Cozy Mountain Hone

Beautiful cozy home. We awoke to a blanket of snow....magical. Great location for a quick drive to skiing at Bear Valley. And an easy drive the other direction for a day in Murphys. I was concerned on arrival about the temperature in the home. But quickly warmed up with wall heaters and cozy wood-burning stove. Thank you, Marta!

Peaceful Retreat

We decided on a whim to go and stay in Arnold for a few days. Usually we stay in a hotel but we decided to try evolve and find a home and we decided on this one.It is a lovely home nestled among tall trees. It's quiet. It's peaceful. The home has a large deck area. Perfect for pulling up a chair and just watching nature. The inside of the home is very comfortable. It offers three bedrooms. It was easy to set up the crates for our Boston terriers in one of the bedrooms. They really enjoyed having their own room! The kitchen is well equipped and made it easy to cook dinner. The family room has a large television and a comfy sofa.The home is blocks away from a gorgeous lake! So that was an added bonus. The homes location is perfect. Easy to get to shopping, the Rim trails and Big Trees State Park.Yes, we will be going back.

My family and I enjoyed the cabin. The inside was very clean, everything worked well and was in good condition. We enjoyed the hot tub as well. Although the homes were close together, it was pretty quiet outside. The cabin was the perfect size for a family of four and the location was great for Big Trees, kayaking and restaurants.

House was clean and nicely furnished. Check in and out was simple and quick. Host was lovely to communicate with. We appreciated the small touches and our daughter and dog appreciated the toys! Lovely, quiet neighborhood, the pond was very enjoyable to swim in.

We had a wonderful stay at this lovely home, we just wish we could have stayed one more night! One tiny inconvenience was the outside trash cans are locked up, so all trash removal has to be done by the house cleaner or by calling a trash service. Since we had a short stay, we didn’t have enough trash to call for a pick up, but one requirement for the property is to dispose of your pets’ waste. I did not want to put the waste in the house trash for obvious reasons so I took it with us and found a public trash can in town to get rid of it. Otherwise, we had an amazing time enjoying all the cool features this property has to offer. We will definitely be back

Best vacation ever!

We had a wonderful stay. The location was perfect, just a short walk to the community ponds, where our kids spent hours swimming and playing. It’s also only about 8 minutes from Big Trees State Park, so getting out to explore the giant sequoias was super easy.The house itself was very clean and well-maintained, with everything we needed for a comfortable family getaway. One of our favorite touches was the record player, it made our family board game nights extra fun and nostalgic!There were plenty of enjoyable activities nearby for the kids, and we really appreciated how safe and family friendly everything felt, both in the home and in the surrounding area. Highly recommend for families looking for a relaxing, adventure-filled escape!

Pleasant cottage

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. The place was well equipped and had a casual atmosphere. Great proximity to all our favorite places. The effort the owners put in to think of everything was obvious and heartfelt. We didn't use the Smart TV and we are not very tech savvy and like the Roku style with Apps we use often. The wifi was great however, not always the case in Arnold.

Seriously the best stay

This cabin is so inviting! They thought of everything. My favorite part was the hot tub! I love the record player, it was such a nice touch. The swing hammock that can be moved inside and out was the best! I love the washer drying in one. It made it so easy to wash some clothes and leave. The fire pit was perfect. It was so clean and the host was very clear and easy to work with. This space is perfect for family’s because of the trampoline and obstacle course. There is a small lake to swim in just walking distance away. I went here with girlfriends and it was so perfect for us. The town is so sweet and there are cool towns to explore near by. We went paddle boarding and hiking.

Well stocked house

The house was nice - as described. Bonus points for having a well-stocked kitchen (condiments, coffee, etc).The only areas for improvement are lack of central heating (there are in-wall electric heaters in each room...they seemed to work but had to turn each on on individually) and the mattress in the primary bedroom was very soft (personal preference though).Overall I'd go back!

Functional but not comfortable

The house was clean and had enough space for our family to sleep comfortably. The location and surrounding area were also very nice. However, the house had a musty, old-fashioned smell that was noticeable when we arrived. The bed in the master bedroom wasn’t very comfortable due to the foam mattress topper, and we would have appreciated some extra pillows and towels.We tried using the washer/dryer combo for our daughter’s clothes, but they didn’t come out smelling fresh—possibly because the machine door is usually left closed. Additionally, there was no outdoor garbage can provided, and no instructions were given on where to take the trash.
