Family-friendly vacation rentals in Arnold

Very lovely stay. Definitely would return!

The place is great, better than the photos actually! It has everything you’ll ever need, such as pots, cooking utensils, and cleaning supplies, and everything is very clean. However, one little con is that the internet is a bit unstable, no matter if we’re using cellular service or the purchased wifi.

we loved our at Belinda, we had a raining so had an evening just hanging out,it was very comfortable, looking farward to staying again when we can sit on the beautiful porch and use the hot tub. Paulette and Ed

We had a great time during our 2 night stay at this cabin. My friends and I were pleased with the state of the house - the bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, and the kitchen had everything we needed. The furniture may not have been the most comfy or modern, but it was homey. And it was nice to be not be stressed about pristine furniture with our 2 dogs hanging out. This was one of the best sized hot tubs I've seen at an airbnb, 4 sturdy sized adults fit in it with plenty of elbow room. We ended up getting a little snowed in so we didn't get to go out much beyond the surrounding yard, but there were a couple charming bars in the area, and some cute restaurants in the nearby town. Would absolutely come back to explore, wish we could have stayed longer!

Monique, thank you so very much for the most amazing stay. We loved every minute of it of it. Your space is a dream—it was carefully planned to have guests have a most enjoyable stay. We didn’t have to go anywhere as all we needed indoors and outdoors are already in the property! Thanks again and till next year! We are so grateful for being so thorough in your instructions, for being so flexible for us and accommodating our requests when you can 👌 all the best to you! Highly recommended! 10/10. Beyond our expectations where they even have provisions of things you need in the kitchen, bathrooms and all. The game room was a room packed with fun and love the hot tub. We also loved the wrap Around porch both levels. Looking forward to coming again… and on an annual basis!

We stayed in Ben’s place for three nights in February so we can explore the snow with our dog. Arnold is a bit dormant this time of the year (we usually come in the summer). It’s a quiet place. It was clean and comfortable. It’s not new or modern but everything worked. We used the fire place one night it was night and also the Jacuzzi. The kitchen has the basics you need, and the bathroom too. A lot of towels and they are soft. Beds are comfortable. It’s very dark at night so getting in and out the first time was a bit challenging (we arrived at 10pm), we used a flashlight. The backyard is huge. It would be really nice in the spring. The price was fair and the internet was fast and reliable.

We loved our stay and Nick was a responsive and kind host. Was a short trip but we felt very cozy. The home is beautiful and you are close to lots of amazing outdoor experiences. Has all the appliances and tools you might need to make dinner! And extremely reasonable and understandable check out instructions.

Loved the location. I wanted somewhere to unwind and this was it!!! So quiet and peaceful. I could smell the pine trees. Saw some deer, a squirrel and some wild turkeys. Very convenient to downtown Sonora, Twain Harte and Jamestown. I may try to be back during the winter to see all the snow. Lots of room in the house. There were just two of us but it can acommodate a group.

Amazing stay at this adorable cabin! Check-in was easy, I appreciated the keypad lock for easy entry on arrival. We brought our little dogs and they loved running around the fully fenced yard. The house was warm and rooms were comfortable. Rob was responsive and helpful. Nice location with trees all around but plenty of neighbors so you don't feel isolated. Nickel slot machine and pool table were so fun! The bathrooms are very nice. The only small issue we encountered, was that we got a little lost arriving to the house on the first night, due to our late arrival and it being dark so we couldn't see street signs/ markers clearly. I recommend using Google Maps to arrive, Apple Maps took us to the wrong location. Looking back I could see that Rob's directions were very accurate, I just misread them. The house is right in the area where Kewin Mill Rd. and W. Brookside Drive connect, right near Estralita Dr. if that's helpful to anyone. Thanks for everything and for the lovely stay Rob!

Really nice location with river access and fishable pools (although we got skunked on a difficult winter attempt). Home is a little dated, but adequate for our stay. One of the upstairs room is not completely enclosed, but has an opening to view/hear the living room area. The windows make for a stunning view. Overall the house kept us warm and allowed us to explore the Strawberry/Pinecrest area. We were lucky to have a dusting for snow during our stay. Parking is located street side and there is no private driveway to park your car. Location was really nice for us to access the snow play parts and Dodge Ridge. There is also a nice OHV type of trail at the end of the street if you are interested in a leisure hike.

