Built in the 1960s with a classic Scandinavian soul and thoughtfully refreshed for modern comfort, this iconic A-frame sits tucked in the pines just steps from Lake Arrowhead Village and the lake itself. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with mountain light. A Nordic wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room. And outside, the pines stretch as far as you can see.
Whether you’re escaping with your partner for a few quiet days, or bringing the kids for a proper mountain adventure Fern Dell has exactly the right energy for both.
Walk through the door and the A-frame does what A-frames do best — it stops you in your tracks. The soaring peaked ceilings, warm wood tones, and wall of windows create a space that feels both dramatic and deeply cozy all at once.
The wood-burning fireplace is the heart of the cabin. Light it on arrival and you’ll barely want to leave. Curl up with a book, pour something good, and let the mountain do the rest.
When you’re ready to explore, everything is right outside your door — the Village shops and restaurants are a short stroll away, and your complimentary lake access passes open up the trails, swimming spots, and fishing areas along the water’s edge. It’s the rare cabin where you truly don’t need a car once you arrive.
Your stay includes complimentary lake access passes for the full property, unlocking Lake Arrowhead’s trails, swimming spots, and fishing areas for everyone in your group. The lake is just a short stroll from the cabin, making it easy to wander down for a morning swim, an afternoon on the trail, or a quiet hour with a fishing line in the water. We’re happy to share our favorite spots just ask when you arrive.

About the area
Lake Arrowhead, California, affectionately known as "The Alps of Southern California," is a picturesque mountain resort paradise that offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Nestled in the majestic mountains of the San Bernardino National Forest, this charming area is renowned for its stunning natural beauty, outdoor recreation, and quaint village atmosphere.
The centerpiece of the region is the magnificent Lake Arrowhead, a private lake that boasts crystal-clear waters ideal for boating, fishing, and lakeside picnicking. While access to the lake itself is restricted to property owners, visitors can enjoy the beauty of the lake on the Lake Arrowhead Queen paddleboat tour, which provides a narrated history of the area and breathtaking views of the surrounding forest and grand waterfront homes.
The Lake Arrowhead Village is the heart of the community, offering a delightful mix of shopping, dining, and entertainment. The village's Swiss chalet-style architecture adds to the alpine ambiance, and throughout the year, it hosts a variety of events and concerts that bring the community together.
For outdoor enthusiasts, the area is a haven for activities such as hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. The region's trails, such as the Pacific Crest Trail and the local favorite, the Arrowhead Ridge Trail, offer panoramic vistas and the chance to spot local wildlife. In the winter, the nearby ski resorts of Snow Valley and Big Bear provide excellent opportunities for skiing and snowboarding.
History buffs will appreciate the area's rich past, which can be explored through visits to local landmarks like the Tudor House, a historic entertainment venue that once served as a speakeasy during Prohibition. The Mountain History Museum also offers insights into the area's cultural heritage, including its Native American roots and development as a mountain resort.
Accommodations in Lake Arrowhead range from cozy cabins to luxurious lodges, ensuring that there's a comfortable place to stay for every type of traveler.
