A very “chill” place in a beautiful location
Came here for three days. Spent zero time reviewing emails. Feels like a million miles away from civilization, even though everything you could need is literally five minutes away. Very good restaurants are in the adjacent shopping center. Drive up the hill to see incredible scenery. Beautiful trees. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an escape from work. Host is very responsive.

What a wonderful relaxing and fun filled weekend
I can't say enough wonderful things about our stay at Scott's cabin. The cabin was clean and very comfy, the location is terrific and near everything including a great grocery store. My husband and I along with our (3) kids and the dog had the best time at the cabin and playing in the snow. The kitchen has everything you need, and we were able to have all our meals there. We definitely will come again next year! Thanks, Scott, for the most enjoyable weekend!!.

Winter weekend for 3 generation family
Interior wood walls, wide windows, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable furnishings and plenty of combined space for cooking, dining and socializing well suited for all ages. Lots of board games and a small, eclectic library. Nearby is a market with quality produce and fresh foods. Our group includes a couple, grandparents, 2 youngsters and a playful dog; all were pleased with the cabin, the sequoias and snowy meadows. The owner is a flexible and good humored. We hope to return.

Great stay for visiting Big Trees and Bear Valley
The property location was really nice. It was close to the highway in Arnold. Since we visited in winter, Big Trees State Park, the Bear Valley ski and Lake Alpine snow park were the primary attractions for us. We found the house very clean. The kitchen was well stocked. There were lots of games in the cabinet for kids. The instructions were clear and several things were labeled to help. We didn't have phone reception near the house and it made the check-in process a bit challenging. I recommend having the check-in instructions ready before heading to the property.

Believe all the reviews!
My family & I spent Thanksgiving weekend at the cabin and had a wonderful time. It’s in a great location, close to the stores & restaurants. The kitchen was stocked with almost everything we needed (only had to bring a big roaster pan, a crockpot & a hand mixer from home). They provided lots of necessities, such as garbage bags, paper towels, hand soap, toilet paper, etc. They even provided the distilled water for the coffee pot & coffee grounds. The bedrooms were all good sized & the living area is spacious. There’s an entire cabinet with games. The owner was very friendly & quick to respond to questions. The only negative was one of the mattresses was an older sleep number & pretty uncomfortable until we softened it a lot. This cabin is a little dated, but still really nice & clean. We loved it!

Spacious Arnold House
We had a wonderful stay at the Arnold house. It is very spacious and very well-stocked. The location offers easy access to the local hikes and restaurants. The house stayed cool despite the 80-90 degree temperatures outside. There was some confusion about the lockbox to use for entry. The owner was totally responsive to our calls and had the handyman at the house in good time. I would suggest clearer instructions about which porch door to use and the quirks of using the lockbox. We would definitely visit again. Thanks for a great stay.

Nice house in great location
Very nice house in convenient location. Close to Calaveras big trees and other outdoor activities. Clean and comfortable home, with fully stocked kitchen (ex. pots, pans, dishes, silverware). Enjoyed sitting on the deck with nice view of the meadow across the way. Highly recommend. We are definitely interested in coming back (maybe this time to explore the area in the winter).

Relaxing getaway at a well appointed cabin. Great location, close to the market and easy to get to from Hwy 4. The cabin had everything we needed for a long weekend. Communication with Scott was quick and responsive. The highlight was seeing a mom bear with three cubs in the back yard. We would stay here again.

The hosts were easy to contact and they communicated well. The cabin was lovely and they also have books and photos that show the cabin's history, I found that to be really nice. The kitchen had everything we needed. Compared to other rentals around the area, this was way cheaper but still met our expectations. There's a supermarket literally down the street and sadly, our tire got a nail and needed replacement. Luckily for us, there's a tire shop 4 minutes away and we were able to get a used tire to get us home safely.
