Arrowhead Lake Access
- While Lake Arrowhead is a private lake you can still enjoy it by visiting Lake Arrowhead Village or taking a boat tour on the Arrowhead Queen.

Public Parks
- We highly recommend Mackay Recreational Park (3.7 mile drive) with its breathtaking views of the lake, kids playground, basketball court, pickleball court and even outdoor fitness equipment.
Winter Snow Season
- During winter season we sometimes experience a very large snow accumulation. It's essential to have a 4-wheel drive vehicle or carry snow chains, as the CHP requires them for mountain travel during snowy conditions. Our property includes a plowing service that clears the driveway and walkways after a substantial snowfall (6 inches or more) before your arrival. However, snow may continue to accumulate after the initial clearing. While we don't offer shoveling services during your stay, shovels and de-icing salt are available for your use. Should you need additional shoveling assistance, please reach out to us, and we might be able to organize extra help for a fee. In case of heavy snow, we might not able to clear the decks, focusing only on maintaining pathway access. We appreciate your understanding as snow removal services diligently work to keep the roads accessible.
Covid 19 Compliance
- We prioritize your health and safety by implementing a rigorous and thorough cleaning routine – including sanitizing countertops, doorknobs, bathrooms, and other high contact areas.
- Please note that the host is not liable for any weather conditions that may affect your arrival and stay.
- Long and mid term rentals considered, message us for special pricing and requests.
- My wife and I look forward to having you as our guests!
