About this property

WINTER = Snow/Ski. SPRING-SUMMER-FALL = Fish, Hike, Explore, Private Lake

ABOVE THE CLOUDS @ an approx elevation near 7,000 ft. nestled in a small town with a trout-stocked lake, located in between Big Bear and Lake Arrowhead. A classy choice with all the comforts of home!

* If you are looking for an amazing get-away – be it a few nights or a few weeks, consider this a top choice as it has all of the elegance and amenities for a luxurious stay and all the conveniences of home.

* The décor is 5-star. Nestle into bedding you will not want to get out of with mattress pads and dual-station electric warming blanket. Relax on the front porch with a book and a glass of wine. Dine at the table formally or bar-stool-it around the large center island and visit while “someone else” cooks. The spice cabinet is well-stocked. Dishwasher, Pot Belly Stove, Forced Air Heat, Fans in every room, Generac Generator, Puzzles, Games, Office Desk in the loft, 50” Flat-screen TV, Free WiFi, Cable, a Piano and more.

* Spend the day at the LAKE Beach, Fishing (stocked), or Boat Rentals. Hike. Explore the mountain and eateries. In the snowy months, SKI nearby at Snow Valley or Big Bear. Lake? Many hiking trails and off-road areas. In the summer, walks around the lake, non motorized boat rentals, trout-stocked lake for fishing, beach activities, Farmer’s Market in Running Springs, and Restaurants and Pubs. In the winter, sledding & skiing with Snow Valley just minutes away, and Big Bear approximately 16 miles away, hot chocolate while watching the snow fall.

* Provided for your stay and convenience: bedding, bath towels, hair dryer, body and hair soap + make-up towels, fully stocked kitchen (dishes/cookware), appliances and sub-appliances. Plus a reasonable supply of TP, PT, dish soap and kitchen trash bags.

* Adult and very-well-behaved-kid friendly. As much as I love them, NO pets, due to accidental situations and allergies of guests. It's definitely a pride of ownership property open to pride of use guests.

A HIDDEN GEM with cabins that sit at the highest elevation in the SB National Forest at 7,000 ft (approx.1/2 hr from Big Bear, and even closer to Snow Valley) with its own resort lake that, while private, is open to the public/guests for swimming (fee) end May to October.

The cabin is sanitized between stays. Please bring your own masks and other personal protective wear based on preference and current guidelines at time of stay. If you are new to higher elevation, my suggestion would be to hydrate well before arriving.

It's so pretty and relaxing in Green Valley Lake!

INQUIRE about weekly discount. Check weather: Zip 92341. Snow vehicle often required in winter (AWD-4WD and chains). No cancellations due to weather. Host will provide driveway plow day of arrival if needed, guest responsible for additional plow needs during stay. Sunblock often needed in the sunny summer months. Beautiful days, cool evenings. Generally 25 degrees nicer than down the hill :) Host reserves the right to adjust the minimum nite stay during peak/holiday/snow dates.

If you send an inquiry or booking request, be sure and tell me about you/your group and vacation plan.

Perfect cabin for our family

We loved Kelly’s cabin, beautiful, plenty of space, lots of warm blankets to keep us cozy & a well stocked kitchen. Kelly was very helpful ensuring we knew what to expect and responded quickly to all our questions. The walk to the lake was nice and close, beautiful area and friendly neighbors made it so enjoyable. Thank you Kelly for sharing your beautiful cabin with us for Christmas.

Family trip

The cabin was nice, but my family and I did not feel comfortable. Our kids were with us and the host found the need to remind us that her cabin was not kid proof, and to make sure we take care of her cabin. We also received a text message from the owner two days before check out reminding us about checkout instructions and asking if anything was broken. The day before checkout she asked if we were all checked out. I reminded her our checkout wasn't until tomorrow but we would gladly leave if she wanted us too. We'll need a refund for the extra day of us leaving early. Our family go on winter vacations yearly for the pass 15yrs and I have never felt so uncomfortable as we did staying here. We are not a rowdy family at all and cause no trouble, in fact half the day we wasn't even there in her cabin, we were out doing activities around the city. We paid a cleaning fee and was advised to take our trash with us. We definitely would not rent from Kelly again.

