The house is very cozy and the deck is a wonderful place to have breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Relax on the deck with a drink and your loved ones while watching the pine trees grow, or just sit in one of the canvas sky chairs with your legs up. relaxing, reading a book or just taking a nap. You will feel like you are floating on a cloud. The large overhang on the deck will keep the sun from your eyes and somehow makes the temperature seem to be just right. The living , dining and kitchen area are open and lead to the upper huge deck. It is a great place to entertain your friends and family.

Enjoy your day at Lake Alpine fishing or in the winter months skiing or sledding at Bear Valley. The area hosts numerous adventures, including The Big Trees National Forest, Bear Valley music festival, Ironstone Wineries and its series of concerts throughout the summer, the quaint town of Murphy's with its history, small shops and local wine tasting. Drop down into the earth into one of the moaning caves or for the brave go zip lining through the canyon. Visit the town of Columbia, an old gold mining town where your children can pan for gold, check out the old blacksmith or just ride into history on a stagecoach.
Angels camp has its annual Frog Jump extravaganza while Murphys has its annual St. Patty's Day parade and Arnold has a real hometown fourth of July parade down main street followed by a bar-b-que in the park.
Arnold is the perfect 'base camp' for you and your family to enjoy the entire area and all of it offerings.
I suggest you get the inexpensive travel insurance upon booking in case of some unforseen last minute need to cancel.

We had to clean the bathtubs. There was mold on bath mats and in the tubs. The blinds wouldn’t shut. Place was great except for the bathtubs!! Great loction.
This was our 4th visit to the mountain home and we will be back! The home is in a perfect location. Close to hiking trails, lakes and Big Trees Market? The owners are great to work with. All in all a very easy and relaxing vacation. Lisa, Alan and Bella the herding dog
Very well stocked VRBO with everything you would need for an enjoyable stay!
It's a lovely house with a lot of amenities. The neighborhood is quiet especially during the weekdays and the front deck is a nice spot to do yoga, barbeque, or just relax. The spa is super nice after a day of hiking! We will return!
Stayed here with my family. The large deck was awesome as we have a toddler. Close to everything. Will stay here again.
We had a wonderful time. The cabin was warm and cozy and plenty of space for our family. Loved the downstairs with games for the kids!
Would rent again when coming back to the area!
Lovely home, better equipped that we expected! Eileen and Edgar were great about answering questions and communicating!
My husband and I along with our Maltese had a wonderful stay at your Arnold cabin. We loved being out in the trees with the nice deck space. The bed was so comfortable and we watched several DVD movies that you had available. We stayed busy during the days by going to Murphy's for wine tasting and the restaurants. The Calaveras Big Tree hike was very enjoyable along with the Arnold Rim Trail. Camp Connell was nice for a concert in the beer garden and lots to explore in the area. We had a wonderful time.
This was our third stay in this great home. Can’t wait to come back!
The house was very nice. The decks were in top shape and the kitchen spacious. Really enjoyed are stay. The only slight would be the beds could have been a bit more comfortable but in fairness I find this true even in nicer hotels at times
Great location with easy access to everything. Clean with everything you might need for your stay in your home away from home. Good communication throughout from property manager. Driveway is steep and narrow. Lots of stairs to main floor. They’re not kidding in the description.
Our stay was so relaxing. We soaked in the hot tub and sat in the hammock chairs for hours, just talking and drinking local wine from the wineries down the road. Peaceful and quiet, most times only heard the wind in the trees and the birds chirping. Will for sure be coming back again
The house was so clean and there were so many little touches throughout that made it so welcoming! It has everything you need in the kitchen and instructions are really clear about check in/out, care of items and troubleshooting problems. Clear, but also very reasonable. We really enjoyed the tranquility of the property. It was great to just eat dinner out in the deck and enjoy the quiet with good company. Inside was everything you could possibly want to feel like a home away from home! Thank you for hosting us!
Good amenities, poor communication and customer service. Ants, there were so many ants crawling around the kitchen sink and dishwasher! When we started the dishwasher (as it is required to wash and put dishes away to stay here) SO MANY ANTS starting crawling out! We notified the host and they just told us to spray insecticide, long story short, it didn't work. We attempted to ask for our cleaning fee back and received NO further communication. This is very unprofessional. They did not seem to care about our comfort. However, the amenities which included the downstairs living area with pool table, giant scrabble board, and arcade were great! Hot tub was nice and warm! Driveway is steep but expected.
