Pinecone Chalet

Enjoy your vacation or weekend outing at the Pinecone Chalet. Nestled among towering red and white pines, this very private and spacious, one-room chalet with upstairs sleeping area on Pinecone Bay and the York River is the ideal retreat for those wishing to escape the hectic pace of city life. Whether relaxing on the screened porch to the sound of spring peepers and wind in the trees, lounging around the fire-pit, hiking or cross-country skiing the surrounding forest trails, or taking to the water with either kayak or canoe, our Pinecone Chalet is the perfect jumping off point for exploration of the York River and Conroys Marsh wetlands.
