Why You'll Love Our Running Springs Chalet:

SKIP THE BIG BEAR TRAFFIC: We're one of the very closest homes to Southern California. Located right off the safer, newer Hwy 330.

The Easiest Mountain Trip You'll Ever Take
Our cabin is designed for relaxation, and that starts with the drive. Forget the long, winding roads to Big Bear. We are in the first neighborhood you reach, where Hwy 330 meets Hwy 18. This makes our home one of the easiest to get to, even in the snow.

The level driveway and single-step entry to the main floor make loading and unloading groceries and luggage effortless, and it's perfect for any guests with mobility concerns.

Wonderful mountain getaway for the whole family.

Stunning views of the mountains, We enjoyed the huge shade trees in the backyard covering the deck making it perfect for barbecuing and at night I can't describe how beautiful the stars are from the deck we wanted to get away from the city for a few days and came with my wife and son and the whole family enjoyed themselves we found that the kitchen was well stocked with everything that you could need, the rooms are huge and beds felt so great! it is a quick drive up from riverside and is located in a nice quiet area. Ben gave us some great suggestions for food and we got to see some of the cover bands while exploring the village. we will be coming back next time we need to get away

We stayed at this cabin and absolutely loved it! The layout was awesome — all 8 of us were able to relax and watch movies together comfortably. It was very spacious, clean, and fully stocked with all the pots, pans, and baking utensils we needed.Even though we didn’t have kids with us this time, we noticed that the bottom floor would be perfect for them — it’s private and would be super easy to set up gaming consoles or a hangout space. The location was also great! The market and a cute café were both within walking distance, and it was an easy drive up to Lake Arrowhead.We had such a great time and can definitely see ourselves coming back again!

My family of 8 enjoyed our time at this cabin. if it was possible, I would give more stars than five! The kitchen was fully stocked. not a thing I needed for my cooking. We loved the open concept of kitchen, dining room, and living room. we were able to converse with each other as some were doing puzzles or watching TV or (me) cooking. One of my sons had to bring his work with him and the internet was superior... no glitches what so ever, and clear connection.We spend some time on the deck where wild life came to visit. Overall, we had a wonderful time and are already planning to come back!

We had such a wonderful stay! The location was easy to access and just a short walk to a friendly café and market that had everything we could possibly need. The house itself was incredibly comfortable and accommodated our big family perfectly. It was fully stocked with all the dishes and amenities we could ask for. Ben was always available and quick to respond whenever we had a question. The view of the trees and local wildlife was so peaceful and relaxing — it truly felt like a retreat. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

A beautiful property with lots of upgrades to make it super comfortable and easy access with no major stairs between parking and entry. The coffee shop and grocery nearby made it even better. The owners were also great with communication. Definitely would recommend.

Mountaintop escape

Ben’s house is exactly as described, but better. It is very well-designed, spacious and with numerous spaces to relax. We really enjoyed using the bbq on the rear deck on our first night. The house is very well-appointed and scrupulously clean. Ben was very helpful and responded quickly when sought his advice. Thanks Ben!

Couldn't have asked for a better stay!

We stayed for 3 nights to go skiing at Snow Valley. Ben was an incredibly thoughtful and attentive host and provided a very comfortable and well stocked house, including a basement game room which my kids absolutely loved! Probably my favorite part of the house was the accessibility - just a one minute walk from a very cute and delicious cafe, a 2 minute drive from the little town, and no long dirt driveways or narrow stairs to reach the house which is common with other properties in the area. Doesn't get any better than this if you're looking for a cozy mountain getaway!

AWESOME EXPERIENCE!

My family and I absolutely loved staying in this cabin! It was one street off the main road and had plenty of parking. We were right near a cute cafe and 1 minute away from grocery store and restaurants. But best of all was the interior of the cabin. It was so cozy. We loved the fireplace in the living room area. Our daughter loved the Internet access... and big screen TV's in 3 areas. LOL. The kitchen had absolutely everything we could have needed and more. My wife particularly loved the whirlpool bathtubs. The beds were extremely comfortable and the house was decorated very cute. We spent a good part of the evenings out on the back deck just looking at the trees and stars. It was such a quiet, peaceful neighborhood too. Thanks to Mr. Plaxco for making our stay a memorable one! We will be coming back in the summer for sure!

I couldn’t recommend more!

I can’t speak more highly about our wonderful stay. The surrounding is so peaceful and tranquil. Spent so much time out on the deck enjoying the scenery and wildlife and views. The place was so comfortable and relaxing. The beds were so comfortable. Very close to nearby coffee shop and the little downtown. I loved it. Also have to mention the loft. Wonderful place to hang out and look out the huge windows into the forest outside I would highly recommend this place for your visit.

About the host

Hosted by Benjamin P Plaxco

Host profile image
My mom and dad were raised in the Inland Empire. In 1983, Mom and Dad built a small cabin at 31531 pleasant drive. They did all the work themselves and Dad built the fireplace. In 2004, they sold the cabin and bought the land next door at 31549 Pleasant Drive, and built the present home. The home was built with much thought and care and as many personal touches. Mom was an artist and painted the roses on the shutters on each side of the windows and front door. As a family we have loved this cabin. We have enjoyed tremendous hospitality throughout the United States and several countries of the world. Our goal is to provide a completely clean environment where you and your loved ones can truly enjoy some time away from your normal routine, healed by the therapeutic benefits of nature, and pampered in a home that gives you as many (or maybe more) comforts than your own home. We really want you to leave completely relaxed, refreshed with amazing memories with your loved ones.

Why they chose this property

Because it is so peaceful! We really only have one real neighbor so it's very quiet. As quiet as it is, it's great to be within walking distance of a bakery, coffee shop and market, and skiing / snowboarding at Snow Valley, Snow Summit, Bear Mountain and Rim Nordic XC ski areas and mountain bike parks.

What makes this property unique

Many cabins in this area were built in the '40s and '50s and have functionally comfortable. The driveways are narrow, the homes are narrow and crammed up against each other, the bedrooms and closets are small and they just look and smell older.

Our home is modern and extremely comfortable. It's very open and easy to relax in. The windows let in so much cheerful sunshine it's a pleasure just to sit on the couch and chill. The deck is huge, over 400 ft², and the sunsets are amazing. One of my very favorite things about the home is the two Jacuzzi bathtubs. In my normal routine I don't have time to enjoy a spa treatment, so we look forward to indulging ourselves here.
