Main Silverstreak Travel Trailer, Exterior

The bullet-shaped Silver Streak is a cult classic, and we’ve always wanted to stay in one. That’s why we gave this 30 ft aluminium trailer a contemporary makeover and placed it in a great location. Today you’ll find it on Old Yosemite Road, just outside the National Park… but who knows where it will be tomorrow?

Far Meadow. Log Cabin

Log Cabin

Intimate, simple, sometimes even a little primitive, the cabin is an American icon. Its appeal is both as a basic form of shelter and as a treasury of feelings, sensations and memories of family and friends. More than just a structure, the cabin is a way of life. Our cabin is located on a twenty acres piece of land in a remote meadow 7500 feet high surrounded by the Sierra National Forest. When we discovered Far Meadow, this classic American log cabin was already here. So we gave it a face lift, modernizing the roof and updated the interior. It’s close to the A-frame cabin, but in a world of its own.

The log cabin blends classic style with contemporary flair. We‘ve added a large deck outside for reading, napping, or contemplating the nearby river, trees and meadow.

Slow down the pace of your life. Time runs more slowly at Far Meadow.

Inside the cabin you’ll find a spacious room with a hardwood floor – and authentic wooden walls. There’s also a queen-size bed, a single bed and a sofa bed.

The real deal. The walls really are made out of logs, and shelves are stocked with books about the region.

It may be small, but the kitchen has been fully modernized and stocked with everything you’ll need when you arrive. But remember, you also have a BBQ outside. What would be a cabin without the BBQ ribs, links , potatoes and the almost ritual gathering around the fire pit.

Log Cabin, Interior

Your own bathroom,  Shower, hot and cold water – of course.

And what log cabin would be complete without a wood-burning stove? At night, or in winter, keep warm around the crackling fire.

Don’t get lost !

After the left turn on Bass Lake you go a windy road up for about 14 miles. Make sure you pass the sumit. After that you go down again until you get to ‘Jones Store’ on the left. You pass it and you know you are going the right direction. A mile after Jones Store the road splits and you keep going on the left !!!!! From here on ( about 1.8 miles) there are no major options. keep going until you see our SIGN and right here you turn right into the dirt road. Another mile and you are at FAR MEADOW.
