About this property
An Acre of Nature ~ wood burning stove & beautiful deck!
Come enjoy our family home on an amazing acre of forest. Bring the whole family and your friends; with two bedrooms and a large lower level game/media room with bunk beds, you'll have plenty of space to stretch out inside. Enjoy the impressive backyard vista while sipping your favorite beverage on the spacious wraparound deck. Close to Arnold dining, Bear Valley skiing, Murphys shopping & wineries, as well as endless hiking and exploring at Calaveras Big Trees State Park and surrounding.
The open floor plan main level of the home features seating for up to 10 at the Thanksgiving-worthy dining table with additional kitchen countertop seating. Our place is stocked with games and a kickin sound system & Smart TV to keep the good times rolling upstairs, or pop some popcorn and head down to the lower level to fire up a movie on the 65" smart TV. For summer guests, no need to worry about the Arnold heat waves - our Central A/C keeps you cool throughout the whole house. For our winter guests, a wood burning stove keeps the main room nice and toasty on cold nights (we provide fire starters and plenty of firewood) while you play games around the table, relax on the couches for movie night, or curl up in the reading nook. On chilly winter days the central heat & wood stove will keep you comfortable. For snowy mountain fun, you can drive 30-45 minutes up the highway to Bear Valley.
All the beds are made with clean duvet covers so you never have to worry about the cleanliness of any of the bedding. The master bedroom is outfitted with a luxury California king mattress and all of the beds have high quality linens and mattresses.
You'll have access to the two car garage where you can charge up your electric vehicle on the level two 220 volt charger, wash your clothes in the front-load Samsung washer and dryer, or open up the ping pong table to find out who's got the best forehand smash in the family. Summer and winter excursion gear will be waiting for you there as well with sleds, tubes, noodles, folding chairs a cooler, and ice packs. You’ll also find a size large collapsible dog kennel, a dog bed, and a dog dish if you decide to bring a goodboy or a goodgirl along ($60 per pup, max 2). Unlike many Arnold rentals, we provide garbage service for our guests, so no need to haul your trash out.
When you're ready to experience the outdoors, head out to the expansive deck to take in the views from 25 feet up under the shade of the incense cedar. Next take the kids and the dog down to the back of the property to explore the acre of nature and find endless opportunities for imaginative play and some truly epic sledding terrain.
