About the host
Hosted by Gary
My wife and I live in South San Jose and absolutely love to get out of the bay area to the trees and rivers that adorn the Arnold and Dorrington area. We love hosting other families to enjoy the excellent mountain views and towering tree lines surrounding the cabin.
I am an avid fisherman so I took this opportunity to decorate the master bedroom in a fly-fishing theme. My wife decorated the lower bedroom to appeal to a softer demeanor. Both rooms are pleasant and comfortable.
Why they chose this property
This neighborhood is situated at the top of the mountain providing 50-mile views of the Stanislaus national forest and neighboring snow-covered mountains. This special property is a perimeter lot where it borders the national forest, creating unobstructed views with few neighbors. The other cabins are far enough away to give you a feeling of privacy and solitude.
What makes this property unique
Most driveways in the area are steep and typically one-way, making it difficult and sometimes dangerous navigating it in the snow or rain. Our pull-thru driveway is flat and pulls straight up to the front door. This means you pull in from one direction and drive forward out to the main road. You'll be thankful that there is no need to back-up down a steep driveway. You'll also be glad that there are no stairs to climb as you unload your car and carry your luggage into the home. The street has little to no traffic. This makes it safe for children and adults, alike.
Special care was take designing this home, ensuring a great number of windows to let in natural light and the beautiful surroundings. A most noteworthy design element is the 6' x 4' stained-glass window in the master bedroom, designed by a local artist depicting the Stanislaus River and forest. It is a one-of-a-kind work of art.
The sloped backyard is perfect for sledding. Every snow season, families staying at the cabin have commented that they prefer to build a sled run going down the backyard slope rather than pile in the car and head up Hwy-4 where the crowds gather to play in the snow. From the cabin, you can sit by the fire and drink coffee while watching the kids play in the snow from the living room window. There is a master bedroom balcony that provides even better views.
The loft has the very popular shuffleboard table, a game table for playing board games or coloring or putting together puzzles, and a plethora of board games.
Downstairs:
We added a new 50" LG Smart TVand DVD player for gathering the family together to view movies and eat popcorn. There are over 60 movies to choose from (Disney movies, Action & Adventue, Kid's Animation movies, Romance & Chick flicks, and Comedy movies).
In 2024, we added an outdoor fire pit for roasting marshmallows with the kids and grandparents.
Or, relax in the jetted-tub located in the master bathroom.
