Escape to the mountains and get out in nature to hike, enjoy the lakes, and skiing/snowboarding!

Step back in time and enjoy all the vintage touches of this Mid-Century Modern A-frame time capsule in Running Springs nestled perfectly between Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear. Enjoy the nearby lakes in the summer and skiing/snowboarding in the winter. Relax on the large deck high up in the trees, or curl up on the couch with a mug of hot cocoa in front of the Carousel fireplace. Grill up dinner out on the deck, listen to records, play board games and enjoy spending time in this sweet retro vibe.

I am reachable during your stay over the app or by text or cell phone.

Nestled in the heart of the San Bernardino Mountains, Running Springs is a picturesque and serene mountain community, perfectly situated halfway between the vibrant destinations of Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear Lake. This hidden gem offers a tranquil escape, blending the peacefulness of a small mountain town with convenient access to the diverse attractions and activities of its famous neighbors. Ideal for nature lovers, Running Springs is surrounded by lush forests, providing opportunities for hiking, fishing, and skiing at nearby Snow Valley Resort. Its location is a gateway to the natural beauty of the San Bernardino National Forest, making it a perfect base to enjoy the best of both worlds in Southern California’s mountainous splendor.

The cabin is just 5 minutes off of Highway 18 on a 10,000 sq ft, 1/4 acre lot. There are full-time neighbors on each side but everyone keeps to themselves and it is peaceful. You may be greeted by my neighbor's dog Desdimona (Desi) - she’s a sweetheart.

PARKING - paved driveway that fits 2 cars. It’s a hard right into the driveway so you may want to pull forward, put on your flashers, and back in OR drive past the cabin to the next street and do a u-turn.

The Live Oak A-Frame is the perfect romantic getaway! You can also bring your fur babies for some great nature walks. And if you have a little one, we have a pack-n-play with all organic bedding for your use.

You will need a car.

If you'd like to get out for a walk, just be aware there are no sidewalks but there is very little traffic so once crossing over the main road you can walk in the middle of the road to take your dogs out or get some fresh air.

NOTE - In the winter between November and March you must have chains. They are rarely needed but if stopped you must show you have them in your car in case needed. You can buy new before heading up the mountain and then return if unused.

Occasional road noise can be heard when outside on the front and back decks or if you have a window open.

WINTER - During snow season, November to March, you’ll need an AWD/4WD and chains are required. While only needed maybe 2-3 times during the season, if stopped you will need to show them. You can pick up a set before heading up the mountain and return if unused.

In order for this booking to be considered confirmed, Guest will sign a separate agreement acknowledging the San Bernardino rules for Vacation Rental guests.

Gorgeous Cabin

The cabin was such a beautiful getaway in Running Springs! The photos do not do it justice this cabin is stunning! There were many cooking and cleaning amenities provided by host which is always a pleasure. This property is a cabin in the woods so insects do make their way inside no matter what, there were a handful of spiderwebs in nooks and crannies of this property and some of the food provided for our stay was expired. The property is nestled in a dense neighborhood so if there are people staying on either side you would be able to hear and see them while on the back deck. The owners to the right do have dogs that bark mildly. However, for the time my boyfriend and I stayed it was a relaxing retreat and we would love to stay again in the future!

Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024
