About this house rental
A Mountain Rose is a cozy, two bedroom home in the magnificent pines and cedars of Pollock Pines in the Sierra Mountains. The trees are bountiful, and their smells are relaxing and refreshing! We do allow up to 2 well-behaved pets with prior approval & extra pet fees. (We abide by El Dorado County's Vacation Home Rental laws. Permit # VHR072381 & TOT#T48436)
4 guests, BUT if you have children under 6 yrs, they don't count in the guest total.
You may charge your Electrical Vehicle with prior approval. We charge $30. (240 volt 50amp, 14-50 outlet)
Our home is located two miles from Hwy 50 and about 50 miles from both Sacramento and South Lake Tahoe. Just a quick drive to the famous Apple Hill area or Placerville.
Our little house in the woods is a great place for a romantic getaway, families, or friends. It is decorated in a fashion to make everyone's stay feel extra special. It's not like a musty old cabin in the woods. Our hardwood floors help to make our home even more charming. We have complimentary WIFI for those who just can't leave technology at home. We consider long-term rentals. Please come and enjoy the relaxation and smells of the pines after a day of adventure and fun!
Our well-stocked kitchen is a delight to prepare meals for family and friends. You may enjoy eating at our breakfast bar or at our dining room table that may be extended for larger groups. Maybe you would enjoy BBQing and eating outside instead? There are tables both in the front and backyards. It is so relaxing to eat and chat outside.
We have a wonderful cozy fireplace to warm you up, or you may want to venture outside and enjoy our fire pit and gaze into the night sky to check out the stars. You may want to roast marshmallows and make delicious s'mores! A Mountain Rose is like camping in luxury!
At A Mountain Rose, we have many activities for the family, including an array of board games, croquet, air hockey, and even a ping-pong table. We have a smart TV and offer many DVDs for your enjoyment. Just a short walk away, there is a great playground & disc golf course. There is something to keep everyone busy!
Nearby is the very popular Sly Park Recreation Area with the beautiful Jenkinson Lake. It has 645 acres of surface water and great fishing opportunities. The lake has a boat launch and a boat rental facility. (Kayaks, canoes, pedal boats, and row boats) Of course, if you want to bring your own boat, we have plenty of parking. Swimming and water skiing are allowed, but personal water crafts are not. In the winter, you may go snow shoeing, sledding, or just play in the snow. It's just a spectacular setting for many outdoor activities!
For the Apple Hill (Camino) lovers, we are less than ten miles from this special area! In April, there is the Apple Blossom Festival. In the summer, there is the cherry and berry harvest. In the fall months, the traditional harvest season is in full swing. You can enjoy the cornucopia of fruits, ciders, vegetables, wines, baked goods, and homemade preserves. Of course, in winter, you can start your own family traditions as you cut down your own Christmas tree and enjoy the magic in the air! Oh, I forgot, you may want to visit a local winery and bring some back to enjoy!
Do you love snow skiing? Then, you'll be glad to hear that we're about 35 miles from Sierra at Tahoe or about 50 miles from Heavenly Mountain Resort.
We are about 15 miles from the charming historical 'Gold Rush' town of Placerville. It is a peaceful blend of old and new that offers something for everyone. There is a lot to do, and you can easily spend the day exploring the area.
If you're into gambling, then Red Hawk Casino is about 20 miles away. They have slot machines, gambling tables, restaurants, and entertainment.
There is so much to do! Of course, you can just sit on the front deck, relax, and enjoy a book and your favorite beverage!!!!

We had a wonderful stay. The house has everything you could want for a home away from home. The neighborhood is quiet and pretty. The clubhouse has 2 pools and a swingset. We had a nice stroll through the disc golf coures in the morning too. Super close to Jenkinson lake.

This is a very comfortable house for two couples (2BR/1Ba) with a well-stocked kitchen. We stayed here 3 nights while day hiking in the El Dorado National Forest. Quite close to a Safeway and a couple of good restaurants in Pollock Pines. Good, direct communication with the owner before/during/after our stay. Would not hesitate to stay again and highly recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in this area.

