A short distance from cross-country skiing, sailing, and more, this smoke-free vacation home lets you experience it all. Pine Mountain Lake is just a short walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make the 14-minute drive to Stanislaus National Forest.

After you return, you can unwind by the communal pool or sip a drink by the outdoor tennis court; you may also like the BBQ grill. As for the great indoors, you can come inside and enjoy the free WiFi.

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. And you can even pack a bit lighter because there's a washer and dryer.
