Sunset Lodge | Spacious Mountain Escape - Running Springs

Welcome to Sunset Lodge, a rustic cabin with breathtaking city views nestled on top of the pine mountains of Running Springs. This cozy space is a very close drive to Lake Arrowhead, Big Bear, hiking trails, and camping spots, Sunset Lodge is ideally located for all your summer & winter adventures. Cozy up by the one-of-a-kind 360 degree fireplace in the winter or gather by the refreshing waterfall feature in the front courtyard in the summer. Perfect for large families, with plenty of beds.

When you walk in, you are immediately greeted by the massive, 360 degree fireplace surrounded by large A-Frame windows with stunning sunset and city views. The chalet style, 20-foot vaulted wood ceilings make you feel like you are in a castle, and the soft, newly-installed carpet comforts your feet after you take off your shoes.

🍿 Entertainment 🍿
The open-concept entertainment area is divided into two wings. As you move to the right, you enter the tv area, featuring a spacious u-shaped stretch couch and oversized ottomans that you can attach to the foot of the couch to make it the perfect place for movie nights. Also at your disposal is the karaoke lover’s dream: a giant PA speaker with 2 microphones. And for the kids, there is also a large assortment of board games located under the tv in the entertainment center.

🍴Dining 🍴
To the left of the fireplace, and at the focal point of the lodge’s entertainment area, sits a custom-built, extra long dining table that extends to comfortably seat 12 people.

🍷 The Bar 🍷
After you enjoy a meal in the dining area, you can move over to the craftsman oak wet bar. The bar comes stocked with a drink maker which can double as a milkshake maker, and margarita and wine glasses are provided as a courtesy.

☀️Deck w/ STUNNING views ☀️
As you step outside of the lodge’s entertainment area, you enter a massive, 500 square foot deck with scenic mountain AND city views. The only other way to get views like this is by hopping on a helicopter. Not only do you have the jaw-dropping views, but this deck was made to entertain. There is ample and varied seating, with 1 couple’s swing bench, 3 sets of outdoor couple’s tables, and a larger patio table for 6. *I must note that the main road (technically highway) is about 200 feet in front and below of the back deck, so there is the occasional car passing by.

🛏️ Accommodation 🛏️
The Sunset Lodge has more than enough room to entertain 4 families. Boasting 4 bedrooms, an attached bonus room and 3.5 bathrooms, this 2,700 square feet cabin will not disappoint. Sleeping arrangements include 2 California King beds, 2 Queen beds, 4 twin xl bunk beds, 2 futons, 1 day bed w/ a pull out bed underneath. Additional folding beds and inflatable mattresses are available upon request. It is important to note that the two upstairs bedrooms are secluded through stairs, but dont have a door to close them off from the rest of the house. Also, the bonus room is attached to one of the upstairs bedrooms (though it does have a door for privacy).

⭐️ Courtyard w/ Hot Tub ⭐️
Enjoy the newly renovated front courtyard which comes with a premium HotSpring Limelight Hot Tub. The serene waterfall feature and beautiful string lights add to the ambiance, especially around dusk.

⚠️ Safety Monitoring ⚠️
Note: We do have Ring cameras set up on the exterior of the home, pointed at public areas. We also have Minut noise monitoring devices that do not record audio, but do monitor noise levels and send automated alerts to guests when noise it too high to address high noise before it becomes an issue with the neighbors. These devices are not actively monitored by any of your hosts (and never reviewed for the vast majority of guests). They are primarily in place:
1. To protect against false accusations of high noise.
2. To help provide guests with feedback of potentially high noise so we are able to avoid any issues from the neighbors or code enforcement.
3. For liability purposes in case of any accidents during the stay.
4. For homeowners home monitoring needs outside of guest stays (package arrivals, trespassing, etc).

⚠️ Quiet Hours and Noise ⚠️
Quiet hours are between 10pm and 8am. At that time, we will ask that you do your best not to wake the neighbors. This is especially important if your group is outside between these hours. 10pm is also the soft limit for Hot Tub usage. Per San Bernardino County noise regulations, the use of amplified music is not permitted at any time outside of the property, and if there is any music playing inside, doors and windows should be closed.

Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns regarding the county noise rules that via the Contact Host option. I will be happy to address any of them, as these are not meant to be overbearing or hinder the experience.
