Whispering Pines-w/ Heat, AC & Pool Access!

This is our second time to this cabin and we enjoyed our stay the same amount. Very quiet and peaceful, felt like we had the forest to ourselves.

Overall we had a very positive experience staying at Whispering Pines. The kitchen is tiny and has no dishwasher, there are limited plating options. Otherwise the kitchen was fairly well appointed. We were glad to have AC as it was hot! The kitchen chairs are falling apart and disintegrating - Time for new dining chairs! Otherwise most everything else was in good working order.

This ended up perfect for us... a couple very minor quibbles: a) kitchen chairs are pretty tore up, b) we wished there was some regular seating for little ones at meal time c) we wished there was a king bed somewhere... but the pros far outweighed the cons: a) Air conditioning! [it was over 100 outside when we stayed] b) comfortable furniture, c) both my boys loved the foosball in the loft, d) rec center passes were a nice addition, e) your choice of firmer or softer mattresses.

Overall, we'd definitely stay here again, unless we needed something for a larger group.

We have been to the Arnold area multiple times and this was by far the best. The cabin was clean and we didn't have to do anything special as far as cleaning instructions! Just clean the dishes, bag the trash and go!

The cabin itself was the perfect size, we had plenty of room to spread out but cozy enough that we could easily have family time playing board games, watching a movie, and of course the family foosball tournament. The deck was perfect to have morning coffee and relax reading the news listening to the sound of the forest.

This has been our favorite cabin of which I am sure we will rent again.

Our trip to the snow had to be rescheduled because of winter storms, and Sheila w/ Sierra Vacation Rentals facilitated the changes. She was super helpful. This cabin was great for our family. The kids enjoyed the upstairs with the foosball table, Bear Valley is nearby, and its the perfect place to work from when everybody is busy playing outside! We will come back!

Kickapoo is a lovely, basic house in a pretty, quiet neighborhood just east of Arnold. The house in fairly private, surrounded by trees, in the Dorrington subdivision.

The beds were comfortable, as was the furniture in the living room. The house was clean. We were there on a very hot weekend, and there was no air conditioning. But, the trees kept the property shaded, and it was quite pleasant sitting on the deck. The house got a bit hot during the day, but cooled off at night with the fans.

The kitchen could use a few more basic items, like spices, bowls, etc. But, overall, had most things you'd need.

We had a lot of fun in the area. The people we encountered were all very friendly, and helpful. The highlights were Lake Alpine, White Pine Lake, and Hinterhaus Distillery.

Cabin was comfortable and clean. Needs some updating but we had a lovely time. The only drawback is the rails on the deck are dangerous and spacing is not current code or even code from ten years ago! Very dangerous for a small child. We were uncomfortable even using the deck and had to gate off the loft. Would not recommend this cabin to anyone with a small child or small dog for that matter.

We enjoyed our stay, lovely spot, nice and quiet, yet close enough to everything we wanted to do. The cabin was clean and stocked fairly well, great deck where we enjoyed several BBQs. Owners/managers were responsive and helpful.

Relaxing, close to events and very peaceful

Great time!! My son's first trip to the snow. We will defiantly return. Thank you
