What a journey this had been! After 4 wonderful, scary, hard, fulfilling, educational years we are sad to announce that we have sold the Knotty Retreat. This cabin was our first Airbnb that started our journey of vacation rentals and offering a unique experience for guests.
Currently, we have two retreats in the area and look forward to hosting all of you at our other retreats in Pinecrest and Twain Harte. We welcome you to follow the Sweet Retreat and Woodsy Retreat vacation rental pages for updates, specials and information on the cabins.
We are so excited for out next chapter and adventure! Stay tuned...

Just because we haven’t had a good snow storm, doesn’t mean there is no snow to play with! Come visit us ❤️
It’s hard to believe that last year in February we had one of the biggest snowfall in recorded history, we were digging out, and it was difficult for everyone to even try to make it up!
Well, we don’t have as much natural snowfall this season -
But rest assured, we have TONS of SNOW!!
(Check out the video)
So don’t panic if you don’t see a lot of snow on the drive up, once you arrive at Leland Snowplay it’s “GAME ON!”
The roads are perfect, the weather is warm, so let’s have some Snowplay/tubing fun!!
Hope to see you this weekend!
Nothing better than being at the cabin cuddled up by a warm toasty fire & a nice glass of wine 🌲🙋🏼♀️♥️ ##coldsprings #pinecrest #dodgeridge #cabin #cabinlove #woodburningstove #airbnbsuperhost #airbnb #retreat

THE KNOTTY RETREAT IS LOOKING FOR A NEW OWNER TO LOVE & CARE FOR HER!!
It was a very hard & sad decision to put The Knotty Retreat on the market. Loving memories have been created in this cabin & has been enjoyed by many. The cabin has been a successful short term rental for 3 years. We are honored that we were able to learn everything we know about vacation homes through this first property.
If you have ever thought about owning a second home or investment property the Knotty Retreat is calling your name.

SNOWPLAY DATES SET FOR THE SEASON
As of yesterday, Autumn is officially here. Last week we started to see some rapid changes in the weather, with some light snow falling just a few thousand feet above us. The winter season hasn't arrived just yet, but there is no time like the present to start planning your vacation day at Leland Snowplay!
The dates listed here and on our website at snowplay.com are subject to the weather and snow conditions; as long as we have the powder on the ground to safely operate, these will be our dates of operation. We are typically open six days a week (closed Wednesdays), but open seven days a week through the holidays.
We look forward to seeing 40,000 to 50,000 smiling faces on the hill this season... just not all at once, please. As you can see on our calendar, we continue to maintain separate weekend/holiday versus reduced midweek pricing. We encourage everyone to plan their visit when you can take advantage of our lower prices pricing, as well as the much smaller crowds. The number one complaint we received (especially to start the season) is the crowds a wildly popular destination like Leland Snowplay receives on weekends and holidays. It CAN't be helped, and we HATE having to turn people away on those rare VERY busy days. Hence, the reduced pricing incentive. Please take advantage of it!
We hope to kick off the season in the next 8 to 10 weeks (weather permitting) and can't wait to see each and every one of you on the hill this season!
Happy Labor Day Friends!!
