We've stayed at a number of rental houses, and none have come close to the level of appointments at Nine Arrows. The house itself is in a wonderful location just steps from the lake, on a quiet street with four parking spots (a true luxury in Lake Arrowhead!). This feels like a private home--and a “real house.” Many rental properties in Lake Arrowhead feel like second homes, cheaply built and oddly laid-out, with lots of steps, due to the very steep terrain--but Nine Arrows is traditionally built and takes advantage of a large, flat lot. The decor is fresh and modern, comfortable and durable, with modern and high quality appliances and electronics. The outdoor eating and lounging areas are clean with comfortable new furniture, and the natural gas BBQ (no running out of propane!) is large and robust. We were very pleased with the kitchen--other rental properties have the bare minimum of chintzy utensils, but this kitchen was stocked with everything: at least 12 place settings of plates, glasses, mugs, flatware, plus plastic plates and bowls for kids. Speaking of kids--there are plenty of toys and baby supplies, and aside from the steeper staircase, the house is very child-friendly. (We didn’t break anything!) The basement-level gameroom was a hit with our kids and teens. This property was perfect for our two-family group: we could be together most of the time, but the other family could retreat to the smaller (but still very roomy) cabin for privacy at night. Hosts were very accessible for both remote support and tips for activities and restaurants in the local area. A true gem in Lake Arrowhead, just minutes from the Village.
