Stanislaus National Forest Inns

Calaveras Big Trees CA State Park protects 2 groves of giant sequoia trees that are 300 ft tall with 25 foot diameter trunks. The giant trees were discovered in 1852. The location first gained notoriety from a sequoia called the Discovery Tree that was cut down in 1853 and 24 foot diameter sections were shipped and exhibited in San Francisco, Cape Horn, and New York City. It was originally 363 feet tall, but now is only a 3' platform base where it originally stood.

The posted picture was our hike through the South Grove area (a 3 mile hike with scattered Giant Trees). The colors and spring undergrowth of the forest was so green and vibrant. The beauty was unexpected and we plan to return in the Autumn when the undergrowth is changing colors.

Top Stanislaus National Forest Hotel Reviews

Timberline Lodge - Arnold - Bear Valley

10/10 Excellent

"This was an exceptionally quaint, well run, and peaceful place to visit. Plus the location next to so many good restaurants and Hinterhaus was ideal for the capstone to a day in the woods or snow."

Double Decker Cabin Retreat – Peaceful Getaway in Arnold

10/10 Excellent

"Our family had a wonderful stay in Arnold. This home had everything we needed and more. Super comfortable beds, plenty of pillows, coffee and games! Easy striking distance to ski at Bear. Very walkable neighborhood too!!!"

Cozy Cottage near Pinecrest/Dodge Ridge WiFi

10/10 Excellent

"The cabin was very clean, and everything was all set for our stay. Very impressed with the care they’ve taken in keeping everything well appointed. The site is a little cramped with other cabins very nearby, so it’s more of a subdivision feel rather than a cabin, but for the purpose of our trip it was perfect despite that."
