About this property
Dardanelle Retreat - 4,200 sqft luxury cabin with gorgeous views!
This is the grandest getaway in Arnold.
A sprawling 4,200 sqft luxury cabin in a premium resort community. There is an additional 3,800 sqft of rich redwood decks. That's 8,000 sqft of usable space!
The decks overlook majestic sugar pine trees at an elevation of 5,200 ft. Every room (including all 5 bedrooms) has private deck access.
Wake up to mesmerizing panoramic mountain & valley views of the gorgeous Stanislaus National Forest. We think we have the best views in all of Arnold! 😊

PLEASE NOTE:
Many other cabins in Arnold advertise a loft or game room as a bedroom. They lack heat/cool & don’t have smoke/CO alarms. They also lack privacy (no doors) making it difficult for multiple families on a vacation.
However, our cabin has 5 full bedrooms without any of the abovementioned issues. We have a separate game room too.

▶︎ Other things to note
Snow Removal:
Arnold can receive a lot of snow within a few minutes. The highways & roads are snow-plowed by the county. This property is close to the highway & main roads, so getting in & out is easy! However, we'll provide you with contact details of local snow plowers if there's heavy snow. Snow plowing service is an additional cost and the guests can pay for the snow plowers directly. Please check the weather conditions before you arrive.
BBQ Grill:
We have a BBQ grill but don't advertise it since we can't provide propane. You may use the grill if you bring your propane. Some local stores like the Big Trees Market in Arnold have propane tanks. Please clean the grill if you use it.
Bugs & Critters:
Our town is surrounded by the Stanislaus National Forest, which has a lot of wildlife. We do routine pest control, landscaping, and cleanings. However, bugs, critters, bats, and cobwebs are inevitable.
