About this property
Serene Sierra Cabin in the Big Trees Forest- Dog Woods Cabin
Enjoy the fresh air and quiet at this relaxing and serene 3bd/1.5 bath 1968 groovy A-frame cabin. Located on 1.5 wooded acres, the backyard is the Calaveras Big Trees State Park in the Blue Lake Springs Development in Arnold. Year-round Moran Creek runs on the edge of the property. The cabin location is very private on a street with a majority of vacation homes. All wood inside: tongue-in-groove pine ceilings and walnut paneling, large wood-burning stove which has three flat places to cook. Fully stocked kitchen with vintage pink and white formica counters and breakfast bar which seats four. Dining on resin-topped circular table made by designer of first chair-lift in Squaw Valley. Gigantic redwood wraparound deck to enjoy the bliss of Big Trees-Calaveras State Park in the backyard. On main floor, two bedrooms: one queen, one with two twins, full bath with large bathtub/shower; in loft: one queen and one twin, and 1/2 bath. Sofa is down filled. Retro decor with orange glass lamps, kilim rugs and down comforters on all beds. Vintage electric keyboard and full stereo system. Huge redwood deck surrounded by blooming Dogwoods springtime. Can sleep 7-8.. Weekend dinners at Snowflake lodge, full kitchen or gas barbeque at the cabin. 35" to Bear Valley Ski Area, downhill or cross country. 20" to wine tasting in 1850's historic Murphys. So much to do or not!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Robin Hansen

Robin is a San Francisco Bay Area Native who is a professional violinist in San Francisco. Went to Berkeley High School and U. C. Berkeley. Cliff was raised in Mississippi and the Bay Area. We love the mountains and everything they have to offer: to swim, to hike, to listen to music, to relax.
Why they chose this property
We always loved enjoying the Arnold area, first renting a friend's cabin, then buying our own. It's a true cabin: no drywall, all tongue-in-groove pine, wood beams, and walnut paneling. We love vintage furnishings, everything was procured for the cabin to fit the groovy late 60's- early 70's decor.
What makes this property unique
We have the only year-round stream in Blue Lake Springs running on the edge of our property - Moran Creek. The forest surrounding the cabin is filled with Incense Cedar, White Fir, Douglas Fir, Black Oak, Dogwoods, Alders lining Moran Creek and mountain lilacs.
