Upstairs room was nice. Unable to enjoy it comfortably. As from the moment we walked into the home it was 86 degrees and the air conditioning was not working. We contacted the host and we were told just open a window and door. Not let me get in touch with air conditioning company to see what the problem is. The host has great gas lightening techniques and does not take responsibility for anything. The home stated it had air conditioning that worked. Which is false advertisement as the air conditioning didn’t work. The host claims there was a heat wave that’s rare. Which if you live in California you know that there is a heat wave every year. The home never got below 80 degrees. Host continued to make rude derogatory remarks to us. Example why don’t you try living in the natural world. Example you big city people come up here expecting high quality air conditioning like hotel experience. Well I’m not from the big city. I’m from the low desert attempting to get away from the heat to the mountains and to a cabin that states has air conditioning. For the amount of money we paid that should of happened and never did. I would be better off staying in a hotel for the amount of money we paid, probably receive way better service and air conditioning that works. If you rent this place be prepared to be asked to do chores. The host is more worried about having you water his plants than making sure you have a comfortable stay. Including air conditioning that works properly as advertise.

Oasis in the Pines.

We left the city for a rest in the mountains. We couldn't have found a better spot. The views were incredible. The cabin is well appointed. The surprise is the master suite. The spa tub was fantastic. Our host, Robert, was very responsive. Thank you Robert.

A wonderful experience

We needed a quiet weekend away in the mountains and this cabin was perfect. And with its modern kitchen and bathrooms, we didn't have to worry about things not working. Also the pet-friendliness was a big bonus. They were thoughtful enough to have a patch of artificial grass on one of the balconies for late night bathroom runs for our dog. We encountered a few small issues, but each one was quickly resolved by the host. They were flexible with our booking dates and stayed in touch with us before and after the stay to ensure there were no problems. Would highly recommend for anyone looking for a quiet weekend in the mountains, but with modern luxuries and a responsive host, especially for dog owners.

cozy mountain getaway

The home was very comfortable and cozy with all modern details and amenities. The special and detailed touches from the owner was appreciated. Close drive to SkyPark, Santa’s Village and Lake arrowhead village. The master bedroom was beautiful with an extra soft bed. The 2nd bedroom was small and cozy with firm beds. The home had everything we needed and we will be back again soon.
