From the host

Green Valley Lake, CA, is a picturesque retreat where time seems to stand still. We have amazing sledding in the winter. In the summer, the lake is open to the public where they sell fishing passes, rent out kayaks and pedal boats, and have a swim beach with lifeguards. We'll send you a digital guidebook that provides all our favorite trails, restaurants, and activities.

After first listing our Lake cabin on Airbnb, I fell in love with the Airbnb community! I have since purchased another mountain lake cabin in Green Valley Lake.. I also co-host for many other cabin owners in the San Bernardino Mountains. I love being in the mountains. Rock climbing, hiking, mountain biking, you name it. And I LOVE to help others experience these adventures by hosting their stay at a peaceful, mountain cabin. I am always available to give suggestions on trails, fishing spots and other mountain hidden gems. Can't wait to host your visit to the mountains!
