Reviewer Comments:
This chalet offers a magnificent view of towering trees from the two story windows. It is sparkling clean, attractively furnished and provides multiple sleeping options. We especially appreciated the Big Trees Rec Center Membership which allowed us to relive memories of Water Polo Games. We're looking forward to returning in the future.

Reviewer Comments:
The cabin was very nice and clean, located in a scenic place, close to Calaveras Big Trees. We especially liked the location of the cabin, spacious floor plan, and games to play. Enough space for family to stay and enjoy the nature. The kitchen might need some kitchen countertip appliances, such as blender and toaster, but overall, it is well equipped. Upstairs room is very spacious and has a great view! We loved the cabin and it's location!
