About the Year-Round Cabins
Meals and amenities for winter stays
Cabins are heated and each has its own private bathroom with shower, microwave, Keurig coffeemaker, and mini-fridge.
Winter cabin stays include bedding (sheets, pillows, blankets), bathroom towels, and linens. Meals are included too, starting with dinner on the day of your arrival and ending with breakfast on the day of your departure.
NOTE: summer stays do not include linens or bedding, so bring your own!
Star Party Weekend, March 22-24, 2024
This is the perfect weekend for astronomy fans. Alex and his family will be joining us for a weekend to learn and enjoy our bright nighttime skies together. On Saturday night, Alex will lead a ‘Star Party’ with his high powered telescope on the Gold Softball Field, where we’ll hope for clear skies to see the Milky Way and beyond.
Alex is one of the world’s most highly cited astronomers, and an elected member of the National Academy of Sciences. He’s not only an extremely popular UC Professor, but also our most popular guest speaker during family camp each summer. He makes a hobby of observing total solar eclipses and this Oski weekend is just a few weeks ahead of the next solar eclipse, so learn more about eclipses this weekend too.

E and F numbered cabins are configured with five units together in a circular formation and a fire pit in the middle. G numbered cabins are set in a row with beautiful forest views along with a fire pit at the end of the row. We provide firewood and s’mores fixings for cozy, warm evening fun.
Each cabin sleeps up to six guests, and includes a queen bed, bunk bed (two twin beds), and two single beds in the loft which are best for kids ages 8 and up. Units E1, F1, G1, and G2 are ADA-compliant.
