Resting in the San Bernardino mountains and offering a deep-blue lake that is a boundless recreational playground, Lake Arrowhead is the perfect vacation escape whether you simply want to getaway for a weekend or a weeklong retreat. While the scenery is majestic and the atmosphere relaxing, the lake’s private status means the waters here can only be enjoyed from a charming vacation home along its shores.
One look at the picturesque man-made lake, the surroundings mountain terrain, and the luxurious homes around the water, and you will probably be wondering to yourself how exactly can you getaway in this natural wonderland. Since the lake, the docks, and the beaches are reserved for the private use of homeowners around the water, one option is to purchase a gated estate and make Lake Arrowhead your home away from home whenever the stress of daily life becomes too much. However, because this is not a viable option for most people, or an economical one, you can always take advantage of someone else’s second home if Lake Arrowhead appeals to your vacation senses.
Many of the home owners in Lake Arrowhead are not permanent residents, meaning the estates are available for rent throughout much of the year. If your prefer the warm summer sunshine and the fresh mountain air, make a beeline for the house that most suits your family’s needs and get ready for a vacation full of swimming, boating, water skiing, hiking, and downright exploring. Winter more your style? Lake Arrowhead is a great alternative to Big Bear Lake because it sits at a much lower elevation and the drive up is far less demanding (no tire chains needed here). In addition, the Snow Valley Mountain Resort in Running Springs is only a few miles away and the two Big Bear Mountain Resorts are a short half-hour drive away, meaning you can still ski and snowboard to your heart’s content.
While the convenience of Lake Arrowhead vacation rentals to endless outdoor adventures cannot be overstated, it also important to consider what the house itself has to offer in the way of amenities and comforts. Since you are selecting from various homes rather than hotel rooms, you have the luxury of choosing the appropriate number of bedrooms and bathrooms for your traveling party. No more fighting over rooms or deciding who has to sleep on the sofa as everyone has their own little sanctuary where they can enjoy peace, quiet, and privacy.
Although space is certainly one of the biggest advantages of Lake Arrowhead rentals, the fully-equipped kitchen, the wireless internet, the washer and dryer, the media room, and the game room aren’t too bad either. As these little extras certainly make the time you spend indoors as stress- and hassle-free as possible, the hot tub and deck right off the kitchen are the unbeatable cap to the perfect accommodations. Allowing you to soak in the pristine, untamed beauty at all hours of the day and melt away any of your remaining stress in the process, you simply could not ask for anything more from your vacation rental—inside and out.
Lake Arrowhead offers unparalleled opportunities for relaxation, adventure, and everything in between along its shimmering shores, on the challenging ski slopes, and in the surrounding San Bernardino National Forest. While you may have thought you could never access its private beauty, all you need to do is stay in a spacious and convenient vacation home rental that rests directly on the waterfront, and you can enjoy all of the breathtaking views and excitement during a dream mountain getaway.
