This Fabulous Big Trees Beauty has everything you could want for a first class vacation, with sleeping for eight and the ability to increase occupancy to twelve (at an extra per person charge). This cabin has three bedrooms, two baths and a loft game/play/sleep area along with a full-service kitchen; master suite with private access to the huge deck area which is perfect for easy entertaining. Our
vacation home is fully equipped and situated on one acre that backs up to the National Forest. In the summer, enjoy the beautiful outdoors at the cabin barbecuing on the deck or sitting around the fire pit to roast marshmallows (if it’s a burn day). Get out and go for a hike through Calaveras Big Trees State Park. You can fish, kayak, canoe, or even pan for gold on the Stanislaus River, or spend the day swimming and playing at Lake Alpine or Spicer. Explore at California Cavern, climb, crawl and squirm through gooey, sticky mud, or take a tour at the Gold Cliff Mine. Explore 2 historic gold mine sites, or at the Moaning Caverns, you can rappel 165 feet by rope to the bottom of the main chamber. If you enjoy the wine country, head down to Murphy’s, a 25 minute drive to visit some of the Sierra’s most outstanding wineries. Ironstone Winery is stunning, and has great concert attractions. They also have excellent wine, and in a vault the largest piece of gold ever found in California. Murphy’s downtown has charming shops and wonderful restaurants in which to dine. Arnold is closer to the cabin to spend the day browsing shops and restaurants, including the Snowshoe Brewery, that has some wonderful microbrews. In the winter watch the family sled in front of the deck or build a big snow man. We are only a 20 mile ride to Bear Valley Ski Resort for some of the best skiing and snowboarding in the Sierras, without the crowds. This cabin is beautiful with vaulted ceilings and hardwood floors. It is fun to snuggle, relax in front of the fire place and watch the snow fall outside.
