Place is adequate for a ski rental. Lovely location. Nice deck. Lots of space. Not the most welcoming place to hang out though. Very dark. Not enough lamps and many dont work. Fireplace doesnt work well. Kitchen utensils are cheap n barely function. We ran to the store for a new can opener so at least that's new. Drawers they are kept in are dingy. Cupboards are full of expired stuff. Was an ok stay. We were hoping for a bit more comfort.

Hi Ed, We are glad you enjoyed the location, and are sorry we did not meet your expectations.
We have not had any feedback about our home being dark and not welcoming we usually receive the exact opposite. We have had lots of guests who have enjoyed our home and all of the things we have to offer.
We were unaware that the can opener was broken and would gladly reimburse you for the new one you purchased. We also have 2 drawers of kitchen tools and gadgets as well as a bucket on the counter by the stove.
We truly go above and beyond for our guests, and we are confident that future guests will have excellent stays!
Our party of seven had a comfortable stay at the cabin. The area was quiet, and close to town. All amenities were provided, so it made for a stress-free stay.
The house was amazing! We had a wonderful time playing games and hanging out. All the rooms were spacious and the beds were comfortable! It was a close drive into town and about a 30 min drive to Bear Valley. We will definitely be coming back to the area again!

My wife and I stayed at the cabin over Christmas, along with our young adult children and our dog. The cabin was an easy 25 minute drive to the lodge at Bear Valley Ski Resort. Arnold is a nice mountain town. (Pro-tip: rent your skis from SNAC on your way into town.)
Anyway, the cabin was well equipped. The fireplace was very cozy, as was the bed in the master bedroom. The dishwasher and the stove all worked well. We didn't make use of the deck and the grill, and the hammock was put away for the winter. But I could see how pleasant it would be to relax there in the summer while grilling something. The local grocery store had an impressive local wine selection.
The driveway could accommodate four vehicles, but we only had two. It could get crowded with four vehicles.

This home was a good size for our group- 4 adults and one toddler. The house is cutely decorated and the bathrooms are nice. Perfect location. Our only wish was if there were bath mats for the floor and a nonslip surface to the bathtubs. The patio table on the deck could also use some love - we didn’t end up eating outdoors despite the good weather.
