About this house rental
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…

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.

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.

Nice and cozy
House was clean and well stocked. There was lots of snow, which was great. Beds were all comfy. Loved the open floor plan, the game room and loft was awesome. We had a family get together for my moms 60th and there was plenty of room.

Would definitely book again. Recommended
We had a great experience here at this cabin, very spacious, has everything you might need, great cabin if you have kids, full of games and entertainment, great parking space for at least 6 cars, awesome owner, aslnswered all our questions, called a few days before check in to see if we needed anything. The only thing that could be better was maybe a little more lighting in the patio, it was just a bit dark at night. But overall 9/10. Definitely would recommend and book again

Family Labor Day Trip

Large large home for families
Liked the layout of the house & location for our purposes. Property has lots of kitchenware. Never had to bring own linens before in VRBO rental & it was a pain. No discount on cleaning. House really needs deep clean , de clutter & update. BBQ fire was prevented only by quick action!! Very greasy & flames came out under the grill.

This place was awesome.
Check in was easy, the house was beautiful, the game room was perfect for the kids, it had plenty of sleeping space, & the host was great at communicating. There is a drought right now. So we didn't get to enjoy the deck. Because it's surrounded my yellowjackets. My husband got stung the first day. So bring spray or any repellent you have. There is no good broom or a mop to keep the house clean. So we bought a swifter from the store not far from there. Other than that. The drive is beautiful & there are plenty of lakes & creeks near by. We can't wait to go back.

Perfect layout
It was so easy to rent this house. The owner was so nice and easy to communicate with. The layout of the house was perfect for our group, kids played and hung out up stairs in the game room and the adults downstairs or out in the deck. It has an awesome big kitchen for large groups. The house was clean and comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

Cabin
The cabin was wonderful! Very clean and had all the essentials we needed. We all had a great time staying there. It was very stuffy and hot, but once we found the fans everything worked out. Thank you!

Awesome Cabin
The Cabin is extremely well layed out with the 4 bedrooms on main floor a nd one bedroom in loft area. The amenities were great and the games in the loft kept everyone entertained such that we did not even watch the televisions they had. the elevation of the cabin was perfect in that we were high enough to have approximately 3 feet of snow around the cabin during our stay.

Beautiful home and great for all ages
Ben was excellent and accommodating. We had the most fun with a little bit of snow over the weekend and home had a perfect upstairs play area for friends and kids. Pack n plays were already there as well as kid gates as needed. Perfect weekend away! Thank you!

In addition to being a very spacious house, it was very clean. Very well equipped with all you might need from flashlights to firewood air blower. Kitchen is super equipped with all the stuff you might need (even a cooler was available). All the lights and drawers are even labeled to ensure that there are no issues with finding necessary items. The internet worked great as well. Owner (Ben) really cares about guests. He was available within minutes if any questions came up and was very helpful. House plan is perfect for multiple families to share. (4 separate bedrooms on 1st floor is great for family with seniors). On second floor you can place a troop of boy scouts, there is lots of living space and a loft area with many beds.Access to the house is perfect, as the parking is huge and it’s right off Meko (main street, just a few hundred yards, from Dorrington snow removal services).

Fun Family Cabin
We had four families stay in this huge cabin. The adults all had their own room and the kids had the whole upstairs to themselves. There were a ton of things for the kids to do and the cabin had everything we needed for our stay. We would love to come back to stay at this fun cabin in the future. Ben was a great host and he very responsive and understanding.

Great, relaxing stay...
My family needed a break and Ben's cabin provided a nice respite from the craziness of the world. First was space. The cabin is huge and beautiful, so a good place to just kick back. Second was location. There were lots of outdoors activities to head out to, whether it be a walk in the woods, kayaking at many lakes or just swiming.

Great Mountain Cabin
The cabin was perfect for our family 8 adults and 3 preteens. We usually camp, but with family members getting older they prefer a real bed, running water, and electricity. The neighborhood was quieter than a campground too! The furniture in the 2 living spaces was very comfortable. The bedrooms were set up well for individual space and comfortable beds. The upstairs loft and game area was fun for everyone! The kitchen was well stocked for cooking for a larger group. Ben was easy to communicate with and gave clear instructions for accessing the cabin. We also enjoyed the deck and gas grill. We’d love to stay in the cabin with our family again.
4.0
Great floorplan
Great floor plan, nicely balanced with four equal bedrooms and two bathrooms at the first floor, perfect to share by up to four families. Huge loft and fifth bedrooms upstairs, perfect for entertainment and kids to play games. Great location close to Bear Valley. Excellent management and great communication. The cabin is a bit outdated though, the carpet is old and some holes in the ceiling in one bathroom are the cons. Also there's no access to the back patio during winter and there's no grill.
