Splendid!!!

Can’t say enough about how great our stay was at Dave’s Den. Super clean inside, plenty of space for two families with big kids and room to spare. The bonus room with the poker table, pool table, darts, and drum set were so awesome, and not just for the kids. It’s about a 35 minute drive to Bear Valley for skiing. Leaving by 8:15 gets you to the slopes by 9:00 in plenty of time. Dave was extremely communicative and even left us surprise welcome treats. We would definitely come back. Thanks for everything, Dave.

Great Stay & Great Host!

David could not have been a better host! He was understanding and very communicative throughout the entire process. The cabin was thoughtfully furnished with so many games, kids toys, and even an electronic drum set. Our two boys loved playing with all the toys, and the legos and building sets kept them busy for days. We also used the winter tubes and sleds provided by David to go sledding. We will definitely go back next year and are already looking forward to it!

Excellent Chill Pad

Dave was super communicative. Very easy to deal with, very helpful and available. We didn’t need him for anything at all, from the time we booked until we were in the cabin he was available. He even checked in to make certain all was well. And it was, even better than the listing suggested.

Great for families!

My family loved this home! The area is beautiful, there's lots to do nearby. We went to the recreation center for a bit to swim but it was too crowded. What else would you expect on labor day weekend though, right? However, the house was so fun that the kids didn't even care! They hardly wanted to leave. The game room was a hit, there were activities and games for all ages. We had ages 5-73 and there was plenty to do for everyone. Everything was very clean and beautiful and the kitchen was fully stocked with the essentials. All in all, it was a wonderful labor day weekend and we can't wait to go back sometime!

Wonderful family summer vacation

We had a wonderful summer vacation in this house. It is in a very quiet and cozy location with incredibly friendly people. A community pool with free access for renters is a 10-minute walk away. White Pines Lake, which has a sandy beach, playground, and basketball/tennis courts, is just a 15-minute drive away. Lake Alpine and Spicer Meadow Reservoir are about a 40-minute drive away, but they are worth a visit for those who love exploring rocky islands. Calaveras Big Trees Park and many trails are nearby. The house was very clean and well-prepared for our arrival. In the kitchen, you will find all the necessary appliances and dishes, including a coffee maker, dishwasher, and an oven with an air fryer. Everything is in perfect condition, so cooking was a pleasure! The loft has a huge space filled with games for everyone. All the bedrooms have new beds, and the bathrooms are fully equipped with all necessary accessories. Note that the internet is quite weak during business hours, and no coverage from AT&T or T-Mobile. There is no AC, but even when the forecast says 95°F outside, the house only warms up to 80°F. The owner responded quickly to our messages, and our stay was hassle-free. We really liked it, so we will definitely come back.

Why they chose this property

This neighborhood has cabins that are larger than Arnold, and further apart. Camp Connell is slightly higher elevation than Arnold and stays cooler, it also will get more snow in the Winter

Big Trees Village is a big amenity - there are 10 passes for the guest. You can walk their or short drive. They have two pools, all sorts of courts and games and picnic area. Great place to cool off.
