About the host
Hosted by Russ McGregor
Our family began coming up to the lake in 2006 to look for vacation property. Once we found and purchased this property, we spent many weekends at the lake, by ourselves and with friends. We enjoy the lake as a family, but as the kids are getting older, we've decided to share our home away from home with other families to create their own memories at the lake.
Why they chose this property
Lake Arrowhead is very close to our home, yet we always feel that we're far away on vacation when we're at the lake. We enjoyed coming to the lake with friends and extended family and have done so for years. The house has 3 levels, so there is room for small groups to have separate activities. The kids can enjoy watching movies or playing games downstairs, while the adults can enjoy ourselves on the deck or out on the patio.
What makes this property unique
When we bought the cabin 11 years ago, it was a true mountain cabin that had been partially converted as a live-above office by a previous owner. While we loved the location and roomy feel of the 3 story 'cabin', we felt it required a refresh to make it our home.
While we have updated some elements of the house with newer fixtures and appliances, we have tried to keep much of the original Mid-Century character of the home. The main floor bathroom still has the original 'Ming Green' fixtures from 1963, and most of the original tongue and groove woodwork has been intact. We furnished the rooms with teak items appropriate for the era, and some furniture that we built ourselves. Like all labors of love, our lake home in a work in progress. We still have more to do, and we invite and welcome ideas for future projects.
We truly hope our guests enjoy our 'restofied' mountain getaway as much as we do.
