Q: DO WE ALLOW EARLY CHECK-INS?
A: Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate early check-ins -- as it will not allow our housekeeper enough time to fully prepare the home for you.

Q: CAN I GET A LATE CHECK-OUT?
A: Unfortunately, we cannot grant late check-outs. Our housekeeper is on a tight schedule to clean multiple homes, and we cannot accommodate a late check-out request. Thank you for your understanding.

Q: IS THE PROPERTY ISOLATED?
A: The Property is located in a mountain community and is surrounded by neighboring cabins. The community itself is just a few blocks from the Lake.

PARKING: There is no street parking allowed (the county citations are $1,000 which are billed directly to Vrbo guests) so please park ONLY in our designated parking area on the dirt/gravel clearing to the left of our steps. Make sure your vehicle is completely off the pavement. Be careful not to park anywhere else, like across the street - that property belongs to our neighbor's, and the county also cites the same $1,000 fine for parking on other home ownwer's property. Unfortunately, they are very tough on us, and code enforcement - for vehicles parked in the wrong area - will even respond in the middle of the night! They really want to issue those $1,000 fines, so please be careful! And I'll attach a photo example of where to park. If you have any questions, please message us.

** To reduce risk of wildfire during severe weather conditions, Southern California Edison reserves the right to temporarily cut electrical service to its customers, and we have no control over that. Our guests understand that there will be no refunds for power outages or internet/Wi-Fi interruptions and that they'll happily accept the unlikely inconvenience for the sake of preserving our forests!

** BE SURE TO COME ADEQUATELY PREPARED**

In snowy conditions, CHAINS MAY BE REQUIRED for access up the mountain and for driving on mountain roads. Be sure to check weather and road conditions by contacting CalTrans, the National Weather Service, etc.
- We do not extend refunds due to weather conditions, road closures, driver's abilities or vehicle limitations.
- Mountain weather requires shoveling snow.
* Guests will be responsible for shoveling the steps, the deck, a place to park and shoveling a path to and from the cabin.
* Snow shovels are located on the cabin deck -- shoe/boot chains are highly recommended when conditions are snowy and icy.

**MAXIMUM OCCUPANCY - Please specify the correct number of guests when requesting/booking a reservation. This cabin is strictly for the specified number of guests on the reservation booking and maximum occupancy is strictly enforced.

Q: CAN I INVITE MORE PEOPLE THAN THE MAXIMUM ALLOWED LISTED?
A: Maximum occupancy does not only refer to the number a home can sleep, this is also the number of people allowed in the home at any given time. It is determined by the licensing authority based on the number of exits in the home and fire safety codes.

**San Bernardino County has codes that are strictly enforced. Be sure to abide by the maximum occupancy number for the home at ALL times.

**IF YOU DO NOT ABIDE BY THESE CODE ENFORCEMENT POLICIES:
- Your reservation will be immediately cancelled.

Fun little get away!
We had a nice vacation at David and Patricia’s cabin. The location was great and the cabin was clean and very cozy. There was plenty of room for our family to enjoy. We had a lot of fun playing in the snow and will come back again.

Easy and nice
Traveled with my two kids and husband and had an easy nice stay! We didn’t really utilize the entire property since it was just the four of us, nor did we cook but it seemed to have everything if we wanted to… Everything was very clean! Owners were very responsive! Great stay!

Great Arrowhead Lake Experience
Great location, near lots of restaurants, shops, hiking trails and other activities. Very comfortable beds and very quiet. We brought a Duraflame log as suggested and one evening just enjoyed watching the fire while relaxing in the cozy surroundings. The provided adventure pass was a great plus for parking at hiking trails. It was overall a great long weekend for us. Thank you!

Short and sweet thanksgiving stay
The cabin was a perfect fit for our family! Our group included our mother in law who stayed in the capitals quarters away from the rumpus of our 4 and 6 year kiddos. The A frame twin beds gave it a magical feel for our daughters, who used this space as a playroom. The location was great for our jaunts to the village, loueddies, lake arrowhead brewery, Santa’s village, Cedar Glen inn, and Cedar Glen Malt Shop. We will be back for the snow and summer fun!
