Dogwood Retreat | Epic Sunset Views

Summary:

Dogwood Retreat is a beautifully renovated 3BR/2BA cabin in Lower Dogwood featuring breathtaking panoramic mountain and sunset views. This cozy modern retreat offers an open living space, life-size game, and a smokeless outdoor fire pit perfect for evening gatherings. Enjoy morning coffee on the deck, golden-hour sunsets, and peaceful forest surroundings just minutes from Shaver Lake, outdoor recreation, and year-round adventure.



The Space:

Dogwood Retreat offers a comfortable two-level layout designed for both privacy and gathering. Upstairs you’ll find three cozy bedrooms and one full bathroom, providing a quiet sleeping area away from the main living space. Downstairs, accessible by a spiral staircase, features a welcoming living room, fully updated kitchen, additional bathroom, laundry area, and pantry for extended stays. The entire cabin has been beautifully renovated and thoughtfully updated to blend modern comfort with mountain charm.

We do not provide propane for the BBQ- please keep this in mind.



Guest Access:

The Neighborhood:

Lower Dogwood is one of Shaver Lake’s most desirable neighborhoods, known for its peaceful mountain setting, elevated views, and convenient access to town and the lake. This area offers a perfect balance of privacy and accessibility, with quiet streets, tall pines, and stunning natural scenery. Guests love Lower Dogwood for its relaxed atmosphere, easy year-round access, and close proximity to outdoor recreation, dining, and shopping.

We went to Shaver Lake last weekend for a snowboarding/family getaway. Let’s start with the host Amanda, she is amazing! We had a couple of questions regarding our booking details, she was extremely helpful and responsive. She did warn us about the road conditions as they just had a major snow storm a couple days prior, but we were prepared.As far as the cabin, we were looking for something to accommodate our family, friends and two small dogs. Upon arrival the cabin was warm, welcoming and we couldn’t have asked for more. It was very clean and spacious with amazing views. The kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms have definitely been remodeled with some modern touches. It is fully equipped with everything you would need.

We had a wonderful time at Dogwood Retreat for a long ski weekend. The home is gorgeous, with amazing views, lovely furnishings, and well- stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Plenty of room for our two families to spread out. Beds were so comfortable, everything was clean and felt brand new. Would highly recommend and definitely hope to stay here again.
