You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Spacious home with seasonal lake access. Pet friendly!

Welcome to our hidden gem at Cove's End!

Our lake house truly is hidden among the pine and oak trees as it sits on a merged lot at the end of the cove. Life is better at the lake! Especially with a private dock with seasonal lake access (typically March through August) and your choice of 2 kayaks, 2 stand-up paddle boards and a paddle boat.

Experience movie night on the 85" 4K Samsung TV, powered by high speed internet (100+ mbps).

Enjoy grilling your favorite dish on the Traeger Grill and creating other masterpieces in the large open kitchen. Then gather with loved ones at the large dining room table or dine al fresco on the deck overlooking the cove.

The game room is the perfect hangout spot to watch the big game and play some games of your own. Challenge your friends or family to a game of pool, chess, checkers, giant jenga, Centipede, Golden Tee, Mortal Kombat or a wide variety of board games and card games. Let the games continue in the backyard with ping-pong and cornhole.

And when its time to turn in for the night, relax in one of the 3 main level bedrooms (2 cal-king beds and one queen bed), or bunk with your friends or family in the large downstairs bunk room (two sets of bunk beds and a trundle bed). For extra sleeping arrangements, the sofa in the game room converts to a bed as well.

Enjoy the lake house year round, with two freestanding fireplaces (one on each level), and central heating and air conditioning. Just over an hour to Dodge Ridge, Cove's End is the perfect base camp for all your adventures in and near Yosemite.

Pine Mountain Lake Amenities:
Located in the gated Pine Mountain Lake resort, enjoy access to golf, horseback riding, tennis and pickleball courts, a shared pool, and three beaches. During the summer months, the Marina also offers boat rentals (sailboat, fishing boat, paddle boat, kayak, paddle board) and dining at the Lakeside Cafe.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access keeps you connected, and a DVD player is provided for your entertainment. The bathroom with a shower/tub combination features a jetted bathtub and a hair dryer.
Don't miss out on recreational opportunities including a spa tub and 6 outdoor pickleball courts. Additional features at this vacation home include an arcade/game room and barbecue grills.

This was my first time staying in Groveland, Ca and it was amazing. I love the PML it had so many things to do, it was also cloae to Yosemite amd Hetch Hachery. I loved the house, the kids enjoyed everything in it and didnt want to leave the house. The only thing i didnt know was the gate fee which came as a supriwe. Overall amazing property.

We loved this house - plenty of room to spread out, so many activities for both adults and kids, the kitchen is well stocked. The location of the house is perfect, close to the beach. Kids enjoyed kayaks and paddle boards. We would live to come back!

Quiet, convenient location
We have stayed in more than one unit at PML and this was definitely a nice space. Very quiet, on the far end of an inlet to the lake. No jumping off the dock here, the water is not deep enough, but it is a short drive teach or you can use the kayaks to get out and about the lake. The property was nice and we appreciated the enclosed dog run for our pups. Rooms were clean and there were lots of games and activities for us to use. While we were in the property there were some maintenance issues that we had to report to the owner, but Tyson was very responsive and we heard back immediately. The issues could not be resolved during our stay and did impact the experience, but we appreciate the effort Tyson put in. Hoping that the owners make a few needed upgrades and we would definitely stay here again.

Birthday weekend Trip
Overall the property was very nice and the host was very kind and communicated well. I checked in on Friday and departed on Sunday . We had no power on Saturday which is very upsetting when you can’t enjoy anything in the house for your birthday celebration. Cold showers , no wifi , no tv or lights inside or out. I know the host doesn’t control power but please accommodate.

Absolutely great house!
This is the best house we have visited at the PML (and we have been at the lake 5 times). It has everything that a family with kids can dream off: boats, board games, arcades, a gated ping-pong table of a good quality, great swings, a pool table, a large TV with a big collection of movies. The house is big and clean. The host is helpful and easy to contact. The only drawback is that you can't swim near the house. It's the cove's end, and the water is shallow. You need to paddle to the lake's beaches, which we didn't mind at all.

This is our third stay, and it is our very favorite property on Pine Mountain Lake. We love the expansive living and dining area. The kitchen is large and well stocked. The downstairs game room is a made for fun. And we spend lots of time on the deck and dock. It is the perfect house for our extended family's yearly trip to the lake. Many thanks to the owners for sharing their house with us!!

Excellent Base Camp for Yosemite
We really enjoyed our stay! We spent several days at Yosemite, a great afternoon at Rainbow Pools much closer to the house, and a lot of time on the lake as well. We made good use of the grill, the giant TV was a hit on the one day we had a lot of rain, and the arcade games were nostalgic for the adults and fun for the kids. The giant tub in the master bath is even bigger than you think it is from the pictures, and very relaxing. The kids loved the swings and the hammock in the back yard. We took all the paddleboard/kayaks/peddleboat out and enjoyed them all. Life jackets were available in a variety of sizes, including kid sizes. Plenty to do here to keep an active family busy and happy!

Great home when visiting Yosemite
This home was a great place to base ourselves on our trip to Yosemite (which is a pleasant 30 minute drive to the gates). The house is well furnished, clean, and comfortable. Our kids really liked playing outside on the swings and exploring the back yard after a day of hiking in Yosemite while we bar-b-qued. When the sun went down, the whole family ended up in the game room playing together. It made for a really fun weekend for everyone. I don't think you will find a nicer home at Pine Mountain Lake for the entire family to enjoy.

Amazing spot at scenic and peaceful lake
An amazing weekend. The location is prime with it's own little dock, kayaks and paddle boat. The house is really well laid out with wide open comfortable dining and living room for adults on the main floor, and a big game room downstairs for the kids (and dads) to hang out and play pool and video games. Bedrooms are all generously sized and comfortably appointed. The Traeger smoker was a great bonus - we had a 17lb brisket smoking all night. Highly recommend for a relaxing lake get away - we'll be back for sure!

Hidden gem by the lake
We spent 4 nights at this wonderful hidden place during the tail end of the pandemic. 2 families with 5 kids. The house was spacious, lots of room to comfortably fit everyone, with a wonderful deck to enjoy the scenery and some yoga. The kids enjoyed the game room, the swings and the occasional wildlife visitors. The kayaks were great and we were able to fit all 9 of us for a short ride to the beach. Overall a fantastic place to relax and get away from the city. Bonus: free community pool less than 5min driving from the cabin
