Bootlegger's Run

We loved our stay at the Bootlegger’s Run!! We are a family of 5 with kids ages 10, 11 & 13 and we all had a great time! The drive up to the cabin is very narrow and curvy so if you’re going during the snowy season it might be a bit rough. There’s two amazing bathtubs and had to enjoy both, my favorite one was the one with the sky light! Every room in the house has amazing views so if you love nature then you’ll love staying here! Tim was very friendly and helpful and easy to get a hold of with any needs we had. I can see this cabin becoming a yearly family tradition.

We've rented cabins in the Arrowhead/Big Bear area for over five years, but this one truly stood out as the best. It felt like staying at a beloved family member's home—warm, inviting, and thoughtfully curated with cozy rustic decor in soft neutrals, natural wood accents, and elegant touches throughout.The amenities were exceptional: high-quality lavender-eucalyptus soaps and lotions in every bathroom and kitchen, plentiful fluffy towels, plush bedding on king/queen beds, spa-like showers with rainfall heads, and thoughtful extras like travel-sized essentials. The availability of propane tanks for the grill, fire pit, and heaters was another great aspect, making outdoor evenings effortless and magical under string lights.As a family of four with our pet, we loved the added pet amenities—feeding bowls and dog beds throughout the house—plus plenty of safe space to roam.The private, wooded location was perfect: serene yet close to the village, with stunning views and peaceful mornings on the wraparound deck. The host was responsive, friendly, and provided clear instructions and a helpful guide.We stayed six days and hated to leave—this soul-restoring sanctuary perfectly blends modern comfort with nature's beauty. Highly recommend!

Beautiful location, cozy, excellent getaway for the small family.

Great communication. Very cozy and remote.

The host and the cabin are excellent, as advertised. The view is terrific and you can see Lake Arrowhead from several areas on the deck.

Just a great place to stay in all respects!

Location is fantastic, just minutes from the village. Cabin amenities were thoughtful. Cabin layout is perfect for the amount of guests allowed. I only wish there was ONE larger tv somewhere within the cabin - for those of us who enjoy watching sports.My only two complaints: 1) Bed sheets smelled like mildew - we rewashed them ourselves the day after our arrival.2) We recived a noise complaint from a neighbor at 3PM on a sunny Saturday which I thought was quite ridiculous. Seemingly, the neighbors are used to guests making visits based solely on serenity. Well, it was my 38th birthday, and my group was more than respectful of the surrounding neighbors. Especially in the evenings.

Very clean and wonderful place to stay!

The property has a lot of history, very cute. The back deck was awesome!

We enjoyed a peaceful long weekend at Bootlegger's Run. The house is as described. Check in, check out and communication was all very easy. Wi-fi worked well for a zoom call. All of the supplies were available in the kitchen to cook meals. I appreciated the starter set up Keurig pods. We enjoyed the outdoor shower too! The house is close to everything we wanted...Lake Arrowhead Village, Blue Jay, Cedar Glen. Everything about the house is easy and comfortable. Thank you for a great place to stay!

This amazing property is clean and well maintained! The views of the lake from the deck are incredible, and the sunsets are magical. We spent our nights enjoying the fire pit and jacuzzi. The kitchen was easy to use and well stocked with all the dishes and cookware we needed. Close to Arrowhead Village but quiet and serene! Overall an amazing stay

Lovely little home nestled in the mountain treetops. Area was quiet and peaceful with breathtaking views. Would definitely go back again. The owner was also responsive and helpful.

We had a wonderful time nestled in the trees. The deck has gorgeous views of the greenery. The spa worked wonderfully and we used it several times. We'll be sure to come visit again.

We had the perfect getaway. The cabin is equally beautiful and comfy/cozy. We had everything we needed and then some. Our host was easy and wonderful to work with. We absolutely stay at Bootleggers Run again!

Great cabin up in the mountains. Serene and secluded, yet equipped with modern amenities. The deck offers astounding views of Lake Arrowhead. The hot tub further enhances the already amazing deck experience. My family had an awesome fall getaway. We hope to revisit and explore other seasons at The Bootlegger's Run.

We stayed at Bootlegger’s Run the weekend of our wedding in Lake Arrowhead and enjoyed the beautiful cabin and hot tub. The cabin is so cozy. Our host was very responsive and helpful with a few questions. We would definitely come back!

My wife and I needed a retreat to relax and get away from the city. I wanted a secluded mountain cabin with a beautiful view, nicely appointed with all the amenities. I found it at the “Bootleggers Run” in Sky Forest. The view overlooking the lake is spectacular. Loved to soak in the hot tub from the secluded deck as well as enjoy a second spacious deck with gas fire pit and sitting area and large table for eight. All of this and more! Inside, a cozy thoughtfully decorated mountain home. If space allowed I would talk about giant indoor copper bathtub, a second jetted tub in the master, and private outdoor shower. Well done Tim. Thanks for opening your home. To all considering this place. My advice. Don’t delay. If available, book it now!
