One of a kind escape bungalow in secluded Blue Lake Springs, just on the outskirts of Arnold, Ca.
Located on a secluded drive with a view of Fly In lake, you’ll feel like you are miles away from anyone or anything. Our cabin includes some great modern amenities, while still giving you the feeling that you’re far away from the day to day hustle and bustle of the city.
Decorated in the classic style of the rustic American cabin, our getaway is decorated with knotty pine throughout. The spacious wraparound deck overlooking the lake, outdoor spa and outdoor breakfast nook are perfect for enjoying the solitude of the mountains.
Fly In Lake is directly across the street. The gently sloped beach makes for a perfect swimming hole for the kids. During the evenings enjoy a view of the stars while unwinding in the heated spa. Take in the romantic summer sunsets on the deck and enjoy an outdoor meal on the beautiful teakwood dinner table.
Small and cozy, the two bedroom/1 bathroom cabin can still sleep a family of four comfortably. The kids room has a bunk bed and TV with an assortment of kids movies. The master bedroom has a king size bed with a window overlooking the forest and lake. The futon in the living room can also be easily converted to a bed.
The kitchen is small but functional, and includes a small stove and fridge.
For those who absolutely must maintain some sense of what’s going on in the real world, the cabin is equipped with wireless internet access, and an IPod compatible stereo system. An outdoor wireless speaker system allows you to enjoy the music indoors and out.
