About this cabin rental
Kick back on the deck of this mountain cabin and sip your morning coffee while taking in the majestic views of Slate Mountain. Or, watch for falling stars and search for constellations free of light and smog polution. The unobstructed views of the night sky are tremendous! You may plan your rock climbing trek or fishing expedition up the Tule River while sitting at the dining table. The comfortable couches are perfect to curl up with a novel in front of a fire as snow falls around this peaceful cabin before you head out sledding with the kids.
You will love the five-minute walk to the Camp Nelson general store for an ice cream, or a Pizza from the Saloon.
This perfectly located cabin is ideal for peaceful time away from cell phones, computers and the hustle and bustle of everyday life or merely a foray into the High Sierras to see the giant redwoods in the National Forest and the Trail of 100 Giants. Be advised that last year’s fire devastated surrounding areas and some of the forest is closed for safety reasons.
You can easily visit Sequoia and Kings Canyon on a day trip. However, once you are here you will appreciate the lack of tourists, tourist buses, and the solitude that comes with our quiet hamlet located in the Sequoia National Monument south of Sequoia and Kings Canyon.

My daughter and I took a week's vacation and picked to stay in Camp Nelson! We both loved it! Camp Nelson is a very remote place, away from all the hoopla. The General Store, Pizza & BBQ Place, along with the Bar & Grill a mile away is helpful for things possibly forgotten.Lisa's cabin was perfect for us. Beautiful outside sitting places, gorgeous view from the balcony and inside living quarters was a blessing. The cabin in located in a quiet neighborhood with lots of roaming deer! The kitchen was well-equipped making meal prep easy. Plenty of linens, towels for kitchen and bath. Home was clean up on arriving, and bedrooms/beds were comfortable. Communication with Lisa was excellent. If you are looking for a peaceful, beautiful place to stay we highly recommend Camp Nelson and Lisa's Cabin. We will be back!

My boyfriend and I absolutely loved Lisa’s cozy Camp Nelson Cabin! We spent Valentine’s day weekend up there and it was so romantic with the cabin and the snowfall that we had! Highly recommend!

We were lucky to book this place last minute and were appreciative of the fact that Lisa let us check in early as we were traveling with a baby. The cabin is old but clean and quaint. We were pleasantly surprised to find some children's toys for our son to play with and a stroller, however, the advertised highchair was not at the house. When we contacted Lisa about it, she tried to find a solution (we were allowed to borrow a restaurant-type high chair from the Camp Nelson tavern), however, it didn't quite work up as the dining room table is bar height. The second bedroom is a little small but we were able to put a pack n' play snuggly in the corner. I was able to make "black out" curtains by pulling blankets over the window treatments. Unfortunately, it still gets a bit cold at night and that second bedroom doesn't get much heat unless the door is open, same as the other bedroom. The house is near the "center" of town which consists of the Camp Nelson Tavern, lodge, and hardware store and about 2 miles away from the Camp Nelson trailhead (which is beautiful, you must hike this trail!!!). Also, it should be noted that you will have to take your trash away with you either down the mountain or to the Camp Nelson Transfer Station which is located approximately 15 mins north of town and only open on certain days.
