About the host

Hosted by Kaylie Milliken

Host profile image
We (Kaylie and Eric) are Bay Area residents, but Arnold has become our home away from home. Kaylie grew up in nearby Sonora and still has many family members there. She has a plethora of information if you are looking for fun, unique things to do! We love taking our kids to the mountains all times of year: skiing/snowboarding in the winter, hiking and biking in the spring/summer/fall, playing at the lakes allll summer long, catching lizards, fishing, exploring... the kids love building "fairy houses" on the property to see if any surprise visitors show up and leave special rocks or shells behind.

Why they chose this property

From the moment we saw this cabin, we were hooked! Arnold and the surrounding area captured our hearts from the moment we first drove up.

We wanted to buy a cabin but weren't sure where. We explored South Lake Tahoe, Truckee, other places north of Sacramento, and at the last minute, decided to check out Arnold. This was the first cabin we saw in Arnold, and the next ten cabins we looked at didn't hold a candle! We love everything about it - a new build, having Kaylie's family nearby, a short drive to Murphys (which holds great wine tasting and restaurants!), a convenient drive to Bear Valley, walking distance to a lake, living amongst the red woods, and waking up to the smell of pine trees wafting all around.

We love hosting and are thrilled that we have the space to have guests up with us at any time, thanks to the separate studio space. When we have guests with kids, the kids all like to pile into the rumpus room for a big sleepover!

What makes this property unique

This cabin was the contractor's own home. He was a masterful woodworker, and you see his work throughout the property. Did you notice the pine trees carved into the wood railings? You can hop on your bike and ride straight from the house to a number of trails.
