We had an absolute blast here this weekend. The staff were super nice, and have an awesome dog on property who enjoys getting pets.

We especially loved the BBQ area. We barbecued dinner two nights in a row and enjoyed their board and cards games they had out. At night, they lit a fire so we could make s’mores.

Can’t suggest this spot in Arnold enough, and we’re going to stay here again this summer.

Lovely place. We last stayed there 18 years ago, and it has since had a nice remodel. The BBQ area in the back was lovely and roughly half of the residents were enjoying it in the evenings. They have some games a few different seating areas, two fires pits and corn hole. The woman who runs the place is great and her dog, Bear, is adorable.

Meadowmont Lodge in Arnold was truly an amazing place to stay we honestly couldn’t have chosen a better spot. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed. The woman at the front desk greeted us right away with such genuine kindness and warmth. She was incredibly sweet, helpful, and attentive throughout our entire stay. My kids absolutely loved stopping by to talk with her — she made them feel so special and at home.

Our room was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully set up with everything we needed. It had that perfect mountain-lodge charm while still being comfortable and practical for a family stay. You can tell they really care about keeping the property well maintained.

One of our favorite parts was the outdoor space. They offer complimentary hot cocoa, which was such a nice touch, especially in the chilly weather. They also have s’mores packs available for a small fee and open fire pits in the back for guests to enjoy. Sitting around the fire roasting marshmallows with my kids was such a special memory, it made the whole experience feel magical and so homey.

The entire atmosphere felt warm, relaxed, and family-friendly. It’s the kind of place where you feel comfortable the minute you walk in. We will definitely be coming back on our next visit to Arnold. Highly recommend Meadowmont Lodge to anyone looking for a cozy, welcoming getaway!

A place that has plenty of vacancy should not be so stringent about cancellation rules and check out times. Managers were very concerned about damages to the facility. They also could not be bothered after 8pm for questions or requests. This property charges a lot for the minimum they provide.

On 1/3/2025, we got injured in the snow and needed a later checkout on 1/4/2025 to get ourselves together despite injuries. The property was empty, so this should not have been an issue. Natalie had zero empathy for our injuries and was very rude.

We will not be returning and will tell everyone we know going to Arnold to avoid this property.

My criteria: clean, functional room, a bed I can sleep in comfortably. The first 2 criteria were fully met! The bed was an absolute failure; horrible support and tossed and turned all night. Had to actually place a pillow under my hips for support. Booked 2 nights. Bed was so bad I had to cancel night 2. The lodge still charged for night 2. I do not understand how that is reasonable/legal when the facility is not offering what I am paying for.

Need earplugs if you want sleep

You NEED earplugs if you stay here. Thin walls and you can hear everyone. Group of people were still drinking/partying past 1:30am and you can hear it all. Its suffices for a stay in Arnold. Great service and super friendly. Just advise bringing earplugs if you want to sleep.

This property is very close to Calaveras Big Trees State Park and that is why we stayed here. It was very clean, and the woman checking us in was friendly. We stayed two nights. We ate across the street at a brewery the first night and at an Italian restaurant the second night. The Italian restaurant, Sarafina's, was excellent.

The property is con enie tly located directly off the main highway (the 4, I believe) in Arnold close to the supermarket and several dining options. The room was comfortable and cozy. Unfortunately the bathroom heater was not working and it was rather cold in there. The detail that kept me from giving the Lodge 5 stars was the check-in process. We arrived at 6:30pm and the office was already closed. Someone eventually answered the Ring doorbell and the check-in/payment transaction was done remotely with us speaking to the doorbell. What really made me uncomfortable was having to stand outside and recite my credit card number. Check-in felt impersonal and unsecure.

Clean and well-kept place with modern upgrades

The property is very clean and well maintained. Has solar power for the summer months. The wood looring instead of carpet is very big plus for us as it gives a clean look. The attendant is friendly and does amazing work keeping it clean and providing very helpful tips on the local events and weather conditions. Will visit again.
