About this property

The Arrow House - Big Tree Village

  • Summary:

    Charming rustic retreat away from it all with great loft, foosball, & cozy deck



    The Space:

    Breathe in the fresh pine and enjoy a warm cup of coffee each morning away from it all in this secluded getaway! Upon arriving at this gorgeous home, guests will fall in love with the cozy atmosphere that is created by the rustic wood accents, the wood stove, and high vaulted ceilings. Though there is plenty to do nearby, there is nothing like simply staying in for a day with a good book as the kids play foosball in the loft. When mealtimes come around, warm homecooked recipes can be made with ease on the gas range and modern appliances in the fully equipped kitchen. Though cell phone service is spotty here, there is no need to be disconnected, as this home is equipped with free WiFi which will come in handy when guests want to share vacation highlights with loved ones back home! Shoot hoops out on the basketball hoop in front of the home. Regardless of the season, this home will foster memories to last a lifetime!



    What's nearby:

    Though you will have your own private oasis to enjoy, this home is still within a short drive of fun activities and attractions you won't want to miss. For a bit of summer excitement, Big Trees Village recreation center has spectacular pools and activities for a minimal fee. Plus, there's plenty of hiking, biking, kayaking, wine-tasting, or caving in nearby Murphy's. Wintertime guests will also be in paradise, as the will have the slopes of Bear Valley Ski Resort to look forward to just 22 miles north! For a day trip to even more beauty, make your way to the world-famous Yosemite Valley that is just over 100 miles away, as it is well worth the drive!

Nice and clean with a great loft for kids!

We had a great weekend ski trip facilitated by this house. It was very nice and clean, well equipped and the kids loved the loft upstairs. It was our family of four but next time we would have a second family join us and have all the kiddos stay in the loft.

Highly Recommend

We had a fantastic stay at this charming A-frame cabin over the long MLK weekend. The location was perfect, with great proximity to Bear Valley for skiing and outdoor adventures. The cabin itself was quaint, rustic, and well-equipped, offering everything we needed for a cozy getaway. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the essentials, and we especially appreciated the thoughtful extras, like a saucer and snow play items for the kids. There was even a great selection of books, which made for some lovely downtime by the fire. This place truly had something for everyone in the family. Highly recommend!

Definitely will be back!

This place is a perfect place to go to get away. Very peaceful, and fully equipped! I am used to having to bring my own items when staying away, but to my surprise the kitchen had everything I needed already including seasonings! Place was very clean, handbook on how to work everything as well as where to go was very convenient. Got lucky and it snowed while we stayed so we were able to take the sled out front and have fun. The big windows, fireplace, etc. make this the perfect get away. Perfect place to go to relax, bring some board games, s’mores, cook, and explore around! Definitely will come back!

So lovely!

We were very pleasantly surprised that the house had everything we needed. The pots and pans were of good quality, baking items, large coffee pot. Even a dishwasher! The bathroom downstairs has a heater!!! There were even little shampoo and conditioner and soaps for us. Bonus… there was a full sized washer and dryer upstairs! It was wonderful. Comfy, homey, and so peaceful. Would definitely recommend.

Nice cabin.

Clean, and very nice location. If you visit in the summer bring a couple fans, because there was no a/c. Besides that had a great time.

Clean, comfortable and cozy

The cabin was spotless when we arrived. Firewood was well stocked and the surrounding areas were lovely. We loved the accessibility of the market and enjoyed a delicious meal at one of the recommended places...though I can't remember the name. We would absolutely stay here again!

Relaxing, quiet time in the mountains

We loved the location of the cabin with so many things to do in close proximity. It was wonderful to wake up in the morning and cook breakfast and dinner while looking out the big windows. The best part was escaping to this mountain retreat that had a super quiet neighborhood and the squirrels were a joy to watch. Would come back again

Fabulous Cabin!

This property was outstanding! We loved absolutely everything about our stay. The property was easy to find, close to area attractions, and so peacefully quiet. The kitchen was well equipped, there was everything we needed to prepare breakfast, lunch and dinner. I only wish there was a bit more silverware as we found ourselves washing by hand for the next meal (we're a family of five). There was no liquid dishwash soap, for the pans that needed hand washing, but we picked up a bottle at the local market and left for the next guests. The kids loved all of the games the house had to offer, and enjoyed playing basketball. Other reviews suggested bringing fans so we did, but turns out we didn't need them. Both bedrooms, and the loft had their own fans plus there was an extra box fan that we used in the family room. I'm so glad to have found this gem of a place, we are already planning our next visit!

Be Warned

The cabin is ok on the surface but be warned that they apparently have frequent septic tank backups(they have signs in the bathrooms warning). Our trip was cut short after one night, it only took two showers to cause raw sewage to start coming up from the drains. The worst part is the lack of response from the owner. We had to cut our rare vacation short and it’s now three weeks later and still no refund or response. Super disappointed in Vacasa and would not recommend this place.

2008 Tv needs to be replaced.

We have stayed in the area before and enjoyed it, however before leaving for our trip we email VRBO and ask if there was cable tv. I received an email back stating they would get back to us, but no one did. We arrived a little after 4:00pm and spent the next 6-7 hours trying to get the tv to work. I called Vacasa phone numbers head housekeeper Cora that evening and left a message and got no response. We went to bed then tried the next day to contact Cora and left a second message, no reply. I saw that they were a few other numbers so i called Valerie and Lori called me back and came over to see if she could help but Lori could not fix it. Valerie kept in contact and Stacy left a message also. Valerie stated Stacy was going to call the owner, but we waited and nothing. Hats off to Lori who came out to the house and Valerie for staying in contact even if she was on a webinar. So we watched Netflix upstairs in the loft each sitting at the edge of twin beds. The living rooms tv was stuck on Roku and we could not get it to move to Netflix, so we did not sit in the living room to relax and watch our movies. The bedroom downstairs mattress was horrible and the bed frame squeeky with every turn or trip to the bathroom. We tried to make the best of it and enjoyed our walks but we wanted to relax and enjoy a movie on the sofa, not on twin beds being in our 60’s its hard to sit up without something to lean back on, because of the roof slants we would of hit our heads. Wish there was an updated tv.
