Beautiful family friendly property!

My family (including my two toddlers and in laws) had a great time at this home! The space was perfect with a large kitchen and living space and was so aesthetically pleasing too. Very family friendly (with lots of board games for kids as well as a fun outside space with a little playhouse and rock climbing on the trees!). Close to the main road and 5 minutes from the grocery store which was convenient when we forgot a couple things for dinner. Highly recommend this home! we will for sure be back.

Great kitchen

Fine for a short stay, but the odd layout wasn’t my cup of tea.

Beautiful cabin away from home

The cabin was absolutely beautiful and very clean. It sits in a quiet neighborhood near a lake resort. Kaylie was very responsive. The studio above the garage was a huge plus. We will definitely be staying here again.

Great place for couples

We had tickets to see Midland and Chris Isaak at Ironstone in Murphy’s. This little place was perfect. Clean, comfortable and modern. Will be looking to stay here on future trips.

About the host

Hosted by Kaylie Milliken

We (Kaylie and Eric) are Bay Area residents, but Arnold has become our home away from home. Kaylie grew up in nearby Sonora and still has many family members there. She has a plethora of information if you are looking for fun, unique things to do! We love taking our two kids (ages 9 and 6) to the mountains all times of year: skiing/snowboarding in the winter, hiking and biking in the spring/summer/fall, playing at the lakes allll summer long, catching lizards (Kaylie doesn't love this so much but the kids do!), fishing, exploring... the kids love building "fairy houses" on the property to see if any surprise visitors show up and leave special rocks or shells behind.

Why they chose this property

From the moment we saw this cabin, we were hooked! Arnold and the surrounding area captured our hearts from the moment we first drove up.

We wanted to buy a cabin but weren't sure where. We explored South Lake Tahoe, Truckee, other places north of Sacramento, and at the last minute, decided to check out Arnold. Having grown up in Sonora, Kaylie was more keen to stay away and explore new areas. This was the very first cabin we saw in Arnold, and the next ten cabins we looked at didn't hold a candle to this! We love everything about it - a new build (which means no maintenance issues), having Kaylie's family nearby, a short drive to Murphys (which holds great wine tasting and restaurants!), a convenient drive to Bear Valley, walking distance to a lake, living amongst the red woods, and waking up to the smell of pine trees wafting all around.

We love hosting and are thrilled that we have the space to have guests up with us at any time, thanks to the separate studio space. When we have guests with kids, the kids all like to pile into the rompus room for a big sleepover!

What makes this property unique

This cabin was the contractor's own home. He was a masterful woodworker, and you see his work throughout the property. Did you notice the pine trees carved into the wood railings? You can hop on your bike and ride straight from the house to a number of trails.
