Just minutes from Calaveras Big Trees State Park, the town of Murphys, foothill Gold Country, and the Stanislaus National Forest, and 30 mintues from Bear Valley Ski Resort. The Meadowmont subdivision where this home is located has been a backbone of the Arnold area for many years as it has the only grocery store in Arnold, a shopping center, brewery, lodging and more. On the north side of Meadowmont, the neighborhood backs to roughly 8,500 acres of Stanislaus National Forest lands (called an interface), which provides plenty of hiking, biking, and hoof opportunities, as well as a connector to the new Arnold Rim Trail.
