Arnold Cabin
Overall we enjoyed our stay in Arnold. The cabin is in a beautiful part of the woods. Because it's in the woods there were some bugs in the house, which probably is inevitable to some extent, but the amount of spiders / spider webs did catch us off guard. Several dead bugs on the ground. It was quite hot in the summer without AC, but having the fans going and getting some airflow with the screen doors worked well enough. It usually cooled off enough by the time we were ready to go to bed. There is a laundry machine and dryer in the basement which is accessed through a door with a padlock in the back yard. This was not described at all on the listing and I would have had no idea it was there unless I searched pretty hard and noticed that the VRBO listing said it had laundry / dryer. The internet is fast. The private lake nearby is awesome, especially when it's hot in the summer. You are supposed to have a parking permit for the lake. The one in the house is outdated from last year but nobody said anything to us about it. The location is really great with tons of hiking around. The Arnold Rim trail is just a few minutes away, and Calaveras Big Trees State Park was also just a 10 minute drive. Murphys is a cute town nearby with plenty of wineries and restaurants. Some of the dishes in the cabinets were still quite dirty so we had to wash them before we used them. So to summarize it wasn't the cleanest place I've ever stayed but we still really enjoyed ourselves.

Lovely yet Scary
Lovely place, clean overall, good communication with manager. However way too many spiders and spider webs throughout the house , my daughters slept in the living room due to the spiders on the walls. Bring your own hand soap there wasn’t any

Great cabin
We had a great stay in your cabin. It was cozy and comfotable. The couches and beds were comfortable . The onpy complaint was the ants in the tiny kitchen. Never got too bad, but still a bit annoying.

Perfect Cabin
This quaint town is just a few short hours from the Bay Area and this cozy cabin was perfect for me and my family. Coffee on the deck was amazing with beautiful trees and wildlife. The beds were comfortable and the cabin had everything we needed. There were even games for the kids to play and chairs for the lake. Highly recommend this cozy A Frame Cabin!!!

Wonderful cabin
Overall this was a great cabin in a great location.
It was clean and well equipped. Communication with property manager was prompt and the check-in/out process was easy. The HOA lake was really fun.
The beds were on the softer side - not as firm as I like but this could be a personal preference.
Overall, this is a lovely vacation rental.

weekend snow get away
This was our first time staying here. We loved it. Loved the wood cabin vibe. The Kitchen a very small but just for a weekend away it was fine. The place was pretty clean. The only thing was there was a big dead bug in middle of bathroom floor and the knifes in the kitchen had cobwebs. so it made me unsure of how clean the kitchen utensils where. But not big problem. wash everything first anyway. We felt the beds where much more comfortable then we expected and we where truly grateful for that as we have stay in places where we could not sleep at all which made very unpleasant weekend. SO that was very nice! I feel maybe having a couple small puzzles would be fun activity for families while they stay. there where some games but we brought our own as well. All In all we loved and I I would come back

Nice and cozy cabin but needs upgrades and better cleaning
The cabin looks nice and it was pretty quite while we were there. The interior looks pretty nice too.
However, I think there are many old things like the furnace that could be upgraded. My main concerns were below items: 1. the place was not safe enough for small kids. I dont think the super old furnace in the middle of the home that makes the covering super hot is safe. Also, stairs and second floor are not up to the code in my view. So, we had to limit the space to a part of first floor for the kids, which in a small cabin is not what you would look for.
2. Lots of dust here and there, spider webs in multiple places and kitchen drawers were not cleaned for ages.
3. No shampoo at all, no spice or anything like that in the kitchen. These small things don't cost a lot but make a big difference. I never was in a place that didnt have any of these and it caused problems for us.
4. We should have paid attention to the description, so i take it as our own fault, but this place doesnt have dishwasher, no washing machine ans obviously no dryer. I think it is a big deal for families.