Very cozy little place. We stayed here for a little over a month and not only does this place come fully equipped with everything you could possibly need but it just had a real comfortable you're right at home feeling. I also love the open fireplace. It gave such a peaceful ambience. Wonderful place to stay.

We made a mid-week trip here for the first time from Napa and had a lovely time! Catherine the host was always available and helpful in getting our bearings. The community amenities and Sly Park Recreation area are very convenient. Home was very clean and cozy, with all the wares you need in the kitchen. If you're a movie buff, there is also a vast DVD collection to sift through. We'll be back.

It was perfect. Very relaxing. Perfect location for days at Jenkinson Lake. Lazy days at the pool, and close to groceries. Catherine was kind and helpful. The nightly ping pong tournaments between the teen boys were epic. We all can't wait to come back again next summer. When your teenage son tells you it' was a "W" vacation, you know it's great.

We loved our stay at A Mountain Rose! The house was stocked full of fun things for our whole family to do. Our 8 & 12 year old loved the garage filled with ping pong, fooseball, and air hockey. Our 3 year old loved the closet full of blocks, Little People, Mr. Potatohead and coloring supplies. Us adults loved the fully stocked kitchen, comfy bed and huge DVD selection. We also enjoyed being so close to the lake! Lifelong memories were made!!!

From the start, the owner was so pleasant and easy to work with. She was super responsive and very kind. The home is adorable! Very clean and very well taken care of! This was a weekend getaway for my husband and I. We fished by day and relaxed by night. We even challenged each other in some foosball and table tennis! Overall, it was an excellent experience and we will be back for sure!

We wanted a base for a weekend of snow play and it was perfect. There's not much snow at this level which was what we wanted. Just a short drive to deep snow or ski resorts. The owner is very attentive and the home is very well appointed. It has everything you will need. It was cozy and comfy snd we would definitely stay again.

We had such a wonderful time resting and relaxing at A Mountain Rose! The house was clean and the kitchen fully stocked with kitchen ware and appliances. The house has everything that you need. We enjoyed the cozy wood fireplace while catching up on some reading. A short drive to Placerville was a fun trip! Catherine is such a gracious hostess, we are looking forward to the next trip.

What a beautiful home! It was so beautiful clean and tidy! We loved our stay came a little late in the year can’t wait to go back up earlier and stay longer. The owner was very attentive to all of our needs and super easy to contact. I wish they were all like this it would make my decisions easier. Some very nice restaurants nearby. Plus a Safeway very close.

We stayed at A Mountain Rose while exploring Apple Hill and Placerville for our 'girls weekend get away'. The location is great, just down the road from Sly Park lake. The home is well stocked and has just about anything you could need. We enjoyed a very comfortable and relaxing stay...so much so that I am brining my hubby and parents with me to stay at A Mountain Rose next month and plan to use the air hockey and ping pong tables in the garage!!! Catherine was easy to communicate with and very responsive and helpful.

Overall .. a great comfortable home. Love the fact that it has lots of board games and the game tables for the kids. Only downside is the the beds are really high... it does have a stool i wouldnt mind it so much but I do have a 1 year old that I breastfeed and cosleep. It became uncomfortable... i was so afraid my baby would fall off. But overall a really really great home..loved our stay. Catherine is a great host . Super friendly and very sweet . She will answer all your questions right away. ✅️ 👌👌💯

Perfect weekend getaway
My daughter in law had a Bachelorette party in Tahoe, they live in SF. We live in Sacramento. This spot was 1 hour from Tahoe and 1 from Sac. Very clean and up to date home. Perfect for 3 adults, 1 child and 1 little dog. Not much snow, but we found some nearby, as well as a playground 1 block away. Great backyard and short drive to the lake. Stocked up at Safeway, 1 mile away, and used the excellent kitchen facilities for 3 days. Definitely a 5 star destination. Too bad we had to use VRBO to book, as they skim too much $, and deposit paid back over 2 weeks! Owner is very nice and available though.