A great location for exploring the gold rush area, Highways 49, 108 and 4. Easy access, great for our dog, and a cozy place to spend the night

We had a great time staying at the cabin. It’s rustic and charming. We were happy not to have any snow, but we were able to easily travel up to Bear Valley for skiing and sledding. There are lots of nearby amenities and just a short drive to the grocery store and restaurants. The cabin was very warm and the kitchen was well stocked. We enjoyed watching the DVDs and playing with the games. The beds are also super comfortable. We would definitely stay there again.

This sweet cottage was more magical than we even expected! We were surprised by all of the thoughtful touches, the decor, excellent cooking utensils, coffee, snacks, and so much more. It felt like we were staying in a secret tree house and the patio created the most calming space for outdoor meals and relaxing. The location was quiet, very convenient and just the right size for two. We can't wait to come back and enjoy this space again!

The Shed is a super charming and cozy space in a serene setting. The property is perfect for unwinding and is also a great base for exploring the wonderful attractions in the area, including the town of Murphys and the amazing Big Trees State Park. The hosts, Bev and Rod, were extremely welcoming, friendly and more than happy to engage in conversation. Highly recommended and would definitely stay again!

Pauline’s place was so cozy and just what I needed for my weekend in Sonora. She was very helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend her place.

This A-Frame was sweetly decorated and very clean. We appreciated all of the extra hooks around the house to hang wet clothes and towels. It was a perfect place for my son and I to stay before and after our day at Bear Valley!

Jeff and Gina were great hosts. Responsive and friendly. Close to Yosemite. The kids loved the game room, beds were comfortable. The kitchen is stocked with everything you’d need.

We had a great stay at Connie’s cabin. Our trip was two couples, each with a toddler. The space was very well set up to allow us to put each kid down and still have board game nights after they were asleep. The cabin had a very lived in and homey vibe - which is what we were looking for! You could definitely tell the family has gotten lots of great use out of the house over the years!

The geodome is a unique stay. The cabin was comfortable and and well-styled. An added bonus is that there's plastic kid-friendly bowls, plates, and cups so we didn't need to worry about our young ones breaking anything. The open layout was ideal for our family to socialize while cooking and there's a cute play area upstairs with toys for the kids. The neighborhood was quiet and we were able to soak in the stars a night next to the fire pit. Maria was super responsive to all of my messages (responded in a few minutes), which was helpful when I couldn't turn on the washer/dryer since the breaker had tripped. Maria helped me locate the electric panel to flip the breaker and there wasn't any further nuisance tripping. We enjoyed staying at Maria and Jared's geodome and would come back again!

Beautiful cabin in Arnold! Super cozy and every amenity you could need. My kids did not want to leave.

One-of-a-kind home (two of a kind, I guess, if you count the CO version) made an unforgettable experience for our family (5 adults, 3 kids and 2 pups)!! Thoughtful consideration seeped in every nook and cranny! 1) brilliant open layout strikes perfect balance between having a corner/plenty of room for everyone, yet still with a lovely sense of togetherness; 2) exceptionally well-equipped and spacious kitchen; 3) play closet with enough toys and board games to keep our 2yo toddler and pre-teen girls equally entertained; 4) winter gear to borrow -- sleds, snowshoes, etc. -- kids spent hours playing in the hill across the street (within sight from the cabin). In terms of virtually every amenity -- from quality kitchenware, comfy beds, toiletries, extra blankets, towels, spare friggin' batteries -- the Chesa Madrisa was a couple notches above what one should be able to reasonably expect from a vacation rental! Hillary was an absolute joy to communicate -- we can't wait to be back!

Beautiful Place, loved it. The kitchen has everything you need for your stay.

This cabin was amazing. My family and I had so much fun there. Unfortunately, there was no snow as we expected, but a 30-minute drive to Bear Valley was not bad to have fun. It ended up being a good thing since we didn't always have to deal with snow. I will come back!

We had a wonderful stay at Mike’s place. It is in a very beautiful location and very easy to find. Our family enjoyed walks around the lake, grilling on the patio , and gathering around the outdoor fireplace. It is a short drive away from snow parks where our kids loved the sledding. The cabin has a beautiful rustic look that we found comfortable and inviting. Highly recommend.
