“The place is a bit more dated than what appears online, and the beds are pretty hard- even the pull-out couch. However, if you’re just looking for a place to crash, it’s fine. Pool & hot tub was nice but the sauna had a foul smell in the room and we had to leave the whole room- maybe because somebody left the sauna on!? Overall I would give it three stars; not overly impressive, but also not bad. Nice parking though and great to have a market just next door.”
“Nicely updated house with well appointed rooms. Grounds lovely and nice for just hanging out. In town location so within walking distance of restaurants, shops, and tasting rooms. Easy parking a plus.”
“Timberline Lodge in Arnold is a nice hotel conveniently located along CA-4. It was very close to Calaveras Big Trees State Park. There are a good number of restaurants catering to different cuisines. Our favorites were Bistro Espresso and Sarafina’s Italian Restaurant. The lodge itself looks newly renovated and well maintained. The amenities met our needs. The only problem we had was with the air conditioning. It was a hot weekend in August with temperature in the 90’s and the a/c wasn’t cooling……
“It's a motel and the location is pretty good. Everything is in walking distance since it's a small town. Yet, the lodge is too old and it's on the main street. You can hear everything, even the snores next door.”
