a restaurant every night, when you've got an oven and a refrigerator on hand, as well as a coffee maker and a toaster. Connect to the free WiFi, or get cozy in front of the cable/satellite TV. And because there's a washer and dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing. Other amenities at this 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental include a BBQ grill and heating.
