IMPORTANT: Separate RENTAL AGREEMENT and SECURITY DEPOSIT ($250) Immediately after booking you will receive a link to a separate Rental Agreement from Evergreen Dorrington Chalet. This agreement must be e-signed in order for the booking to take effect. In addition, we require a separate security deposit credit card hold of $250, released within 5 days after check-out. Submission of the credit card is a requirement of Evergreen Dorrington Chalet, separate from any requirements of Airbnb. TRASH REMOVAL FEE ($150): Like many cabins in the area, we do not have regular trash pickup and we, therefore, require guests to dispose of their own trash either by taking it home or to the local dump on their way out of town. If you choose to leave trash behind we will withhold a $150 trash removal fee from your security deposit or as a payment request through the booking platform. This fee is waived for bookings that check out on either Wednesdays or Thursdays or on days when the dump, is closed). There is a convenient free trash dump on your way out of town in Avery (more directions/instructions provided after booking). EV CHARGING FEE 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 app after checkout. PET POLICY: You are welcome to bring along up to two well-behaved, house-trained dogs. We charge a flat $125 for up to two pets. Please describe your furry friends and their behavior/personality when you book! 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* available for your use.

The cabin was clean, comfortable, and has all the amenities you can expect, and way more. The back up generator provided uninterrupted power and worked flawlessly.
The location is right where we wanted to be. Loved everything about it.
Chelsea was proactive, letting us know about the power outage in the area (thanks to the generator, we didn’t even realize the power was out). She was very responsive to any questions, both before our trip, and during.
The guide provided was very helpful.
We will return!

What a wonderful house. Access was really easy for my mom who uses a walker and my dad who is 93. Everything from the driveway into the house and then the kitchen, dining room, family room, bedrooms and bathroom were all on level ground. Every possible amenity in the kitchen, day use passes for the state park and sno-park, bikes, kayaks and video games were all available. Plus all switches were labeled and there were nightlights so nobody stumbled in the dark. My sister used the 220V charger for her car. This time of year the roads, lakes and parks were empty and the locals seemed genuinely happy to have visitors. Awesome!

This is the second time our family stayed in this cabin. We love the game room above the garage. We just send the boys out there and us adults can enjoy the peace and quiet. There is so much for them to do out there: video games, a real PacMan stand alone video machine, air hocky, fuzball, TV with movies, etc. There is even a bathroom up there. The property has everything you would ever need to enjoy your stay. It was very clean when we arrived. Even though we did not need it for this stay, we do like the fact that it has air conditioning. We also like how environmentally friendly the cottage is. They supply bamboo toilet paper and paper towels and there is an EV charging station.
Our family highly recommends this cabin for families.

Our first stay was earlier this summer. We loved it so much that we decided to hook there again for a winter experience. So happy that we did. The large windows captured the snowfall and it was so cozy. We cooked every night, everything that you could possibly need was in the kitchen. The kids had a blast in the game room and we appreciated the short drive to Bear Valley to snowboard. Chelsea is a gracious and accommodating host. We will return again in the summer for sure!

I have stayed in many different cabins all around Arnold over the last 10 years, and I have found my favorite! This is such a wonderful place. The cabin has big windows for tree viewing, a great living room and dining room table, with plenty of room for everyone to hang out, a fully stocked kitchen and all of the necessary amenities to make your stay perfect. I stayed in the cabin with my 14 year old son and his friend and my 75 year old father. We all enjoyed playing ping pong in the game room and playing games at the big dining room table. While we were there, it rained for a day, so we spent the whole day inside, moving from the game room to the main house and we had a blast. When it wasn't raining, we enjoyed hiking in Big Trees and appreciated the guest pass that got us into the park. Overall, everything about the cabin was great - it was very clean, very thoughtfully set up and very welcoming. We will definitley be coming back!

Great place and great location
I can’t say how much the place has saved me on its game room. Kids went nuts about it. The place is very cozy and has plenty of supplies. One thing I may complain is that there is a typo on its addresses, so it took us some time to find the right place. Thanks for the online direction instructions and the address wasn’t too off for GPS to find. There is no cellphone signal, so couldn’t contact the owner. But other than that, I would highly recommend this place to stay.

