About the host
Hosted by Melhiem/Albert
We love the mountains! We live in Orange County, CA and live life in the fast lane. We can't wait to escape to the mountains every chance we get. We started our short term rentals to share our passion for the mountains and beautiful, well designed spaces with people like you.
Why they chose this property
We acquired the Castle at an auction. It was a sad Castle because it had been vacant since 2007 when the market crashed and the owners at the time let it go. The bank owned it and finally in 2017, put it up for auction. We discovered it while renovating another property in the area and were walking the dog in a new area. We couldn't get into the house but managed to climb up a ladder to look in a window and were amazed at what we views!! We were immediately captured. We were able to acquire the Castle at the auction and began renovations, finishing them just in time for Thanksgiving 2017. Why this property? It has majestic views that are priceless and it was built by a German engineer and is the most solid residence that I've ever experienced. The house was left with dishes, silverware, thousands of books, personal letters, and much more. We were able to get to the know the builders of the house through these letters (they passed away years ago), and we wanted to make it come alive again and share it with as many people as we can. A guest recently posted this review on another website. Here is what Pedro had to say..."Back in January, I wanted to give my father in law a life experience rather than merely participate in the event of celebrating his birthday this past April 7. The conundrum was this: What do you choose as an experience for a man that has pretty much done everything, has traveled much of the world several times, lives overlooking the blue Pacific from the Malibu cliffs, and is not much into senseless, materialistic consumerism or technology and tech gadgets, as we know them? I remembered that he once had told me that he at one point though of buying a secondary home in Lake Arrowhead, and that he loved the place. (Continued below under UNique Benefits)
What makes this property unique
I also remembered that he had not been to the area in at least 10 years, so I made it my goal to find a ‘perfect’ house for the entire family (6 of us, as the main nucleus) to celebrate and honor him, on or near the lake. When I set the parameters my search for the area, over 70 listings showed up as part of the search. It didn’t take much time for me, though. My eyes automatically fixated on the fourth listing. The views were simply mesmerizing and, until I actually arrived at The Castle this weekend, I thought that perhaps Photoshop had been an enhancer, if not a co-creator of such a magnificent setting! How very wrong I was and how very happy being wrong made me and my family! The views!!! YES, THE VIEWS!!! They are simply ridiculous from every window in this place and from every room! Including the bathrooms. Simply stunning! And outside. Oh, the surrounding environs…! Prepare to gasp here too at the breathtaking gorgeousness of the natural setting. If you are looking for spectacular, gasp and drop your jaw open majesty and beauty, then do not think too much or doubt at all: JUMP INTO DECISIVE ACTION and book this place as soon as you come across its listing! As if the Nature and the house itself as as a physical space were not glorious enough, a huge realization came to me as I went from room to room, inspecting, admiring and looking for something to perhaps dislike or improve upon… It became clear to me that The Castle is not a transitional lodging nor a rental space: THIS IS A HOME. An exquisitely conceived, decorated, maintained and lovingly cared for home! Everything here is top notch. Everything here is spotless. The attention to detail, and the extras in this home are as ridiculous as the views it boasts. I cannot extol Lisa’s role enough as the keeper and facilitator in this amazing experience that is The Castle at Lake Arrowhead.
