Great for two families. Kitchen well equipped but small. Some dishes and utensils needed cleaning, it appeared they had not been cleaned well before being put into the dishwasher. Be prepared to walk up many stairs to front door Collect kindling before trying to start fire in the fire box.

This was a perfect getaway for a hot weekend in CA. Don’t worry about no Central AC in the house, all the fans and the portable AC kept it very comfortable inside. Access to the community pool was a huge perk. Also, place is centrally located to all the lakes and hikes in the area. We had one minor hiccup and the owners resolved it immediately. Super responsive and thoughtful Owners is definitely in the “pros” column for this property. Looking forward to another stay in the near future. Thanks Millingtons for letting us enjoy this great property!

Very peaceful country home! Excellent location. Well equipped with everything that you would want! Beautiful large deck.

Perfect set up for 2 families. Access to the BTV Rec center and the state park is much appreciated.

I stayed with my kids and my parents. I didn't realize how many steps there were, my parents had a lot of trouble with the outer steps. Thankfully there were bedrooms downstairs! The fact that we went in the summer and there wasn't AC or enough fans were a problem. My mom is very sensitive to heat and we all had trouble sleeping. Also there were a lot of raised nails on the deck so we had to make sure our shoes were on as we walked on the deck. We loved all the games and enjoyed family time.

This was the second time staying at this property! Once again we were so very happy with it! Super clean! Has everything you could want in a mountain retreat! We wanted a weekend in the mountains to relax and that is what we got! The owners are great at communicating and supply the cabin with everything you could need! May be a yearly thing!

Great place and wonderful host!

We had a fantastic stay in this sparkling clean and amenity filled house. We particularly enjoyed the fire pit, the soft bedding, and the lovely wrap-around deck. Rick was responsive and helpful. Check in and out was a breeze, thanks to the thoughtfully thorough instructions. The location was conveniently close to nearby state parks, and just a short drive to Bear Valley. We would definitely stay here again!

Really loved the house and location. Will be back!

We had a wonderful time! The property is fully equipped with everything you need for your stay. There are plenty of board games for family fun. Great location! We will definitely go back again.

Love the property

Really amazing cabin and sledding right off the property was a huge plus with the kids!

Ended up getting stuck due to the snow and the hosts were super helpful and understanding. Cabin was everything we needed for our family Christmas - they even decorated the house for us and had sleds for us to use in the snow. Highly recommend!

Second time at this property. This time brought some cousins and everyone had a wonderful time. Quiet and secluded. We love this house.

Loved all the decks around the home and ability to open doors to make most of breeze. Quiet and relaxing. Nice to have bedrooms on both floors and kitchen had everything we need.

Enjoyed our quiet stay. Easy check in process and plenty of room. Kitchen is a little small but workable. A few issues, no toilet paper refills and no kitchen sponge. It was also very hard to get the AC to work consistently. It was very hot and the nest thermostat kept overriding the preferred temperatures. Would consider again if these minor issues were fixed.

Stayed here for three nights in the summer, beautiful cabin and wrap around deck. Kitchen was well stocked fir standard cooking pots/pans/gas bbq. Great kid room set-up with multiple beds. Would gladly stay again.

We had a wonderful 4th of July in the Redwood Retreat! Our hosts were extreemly helpful and responsive to my questions. The cabin is laid out in a manner that is condusive to several couples staying here. All of the furniture is comfortable and perfect for watching your favorite shows or sports. However, most of all, we loved the decks and outdoor area which certainly increases the floor space during the summertime! Without question, I would rent this cabin again.

This place exceeded our expectations. The setting is perfect, close to Stanislaus forest/river and Alpine Lake. The home was spacious and clean; beds were very comfortable and showers and kitchen had all we needed. We enjoyed the large decks under the trees, grilling food with a glass of wine after a day of exploring. Ricky was communicative and the checkin/checkout process was well smooth and easy. Our group of 5 had a fabulous time. Highly recommended!

This house is exactly how it looks in the pictures. It had everything we needed and more. There was plenty of wood to keep us warm and cozy while watching tv. Our kids were kept entertained with games in the loft and in the bedroom with bunk beds there was a gaming station. The loft was perfect for the kids to watch tv and hang out. There is a s’mores kit and the kids loved making them over the campfire.The beds were very, very comfortable. Plenty of towels were supplied as well cooking wear. They had everything this family of 6 plus 2 family friends needed for the weekend.There is a general store about 4 miles away down the road they are very friendly and have some good fresh to order pretzels. If you need other groceries there is a grocery store about 15 mins away. The owners communicated in a timely manner and are very friendly as well. Our daughter picked this place to celebrate her 13th birthday and I’m sure glad she did. We will definitely be staying here again!

We visited this cabin as a quiet start to our Spring Break. Beautiful and quiet location. The cabin had everything you could need plus more. It was very clean and inviting! Close access to snow, views, the river, and Calaveras Big Trees (which we took advantage of with the guest pass they leave in the cabin). We will definitely visit again!

This was a fantastic cabin- very clean and well appointed, comfortable and location was perfect! The owner was very communicative, easy to reach, and great to work with. We were a group of 6 adults and a 6 year old and the cabin was big enough for everyone to have space as well as have group meals and time together. The firepit was perfect and the deck and surrounding woods were peaceful. The other houses are present but not too close, and it was quiet. We definitely loved this cabin- great location for skiing at Bear Valley, visiting Calaveras Big Trees, and tromping around in the woods.

The owner Ricky communication was great! He provided great detail instructions from checking in process to departing procedures. The cabin was just like the description, the kids had a great time playing with the snow right on the balcony and sliding down the hill in front of property. Bear Valley was only 25 minutes away! We would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed a great stay at this property. The home was very clean and we had everything we needed to cook all meals. Instructions for check in and out were simple and easy. We woke one morning to snow falling and we were able to use the sleds provided to take the kids sledding across the street in the open meadow. Highly recommend this cabin for families, specifically with kids older than 3 because the indoor railings are a little wide. Would definitely stay here again.

Our family of 9 loved staying in this cabin. Two couples and mother stayed in the 3 main bedrooms, and the 4 kids all slept in the bunk room, it was perfect. We were perfectly located between Calaveras Big Trees and the snow parks and ski resort. The property is on a slight hill too so the kids just went right outside to make their own sled runs. Can't wait to come back and visit again!

Property was perfect size, location, and had fresh snow when we got up on Saturday morning. We never left the house for anything, kids played right next to the cabin. Awesome time with family, will rent this one again soon.

We had a wonderful long weekend at the cabin. Owners’ communication was great, and the house was clean, comfortable and cozy. We will be back!

Everything about our stay was great. The house is personalized enough that it feels homey and special, but not so much that you feel like you’re in someone else’s space. Our hope was that the yard would offer an opportunity for kids to play in the snow. Not only did we get that, but we were able to sled in the “backyard.” The kids (and adults) had a blast and it was so convenient to not have to leave the property to entertain the kids.

We enjoyed staying at this property, but we’re shocked to find out that the property has surveillance cameras. While this may seem necessary for the security of the owners’ home, we felt it was an invasion of our privacy. After finding out there were cameras, I reviewed the listing and there was no indication that the owners let renters know that they have cameras.

The house is cozy and was stocked with all we needed. recommended!

This cabin is a great place to stay for a family getaway. It is only 20 minutes away to great snow sleading spots. The cabin has lots of board games, foosball and darts to play. Plenty of options on the smart tv and good wifi signal throughout. My family had a great time.

Love the place, love the process. Quaint cabin and perfect for our family. Location is really great, close to everything we needed.
