We had a great time! This is a beautiful home; we enjoyed the indoor and outdoor spaces. We had a few minor issues with keyless entry, but they were quick to respond and get it resolved.

Our stay was great! The property is well thought out for families. Host communication was great. I understand the use of so much plastic bc of life around a pool but if we book again I will bring my own cookware. I have worked hard to eliminate Teflon type stuff to cook with…. The bunk bed room does not work with guests in their teenage years they are small. But over all the property is very nice. Parking is basically on the street bc there is no garage and driveway very small.

This was a great condo for our Tahoe trip for a couple and two teens. The location was excellent, the beds were very comfortable, kitchen was fully appointed, bathtub and hot water were great, had no problems with wifi or TV. It could have used a few welcoming touches that were noticeably absent -- no instructions about the house or info about the area (where's the ubiquitous binder?!), no snow gear to use (saucers, toys, shovel, boot scraper), no wood for the fireplace or instructions on how or whether to use it, no throw blankets for the couch, no spices or cooking staples in the cupboards. Other than that it was an excellent place for our small group and we'd definitely consider this spot for future winter and summer trips.

This property was what we expected and we had a great time. The snowfall did not disappoint either. We had prompt snow removal from the driveway and that was a great help. To note- the forestry land is a short walk with great sledding and walking trails. Thank you for checking on us during our stay, as well.

First time in Lake Arrowhead and we had a great stay at Cabin Chula (love the name). Cami was great and very responsive. The cabin is cozy and perfect for a small family. It had everything as advertised and all we needed for cooking. Location is great but make sure you download the directions because you may have reception issues once you enter the area.

Home was great. Having the house on water front was dreamy. Was clean and well stocked with supplies. Host was great to work with. If going in the off season make sure you ask about pool being heated and hot tube as that was not mentioned in the listing at the time I booked that it was an extra charge. Host worked with us on what I felt was fair. Thanks for a great stay.

From beautiful beaches to thriving metropolises, snowy mountains to redwood forests and expansive deserts, California offers something for everyone. Stay in a beach house in Southern California where the ocean is your backyard, or pick a luxurious home in Palm Springs with your very own pool. How about a quirky apartment in the heart of San Francisco or a stunning view of the mountains from your window in Lake Tahoe?

What are the best activities for families in California?

Traveling with Children in California

If you are traveling with children, keeping them entertained will be easy due to the endless number of family-friendly attractions. Disneyland, Universal Studios, and Knott's Berry Farm are some of the popular theme parks in California. There are also many aquariums and zoos, including Monterey Bay Aquarium and San Diego Zoo.

San Francisco's interactive museums are great for inquisitive young learners, and if they love the great outdoors, take them to witness the wonders of Yosemite National Park. Lake Tahoe also offers activities all year-round, from hiking and water sports in summer to skiing in winter.

What are the best places to discover the arts and culture of California?

California’s Art and Culture

There is a wide acceptance of diversity in California and a love of innovative ideas. This is, after all, the birthplace of the 60s hippie movement, home to Hollywood, as well as some of the greatest artists in the world. So if art is what you're looking for, base yourself in Southern California where you'll find all sorts of wonderful outdoor art.

Located in the middle of the desert, Salvation Mountain is an art oasis by local resident Leonard Knight. Made entirely of adobe, straw, clay, and half a million gallons of paint, its combines religious scriptures with colorful flowers, trees, the sun, and birds.

Or check out the Integratron, a dome built in the 50s by George Van Tassel, a self-proclaimed UFO abductee who claims that the planet Venus's inhabitants gave him the instructions to build the structure. Supposedly capable of rejuvenation due to its magnetic fields, it proves that nothing is too eccentric for California.

What are the top sights in California?

Explore California's Natural Wonders

Did you know that California has more national parks, historical sites, and monuments than any other state in the US?

The Yosemite National Park is known for its awe-inspiring, plunging waterfalls. Named a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1984, it has huge granite cliffs, dramatic valleys, and unforgettable nature. All on a gigantic space of 1,100 square miles! It’s no wonder that over 4 million visitors flock here each year. Meanwhile, the Joshua Tree National Park enthralls with its freaky-yet-cool-looking trees that dot the land. Catch glorious sunsets over the grand desert rock formations.

Wine lovers can savor the experience of the Napa and Sonoma wine countries, with their more than 600 wineries. Besides a world-class culinary scene, Napa is known for its meticulously cultivated grapes, which produce wines that rival French produce. Enjoy tasting the wines while feasting your eyes on rolling hills, beautiful plains, and endless vineyards. The agricultural diversity of the fertile land remains one of Sonoma’s greatest prides—and rightfully so. Enjoy it all from the comfort of your California vacation house.
