LIVING ROOM & DINING ROOM The open living room/dining room area is a lovely place to spend evenings looking out the cathedral ceiling windows, curled up in front of the wood stove, or relaxing in front of the Smart TV. The DINING ROOM table seats eight. The KITCHEN has a dishwasher, microwave, gas range, oven, refrigerator, toaster, and coffee maker, and is equipped with plenty of pots and pans, dishes, silverware, and accessories.

Note for LARGE GROUPS: We think our chalet is most comfortable for groups of 8 or fewer -- plenty of sleeping options and room to spread out. However, we can sleep up to 11, although it will be snug. Also, due to the extra wear and tear, especially on the septic and water usage, we charge an extra-person fee for groups over 8 guests (automatically added to the quote). We do not live locally but are available by phone, email, or through the app. Our wonderful cleaner is available on-location for immediate needs. SEPARATE RENTAL AGREEMENT Immediately after booking, we'll send a quick link to sign our standard rental agreement (must be completed within 48 hours). TRASH REMOVAL FEE ($150): For your convenience, we have installed a bear box with both a trash and recycling can. Trash day is every MONDAY morning and recycling is picked up every other MONDAY. We installed the bear box in the hopes that you won't have to take your trash out with you. But we obviously can't guarantee that the cans will be empty when you arrive. At checkout, please take any trash that does not fit in the bear box with you to the local dump. There is a convenient free trash dump on your way out of town in Avery (more directions/instructions provided after booking). If you choose to leave overflow trash INSIDE THE CABIN or INSIDE THE GARAGE, we will charge a $150 trash removal fee because we will have to pay someone to take it to the dump. If all of your trash fits in the bear box, there will be no charge. EV CHARGING FEE (per charging station) We charge $0.50/kWh for charging. Depending on your booking platform we will either charge the credit card we have on file or request the payment through the listing site after checkout. WEATHER AND OUTAGES: No refunds for storms, poor regional air quality, or weather-related outages (Comcast, PG&E, etc). In the winter we strongly encourage you to drive a 4-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) vehicle and/or be experienced with tire chains. We encourage you to stay informed as best you can about weather forecasts and any planned electric utility outages. The cabin has an automatic generator to supply power to the house during a power outage. The generator will not, however, maintain broadband internet or cable television if the Comcast substations go down due to a widespread power outage. We may have an emergency internet workaround, but that is not guaranteed. We do the best we can to provide you with full amenities, but rural mountain life has its challenges! We encourage you to consider purchasing a separate low-cost travel insurance policy that can provide you coverage for last-minute cancellations. As part of the Evergreen Dorrington booking process, we offer you the option to purchase trip insurance from a 3rd party provider. CELL PHONE COVERAGE Please note: cell phone reception is limited in the Arnold/Dorrington area. VERIZON (and its partners like Tracfone, Xfinity Mobile) tends to be the only provider that works. For this reason, we provide a landline phone.

We had an awesome stay. The home was very comfortable and everything was just as described. The game room was such a hit with the kids and adults. The host was very friendly, and responded quickly. The host offered a house guide website that is very informative and well done. My whole family had a great time and we got to use the offered pass to visit Calaveras Big Tree State Park. We would happily stay again, I highly recommend this place.

We decided on this cabin for our three teenage kids, my elderly mom and my husband and I. it was the perfect amount of space the game room was very fun. We also enjoyed the pool and other amenities. Great for teenagers, college kids, and adults with a lot of energy. The big trees are just down the road with Murphys and Angels Camp a 30 minute drive away for fun shopping, food, and wine tasting. The local bar and grill in Dorington is also delicious. White Pine Lake is perfect for a hot afternoon. We stayed three nights in the summer and could've stayed 4 and still had stuff to do. The cabin is clean and well equiped to meet everyone's needs. Highly recommend!
