Arnold, California
Located in the Big Trees area, this Arnold/Dorrington house comfortably sleeps 14. There are 4 downstairs bedrooms, all with a queen bed (rooms are all equal sized) plus a 5th bedroom in the loft with 2 queen beds and 2 twins (bunk bed style). Stocked with fun games (upstairs loft area with Ping Pong, Air Hockey and Foosball) for the kids and a large common area downstairs, you can host a large group without feeling cramped. In the winter, this is the closest stop to Bear Valley and in the summer, you're minutes away from the Stanislaus River and Big Trees State Park and a short drive to Murphys (wine tasting, caving and more). We have a welcome book at the cabin highlighting activities in the area, as well as some fun ideas for in the cabin. Hope you enjoy your stay! (For families, this house has been 'baby-proofed' with safety gates, high chairs (x2), toys and pack-n-play (x2) available).
We typically require at least a 3-night minimum but feel free to inquire about 2-nights and we'll let you know.
Cabin rentals DO NOT include linens so renters are responsible for bringing their own sheets, towels and pillowcases. (Blankets and Pillows provided at the cabin). If you would like to rent linens ($18/bed), we can connect you to the local service in the area.
Our house does not have A/C but it's rarely needed. The cabin stays very cool during the day and evenings in Dorrington cool down even in the summer
Lastly, we get a lot of inquiries from people wanting to go to Yosemite. While we're very close to many outdoor adventures in Calaveras County, it's about a 3-hour drive to Yosemite Valley as you have to go back out to the central valley to get there.
We had a wonderful stay. The house was very roomy and well stocked. The house was clean. They have a fireplace with plenty of wood to keep you warm.They also have a house heater. They are located close to restaurants stores and activities. If you want to stay in they have plenty of games and pingpong and air hockey and foosball tables. The house is kid friendly and has safety gates and plenty of kid toys. The house is right off the main highway. We all fit really comfortably in the large house. The owner was very attentive to our needs and quick response was appreciated. I will be returning soon. This is our second stay…
Spacious mountain cabin. Plenty of room. We went to Calaveras Big tree and also to Alpine Lake! Everything we needed was there!
This is one of our favorite cabins to stay at. The listing was spot on, and the owner went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. The bed situation and layout made this perfect for our large family. We had nine adults and a lot of kids, and this was more than enough room. Will definitely rebook this cabin for future trips.
The whole family had a wonderful stay at the cabin. It was very roomy. The owner was very attentive. They had many board games and toys. They had a ping pong table and a fools game table upstairs. The upstairs had a loft with roomy couches and a large room with lots of twin and double beds. This worked out great for us because of the kids could stay upstairs and we could stay downstairs. We will definitely be back.
Pros: The cabin is spacious enough to hold big group. Lot of things stocked in the pantry Lots of games, toys and entertainment for every age group. Cons: Kitchen and appliances are old and outdated but everything works perfectly fine. Brining your own towel and linen was little bit of an inconvenience.
Wonderful family home. Lots of things for kids. Central location between Big Trees and Alpine Lake
We would rent this property again for our family reunion. It had a large common area, large eating area, fully equipped kitchen with lots of counter space, and nice large deck for summer use. It was very well laid out with equal sized queen bedrooms downstairs and additional beds upstairs. The bathrooms were small but functional. It showed its age (not recently remodeled) but worked great for us. Next time we'll bring a couple extra large cooking pots. The owner, Ben, provided very detailed and helpful instructions and info about the house and area.
The floor plan of the house allows a fair sized group to cook, eat, play games and relax and never feel crowded. The house was clean, kitchen well stocked. Would suggest a completely empty kitchen cabinet for food storage. Loved the prep space in kitchen. Lots of counter space allows several people to cook together. Would rent again.
The house was super well equipped and plenty of room for a large family.
Ben’s cabin is super comfy and very spacious, and he was amazing to work with. We were two families with teens traveling together, and there was plenty of space and fun things to do for all. We would definitely stay here again!
