"The realtor office was very organized and friendly. The on line pictures do give this unit a bigger feel. The furniture was well used but over all for a pet friendly unit it worked. Definitely needs a deep cleaning, the coffee pot and stove felt of grease and it was quite odd to have unit owner items in the fridge. "

"This cozy little cabin is a gem amongst the trees! The beds are soft, the kitchen is well equipped and the outside seating areas are absolutely wonderful. The weather was so nice, we were barely inside! Our host was available to us and we had very good communication with her. The neighborhood is peaceful and you can take a walk around Snowshoe lake or have a picnic and wade in the water there. In general, the location is excellent -- just a few miles through Arnold to visit the majestic redwoods...

"This is our second visit the the Bear Valley cabin by the lake. We will be back.The cabin may be the only rental available that has walk down access to the lake, which is one of the main reasons we rented the firt time and a reason we came back.Communication with Molly, the host, is genuinely one of the easiest VRBO communications I've ever had and I appreciate her thoughtfulness, quick answers, willingness to hear suggestions about what the cabin might need, etc. Renting a cabin/VRBO with hosts like Molly make travel life much easier.We will be back."
