What a lovely cabin! Plenty of space, very comfortable beds and cute hipster (but very functional!) decorations. I was impressed with how well stocked the house was - from many cozy blankets, to fun games and puzzles, and a fully stocked and well labeled kitchen. Nothing was overlooked! Kelly was generous and easily reached. Look forward to checking out Arnold again and living The Good Life!

Great property, idyllic location
This is a wonderful cabin near Calaveras Big Trees State Park. We enjoyed the amenities such as the hot tub, the EV charging, and that it’s pet friendly.
The location is great for enjoying the forests and lakes of the area. The cabin itself is really thoughtfully decorated and updated.

Points forts : Propreté, emplacement et exactitude de l’annonce.
Points faibles : Arrivée, communication
The house is well appointed. Check in was relatively easy although the keypad to enter did not work initially and there is no cell signal to call to get help from the host. The host's check-out instructions do not include all the details including a requirement to wash spa towels (but not regular towels) which are instructions only visible in the onsite handbook. The spa also requires a code to use and you have to contact the host to get it. The owner also accused our family of taking an old polaroid camera and has yet to confirm if they have found it (likely so, since we have no need for one).

Good life Cabin indeed
A majestic abode nestled in the mountains high,
With vistas vast and clear azure sky,
Where nature's beauty gracefully abounds,
In this wondrous house, tranquility surrounds.
In the realm of hospitality, a host so kind,
Communicative and helpful, a true gem to find.
Guiding guests with grace, words so clear,
Creating moments cherished, far and near.
In the warmth of bubbling waters deep,
Enjoy the hot tub's soothing keep.
In this oasis, relaxation reigns,
A respite from life's daily strains.
Looking forward to the next visit!
