Clean, comfortable, convenient house
We loved our stay. Everything was easy and comfortable. Loved having a grocery store and a couple of restaurants walking distance away. I only wish the door code could have been provided the day before our arrival; it was provided the morning we were trying to get on the road, and I had to unpack my computer to check the email to access the door code (i don't have the app.) It was a bit of a hassle and a little nerve wracking . Everything else was great. Recommended.

Family Time In the Snow,,,,,,My family and I again had a wonderful time at Scott's cabin.The location is fantastic and close to everything. The cabin is spacious and exceptionally clean and well cared for. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals and the cabin itself just feels super comfortable. Thanks Scott for another memorable weekend.

Great Property and location
This was our first time in Arnold and we really enjoyed our stay. the kitchen was fully stacked and the house was clean (except lot of dog hair on the sofa). We were not able to enjoy the backyard due to continuous rain, but overall had a great time. It gave the feeling of a home away from home. Scott was very responsive and helpful. We would love to come back again and stay here.

Spacious 3 bedroom home
This home had what we needed for a stay in Arnold during ski season. Living room/kitchen/dining area was a nice large room. Not super fancy/modern but functional bathrooms /kitchen.

Best time ever!
We loved everything our stay at this beautiful, comfortable home. My 89-year-old father lives in the area, but we’ve outgrown his home and wanted to spend Thanksgiving close to him. Everything went smoothly from the beginning. Scott was very responsive and it was just easy. The house itself is comfortable and plenty of room to spread out.
We all really enjoyed reading about the history of the property and highly recommend reading the coffee table book when you stay here! The beds were comfortable, the kitchen was stocked, and my son was stoked to have waffles on one cold morning! I can’t say enough about this property and will be returning. Thank you to Scott and his family!

Great host, great location
We enjoyed staying at this home in Arnold, which is close enough to walk to the brewery/restaurant, grocery store and other necessities, and a short drive to Calaveras Big Trees Park. The home is large and comfortable. The host kindly let check in early on a Saturday and was very communicative. We enjoyed playing horseshoes in the backyard. The kitchen is extremely well stocked for cooking. The blankets and linens could use a deep clean, and the yard some tidying, but we were comfortable.

Good Wines
Five of us 70 ish old gals came to Arnold to see Steve Miller at Ironstone, which was postponed, but as we had the Mountain Meadow View Retreat rented for 4 nights we came anyway and had a very great time. The floor plan worked nicely, the view of the meadow was mesmerizing and Scott has been attentive and very kind. Cleanliness was an issue for us but Scott took it seriously, apologized and even refunded our cleaning deposit.

Mountain Meadow View Vacation
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this is lovely, rustic cabin with a beautiful view. The kitchen was one of the best equipped I have used. and the large living area gives plenty of space if you have a large group. The back patio is wonderful for relaxing. We even had an unexpected visit from a bear late one night!

We loved the location of this property….it was close to a shopping center, as well as more options in Murphys. The place was cool, quiet, and had the things we needed to cook a few meals and rest after hiking and fishing nearby. We will definitely be back!

First ever cabin experience!!
We spent a couple nights at this cabin , it’s well maintained, clean and the location is very close to shopping markets , restaurants and Big Tree state park . The most convenient aspect for us was that the Tesla supercharger was very close to where we stayed so that was a huge relief!! The hosts were very responsive and we enjoyed our cabin experience!! Arnold is a great place to rent a cabin and enjoy !!

A very “chill” place in a beautiful location
Came here for three days. Spent zero time reviewing emails. Feels like a million miles away from civilization, even though everything you could need is literally five minutes away. Very good restaurants are in the adjacent shopping center. Drive up the hill to see incredible scenery. Beautiful trees. Highly recommended for anyone wanting an escape from work. Host is very responsive.
