About this home
Welcome to Fairytale Cottage—a romantic mountain retreat where storybook charm meets the beauty of Lake Arrowhead living. This enchanting 1-bedroom, 1-bath, 440 sq. ft. cottage proves that the best things truly do come in small packages. Thoughtfully designed to feel warm, intimate and inviting, it’s the perfect escape from the everyday. Step outside and nature becomes part of the home. In spring, blooming dogwoods surround the cottage with color; summer brings cool mountain evenings beneath towering Redwoods that have stood here for generations; fall transforms the landscape into a spectacular display of rich autumn foliage; and winter brings the magic of a mountain getaway. Located within walking distance of Lake Arrowhead Village, enjoy dining, shopping, entertainment and the charm of one of Southern California’s most beloved mountain communities just moments from your door. Whether you're dreaming of a cozy full-time residence, romantic second home, weekend escape or income-producing vacation rental, Fairytale Cottage offers incredible versatility. Previously enjoyed as a successful short-term rental, its size, charm and location create wonderful investment potential. No lake rights—but with the Village, mountain trails, four beautiful seasons and endless adventure nearby, you may find the greatest luxury here is simply slowing down. Fairytale Cottage isn't just a home—it’s a feeling. Now it's ready for its next chapter!
