Many people don’t realize it snows in Southern California. But snowfall is a regular occurrence in the San Bernardino Mountains. In fact, we’ve already had several snows already this season and look forward to welcoming even more. When sparkling snow covers the pine trees, Lake Arrowhead is particularly picturesque – perfect for a mountain getaway. Book a winter vacation today because, when you arrive, there will be plenty of fun wintertime activities to enjoy:

Inner Tubing

Sledding is a classic wintertime activity. And Snowdrift Snow Tubing Park, in nearby Running Springs, offers snow tube runs for all ages. Natural and man-made snow combine to give a great base for inner tubing, building snowmen, and other fun family-friendly activities!“Southern California’s largest and oldest snow tubing park,” Snowdrift is open 7 days a week, and costs just $17 per person (cash only). Parking is an additional $6.

Skiing and Snowboarding
Snow Valley is just a 30-minute drive from Lake Arrowhead. The resort offers skiing and snowboarding terrain for all levels and abilities. The recent 12-to 19-inch natural snowfall has led to open terrain parks, for anyone who wants to practice their jumps and tricks or just enjoys a slow snow plow down the mountain. Snow Valley features ski runs ranging from bunny slopes to double black diamond expert runs. Make sure you check out their Current Deals and Offers page for the latest bargains.

SkyPark Santa’s Village
SkyPark (Santa’s year-round home), is “a North Pole-themed outdoor adventure park with attractions, restaurants and shops in a historic log cabin village.” During the winter season, the skating rink transforms into a charming outdoor ice-skating rink, under the pines. But there is much more to this attraction than Santa Clause-related Christmas activities.

Shopping and Dining
With over 50 shops and restaurants, Lake Arrowhead Village, is a charming, Nordic-style village. Our most recent blog post touches on some of the shops and restaurants available in the Village. The entire mountain is beautiful year-round, but particularly during the winter.

Watching a Movie
Frosty temps make the idea of a movie and popcorn in a cozy theater appealing. Blue Jay Cinema, in neighboring Blue Jay, screens the latest movies in their four theaters. Don’t miss Tuesday Bargain Evening, tickets are just $6 per person!

Cozying Up Around the Fire
Many of our rental properties feature fireplaces or wood burning stoves. Snuggling up in front of a cozy fire while the forest outside frosts itself with icy splendor, is a winter activity you’ll want to repeat again and again.
