This beautiful cabin in the woods is nestled amongst the trees. Quiet and romantic, it's the perfect place to unwind. Read a book on the outdoor deck. Sip a cup of cocoa in front of the fireplace. Stroll to Lake Gregory, only a quarter of a mile away. Our home is a mere 90 minutes from the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles. It's a 15 minute drive to Lake Arrowhead. It's only a half an hour from Snow Valley for skiing and snowboarding.
The space
The Starlight Lodge is a peaceful retreat in the gorgeous San Moritz neighborhood of Crestline. Upstairs, enjoy wood beamed, vaulted ceilings, a generously appointed kitchen ready for a gourmet meal, a luxurious master bedroom with king sized bed, a guestroom with bunk beds (twin over full) filled with games like darts, shuffleboard, backgammon and puzzles, and a cozy living room with comfortable seating and an inviting gas fireplace. The large deck has a picnic table, hammock, and daybed so the whole group can enjoy the mountain air.
Through a secret bookcase door, you will enter the Enchanted Annex. This space has an additional living room with fireplace, tv and game system, a full bathroom, and two bedrooms whimsically decorated with fantasy themes. The Narnia bedroom has a full sized bed and a couch that lays flat and can be used as an additional bed. It also has a small desk that can be used for work or writing. The Secret Garden bedroom has a hanging queen sized bed adorned with floral garland. (please do not allow children unattended in this room. The bed is not made for aggressive swinging, but for a gentle rocking. Any damaged caused by incorrect use will be charged to the guests). There is another full bathroom on this floor for the convenience of those staying in the downstairs bedroom. And just outside the door there is a porch swing underneath the deck.
PET POLICY: We frequently host an elderly family member who is severely allergic to pets. Because of this, we ask that guests leave their furry pals at home. Although we love animals, for the safety of my mom, we must remain pet free.
Other things to note
This is a mountain town and is regularly effected by snow and inclement weather. It is required by law for you to travel with chains in the winter. Very dense fog can also be a problem. Please use caution when traveling.
Please note, San Bernardino Short Term Rental laws dictate that cars for VRBO units may not exceed the number of spaces available. So if traveling in a group, you may bring no more than 4 cars (two parked on the upper deck, two parked on the lower part of the property) You may be cited for any infractions of this rule.
The 54 steps leading down to the cabin from the top parking deck are lit with solar lights but they may be dim or out if the day has been cloudy. Please be prepared to use a flashlight to navigate the staircase if you get in after dark
We ask that guests remove their shoes when inside the lodge due to to the mud and forest debris that can be tracked in. If you do not want to be barefoot, bring socks or slippers for your stay!
