The whiskey hideaway is a perfect retreat for family getaway. The place was very clean and had everything labeled clearly to find on the kitchen. The game room was nice and cool for the kids to spend most of their time in and all the toys and books were put to use while we spent evenings in. Having a baby gate available was also a huge plus!! This cabin is so inviting and cozy. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again. The hosts were readily available to help with any questions we had during our stay and provided information on trails and activities in the local area. We top notch in experience through and through.
The cabin was perfect for our family staycation! Exactly as pictured, great location and had everything we needed for a cozy stay. Everything was clean, modern and comfortable. Our host provided excellent communication before and during our stay, including awesome recommendations for nearby restaurants and activities. We’ll definitely be back!
We had a great stay at this log cabin in Arnold. The house was very clean, beautifully designed, and had everything we needed. Our boys especially enjoyed the plentiful toys in the house, which came in very handy and kept them happily entertained. We would definitely stay here again.
The house was wonderful—upgraded, comfortable, and exactly as described. The host was welcoming, attentive, and made sure everything went smoothly during our stay. The location was perfect, close to Big Trees and Murphys, making it easy to explore the area.We loved the space and all the thoughtful touches that made it feel like home. Would definitely stay here again!
This was the perfect cabin for our family weekend getaway. It is even more spacious than the photos suggest, with plenty of room to stretch out The decor is awesome, stylist and modern. Check in and directions made the entry process seemless, and Jimmy was super responsive to questions and with recommendations. The place had all the supplies we could possibly need and has a great washer/dryer set up. Bedding was super comfortable. Nice deck and outdoor hangout area. Super clean environment. Would book again anytime!
The owners were very responsive and helpful, property was clean and comfortable. It worked out perfectly for our group of 3 adults and 4 kids. We would definitely stay here again.

Thank you Heather. We're glad your family enjoyed the cabin. We look forward to hosting your family on your next trip.
Two families with two younger children each stayed very comfortably at this property. The property looks like the pictures and it is close to restaurants and shopping. It was missing a few kitchen items, but the owner was very responsive and helpful.

Thank you McKenna. Glad your family enjoyed the cabin. We look forward to hosting you again.
Worked good for a girls weekend of 4 people. Plenty of beds and space to spread out. Bathrooms and kitchens updated. Neighborhood was very nice and quiet and it is close to the grocery store and restaurants.
This property was spacious and there was more than enough room for a family of 4. We stayed here to see the Calaveras Big Trees which was only a few mins away! Jimmy was responsive and provided us recommendations on places to visit. The kitchen was fully stocked and we made breakfast and dinner too! I would definitely stay at this place again.
The house was amazing and we had great time. My favorite part of the house was the beautifully updated kitchen. The decor is modern and the house itself was spacious. Thanks for a great trip!
Great location and updated home—My husband and I recently stayed here, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time. The neighborhood was quiet, and the home was updated and equipped with air conditioning, which is essential in this area. It was clean and met all our needs, being close to a grocery store and well-stocked with kitchen essentials. The host was very responsive and provided helpful information about the local area.
The host was fantastic and especially quick to reply to me. We missed some items and instructions in the kitchen and since we enjoy cooking (and eating!) it was really the only negative.
We were skeptical but the cabin was spotless and furniture was exactly as appeared in pictures. Beds were comfy and bathrooms had nicely updated fixtures, which made for a very comfortable stay. We had an issue with the heat and Jimmy was extremely responsive and fair. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to others.
We chose this location for a very special bff retreat, and it could not have been a better setting for the weekend we hoped to create.The home gave us exactly what we needed, comfortable spaces to gather, room to spread out with binders, brainstorming boards, and more sticky notes than any reasonable group of people should probably own. The dining and living areas quickly became our planning headquarters, and the peaceful setting made it easy to step away, recharge, and come back refreshed.A huge part of what made the stay so easy was Jimmy, the property manager. He was incredibly responsive, provided helpful details before and during our stay, and shared excellent recommendations for local food and activities. That level of communication made a real difference and made us feel very well cared for.One small note for summer guests, the air conditioning is a room unit that primarily cools the main living area. The two main bedrooms stayed quite warm, so that is worth knowing if you are visiting during hotter weather.That said, this was still a 10 out of 5 star stay for us. We came hoping to leave with a stronger bond in our friendship and plan for future non-profit. We left with that, wonderful memories, and the beginning of what is now an annual founders weekend tradition.This home will always hold a little piece of Sparkle Sisters history for us, because some very big dreams took shape around that dining room table.We would absolutely book this home again.
Okay! First, let me tell you that we had to cancel our trip due to a blizzard, and Jimmy did everything he could to accommodate us for another week and help us out. All the pictures are realistic, beds are very comfortable, the kitchen and house are super modern and high-quality. Jimmy left a bunch of wood for us. Definitely, we will be back, and I highly recommend this secret gem in Arnold. For those who want to ski, it is very close to Bear Valley. It is also close to hikes, downtown, and lakes.
This house was just what we needed for a long weekend away. It's located in a very quiet neighborhood but close to the grocery store. The interior was beautifully decorated. My 6yo love the downstairs playroom and his own bedroom down there with the bunk bed.
The house was very clean. The kitchen was well stocked. My only complaint would be that there are no shades on the bedroom windows.
Jimmy, our host, was very attentive and quick to respond to all my messages. We would absolutely come back!

Thank you Kristin. Would love to have your family come back anytime.
The host is very friendly. I have really enjoyed with communication. The house is really nice.The modern design, amazing kitchen with perfect hood. The neighborhood is great. You can have 2 hours hike and see wonderful forest and small river with waterfall directly from the house.Now about some minuses. There were couple problems with cleaning. Hairs in bathroom and contact lense in bedroom. After call these mess was removed. And there is no trash can on the street. If you travel for several days and cook at home - all trash with bad smell will be with you. It’s annoying on the 5th day. But may be we produced too much trash with small baby. May be I wish I have couple more pots: small and medium. That’s it. I think I’ll set 4,5*, but I can’t.
This is a beautifully renovated property with perfect space for two families with younger-older children to enjoy a weekend in the woods. We booked for a weekend after a major storm so had some snow to play with on the property. We were able to do simple sledding in the backyard. Wood furnace worked well to heat up the area and rooms had space heaters for extra warmth.
Host was very gracious. Easy to contact and readily offer calls to help with any questions regarding the property.definitely recommend if you are looking for a cabin in the woods. Kitchen was well stocked with essentials.
I’m happy to have booked this property and have made core memories for my little babes. We really appreciated the downstairs den with shuffleboard and arcade style game.
Thank you again to the hosts for helping us make a memorable weekend for our family!!!
