When you enter the cabin you will find yourself in the gorgeous, inviting living room. The large floor to ceiling stone fireplace and original wood-beam ceilings instantly greet you and set the stage for quintessential "cottage-core" ambiance. The leather sofa and oversized armchair are accompanied by plenty of soft throw pillows and blankets –– ready for you to sit back and relax! The entire room is perfectly curated with new designer furnishings, including a Samsung Frame TV, mixed with some of our favorite vintage finds.
Next to the living room is the beautifully renovated and fully-stocked kitchen, well-equipped with all the spices and cooking utensils you could need to prepare a delicious meal with your loved ones. Freshly-filled ice trays in the freezer and a complete barware set ensures that any hour can be cocktail hour. Enjoy your meal around the large rustic-style kitchen table overlooking the front deck and pine trees. Pass through the mudroom on your way to the back patio and be sure to take advantage of the full-size washer and dryer that are sure to make cleaning-up easy after a long day of playing in the snow or hiking the trails.
At the top of the stairs you will find the inviting and serene bathroom, featuring the original shiplap from 1946! Bathe with the thoughtfully selected vegan soaps and lotions and finish up with a full-size hairdryer, all provided so you can just show up and relax. In the primary bedroom you'll rest easy in the comfortable queen size bed with plush bedding on an antique iron bed frame. Unpack and stay awhile with a full dresser and a generously sized closet - which is also big enough to stash your suitcases in and check out your outfit in the full length mirror. The second bedroom has twin size bunk beds with memory foam mattresses and a trundle to sleep a total of three. Plus, an oversized pack-n-play with bonus mattress pad and fitted sheet are included if you're traveling with a baby or toddler.
Our home is nestled among so many gorgeous mature trees that sparkle in the morning dew and calm your mind with the relaxing sound of mountain breezes gently blowing through. The enchanted treehouse vibes abound when you take your meals on the back patio nestled within the massive pines, or unwind with a cup of coffee or glass of wine on the elevated front deck - overlooking the scenic view in total peace and quiet.
Three Things to Know About Our Cabin:
(1) @toadstoolcottage is small but mighty! The entire cabin is only 860 square feet, but the floor plan does make it feel bigger than it is. Because of its petite nature, the cabin may feel a bit intimate for more than 4 adults - but 5 guests can sleep very comfortably, and the couch is not a bad option for a 6th!
(2) Our cabin was built in 1946 which means it is full of character! When remodeled in the fall of 2020, much of the original craftsmanship was intentionally kept to preserve the quaintness and authenticity of the cabin. You may catch glimpses of the age of the cabin in some of the floorboards and the original shiplap. We consider these features and quirks to be well-earned badges of honor and a testament to the home's steadfastness and vintage soul.
(3) Sitting at an elevation of 5,650 ft - our cabin is PURE MAGIC during the snowy winter months; but it can require a little more planning, awareness, and an extra adventurous spirit. A 4-wheel drive/ all-wheel drive vehicle is REQUIRED to stay at our cabin during the snowy months.

*Other Details to Note
Our cabin is two floors, and the stairs are steep. There is a portion of the staircase that can be dangerous for small children. We provide a baby gate that can be placed at the top or the bottom of the stairs. Additionally, as part of the home's original design to allow heat to radiate upwards from the furnace and fill the home with warmth in the winter months, the floorboards of the upstairs also act as the ceiling surface for the downstairs. There is a pass-thru vent strategically placed in the floor of each bedroom to facilitate air flow, with the primary bedroom having the larger one. This systems works well to keep everyone cozy, and little ones will enjoy playing peekaboo between upstairs and downstairs. However if privacy is a concern, the floor vent in the primary bedroom can be easily covered with a pillow - which can also dampen any extra extra noise. There is also a convenient space heater in the primary bedroom you can use to stay extra toasty if desired.
Snow Season:
Every year is different, but snow season is generally from November to April in Lake Arrowhead. We provide sleds that can be used right outside the front door or on the gentle slope of the backyard when there’s snow. There is a comfortable amount of our property that surrounds the home, but please be mindful and respectful of our neighbors' property lines where marked.
During snowy conditions we do REQUIRE a 4-wheel or all-wheel drive vehicle. Our neighborhood, like all mountain neighborhoods, can get very icy/slippery when it snows and 2-wheel drive vehicles, even with chains, WILL NOT MAKE IT to our cabin! You are responsible for checking road conditions and planning accordingly. Please monitor weather conditions closely, and make sure you are equipped to both reach and leave the cabin safely within the established check-in and check-out times. We will try to help you in any way we can from our remote position but know that ultimately your hosts are not liable for the whims of Mother Nature.
Our road is plowed by the county, but you may need to shovel the driveway during heavy snowfall. Snow shovels and road salt will be provided.
During severe winter storms, there can be downed tree limbs, road closures, and power outages. Be aware that it can be difficult for workers to restore power, clear roads, or reach the cabin for repairs. If you choose to book a stay during the snowy months, get your adventurous spirit ready. We provide rechargeable flashlights for our guests in the event of a power outage. Start a fire in the fireplace, bundle up, and stay cozy reading, playing board games, or working on a puzzle while you wait for the power to turn back on.
Southern California mountains are notorious for year-round wildfire risk, and fire safety is top priority. It is illegal to have any outdoor fires other than a gas firepit or gas grill used under responsible supervision.
Our fireplace in the living room is functional and wood-burning only. Chopped wood is located outside near the front steps in a covered rack. Please only use the fireplace if you already have prior experience using a wood-burning fireplace, as an improperly-tended fire can quickly generate toxic smoke that can fill the house and pose serious life-threatening health risks. The home's gas forced-air heater works very well and is easily controlled by the Nest thermostat next to the couch. Battery operated flameless candles are provided at the fireplace to simulate the romantic and comforting glow of a flickering fire. It's preferred if the fireplace is only used in the rare event of a total power outage that renders the heater temporarily inoperable. If used, the fireplace should never be left unattended until the fire is completely extinguished. Never allow children to be unsupervised near the active fireplace, nor should children ever be allowed to play with fire.
