Great location at least for hiking in the area and at Calaveras Big Trees State Park. So grateful for being a dog friendly home. Convenient to Arnold for huge selection of organic groceries.

Perfect cabin
This is our fourth time to the area, staying in various cabins. We all agree that this one is our favorite! We wanted a place where we wouldn’t have to drive to go sledding and this place delivered. Snow literally right outside the door. Kids played in the snow on the deck and went sledding right outside the door. Very clean place with the perfect mix of modern home and cozy cabin.

Great cozy place!
We loved our stay! We had a fire in the fireplace, walked around the neighborhood, and even sledded right in the yard! The kitchen was well-equipped with everything we needed, wifi was fast and the smart TV was great. The space was perfect for a romantic getaway and our dog loved it! Nice and secluded, very close to Arnold and all skiing/snow park activities. Will DEFINITELY be back!