Perfect get away vacation house
Loved this vacation home. Owner communicated well, checked in daily to ensure all was working and meeting expectations. Quick trip up hill for snow play; 10 minutes down hill for downtown Placerville restaurants and shops. Awesome park for kids and dog about 3 minute walk around the corner. Nice front patio and spacious backyard to enjoy the sunshine or time away from active kid & dog🤪. Comfortable beds and furniture which is important to me. Well stocked kitchen, lots of kid and adult DVDs, kids activities too. Washer and dryer too. Safeway, CVS, gas station close by 2-4 miles maybe. Great location for Jenkinson lake hikes or other area nature exploration. Fantastic weekend, great rates too!

Perfect 3 Nights
We had a wonderful time at Pollock Pines and staying at this property was one of the best parts. The place is very nice and easy to get to. Instructions from the owner were clear and easy to follow. We had a lot of fun playing table tennis, curling up in front of the fire and watching movies. The beds were very high off the ground and my two beagles had a hard time figuring out how to get up, but the did. The backyard was nicely fenced in with a wire fence and I had no trouble letting my pups out for play/poops whenever they asked. We will be back to stay again.

NIce house
Clean, very well stocked, modern with a traditional and homey feeling. Loved the large fenced in yard for our dogs and the proximity to great dog-friendly hiking. Owner responsive but no issues requiring help. In the woods but close to Safeway and restaurants. Near Rt. 50 but quiet and peaceful. We would stay here again.

Amazing location
My family and I stayed here and truly enjoyed it. I have 2 kids under 2 and very kid friendly. There is even a park around the corner walking distance. We really wanna go back once it snows. There are even show toys available in garage. I enjoyed beating my husband in a few games of ping pong. Really enjoyed the fireplace made some smores .

Thumbs up to a Mountain Rose
Just as advertised! A wonderful place to stay. Something not mentioned, but I think is good for dog owners to know; The backyard is highly secured so we could take our pup off-leash and let her sniff around the yard without any chance of an accidental escape. This is something other dog-friendly homes do not always have. The house is close to the lake and hiking which made it easy to do multiple excursions in one day. Hiking early morning and kayaking in the later morning. Lots of activities and wonderful cool AC in the house made for great afternoon entertainment when it was very hot outside. Catherine checked in to make sure we were having a good experience. We will definitely be back!

Great for a family stay
I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent at A Mountain Rose in Pollock Pines. Catherine was extremely communicative and always available by phone if I had any questions. I also appreciated that nearly everything in the home was clearly labeled. The kitchen was fully stocked with cookware and utensils- I even found a baby spoon to use for my little one! Ping pong in the garage was so much fun and the backyard was nice and relaxing. I loved this quiet, warm home and will stay again.
One thing to mention- I could not find the fire pit that I had seen in the photos, but that doesn't mean there wasn't one there. I should have asked Catherine about it.

Cozy And Clean
We had a great time in the sierra lakes this sumar, and definitely part of it was to be able to come to a clean home. My 2 year old daughter has breathing issues so being in a house with no fumes or pet smells really help us having a good night sleep. The owner was very helpful in the process and answer all my questions in a timely manner. We will definitely keep Mountain Rose in mind for our Winter and spring vacations.

Pollock Pines Getaway
I have stayed in this home 4 times or more. Each time I go, I thoroughly enjoy the home, the neighborhood, and the other facets of the area. The owner is very accommodating and responsive and is a genuinely good person. I highly recommend this property if you have children and want a place to relax.

Gem in the woods
If you're looking to experience nature and pine trees, this is a perfect home to satisfy that desire. The young children in our group found plenty of fun toys to keep them entertained. They also enjoyed the short walk to a picturesque community pool and outdoor play area. You will find the kitchen equipped with everything you need and a grocery store a few miles away. You could sit on the front deck and be content, yet there's so much to do in the surrounding vicinity we didn't sit for long. We visited Gold Bug Mine, Jenkinson Lake, rented a small sail boat at the CSUS Aquatic Center to sail Lake Natoma and more. I would highly recommend this cute home for anyone wishing to get away for a retreat. If you're a hiker, explore the Desolation Wilderness area, another short drive away.
