Big trees

This was a nostalgia filled weekend for me. Cedar loft was a wonderful nesting spot in the big trees. Nothing quite matches the song of the big trees.

Fabulous Mountain Retreat!

Camp Connell and the area where this cabin is was just what I was looking for. It was quiet and peaceful and definitely felt so comfortable because I was staying among the trees. The hosts were amazing. They handled everything seamlessly. Definitely a 5 star experience!

Peaceful Cabin in the Woods

I absolutely loved this cabin! The host went above and beyond to make their cabin comfortable for their guests. Every room in the cabin felt cozy and it was so easy to relax in a space that was impeccably clean. I was also impressed with the coffee/tea bar they had set up for their guests. The outdoor area had a large deck and in back of the cabin was a fire pit area. I loved coming back to the cabin after the time I spent at Beaver Creek in Calaveras Big Trees State Park and taking a hike around White Pines Lake in Arnold. I will be returning to Cedar Loft for many years to come. I found the perfect cabin to spend time alone or with several friends. Looking forward to my next trip!

Relaxing get away

The place is in a nice, quiet location not far from Big Trees State Park. The cabin had everything we needed and was warm and cozy. The kids loved making s’mores at the fire pit and playing with the fun games that are provided. We took the loft room and it was oh-so-comfortable! I’d definitely book again.

This place was perfect. It had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing few nights with our dogs in the forest. They loved it there immediately. The place is really clean….like really clean. That made it easy to relax. Stored blankets in a closet, smelled amazingly fresh. We hope we will be able to visit again. THANK YOU

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Property was easy to use, had more than basic daily amenities covered, parking was easy and finding it was easy. It’s a little further outside of Murphy than we prefer to stay, simply because we enjoy visiting the wineries and it’s about 30 minutes from downtown Murphy’s. The property did not require a lot from us in terms of check out. We booked via Expedia versus booking directly through VRBO, so I think we probably had less communication from The host than I normally have through VRBO. Not a big deal, but it would have been nice to have had an open line of communication to able to tap into how to access things like the community pool (there were no written directions anywhere.) overall great property!

Peaceful cabin among the trees

We had a great weekend staying here. We spent one day kayaking and swimming at the nearby Utica/ Union Reservoir and explored the Big Trees State park. There is also pretty easy access to the North fork of the Stanislaus River. There are some nice swimming ares, but the river is moving fast right now from the snow melt. Nevertheless, our pups loved it. The cabin was clean and well stocked. The deck was great for lounging and our pups loved it as well. It's located in a very peaceful neighborhood. We would definitely stay here again.

Smart TVs, fully stocked kitchen, access to the pool, and proximity to great lakes made for a great vacation. We luckily had great weather and did not require AC and the fans were sufficient.

Perfect Cabin in a Beautiful Setting

My family (2 adults, 3 kids age 17, 13, and 10 and 2 dogs) had the best time at The Cedar Loft. I wanted a place where we could stay put to enjoy the snow and this was perfect! The kids loved playing with the provided sleds and snowboards on the little hills around the house, and I loved not having to haul extra equipment or travel anywhere else for snow play. The cabin was easy to get to, and so comfortable and well stocked with everything we needed. Next time we come, I’ll be sure not to overpack because coffee, tea, spices, and more were provided. The hosts were very quick to respond to questions before and during our stay. We will definitely book again!

This was the perfect spot for our family to get together for New Year’s Eve!! We had an infant and a fur-baby and the cabin was well stocked with things for both children!
