Wonderful and well appointed home! Had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Enjoyed the views from the back deck and watching the birds in the morning and evening.
This was our second time staying at Forest Meadows and we just love it here. Gracious hosts, tons of privacy, and peaceful views. Spacious enough for a family or 2 couples with everything you can think of. Fully stocked kitchen, laundry, tvs with Netflix, beautiful bathrooms, and an amazing master closet. Perfect location for visiting Murphys or Arnold or a day trip to the snow. We also just spend a lot of downtime inside because it’s that relaxing here! We love it here so much and are already planning our next stay! Cannot recommend enough!
Lovely—SO quiet—guest house…perfectly nestled in the trees, it feels like a tree house—but equipped with a beautifully stocked kitchen and everything you need to enjoy your time away!! So grateful that we found this spot!
Absolutely perfect place to relax and get away from it all. The house is clean and modern with all the amenities you need. And the views are impressive.
Lovely Place to Explore Murphys and Surrounding Area
We visited Calaveras Big Tree park and Mercer Cavern. It was an anniversary weekend to relax in nature. Our hosts, Arlene and Adam, could not have been more welcoming. Their place is beautifully decorated, has an amazing kitchen and a stunning view. Highly recommend!

Awesome home with amazing hospitality and incredible views
These hosts went above and beyond and providing amenities like snacks coffee and more, every detail was addressed far better than any hotel! The home is beautifully adorned with amazing views incredible privacy. I hope to stay here again sometime.
We had a lovely weekend at this comfortable house that perfectly suited our needs. We had easy access to Murphy's but were able to find peace and relaxation at this private location away from the crowds.
We had a fabulous weekend in a beautiful setting! The deck was our favorite part. The house is beautiful, comfortable and well stocked! Very kind owners!
This home is so well decorated. The kitchen has everything you need to dine in. This is our second time here, and we feel like it's our home away from home. We'll be back!
We can’t wait to go back. This house was perfect, even better than pictured. The owners were so helpful and friendly too. Loved it so much - so cozy, so clean, and oh so beautiful.
Arlene and Adam are the best. We have been here a few times and we will be back again. The view and peaceful setting keep us coming back. It's a quick drive to Murphys for wine tasting.
Cozy, clean, wonderful, fabulous house in the mountains!
This is a 6 star VRBO! The house is wonderful, it is brand new and has everything you want for a cozy place in the mountains. We spent a few days here, you are in a quiet area, remote but close to Murphys and Arnold and get the best of both worlds. The hosts are great and we’d definitely stay here again!!
We loved our stay. Arlene and Adam were wonderful hosts. The home is beautiful in a quiet location with an amazing view. Everything we could of hoped for. Very well stocked they thought of it all.

Thank you Lena! We look forwarding to hosting your family again in October.
Adam and Arlene have a beautiful guest home with woodsy views. The home is even more gorgeous than pictured and fully stocked with everything you could need. Property is great for relaxing, enjoying movies, and a nice location on the way to bear valley. We enjoyed the fully stocked kitchen and beautiful bathrooms. The deck has a fire pit with great views as well. Adam and Arlene were very attentive and helpful, yet respectful of our privacy. We loved the stay and hope to visit again!
The house is perfect for a quiet getaway. It is tucked back away from the hustle and bustle and has a great view! We were close enough to all of the attractions so that exploring the area was easy. Arlene and Adam were great hosts! Nice personal touches and coffee, bottled water, and snacks available as well. The house is comfortably furnished with a warm homey feeling. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay : - )
We had great time. The house is charming, brand new and nicely decorated. It has everything you can think of, all in high quality and great condition. The hosts are very attentive. Location was convenient for us to go to Spicer Sno Park. Thank you Arlene and Adam for a lovely hospitality.
We picked the hottest days of the year to visit, just lucky I guess. The house is beautiful and very well appointed. Owners are close by and very available when we had questions. Beautiful view. The kitchen is better appointed than my one at home. Thanks for a comfortable stay.
