Cozy family stay

We enjoyed our stay in this lovely mountain cabin. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was well stocked. The host was easy to reach and responsive. One tip for others: The sleeping loft is not ideal for young children or anyone with mobility issues as it’s a steep ladder to climb into the loft. Was not an issue for us as we didn’t intend to use it.

Sweet Time in Arnold

We enjoyed our stay in Eloisa’s Arnold cabin. It was a great spot for our family. Conveniently located near town and a quick drive to snow. The addition of a SnoPark Pass to borrow was a nice touch. Keep in mind, the ladder to the attic bunk space is steep and Eloisa rightfully checks the ages of guests staying up there. Our 10 and 12 year did great sleeping up there, but it certainly takes awareness going up and down the ladder. We could have used one more bath towel and an additional roll of toilet paper for our family of 5, but overall we had a lovely stay.

Perfect little cabin

We enjoyed staying at this cozy cabin over the MLK long weekend. The house is lovingly maintained by the owner and has all the essentials. It is VERY clean. Heating it was super easy with propane “wood stove” and a wall heater. Bedrooms don’t have heaters, but they got enough heat from the main heater. Located at the cul-de-sac, it offered additional space for outdoor play . There was no snow when we were there, but I can see how it would a nice sledding area outside when there’s snow . About 35 min drive to bear valley. Host provided a snowpack pass (we didn’t use it as bear valley adventure park didn’t accept it), but it can be used at Spicer snow park (on the way to bear valley).

Great property, clean and comfortable

We stayed here in January and had a great time skiing in Bear Valley and playing at the snow parks. The house was in great condition and looks just like the photos. Most importantly, the heat worked, and was straightforward. We've seen other houses, and even stayed in another house in Arnold where the heat was either wood burning, or didn't heat up all the rooms well. The easy-to-use central heating here was efficient, comfortable, and responsive to the thermostat. The beds were comfortable. Checkin was simple and matched the clear instructions. Eloisa was such a great host. We had some questions before we got there, and she was so helpful and patient in answers our questions. After we checked out, I realized that I had forgotten an AirPod at the house. I figured it was lost. Eloisa actually wrote me back later that day that the cleaner had found it in the linens. She went to the trouble of mailing it back to me. We loved the stay and would love to stay here again next time we come, whether it's in the summer or winter.

Wonderful little stay

We love Arnold and due to unforeseen circumstances we were looking for a place for July 4th weekend at the very last minute. Boy did we luck out! The house is simple in style, but it had everything we could possibly want. It was clean, well stocked, and comfortable. The deck was the real jewel of the house and where we spent most of our time. Nice grill, outdoor dining table, and plenty of chairs to lounge around on. The beds were comfortable and while it was blazing hot up there, the house had plenty of fans to help keep you cool. Eloisa was east to communicate with and also gave some amazing recommendations. It was a lovely last minute find and we would certainly rent it again! Thanks for a lovely stay!

Cozy, warm, clean, just about the right size for a family of 4 (with two young kids) for a few days close to Bear Valley. Host was very responsive and easy to communicate. Overall we liked our stay a lot and would love to come back next time we plan a trip to Bear Valley.

Arnold gem

We have stayed at a number of vacation rentals in Arnold over the years, and this one was the best for our family of four! The owners have tastefully renovated this cozy home, the kitchen is well equipped, there was plenty of internet bandwidth, there is a huge new deck, and the view is lovely. The owner was very responsive, kind, helpful, and attentive to detail. We hope to visit again!

Great location

Great, clean cabin with a beautiflful outdoor deck. Eloísa was very accomodating and helpful with our stay and with things to do around the area. The cabin is very close to Calaveras Big Trees State Park, Logging Museum and White Pines Lake. There are a lots of nice places to explore. We initially were planning to go to Tahoe, but we were very happy that we chose Eloísa’s place in Arnold, CA. We hope to be back one day!

Clean, tranquil, book it!

Clean kept cabin with a secret loft that sleeps 2. The new deck and view from it was very enjoyable. We ate out on the deck every night. The king bed was very firm but after the second night we got used to it and slept great. Having fans in every room helped cool the cabin down after sunset and the roomy kitchen was nice to cook in. Over all we completely enjoyed the cabin. It was clean, neat and comfortable. And being at the end of a cul de sac there was no traffic.

Perfect location

The location at the end of a street which backs up to the forest was perfect. We had deer stroll by in the morning and at dusk - which was the highlight of the trip for us. The property was clean, comfortable, and felt like home. The owner was easy to work with and we could get in touch with them without difficulty. I would definitely recommend staying at this property.

Relaxing and Adventurous

The location is perfect! The house has everything needed as well. We grilled out everyday and had a fire going one night. The house is perfect. The back deck does squeak a lot but it was funny to us. We didn't even go to any of the blm swimming areas but went hiking. So many hiking spots it was awesome! We will be back!

Fabulous getaway in the Seira’s!

This is a great home with vaulted ceilings, gas stove, cool kids loft and huge deck with beautiful views of the woods and sunsets. On a dead end street it’s very quiet. We had a great time in big tree park, Arnold rim trail, Murphy for wineries- iron wood gorgeous, and Columbia old west town great to visit. Zip line and mine tour at moaning mine really fun. Eloise is very responsive and happy home owner.

About the host

Your host

We are a working family of three who live in the Bay Area. We enjoy outdoors and spend most of our free time working and playing in our cabin.

Why they chose this property

We have been visiting this area since 2002. When time to purchase a property was right, we didn't hesitate in making our second home here. It is as beautiful as Tahoe and Yosemite (and close to these places) but quiet and easy to get in the busiest weekends or holidays. Many local friendly people.

What makes this property unique

Sitting on the deck spotting the blue jets flying from the ponderosas to the oaks to the ciders; deer coming down the hill, or listening to the seasonal creek in winter. The slope in the property is just perfect for sledding when snowy. Most of the time snow clears quickly, so we just go out the door and down fast by the creek.
