My priorities for my visit to Arnold were pet-friendly, king bed, with A/C, close to town, and that’s exactly what I got. The host Manny was very responsive- even started the A/C an hour prior to my arrival with my vacation coinciding with a heatwave. This was a perfect place to use as a base for exploring up and down HWY 4 and everything Arnold has to offer. Hope to be back soon.

Beautiful property and house in a beautiful area. Good restaurants and grocery store nearby, and 3 miles to the state park. House is well equipped, clean, appears new inside, bed was comfortable, and the host very attentive and responsive. I intend to return. Since the new normal is higher temperatures in the summer, Arnold town was no exception - 90 degrees during the day (JULY 2026) - a/c could cool the house to about 75 degrees. Internet was fast, and I found it easy to work while I was there.

Excellent cabin for a family
We stayed at the Arnold's cabin during our family trip to Bear Valley and enjoyed it very much. It's newly remodeled, very cozy, clean and comfortable. The host was very responsive and replied to our emails within an hour or two. We would definitely stay there again!

Our stay at Arnold’s Cozy Cabin was perfect! The house is beautiful and nestled among the pines in a quiet neighborhood surrounded by the kindest neighbors. It was a convenient drive to the supermarket (less than 5 minutes), coffee shop, Big Trees, White Pines Lake, and Murphy’s were all a short drive away too, which made our stay very memorable and enjoyable. Thank you Manny and team for the wonderful stay and your responsiveness to all our needs!

This cabin was perfect for our family of 6. It had everything we needed and more! Great location, perfect to hike the Arnold rim trail, head to the snow easily, and an amazing yard for our dog and kids. The huge table was great for meals and games/ puzzles. And the coffee table that turns into a casino was a huge hit! It’s a clean, well stocked, carefully thought out home. Highly recommend.

Amazing home in a wonderful location
Beautiful home nestled in the woods. The home had all the amenities you could want and was in pristine condition! Our entire family enjoyed it. The location was fabulous - just a few blocks from a lovely grocery store, yet not too far away from Spicer Snow-Park and Bear Valley. Highly recommend!

We recently stayed at the cozy cabin, and it did indeed feel very cozy and homey. The home is even more beautiful in person! Even though our visit was during a rainstorm, it was still a very pleasant stay. The owner was super easy to reach and really accommodating! Just wanted to mention that some of the mattresses and pillows for my guests weren't as comfy as they expected. I slept very comfortably on the master suite mattress but wasn't a big fan of the flat pillows. We had a wonderful time staying at the cozy cabin! We're really looking forward to visiting again when it gets a little warmer. Thanks so much for having us!
