My family of five adults and two children stayed in this home. There was more than enough room. This house could easily accommodate twelve in beds, maybe up to seventeen if you sleep on the sectional.
The beds were comfy except the one on the main floor that could use a new mattress or maybe a mattress topper. There was a horrible dip in the middle.
The home has a well stocked kitchen.
It had spices you could use and many appliances. A Keurig, a blender, top of the line washer dryer and a microwave to name a few.
The home was quite large and I could see how the little details could be missed. The gas grill, and oven weren't clean. We couldn't get the blinds downstairs to open. It was truly a man cave.
Our stay was four days three night's. Only only one day was warm enough for us to enjoy the club hose. There we swam, played pickle ball, and enjoyed the lake. There was a nice giant chair for an IG moment. And while we didn't have a fire pit at the house there was several at the club to enjoy.
I had several questions before our stay and the the hostess was very responsive, informative and kind.
Definitely a place we'd return to.
There was a horrible dip in the mddle.

I was very surprised at the driveway. At first I thought we wouldn't make it up the driveway. After 3 tries my son (over 50) managed to get it up to the hairpin curve and then backed up the rest of the way. The driveway was gravel, which was ok, but very bumpy and uneven. I was surprised that nothing was said about it. My son-in-law had rented a 4-wheel drive truck as they brought their bikes, and had no problem.
It would have been appreciated to have a better cooling system for this large area.
The kitchen was well equipped which was appreciated. The ice machine was broken so had to refill trays.
The basement was the coolest, but with no bathroom, only
one person slept down there.
More outdoor seating would have been appreciated.
The other thing I would note for future reference would be that the lighting could have been improved.
To get all the towels washed and dried by 10 AM was difficult.
It was a good location for all different age groups. I would rate it between 3 and 4 stars.

this is the second time my group and I have stayed at this location and it is easily one of the best locations to host a trip, the owners are very quick to reply, There’s a lot to do in the area and the house is very nice and clean, really can't ask for anything better!

Frist off, the property was clean, Ive been to many vacation rental homes but i would have to say this was the cleanest. Second the layout, I loved how the first floor was setup as a game room, my kids spent much of their time in there or outside. We went to the private lake which was in walking distance. They had a little beach which the kids really enjoyed before the weather changed and it just got cold. The only downside to the house is the heating. At night the first floor was really cold we did have to move the kids upstairs because of that, but they had plenty of space upstairs to accommodate them. All in all, I would definitely be back.

Really enjoyed my stay at this beautiful cabin. Definitely will be coming back again, hopefully soon. Kitchen was fully equipped, loved that!
We woke up to the cabin surrounded by snow. Seeing the snowfall from your window is priceless. My only complain would be having to wash and dry all towels used. Im not necessarily complaining, its just who wants to do laundry while being on vacation. Overall, its totally worth it and would do it again. The host Kristins was very communicative and answered all my questions.

We had 2 families totaling 11 people in our stay (adults and children). This house had plenty of room for all of us plus more! Lots of places to hang out at.
It's a beautiful home, and super clean. The pictures don't do it justice! The kids loved the game room! The carpets were brand new and super plush! You just have to remove your shoes upon entering the house.
It's in a great location. The snow had melted when we went, but we only had to drive about 10 minutes away to find a nice place for snow play. We also went to Calaveras Big Trees upon checking out which was only about 5 minutes away.
We would definitely book this again!

We used the cabin as a home base for a scout troop who was learning how to camp in the snow at Lake Alpine. The cabin was very spacious and accommodated our crew of 16. Gravel driveway was a bit technical for a two wheel drive minivan due. No problems for the SUVs. Very accommodating host.
5.0
Love this place it is our 5th time renting here. So clean, so much room, every convenience. Kitchen is so well stocked for cooking. Beds so comfy. It actually snowed at the cabin while we were there, so made everything that more special. Thank you, to our hosts. You provide an amazing vacation and memories for our fam!!

Very comfortable cabin. 3 stories. Plenty of room for activities and relaxation. Pre stocked with firewood and propane grill.

The house was a great place for our two families to stay (4 adults, 4 kids ages 3-9) and it would easily accommodate an even bigger group! We loved cozying up around the fireplace, having tons of space for kids to play and adults to chat, we loved being able to all fit around the dining room table, the kitchen had everything we needed, and outside had lots of great space for snow play right out the front door! We also enjoyed being less than 10 min from Big Trees state park. The host was easy to communicate with and check in/out were clear and simple. Definitely recommend for groups and hope to stay there again!

The only thing was the carpets. You have to take off your shoes and it was a hassle. It was raining when we went. Other than that it was great!

