Where
do I park?
The
drive is gravel and you can fit 6-7 cars total depending on
how large the cars are. You can pull 2-3 to the right hand
side and then fit 4 in the front section ( parked tandem).
Please drive slowly on the gravel- it’s been placed
to make driving easier when there are snow weekends! Please
do not park on the street as there is a Pine Mountain Club
regulation against street parking and you can receive a ticket.
When you pull to the right, be careful to pull into the graded
driveway entrance and then to the right. The entrance is marked
by lanterns on either side. Past the lanterns the side becomes
a slope.
In
Palm Desert please park carpool and park in the garage or

not good in the area—you lose coverage just outside
of Frazier Park about 15 minutes from the cabin. But you can
bring a calling card for the house phone for any calls you
may need to make. You may also give the house phone number
to your family in case they need to reach you: (661) 242-2642.
In
Palm Desert your cell phone will work.
