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!

Awesome Stay!

We had a wonderful time at Chateau Bernina! It was even bigger than I expected from the website. The entire house was very clean. We had everything we needed for our entire stay! The kitchen is fabulous with everything you need to make large dinners. We all thoroughly enjoyed the sauna, jacuzzi and pool table. Every room had a TV with Peacock and Netflix. Lake Arrowhead was so close-- 5 minute drive. We had planned on spending all our time at the lake but honestly, once we saw the house and explored ALL the floors, no one wanted to leave it! I will absolutely stay there again!

Glorious retreat

Our extended family had an absolutely wonderful stay! Our group included five adults and two children, and we had plenty of space to spread out. The hot tub and sauna were definitely the highlight, though we also loved the wood burning fireplace and recliners in the living room. The beds were all comfortable and everyone slept great. We did a lot of cooking and had all of the kitchen supplies we needed. The house is showing its age a bit, but that didn’t interfere with our stay at all. We had a bit of trouble with the Roku Tv (though we don’t use those ourselves and have no familiarity with the system). I might recommend bringing your own device and just connecting it to the TV (there are big TVs in all the rooms). Lake Arrowhead is a very easy drive, and there’s also a new Grocery Bargain Outlet right down the street. Overall, I would highly recommend this property, especially to large groups and families!

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!

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.

Celebration Cabin

Our stay was booked for a birthday celebration. We had a total of 11 adults and it fit all of us comfortably. Everything was great from communication with owner, the checkin process, cabin amenities , to parking. Everyone was raving about how much they loved the cabin. We are definitely coming back again. We enjoyed all the fireplaces in many living spaces, the giant couch for cozy fue pit talks and games. The pool table room was large and a fun activity. They provided shower towels for all of us. Each shower had shampoo, conditioner and body wash. The jacuzzi was indoor and very large. They provided towels for all of us as well. The out door deck was big and had an amazing view. The appliances were a great touch to make cooking easy. They provided pots, pans, extra towels, extra toilet paper, and trash bags. The heater in the house worked great for the large space it was heating. The home is very large and spacious. Parking indoors was an added bonus for one of the cars. Owner communicated with us very well and we felt right at home. The owner also accommodated our check in time. We didn’t want to leave at checkout because we had so much fun. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your cabin we will be back.

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

A relaxing weekend

My girlfriends and I decided to go away for the weekend to relax and reconnect and Chateau Bernina delivered. First of all, check in is seamless! I never met the owner and I had a question for Michael and he responded immediately..very impressive response!! The Chateau was clean and the home was equipped with essentials in the kitchen and bathrooms. The bedrooms were clean and the beds were all comfy. The jets for the jacuzzi in the master bedroom did not work, but the indoor jacuzzi and sauna worked well. The open floor plan had a fantastic great room which included the kitchen, medium sized butcher block and a table with four chairs in the kitchen as well as a dining table that seats 10. There was a ceiling fan with a light fixture, but the bulb was really dim. That was a small thing that we didn't worry about, we worked with it! The neighborhood is very quiet and friendly. We saw folks walking and jogging so we joined in and made friends. Everything advertised was corrent and our stay was wonderful. Our group will return to Chateau Bernina!

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.
