"Jim (host) is so responsive and available to talk to! This cabin is wonderful. The river is so close and beautiful. The sound of the water can be heard inside the cabin and is so soothing. The 3 level decks (2 of then covered) all are great. It has a well stocked kitchen, 2 full size couches and a recliner that are very nice and comfortable. The decor is beautiful.The bed is so comfortable (we only slept downstairs) but the second floor rooms are nice with lots of beds and 2 bathrooms to accommodate many more guests. We wished there were some throw blankets for being all comfy, but the nearby store sold them. The only problem we encounter was there were tons of wet pine needles on the driveway which is understandable, as it rained for a full day, but with them and the slope to get out of the driveway, my tires just spun and we couldn’t drive out. I had to manually remove them before we could drive up and out. But it worked! Yay. I only mention that so others might be aware of that possibility. We had a great week and this cabin will be our go to place for sure!"

"Very clean and inviting home with loads of privacy. Literally 6 mins from Calaveras Big Trees state park. Our family of six felt like we were staying at relative’s house. The kitchen was pristine and well stocked as well as the bathrooms. The beds were all clean and comfortable with an abundance of extra pillows and blankets as needed. Amanda was the best at responding and was such a flexible and gracious host. Overall, my family had a wonderful time and would not hesitate to highly recommend this cabin! A++!!!"
