Our host was very welcoming and responsive. The place was well appointed and very clean. We appreciated the clear instructions on how to use the wood burning fireplace plus all the necessary supplies. Close enough to town for shopping and dining but far enough out to feel secluded.

The cabin was so clean. Every utensil you would need was available in the kitchen. The beds were very comfortable. The host was great at communicating with us for anything that we needed. It was a girls get away trip. We definitely be returning and stay more than 2 nights next visit. We couldn’t think of anything that was missing. There were games, books etc.

About the host

Hosted by Larry Van Liew

Location, location, location — My wife and I fell in love with this beautiful property the moment we first saw it. We named it Boulder Creek Cottage because of its unique features. Living close by allows us to attend to the needs of our guests should it become necessary. Since we are local, we deal with our guests directly — from key exchanges, to cleaning, to repairs, and anything in between. Our property is fully furnished and has all the amenities of home! We take pride in our property and look forward to accommodating your stay. Larry & Anne Van Liew (owners)

Why they chose this property

Our cottage is located up against the national forest and offers a secluded and quiet retreat for our guests. Being the last property on the street just adds to the mountain ambiance and privacy. It is not uncommon to see deer on our property.

What makes this property unique

Boulder Creek Cottage is a quiet, clean, cozy, secluded retreat situated up against the San Bernardino National Forrest. This is a perfect getaway for a few days to allow one to breath in the mountain air, enjoy the wildlife, hiking, rock climbing, biking, horseback riding, antiquing, shopping, or to just rest, renew, restore and reconnect. Our cottage provides a wonderful mountain ambiance, yet with all the modern conveniences. Whether used as a romantic honeymoon venue, a fun-filled family retreat, or just a cozy getaway, we think you will love our cottage.
