Nice property. Everything we needed for our Leadership Retreat, which were all men. Minor observations, grill a little dirty, front bushes starting to block the walkway, broken tile in jacuzzi. If our wives had come there might have been more but it suited our needs.

Would Highly Recommend!

Our church rents a few cabins every year for our annual Ladies Retreat. We used this house for our "Mommy & Me" group. It was so spacious. The little girls loved the big jacuzzi, play room loft and pool table. There were no complaints. Trip went perfect. It's a must stay!

Great place for a growing family!

The property is even bigger than imagined, with so much space for all members of our family to be at all times. The area is nice and close to local grocery stores and the lake. Will definitely be booking again when we return to lake arrowhead for Xmas in a couple years!

ALWAYS GREAT MEMORIES MADE

We’ve gone twice this year and once last year, we always leave with such great memories that leave us looking forward to next year! Excellent customer service from the owner Mike V. as usual. It was even nice that we were able to recover our blanket and large spoon that we accidentally left the last time we stayed! Looking forward to next years family vacay!

Our stay at this vacation home was fantastic! We visited as a family with young kids, and it truly had everything we needed and more. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed and at ease.The home was extremely family-friendly—cribs, toys, and books for the kids were all thoughtfully provided, which made our trip so much easier. It’s clear the hosts really care about creating a space where families can relax and enjoy themselves.The location was perfect—peaceful and convenient, close to shops, parks, and local attractions. The kitchen was fully loaded with everything we needed to cook full meals, which we really appreciated.One of the highlights for the adults was the private dry sauna and jacuzzi—what a treat! After long days exploring or chasing after kids, it was amazing to unwind in the jacuzzi or enjoy a quiet moment in the sauna. Such a luxury!The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had a warm, cozy feel. We loved the spacious living area and outdoor space, perfect for family time or just relaxing in the evening.We would absolutely return and highly recommend this vacation home to any families—especially those traveling with young children. It truly made our vacation stress-free and unforgettable.

Excellent Property

We take a yearly trip with the family ( three generations) and need a big place that we can all enjoy together. Chateau Bernina was a great place for all of us to relax and enjoy quality time together, playing games and hang out. The house itself has so much available you don't even need to go anywhere to have a good time. Beautiful house, great location...a really good time. Thank you!

Great stay for young & old

The location is in a quiet friendly neighborhood close to nice spots like the Mountain History Museum. Check-in was simple, the house was accessed using a number code. The pool was already prepared for us and the barbecue grill was set up to use. Very clean house, and plenty of space for our big group including toddlers and their great-grandparent with limited mobility. Would definitely recommend and consider returning

Chateau

This is our second stay at the chateau and there are many more stays to come. We decided on our very first stay last year, that this will be our family vacation house from now on. In the past, Christmas was our only family vacation but since we found this chateau, our family decided to add a second family vacation's per year because we can’t stay away! (The Host) Micheal, is very pleasant, professional and always available. We couldn’t be happier and can’t wait to make more beautiful family memories here for years and years to come.

About the host

Hosted by Michael Veksler

Host profile image
Los Angeles born and raised. My family and I have been going to Lake Arrowhead for over 30 years.

Why they chose this property

As a child, my parents have been taking me to Lake Arrowhead for summer vacations. This place has a unique feature about it that draws good common people together to enjoy the beauty of this wonderful place. When we found this home and all of the wonderful amenities it had, we couldn't believe it was ours to own. I think from seeing the pictures you can tell that we pay close attention to making it a comfortable place for us and for all to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

This 4,774 sq. ft. home comes with 5 separate bedrooms and three of the five having their own full bathrooms. The loft is big, allowing children to enjoy climbing a tree house like ladder to their secret den to play. The home has a garage for one car and the driveway can fit an additional 4 cars. The large indoor jacuzzi and sauna are my favorite amenities of the house. Going up to the "lake house" with the family to unwind in the spa room, melts all your worries away. The road is public which is maintained, plowed and won't spoil your vacation when there is light snow.
