Absolutely Lovely! Quiet, picturesque and very clean. Highly recommended.
The host was responsive, but I had to ask for the key code. A binder of information was tucked under the coffee table and departure day instructions were taped to the side of the refrigerator. Neither were in obvious places and could use updating for consistency purposes The cabin was very clean and that was appreciated.
This cabin was beautiful. Wow. So cozy, homey and charming. Clean. Loved all the windows!! Such beautiful views. Easy check in and check out. Property owner was very responsive. Only hard thing is the stairs if you have littles. Thanks and we’ll hopefully be back again!

House was quiet and clean. Pillows were pretty flat but overall the house Worked well for a family of 4. Driveway was a bit of doozy- you have to back out uphill at an angle. But great location by Big Trees Park and nice to eat on the patio after a long day. Laundry facilities and a family room
My husband and I needed a last minute one-night stay in Arnold and were grateful that we could rent this cabin. Overall our stay was good. The cabin had plenty of room for us and was clean. We really enjoyed the deck in the evening and in the morning.
The entry instructions were confusing and we were thankful we didn't arrive at night. Things were also made harder as our cell phones don't work there without wifi. But the property manager was very quick to respond and we realized we were using the wrong key box, since there were 2 and we had no idea.
There's definitely some delayed maintenance with the cabin.
