Escape the city and experience being surrounded by tall pine trees and clear, starry nights. Close to the lake, this lovely cabin is located on the quiet north side of the lake in Fawnskin, away from the hectic town environment, yet a short drive to the ski slopes and other winter activities. In summer, the north side is the best location for access to bike paths, hiking trails, and boat & kayak launches.

It features two bedrooms plus a loft with a pull-out sofa. Free WIFI, hugefront deck and plenty of parking space off the road. A fully fenced back yard.

Located in the San Bernardino National Forest, complete with forest critters, trash must be secured. Keep in mind you are in a forest setting with wild animals such as bears, coyotes, raccoons, etc. Never leave young children unattended, even in the fenced back yard.


This cabin is located in a quiet, family neighborhood. If you are seeking a party house, this is NOT for you. The community has strict good neighbor regulations. Quiet hours are 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. Excessive noise, amplified music, and/or unruly behavior has severe consequences, including a $500 fine for a first offense; $1,000 fine for a second offense. My policy is immediate eviction if law enforcement is contacted.

Parking for up to three vehicles on the circular driveway. Parking on the street is prohibited by the city to allow space for snow plows.

Sorry, no pets. Only certified service dogs excepted.

Renting a cabin in the mountains is not like renting a house in the city. Weather conditions can change dramatically in the mountains. While rare, if there are power outages, highway closures, severe weather warnings, or fire alerts I receive them on my phone. Therefore, I must have rapid, direct communication with my guests. As a condition of renting this property, I MUST have a valid working phone number for texts and/or voice contact. Any guests unwilling to provide a valid number, or communicate by text will not be accepted.

    The cabin was beautiful and very clean, and we had a great time renting it! The check in process was super easy, the drive to the city wasn’t long, and the cabin gave us so many memories! Would 100% do it again.

    This cabin is nestled in a beautiful location away from all the busyness of the town. We had a very relaxing few days in this adorable cabin. The property owner communicates very efficiently. The check in and check out process was very easy.

    We really enjoyed our stay at this property, FL very cosy from the second we walked in. Using the fireplace was our highlight. The only feedback I will have is that the paintings in the house were a little creepy, and the bathroom downstairs had no heating and was very cold. Also took a little while to figure out how to turn on the lights as a lot of the lights were unplugged.

    Loved this property and the communication from the owners. Couldn’t have been easier, all around. Thank you Sharon for helping my family have a very enjoyable Thanksgiving trip in Fawnskin! Also we loved that this cabin was in Fawnskin, away from the city.

    Property was well represented in the photos and description. We were so glad to have the laundry facilities and deck. Very easy to get to the lake and wonderful, quiet neighborhood.

    The Sheldon’s Fawnskin cabin is a terrific little get away cabin. I was very happy with how clean the place was. The beds were very comfortable too. The neighbor is very quiet and peaceful. The view from their deck is exquisite. I stayed with my boyfriend the 1st night, then the following day our two good friends joined us. The cabin gets chilly at night but there is a fireplace and a great heater. There are tons of board games too. I would highly recommend this cabin.
