Weekend away!
We had a great girls weekend and enjoyed our stay at the property. It was clean and had all that we needed for the weekend. The location was perfect! Close to town for food and music. Close to hiking at big trees and SUPing on Utica Reservoir. We will be back!

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.
We had an absolutely wonderful time staying at this cabin! The place was cozy, well-equipped, and had everything we needed to feel right at home. We spent hours playing in the snow, building snowmen, and enjoying the winter wonderland right outside our door. It was the perfect setting for quality time with family. The peaceful surroundings, combined with the warmth and charm of the cabin, made this trip unforgettable. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to create lasting memories. Highly recommend this spot!

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.

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.

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!
