Dog-friendly Cabin 3 Mi to Big Trees State Park!
Arnold
"This cozy little cabin is a gem amongst the trees! The beds are soft, the kitchen is well equipped and the outside seating areas are absolutely wonderful. The weather was so nice, we were barely inside! Our host was available to us and we had very good communication with her. The neighborhood is peaceful and you can take a walk around Snowshoe lake or have a picnic and wade in the water there. In general, the location is excellent -- just a few miles through Arnold to visit the majestic redwoods...

"The realtor office was very organized and friendly. The on line pictures do give this unit a bigger feel. The furniture was well used but over all for a pet friendly unit it worked. Definitely needs a deep cleaning, the coffee pot and stove felt of grease and it was quite odd to have unit owner items in the fridge. "

10/10 Excellent
"Our stay at Secret River Retreat was fabulous. We visited in late July/early August and it was a wonderful oasis to come back to each afternoon after visiting Yosemite. My kids loved having access to the stream. We cooked dinner each night and found the house had exactly what we needed. I also found the house nicely stocked with paper towels, toilet paper, trash bags, soap, etc. We did not have to purchase anything extra while we were here. The park is in a nice location- about 25 minutes to downtown Groveland where there is a nice grocery story and restaurants and only a short drive to the Big Flat Oak Entrance to Yosemite. Dan was very communicative and we appreciate his hospitality. We would defitnely stay here again."
