Coffee maker didn’t pump water. My main concern was being charged high fees by Expedia and VRBO in addition to payment of advertised cost. Seems like too many fees. A refund seems in order for one of these. As it stands I will not use Expedia again due to these hidden charges.
Trash in bathroom and kitchen full not taken out before arrival
We enjoyed our stay in this house and the getaway to Arnold and Bear Valley. House had everything we needed and including our dog was wonderful.
Exactly as advertised. Highly recommend.
We visited Arnold to remember our youngest son and brother, gone two years now. 12/05/21. We had many family memories in that area. The home was a delight. It was comfortable and comforting. We loved everything about it- From the modern conveniences to the rustic decor and furnishings. The home is fully stocked with everything we needed, and more. We loved the high ceilings and large windows that brought in sunshine and views of the peaceful tree lined meadow. We didn’t get to use the wonderful patio or yard due to rainy and damp weather. The central location was perfect for running to the market, dining out, and traveling to Columbia and Calaveras State Parks, Bear Valley and the snow. Unfortunately, the road was closed before Alpine Lake. We will definitely return on an annual basis to this little bit of heaven in the Sierras.
Nice and open. It is defintely dated but fits the mountain cabin experience.
Great location. Close enough to restaurant's and easy to find
The cabin was beautiful, spacious and clean! The setting was amazing! It was the best vacation stay we ever had!
This home had a great amount of space and was very clean. There is also a very nice fenced in backyard that isn't shown in the photos where you can let your dog out without worry. There is a larger meadow past the backyard that is amazing for your dog to run around at. Really well shaded most of the day. The air conditioning is incredibly strong. Came during a heat wave and it kept up easily with the 95 degree weather. There is a large grocery story a half mile away that is well stocked with anything you will need. The home itself had a full stocked kitchen. Overall, a great stay! Would happily come again.
Spacious and very comfortable! We make it a tradition to stay at this home every time we come up to Arnold. The kids love all the VHS and talk about watching movies like the “old days.” I especially like all the nice neighbors very friendly folks.
Only complaint we would have has nothing to do with the property. It was nice and located by a meadow. But we did have a delay from getting into the house due to late cleaning. About 2 hours. We were not offered in compensation. When you are only stay the weekend that’s a long time.
We are amazed with the cleanliness of the place, very homey. It’s our first time to stay here, it is truly a comfortable stay. My kids love the place, very close to Splicer Park. Everything you’ll need in the kitchen is there. Pots/pans/kettle/utensils/etc… Thank you!
This cabin is in the perfect location for easy access to town amenities while still feeling like you're away from it all. It was a short drive to White Pines Lake and Calaveras Big Trees and was also an easy drive to Columbia State Park . My family of 7, plus our 2 small dogs, had plenty of space for all our needs. The kids loved the small pool table and access to the meadow. Some of the pots and pans were put away dirty, probably by the previous renters, so that was a little frustrating, but not a big deal. We just washed them before cooking. Overall, it was a great place and we'd happily return again on our next visit.