We loved our extended weekend here! Overall, the space is clean, well appointed with what you need for a large group weekend--kitchen equipment, large fridge, multiple bathrooms with generally abundant hot water, sheets and towels, extra pillows, washer/dryer, etc. We had more than enough sleeping space and hangout space. There is no cell signal, but there is Wi-Fi Internet so keeping in touch with necessary folks is possible while still disconnecting from the day to day life things and being able to focus on connecting and having fun with those on the trip... Including a fun, reusable water balloon fight on the deck and an afternoon trip to the local lake to hang out.
The only thing I will say for future guests is be careful with the driveway! There are two entrances and one had a very sharp turn that could be hard to navigate if you're not used to driving on gravel, have a very light car, or don't have AWD/4WD. Once we knew, it was easy to navigate to the other entrance on the driveway.
We look forward to renting this place again the future!

We love the location and size of this house! This is our second time renting this house and we had a great time. Very clean with a lot of sleeping space. Can't wait to rent again for our next family vacation

We were very pleased with the location and overall experience. There was plenty of room for all 16 of us,
We loved the ease of walking to the lake and relaxing, swimming, paddle boarding. The amenities were nice for all ages. The kids were entertained as well as the adults.

the place was beautiful ! we enjoyed the trees.

We had a great time and the property met all our needs. The only drawback was the parking. The driveway was at such a steep incline that some of our cars couldn’t make it. You need a 4-wheel drive. Washing the towels was a new one! The new carpet was lovely and the sleeping arrangements versatile enough to accommodate our several families.
5.0
Property was very well maintained, clean and was a prime spot for any activities that our group wanted to do.

We recently stayed here during the month of March! This cabin is more like a beautiful home! There was 17 of us and the property accommodated us all without issue, plenty of space! Plenty of parking, beautiful views, I will definitely book this property in the future for our girls trips! The owner answered my messages in a timely manner! Don’t hesitate to book, you will absolutely love it! Caution, the phone service is pretty much dead in the area. Obviously, this is out of everyones control. The cabin does have excellent internet, I was able to steam my tablet, message, and utilized Wi-Fi calling. It wasn’t an issue at all for any of us, and my party all had different cellular carriers. I can’t compliment this property and our experience enough! Thank you!

This is a great family friendly cabin with tons of space. Very clean with an updated kitchen. Everything we needed to enjoy our stay in Arnold.

A nice property with plenty of space for our two families up in the mountains for a week of skiing. A warm fire made the cabin nice and toasty during the recent snowstorm.

First, let me start by saying thank you for allowing us to rent your house/cabin. My family had an amazing vacation. Beautiful area very quiet. Lots of room inside and out. I don’t know how you can’t give this place a 5 star and not want to come back. Felt like our time went by so fast. Very clean relaxing. Highly recommend and will be returning. Check in / out was easy.
5.0
This property is everything it said it would be. Kristina was easy to communicate with and always answered questions in a timely manner. Our whole family enjoy it. More than enough space for us. The only downside was the downstairs area because it smelled like burnt firewood, but kids still loved it and hung out there the whole time. The family before us did not clean out the fireplace, which was fine. Overall, we would love to stay there again! Thank you Kristina for sharing your home with us.

The owners were more than accommodating when we got snowed in and had to stay late so we could get plowed out. This was our second year staying with them.

This cabin was a great fit for our family. Upon arrival, the space was clean, inviting and well maintained. Our family felt comfortable in the many different spaces the cabin provided. The owners were quick to respond when we had a question and the guidebook they provided was full of great resources and clean directions.
Our family would love to go back!

Such a beautiful stay for my group and I. Owner was on top with communication. Entering was a breeze. Great place for many people, a lot of rooms to sleep as well as space.
Only trouble was getting some cars up the driveway 4w drive will help, however owner communicated allowing us to park off to the side which worked out well for everyone! Would stay again!!!

It’s a beautiful property. Beware of steep gravel driveway! I rented a Dodge Charger that barely made it up. WiFi is shotty and only worked in certain areas of the home. I lost a 10 year friendship to this whole experience and absolutely baffled how so much could go wrong in such a magical forest.

We were 3 families with young kids visiting over a hot weekend. The kids took over and loved the downstairs game room and the adults took the bedrooms, plenty of beds for all. It was very hot in the area while we were there so the A/C took half a day or so to really do the job, but the house was comfortable after that. The lake is a very short walk from the house and was loads of fun. Wrap around porch and ping pong table were great. The house itself is well maintained, some outdated decor but very comfortable, well-stocked kitchen, nice appliances. Overall recommend this for families vacationing together.

Amazing and clean house fully stocked with any and all necessities. Located in beautiful neighborhood with many things to do in surrounding area. Loved the stay however parking was difficult without a 4x4 because of a steep driveway but otherwise everything was wonderful.
5.0
We loved the cabin.
We had a great weekend. It was comfortable and clean. My favorite was the rap around porch. The property was located close to White pine lake and shopping. I’m hoping to go back in the winter for a ski trip. Can’t wait. It was so much fun.