Awesome house in the mountains!
Had a great time at Dorrington. The house was well equipped with everything we could have ever needed, including sleds, a BBQ, and all kitchen basics. The house was clean, beds were comfy, and Chelsea was super responsive.

We were so pleased with our stay and so appreciative of the great communication with the hosts. The cabin is cozy, well equipped, ( loved all the convenient charging cords) and a great location for what we wanted. Our 3 year old grandson had a blast and it was so fun to see him experience snow for the first time. Our dog, Rugie, also saw snow for the first time and he was very excited to find a dog box full of doggy goodies and even doggy bowls! Additionally he finally met a dog toy that he couldn't destroy in 5 minutes, That red bone is awesome.
The "library" and games were wonderful and my daughter-in-law ( from Brazil) was introduced to PacMan for the first time. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and we were so happy to spend time together and also have our space.
My only suggestion would be to have a King size bed in one of the rooms. ( after 36+ years of marriage, we need a little more room.)
Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us and my daughter-in-law is already talking about going again next year.

The house felt like home as soon as we walked in the door. It had at least one of everything you’ll ever need. Every detail was taken care of with a note or label, which made things so easy. It was clean and quiet too. The game room was spectacular.

We had a lovely stay here and it was the perfect quick getaway from the Bay Area to play in the snow. We do enjoyed using the extra gear in the garage and the close location to the sno-park. Hope to come back again.

The place was really tailored to their guests. Easy reservation process, check in and check out. There were also many different chargers available for many electronics which makes things convenient. We went during the winter and the kids had a blast in the snow making their own sliding trails. The game room was enjoyed by the kids and adults alike!

Post New Years Stay at Evergreen
We visited in early January for a change of scenery and some fun in the snow. Our family has visited the Arnold/Bear Valley area for many years, and Evergreen was by far the cleanest and best equipped property we have experienced. The description online were very accurate and the place just felt warm & cozy. It was a great home base for us. We particularly enjoyed the fireplace and well equipped kitchen.
If the description looks attractive and the home meets your needs, we strongly recommend it. You will not be disappointed.

I visited this place with friends. We really enjoyed the space. The kitchen is well-appointed and cooking was easy. There were plenty of beds and space for everyone. We enjoyed the proximity to Calaveras Big Trees State Park, White Pines Lake, and the pool access. It was nice to sit on the balcony and look at all of the trees.
Chelsea was super friendly and responsive to our questions throughout our stay. I won't hesitate to stay here again if I'm in the area.

This spot was exactly what we needed -- clean, comfortable, and close to the state park. The deck and grill were perfect for an outdoor summer dinner, and the kitchen was well stocked with cookware. The host was very responsive and gave good tips on hikes, swimming spots, and places to eat in the area. Would book again!

Our family loved everything about Evergreen. Our hosts thought about every detail possible and made our stay wonderful. There is a game room that our family enjoyed evenings playing ping pong and Wii, a reading nook with books for every member of our family, a beautiful kitchen, a perfect deck and living room to relax - even a dog bowl and blanket for our pup! It was the perfect place to get away from the city, and right near hiking and great restaurants. We appreciated the thoughtfulness in every detail and can’t wait to come back!

So relaxing!
We had a wonderful stay at Evergreen. The house was spotlessly clean and supplied with everything we needed and more. I appreciated the ample supply of small conveniences, like soap, shampoo and conditioner, food storage containers, paper towels and nightlights.
The kids (ages 6-12) appreciated the play room and the loft. They were so busy with puzzles, game room and digging in the left over snow (mid April), that we barely saw them in the main cabin.
Got some skiing in, and visited the amazing Sequoias in Calaveras Big Tree Park. Sad to leave, and looking forward to returning in the summer, when we plan to check out the nearby lakes.
Chelsea, the owner, was wonderfully accommodating and responsive. Could not have asked for a better vacation.
Thank you.

No complaints! The property was clean and plenty to do for the kids. The wood burning stove was easy to use and we enjoyed the camping feeling. We would definitely recommend The Evergreen to anyone looking to escape the busy life and relax. Great location with lots of things to do all year around. Owners were very accommodating and responsive as well.

Perfect place for a multi family get away.
We loved our stay. We got to see snow falling. Sled on a small hill right on the property. The game room is perfect for the kids to have their own place to play.
All the kids are asking if we can come back and stay longer next time.
Chelsea is very responsive and helpful!
