Hibernation Hideaway-Privacy abounds!

Welcome to Hibernation Family Hideaway! Secluded and nestled among the trees at the end of a serene cul-de-sac, Hibernation Family Hideaway is a charming dog-friendly chalet cabin in the heart of the Sierras. The living area boasts stunning pine ceilings & a grand rock fireplace (guest to provide firewood), creating a cozy ambiance.

This secluded 2 story mountain cabin is perfect for a quiet getaway. You'll discover 2 bedrooms downstairs plus a master loft with 2 more beds, and a full bathroom on each level. This spacious cabin sleeps 9 comfortably. You'll find level access to parking with exterior steps down to the entrance on a large private lot, yet close to Hwy 4 to get to Bear Valley ski area and more! From the living area walk right out onto the deck - BBQ or just relax and enjoy the trees.

Conveniently located just 30 minutes from Bear Valley Ski Resort and a short 20-minute drive from wine tasting in the quaint town of Murphys. Explore underground caves at Mercer Caverns in Murphys or at Moaning Caves in Vallecito. Don't forget to check out the giant redwood trees at Big Trees State Park, only a 5-minute drive from the cabin.

This cabin is not part of Blue Lake Springs HOA. There is a flight of stairs from the level parking area down to the cabin. There is only room for 2 cars at this cabin.

Cozy spot to make good memories
Overall my family and I had a wonderful stay at the Hibernation Family Getaway and made some great memories. The location is perfect, as we went into town and the Bear Valley Ski Resort daily. The amenities were good, with the exception of not providing a hair dryer. I would recommend that one is provided in the house as its a given now when you stay anywhere, and its really hard to have wet hair in snowy weather! Also, no where in the entire town of Arnold did they sell one, so come prepared :) The only other thing I'll note is the stairway to the entry is a big steep and slippery when icy, so that made it a little tricky for us to get up and down, but as long as you are prepared then you'll be fine.

Great Stay!
This is a fantastic location, and SO secluded! On a court with two other large vacation homes, very private. Took our dog on walks around the neighborhood. Unfortunately, it was raining and we had lightning, but it was very cozy in the cabin!! The heater works great, AND the power went out, but immediately a backup generator turned on!! Will stay here again, just for that reason alone. The power goes out a lot here. The beds are comfy! The kitchen could use a clean-out of old stuff, but everything worked great! The family room was awesome and we even did a brand new puzzle that was up there. Thank you!

The house itself if beautiful. The neighborhood is peaceful. There is something special about wakening up around the trees. I highly recommend this cabin.

Weekend Getaway
We had a relaxing stay at the cabin. We did have a few ideas that would have made our stay even better. We would have liked to have large Tupperware or plastic drinking glasses for our iced tea and soda. Some dish towels would have been immensely helpful. When drying dishes, it was inconvenient to dry them with only paper towels. And we didn't want to use the dishwasher for just a few dishes after having a snack or a dessert. The most important thing was that, as we are all in our 70s, we found the stairs down to the house to be a bit steep for our comfort, especially carrying ice chests and luggage. It might be helpful to future guests if you would include a photo of the steps so people could decide if they wanted to tackle them. Thank you for offering your lovely home for us to use.

Relaxing and fun stay!
This property is nestled away and is quiet with wildlife to watch. Our kids enjoyed watching deer, skunks, birds, chipmunks and squirrels from the deck. The beds are comfy and had everything we needed. We rented a paddleboard and enjoyed Whitepine Lake. We checked out Murphys and the caverns. We will definitely be back! The games are missing some pieces so kids were bummed, but we had brought some, so it was fine!

Great Escape
A nice cabin that fit our family’s needs. It met our expectations, confirming the description in the listing. Located only 4 miles from the Big Tree State Park. The sequoias were awe inspiring. We recommend this as a base for those who want to strike out to appreciate nature and the area’s history.
