Enjoy the gas log stove in the winter or on cool summer mornings. The living room has a 40" smart TV, fast WiFi internet, CD & DVD players, free HULU account as well as a small DVD and VHS library. There are also board games, puzzles, and books for guests to enjoy. There is room for three at the kitchen counter - enjoy breakfast or a quick snack right there. The dining table seats eight comfortably.

On the main floor, there are two bedrooms - each with a queen bed and the bathroom has a shower/tub combo. On the main floor, there is also is a stacked washer/dryer for guest use. Upstairs is a small loft with a foosball table, sofa, beanbag chair and small VCR unit no TV or cable (there is a very small TV and cable for the kids so this is not needed).

Enjoy summer barbecues around the picnic table or just enjoy the views with your morning cup of coffee. There is a charcoal barbecue on the deck for guest use (guests should bring their own charcoal.)

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was literally a last minute booking thru Vrbo. As it was last minute Dorrington Realty was able to accommodate us with last minute arrival. We truly enjoyed our stay. Really had that cabin look and feel. 4th of July weekend was very pleasant. Enough room for the whole family. Cabin had everything you needed, fully stocked. We will definitely cone back.

    Cozy cabin. Nice and warm

    Nice cabin on a court; little traffic. When we arrived, the cabin was extremely cold. It had snowed the night before. The Nest thermostat didn’t work. The cabin is primarily heated by a gas fireplace located in the living room. We kept trying for about 20 minutes, then called the management company. The rep was very apologetic and said that the Nest thermostat had been a problem for some time; maybe needing batteries? Anyway, he was able to help us locate the “emergency” thermostat and get it hooked up. This worked fine throughout our stay. Upon arrival, we noted that the door stop behind the front door had been broken. A flood light on the deck wasn’t working. Tried to find a replacement bulb, without success. Upon trying to ensure that the bulb was appropriately tightened it was noted that the socket was probably broken. The cabin was very comfortable and met our needs. It was about a 25 minute drive to Bear Valley for our cross country skiing. The cabin is near Arnold and its restaurants a good grocery store and the Big Trees state park. The informational binder in the cabin was very helpful, but needs to be reviewed and updated. For example, the binder states the check out time is 11am. This would have been a more reasonable time and would have provided one more relaxed morning in the cabin. Other reviewers have also stated this. Didn’t want to leave. Would return!

    It's a nice cabin within 35 min drive of Bear Valley Ski or Sno-park sledding options and very close to Calaveras Big Trees park. The cabin itself is well equipped for cooking and enjoying the company of others around the dining table, or the gas-burning stove (heater). A decent grocery store is only 15 min drive, so overall we found it easy and convenient.

    This was our second time staying at this property, and it was, again, great! We enjoy its proximity to Bear Valley Skiing. Hopefully we will return for another visit!

    We had a great time. The cabin met our needs, and the grandkids loved the Foosball table. The host was very attentive and helpful.

    We came to ski and this was perfectly located. We cooked in and the kitchen was well equipped. They even had a slow cooker which made dinner easy.
