Great location right by the Village. Spacious home, plenty of room for our two families. Kitchen stocked well enough to prepare several meals. Lovely fireplace, comfortable couch in living room. Water pressure good, heat in showers varies from fair to good. Brigitte was prompt in responding to our concerns, including sluggish heater downstairs and leak from upstairs bath into downstairs bedroom. Home is quaint but dated, with carpeting and upholstered furniture triggering some allergies.

guests called to inform me that the downstairs heating system was not working. i spent 2 hours on the phone to get hvac on a holiday weekend. when i called to let guest know the man was on his way they told me that it just took a bit to warm up. i had to pay for service call none the less. guests plugged up a toilet requiring a plumber. i took it all in stride - then they asked for a discount......
The heater down stairs did not work well. Made the upstairs to hot and downstairs to cold. It was very dusty and spiders everywhere.

our home has a two-zone heating system - each controlled by a nest thermostat. guests only turned up the upstairs thermostat, which would, of course, made upstairs hot and downstairs cold! this was explained to them in numerous e-mails!i was in the home the day prior to guests arrival to install the christmas tree and drop off cookie sheets they requested! - the home was spotless and there certainly were no spiders. there was a barrage of questions and requests before they arrived as well as during their stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was very well equipped with ample space and lovely European charm accents. Amazing location to the village and a very easy check in process. Property manager was wonderful to work with. Would definitely recommend.

i am happy you enjoyed your stay! the bedding was freshly laundered and clean upon your arrival. since you stayed for 13 days we offered maid service and linen change during your stay, which you declined. we are always happy to provide maid service for guests staying longer than 3 days at a reasonable additional fee.
Incredible family/friends retreat in the heart of Arrowhead
We had great time with friends for New year. The cabin is beautiful and just across the street from the restaurants and shopping center in the village. Brigitte, the owner is very responsive and accommodating to our needs. Great experience. Will definitely come back.
Fantastic location. Quirky and fun house with great layout for our family and well behaved dog. Some deferred maintenance but didn’t impact our experience. Great BBQ and lots of outdoor seating options.

i am so happy you enjoyed your stay at my home! try to return in winter - it is magical around the christmas holidays!
We love staying here, it’s perfect for our big group. Everyone has their own bedroom and own bathroom. There is plenty of space! Brigitte is great with the communication and easy to get in touch with! Hope to stay here again next year!
We stayed for 4th of July weekend. Lovely big house with lots of room. Also centrally located right near village, so we could walk everywhere. Wonderful fireworks show and evening concerts at village. Property manager (Bridgette) was awesome; so responsive to all our needs. We had a great time and highly recommend:)
My family came up for Thanksgiving we had 8 adults 3 kids ranging from 2-15 and one dog and this home was comfortable for all. It had a plenty of bathrooms and a large enough kitchen to cook a full thanksgiving meal. In my opinion the location was the best as it was down the street from the lake side restaurants and shops. There was a small leak under the sink that caused us to clean out the cabinet under the sink a few times.

guests were nice enough to let me know about the drip under the sink, so we were able to address the issue asap. it has been repaired
I stayed here with my family for New Year’s Eve. I was extremely satisfied with my choice. The house is a great size for a large family (not to mention the importance of 5 bathrooms). The listing pictures don’t do it justice. It has so many cute details around the house. I loved how close it was to The Village. We got lucky and it snowed on our last day! It was a fabulous trip!
The house was very nice, upstairs has 3 bedrooms with bathrooms and 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms downstairs. The kitchen had some spices. What was missing was plastic storage bags which would be nice and an upgrade in frying pans. The pans there were really old with loose handles. Other than that the house was great.

About the host
Hosted by brigitte rank
hello friends, i am a retired airline hostess and i enjoy beautiful places and homes, and taking care of my guests. i was born and grew up in germany, where i worked as a translator for USAACOM. i came to the usa in 1967 on a leave of absence, started flying, fell in love with my new country and my new job and i have been here ever since. our main residence is in los angeles, ca, but my family and i love driving up up to lake arrowhead, which reminds me of my youth in a small town in germany.
Why they chose this property
i love restoring older homes to their former glory. i am proud to say that this property is now a beautiful, elegant and comfortable home and offers all the amenities of a luxury hotel and more. the old-world charm of castellago and its ideal location make for a perfect get-away. you can walk across the street to arrowhead village to the super market, several fine restaurants, as well as casual eateries with lake views. there is a coach outlet store and other lovely stores and boutiques, galleries, antique stores for the adults and a little playground and macdonalds for the kids. a seven eleven and a pizzeria are across the street. the property has its own large level parking lot. the ground floor has 2 bedrooms/2bathrooms for those not able to climb stairs. the home is easily accessible from hwy 173 even during inclement weather. during the summer, oktoberfest, 4th of july fireworks, christmas, etc. it is impossible to find parking in the village. castellago guests can just stroll across the street. sunday brunch at bugsy segal's former speak-easy or cedar glen village for antiquing are just a 10 minute drive away. my guest book has loads of information for you.
What makes this property unique
i fell in love with castellago the first time i saw it! from the village it looks like an old european castle and inside it is a mixture of villa and farmhouse - sophisticated, yet cozy and comfortable. the location is prime! once there you will not need a car. from restaurants to shopping to entertainment - everything is within walking distance. the home has ample parking for 5 cars, or a motorhome, a boat. wintersports are easily accessible , the home is right off hwy 173, it's 1.6 miles to sky park and santa's village, 5.8 miles to lake gregory 8 miles to snow valley and 8 miles to san manuel casino. castellago has lake rights and access to two private beach clubs for guests staying 30 DAYS OR MORE ( PER LAKE ASSOCIATION!) BEACH PASS IS REQUIRED! parking in arrowhead village is problematic during the summer months and holidays, and being able to just walk across the street for shopping, dinner, a cruise on the arrowhead queen, the weekend concerts, fireworks, etc. is a plus. yet, for guests just looking for a quiet weekend with family and friends, the kitchen is fully stocked, bathroom amenities are provided. the private terrace is a lovely spot equipped with a large bbq, dining set and chaise lounge. or you can watch movies on the 2 large screen tvs, read a book in the little library or play games in the breakfast/game room. guests may use owner's lake pass to access the private hiking trails around the lake by purchasing wrist bands from the lake association.
