Nice mountain cabin
We had a fantastic time in this large but cozy cabin. There was plenty of wood for the fireplace, Wi-Fi was clear and never went out, and while there were enough trees and quiet to feel like we were “getting away”, Arnold offered plenty of stores for the things we forgot to bring. Definitely would stay again.

Friends and family had a nice time. It was very close to the Calaveras Big Tree State Park. Spacious enough for 10 people. The property managers were very prompt with communication. Thanks again.

Overall, a great stay
Loved our stay and would recommend it to anyone looking for a proper cabin in the forest. Stayed in the summer and it was hot, and looking forward to possibly coming back during snow season. Note that pillows weren't provided due to covid. I didn't find out until an email came after I had already left home and was staying at a different property. We had to buy 8 pillows and stuff them into our already packed cars. Minor thing but worth planning ahead for.

Perfect for a large group
The house was the perfect jump off place for daily fun and adventure. We had 10 people (9 adults and 1 child) and the house fit us very well with plenty of common space for us to all be together or split up when needed. The house was pretty clean though the down stairs shower could use a deep clean especially the shower mat. Over all, perfect setting for our family vacation! Management were very sweet and we felt well taken care of.

Great House and Great Getaway
This cabin really has everything you need for a great getaway. Very spacious, very nice, clean and comfortable beds and the kitchen was equipped with dining supplies. Had everything we needed. Communication with the owner was easy and the internet connection was fast. The property was exactly as described, location was close to Lakes and Calaveras State Park and the neighborhood is quite. We had a great time and looking forward to returning again.
