Pet Friendly 2 BR + Loft , Wifi , Sleeps 8 | Ski Chalet in Arnold

3 Bedroom Ski Chalet in Arnold
Welcome to cabin.BLS!
Are you looking for a comfortable place where you and your family/friends can relax and not worry about messing up picture perfect rooms? This might be the place for you.
This cabin has been in our family since it was built in the late 70’s. We’ve replaced the roof, but otherwise it’s exactly as built – and we are making it available to you in all it’s midcentury “early-garage-sale-chic” splendor. This is a rustic cabin located in the Stanislaus National Forest - there are bears, foxes, deer, squirrel, skunk, coyotes, bobcats just outside the door. Please expect the charm of a late 70's family-built cabin.
There’s a cassette deck, comfy couches and easy chairs, a deck with bbq and an outside dining table with umbrella and chairs. It’s the kind of cabin where family furniture rotates out of our homes and into the cabin.
Not only can this cabin sleep 8 people, but the table seats 12. More if you want to squish. You won’t have to serve dinner in shifts or on paper plates or drink wine out of plastic cups. We have enough cutlery, plates, bowls, glasses and wine glasses to seat and serve your whole crowd. Plus, the plates match (most of them anyway!), and the dishwasher is big.
Our family loves to cook so the kitchen is well outfitted – blenders, 60’s era waffle maker, microwave, coffee maker (one carafe for octane, the other for decaf), ice cream maker, etc. The rule is that anything edible left in the kitchen is yours to eat, just please take anything perishable with you when you leave.
Is it important to you that the towels match in your vacation rental? Well, none of ours do. But they’re all cotton.
We may be old school, but some of us like to move up here for working vacations, so we recognize the importance of 70 Mbps internet, steady wifi and the value of a good baseball/soccer/football game on Comcast. There’s a 55in Ultra High Definition SmartTV in the living room (Netflix, anyone?) and a PS2 so you can play games or watch DVDs. Upstairs in the loft there’s a 32 in SmartTV with a GameCube and other vintage game systems.
In the wintertime, the wood burning stove keeps things warm as well as some portable space heaters.
