*Sleep In Promotion!  Check Out at 12pm Oct 1st - Dec 21st.

This modern “Yurt house” is 5 min from Lake Gregory and is surrounded by forest majestic views on 10 acres. It’s your private forest playground. Hike on the trail from the house 1/2 mile into the forest & then continue to a smaller trail that goes for miles. The views & sunsets are amazing not to mention the wildlife you may see. Relax with a glass of wine, soak in the hot tub while gazing at the stars & see the beauty of the night sky. Built in 2012, everything is new and has windows, windows, and more windows, with the forest just on the other side. The open-concept design and high ceilings give it a grand feel and the wood-burning stove gives it a rustic vibe. There are a few different outside spaces to relax and have coffee, or a glass of wine and be one with nature. Note: There are 2 single pull-out ottoman beds in the living room along with a futon (not shown). Guests have access to the entire property and can explore the National Forest area as well. We are here if you need us. The property is named Pinecone Lodge at Falcon Ridge because these are the largest pine cones in the world that can be found here! And standing on the edge of the ridge you will see the falcons soaring high above. Located just 5 minutes from Lake Gregory, this property is on the edge of the National Forest with incredible views of the surrounding mountains and forest, yet 5-10 minutes from downtown Crestline. It’s the perfect combination of seclusion and great access when you want to go out for dinner, to the grocery store, walk around the lake, or enjoy Lake Gregory’s activities. Just 5 minutes away is the Refresh yoga studio and 3 minutes away is Sycamore Ranch Vineyard and Winery (the local family-owned winery - plan with reservations). There is also a jeep trail nearby that will take you the back way to Silverwood Lake (14 miles). A car or bike is a great way to get around. If biking, there are hills! We have added a futon in the living room for another sleeping option. Up to 2 dogs are welcome. About the Area: Lake Arrowhead, Lake Gregory, and Big Bear Lake are recreational lakes in the Southern California San Bernardino mountains. They offer fresh crisp air, cooler weather (10-15 degrees) in the summer, and snow in the winter. They also offer a more relaxed and low-key energy “vibe” making them ideal locations for getaways to renew the mind, spirit, and body and to reconnect with family and friends. We answer frequent questions regarding the lakes and have put together some information below on what makes each location unique so it is easier to match with your specific goals for your time away. Upon booking one of our properties, you will receive more detailed information on how you can spend your time in the area. Big Bear Lake is a public lake and friendly to all types of boats and water sports and is the largest lake of the three. There is a short paved bike and walking trail that goes along the lake. Big Bear is a City and is more populated with stores, restaurants, and nightlife than the other two locations. It has more of a “desert” feel in terms of its topography. Big Bear is 26 miles up the mountain from Lake Arrowhead, Although none of our properties are in Big Bear, we recommend it for a day trip. Lake Arrowhead is a private lake and is accessible to guests staying at properties with lake rights if the owners have permitted guests to use their ALA (Arrowhead Lake Association) passes. If this is the case, the Amenity “lake access” will be checked on the listing. In our list of properties, the Gingerbread Cottage is providing lake access. With lake access, specifically, the lake trail is accessible. There is a $10 per person per day fee that is required to be paid to receive a wristband for access. More information can be found on the ALA website. Swimming is allowed from the lake trail at any location except the beach clubs (these are restricted to owners). There is no ability to launch boats or SUPs on the lake. The Village is lakefront and is the main area for shops and restaurants and has a fitness center as well. The Queen boat is a tour boat on Lake Arrowhead that provides much of the history of the town - tickets can be purchased at the shop by the lake. There is a local company that offers water skiing lessons boat tours and rentals. This area has more of a small town and alpine feel to it. The Villas area (south side of the lake) in Lake Arrowhead is cooler and gets more snow that lasts longer than the north side of the lake which gets more sun in the winter and is hotter in the summer. The Villas area is an older area with older homes and narrower streets. The Tudor House is an event center offering Sunday brunch and a variety of events. Skypark is a local attraction as well as Snow Valley for skiing for both Lake Arrowhead and Lake Gregory. Lake Arrowhead is 15 minutes up the mountain from Lake Gregory. Lake Gregory is a public lake in the town of Crestline, a small town about 20 minutes from the base of the mountain of San Bernardino. It is the closest mountain town to events and locations “down the hill”. In the past few years, the lake operations have become privately managed with significant improvements being done at the lake including the development of a water park, beach improvements, and boat, kayak, and canoe rentals. There is a fee to access the beach area and the water park and no fee to access the 2 1/2 mile trail around the lake. Fishing is allowed and more info can be found on the Lake Gregory website. Crestline has a small-town alpine feel with the lake nestled amongst the tall trees. Crestline gets less snow than the other 2 lake locations. The quaint town has restaurants, coffee shops, and thrift stores. Twin Peaks/Blue Jay sits in between Crestline and Lake Arrowhead and is convenient to both lakes. It has its restaurants, shops, and thrift stores. It is famous for its outdoor farmer’s market on Thursday afternoons (seasonal).

PETS: Beginning in December 2023, we are happy to announce our Happy Paws Community Program to help local animal shelters re-home and save the lives of animals.

We are now donating 25% of all pet fees to a local shelter/animal rescue. We are also launching our Happy Paws promotion for pet parents who help us get the word out about the program.

Hi! I’m sorry to bother you, but may I know the internet speed in the house? A guest has inquired about it, and I want to provide them with accurate information. Thank you so much!
