Our “Little” Giant Sequoia mountain home is named after the sequoia tree in the front yard. This Arnold getaway is only 2-3 hours commute from bay area with new updated furniture and clean house. Enjoy the tranquility of the backyard with spectacular hiking trails within walking distance. The private community lake is perfect for summer fun. We also have a nice 100 projector screen and projector with 5.1 surround sound. We follow Covid 19 related safety regulations.
Spend a day hiking, biking or doing water fun in private community lake and relax in the hot tub at our mountain cabin. Enjoy your drinks on the patio with spectacular views of sequoias, pines and cedars in the huge backyard. Bring out the chef in you and cook a meal in the fully equipped kitchen or just grab dinner from nearby restaurants and unwind with a movie in the entertainment room.
