Great cabin in a lovely little neighborhood! We didn’t get to use the hot tub or the fire pit, so hopefully next time it won’t be stormy lol. Chelsea was fantastic and overall we had a great time there. We will most certainly be back!

We have stayed at other VRBO'S, but found this property to be the best of them all. The cabin was adorable, very clean, nicely decorated with all the mountain amenities that made us feel comfortable and right at home. It is perfectly located and allowed us to enjoy all the local gold rush towns, many lakes and recreation areas. The owner provided many details in this property to make sure our stay was a memorable one. If you are like us, looking for a dog friendly place, they have provided a dog heaven. We believed the dogs had more fun than us. We highly recommend this property to friends and family. We will definitely be back!!!!!Jerry and Karen

Pinecone Cottage was the perfect winter getaway. The host truly leaves no detail unaccounted for, and it was so appreciated to have everything we needed for a ski weekend. From the cozy pellet stove to the espresso setup and hot tub, the cabin was comfortable, well-equipped, and thoughtfully prepared. We couldn’t have been happier with our stay—highly recommend!

We had a fabulous and relaxing time. We enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit, and the indoor pellet stove. We had never used one before it was great. There were no other folks in the neighborhood, which we loved. We stayed during the week. We would definitely come again maybe when there is snow. Everything you need comfortable and clean hosts very responsive and welcoming! We had a perfectly perfect relaxing getaway. Treat yourself!

Excellent stay! We'll be back again!

The house was wonderful and we were very happy with our stay. We had no complaints and the hosts were very responsive. We plan to stay again in the summer to be able to partake in more local trails. We stayed when there was still a good amount of snow on the ground, but it was refreshing to walk our dog around the neighborhood with all the beautiful snow. Would totally recommend this rental to anyone!

Overall great trip. The lodge was clean and well maintained. The hot tub was a highlight. In addition, Bobby provided amazing customer service when we bumped into a local issue with PG&E cutting off power in the neighborhood. We would definitely come back.

Winter wonderland

Wow we can’t say enough about this cabin. Our family of 5 has the best time. Kids played in the snow for hours daily, hot tub fun while it snowed, played Atari, board games and watching movies. We loved all the special touches like the biscotti’s and cookies. The cabin has everything you need. We would definitely come back.

This is a nice clean property with a traditional cabin feel. The owners keep it well maintained with comfortable bedding and furniture. The hot tub was clean and comfortable and the espresso machine a huge highlight. A few limited but noteworthy disappointments though include the kitchen items which were mostly outdated and / or limited in supply such as eating and kitchen utensils as well as pots and pans. The overall decor and bathrooms in particular are also quite outdated. But, if you are looking for an old fashioned, clean, comfortable and family friendly cottage, this is a great place to stay near Arnold. But, if you love to cook or consider yourself a foodie we suggest bringing your own cooking and dining gear.

Wonderful Family Cabin with All the Amenities

Our family of 3 plus little dog had a fantastic stay at the Pinecone Cottage. We loved the jacuzzi after long days of skiing. We loved that the kitchen had all of the cooking utensils, pots, pans, and appliances we needed for meals. The WiFi was reliable, and we had access to many streaming services and movies. The beds were comfortable! The towels were plentiful! The driveway was plowed each morning! Chelsea and Bobby are thoughtful hosts, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Home away from home

We came here to celebrate my son’s 12th birthday and had a great time. The property was clean and well- equipped, we cooked both nights we were there. The hot tub was a treat, as was the sno park pass! Chelsea was always quick to respond and a great communicator. Love the neighborhood, and how well- groomed the streets were even after snowfall. I would love to stay here again! Thank you Chelsea!