Quiet Cabin Perfect for Family Time

Great little winter getaway for our family. Our boys loved the cabin and the quiet snowy backyard. We loved the quiet and peacefulness of this place. We went to Big Bear during the day for the snow tubing and restaurants and shopping but it was nice to get away from the craziness and relax at the cabin! The cabin was clean and so cute! Definitely recommend.

Wonderful!

The check-in process was incredibly easy. The home was neat as a pin and very well decorated. My bed was so comfortable! Slept like a baby with the windows open. The kids had an absolute blast as we were a 7 minute walk to the lake. Locals were very friendly and welcoming. The home was well stocked with kitchenware and spices and the entire family enjoyed a relaxing holiday. We'll be back!

Perfect quiet getaway with everything you need

My family and I live in the LA area and wanted to go somewhere local to have our kids try skiing for the first time. This cabin was perfectly situated a 15 minute drive from Snow Valley, which was fabulous. What we didn't know when we booked it was that Green Valley Lake is a small, quiet and adorable little village that we now want to return to in the summer. While I am sure Big Bear and Lake Arrowed were bustling for the holiday weekend, GVL was calm and serene. Now, the cabin. It was perfect! Communication with our host great and the instructions for the house were easy to follow. We really appreciated the detail she included to help us understand how things worked and where things were. The house has everything you need. Very well equipped and stocked. Beds are comfy and warm (heated blankets!!). Piano in the living room was a nice touch. Super clean and super convenient to the lake and the few shops in town. We asked the host if we could come again in the summer. And we would rent again in the winter. A+!

perfect winter getaway

My family and I had an amazing time at this lovely cabin in GVL. We wanted a cabin that had plenty of snow to build snowmen and easy access to a sledding area. This cabin did not disappoint. The cabin was conveniently located between snow valley and lake arrowhead (Win win)!! The property manager was wonderful. She was warm, professional and prompt in responding to emails or text messages. Her cabin was nicely furnished with all the amenities and had a cozy feel. My kids (7yo and 4yo) absolutely loved the winter vacation getaway here. They even enjoyed the short walk to the playground by the lake. We would love to return again.

Wonderful cabin for our family of 4!

We had a wonderful trip to GVL! The host answered all our questions, and the process was easy to check in and access the amenities (boat, beach, etc.). Our kids (ages 6 and 8) really enjoyed sleeping in the loft area. Only issue (minor) was that the VRBO app and site show the property right next to the lake. It’s actually further back than we expected, but certainly still within a short walk. All in all, a wonderful cabin, we had a great time and we’d highly recommend it!

A relaxing home away from home

This cabin is as functional as it is pretty. The decor is amazing...it's just a gorgeous place inside and out. And the owner has anticipated every need. It has all the amenities and niceties and necessities that one could ask for...from pantry staples, to cozy extra blankets, to appliances, to ... you name it. And it's so clean! We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend at the cabin. We walked around the lake & did some fishing. But our main goal was just to relax. Communication with the owner was very easy and responsive. We would highly recommend this cabin.

About the host

Hosted by Kelly G.

Host profile image
Hello! All I can say is that I bought this cabin because it has such a good feel, it's 3/10 a mile from the lake but set back so you don't have to hear everyone's band or party going on if you choose not to. I live there 1/2 the time, so it's stocked with quality and I really want conscientious guests who will care for it as if it were their own. A big cabin that's in the top of the choices at this nightly rate?! Who knew!!

Why they chose this property

Many neighbors photograph our cabin because it sits so prominent and is so beautiful. It has all of the perfect touches. I really like guests who want to get away and enjoy their vacation, who also take great pride in caring for someone else's property. I've had GREAT guests!!
