Good to know

★ FEATURED IN DWELL MAGAZINE - JULY 2024 ★ ★ FEATURED IN MOUNTAIN LIVING - JAN 2025 ★ Nestled perfectly between Lake Arrowhead and majestic Big Bear Lake, this historic A-Frame was the pioneering vision in the mid-50s of a local high school woodshop teacher who, with his family, laid each beam by hand. As the area's first A-Frame, it's not just a stay but a storied experience—romance and mountain sophistication intertwined in a setting so breathtaking, it appears lifted straight from a design magazine. ● ROMANTIC RETREAT: Ideal for couples seeking a secluded getaway or a small family desiring an intimate escape. Every corner whispers romance, making it your perfect haven for creating lasting memories. ● DESIGNER ELEGANCE: Immerse yourself in an environment where luxury meets style. Furnished with exquisite pieces from renowned brands like Restoration Hardware, Arhaus, Rove Concepts, and HD Buttercup, we've crafted a space that's as beautiful as it is comfortable. Sleep in the lap of luxury with our high-end linen bedding from Quince and experience unparalleled comfort on a Helix Elite mattress. Enjoy a spa-like experience in our fully-renovated, spa-like bathroom with bath towels from Brooklinen. ● BREATHTAKING AMBIANCE: Unwind in a cedar hot tub nestled among natural boulders, offering a unique blend of rustic charm and modern luxury. Indoors, a classic, stylish gas fireplace sets the perfect mood for cozy evenings. ● ENTERTAINMENT & COMFORT: Stay entertained with a 55" Samsung Frame TV, high-speed WiFi, and a selection of classic board games. Enjoy rich espresso and coffee from our Nespresso Vertuo machine, and charge your phone wirelessly at your bedside with our cleverly disguised vintage book charger. ● ADVENTURE AWAITS: Step outside to explore the stunning surroundings. Hiking trails lead you through granite boulders to the picturesque Arrowbear Lake. Adventure lovers will appreciate our proximity to Snow Valley, sledding spots, Running Springs, SkyPark at Santa's Village, Lake Arrowhead, and Big Bear Lake. ● FORGET THE CONVENTIONAL: This cabin transcends the typical glamping or mountain stay, offering an ambiance more akin to a romantic speakeasy than your grandpa's cabin. It's a special place where every detail has been thoughtfully curated to ensure your stay is nothing short of extraordinary. Join us at Arrowbear Lake, where luxury, romance, and adventure intertwine, creating the perfect backdrop for a getaway you'll reminisce about for years to come. ☆☆☆☆☆☆ For more, please see some kind words from past guests: "My husband & I had an amazing time staying at Romantic A-Frame Cabin! Everything was exactly how you would picture a romantic trip being with your significant other... The serenity & peacefulness was unbeatable! Coming from the city, this trip was a breath of fresh air. Truly. Hosts were polite & respectful, the scenery was amazing, and all the amenities were a great plus! All in all, a lovely time. Would highly recommend to everyone!" - Amy "We loved our stay at tiny frame! The space is very cozy and the decor is well thought out and chic. Every item you can possibly think of was available in the tiny frame from kitchen tools to home accessories and even board games- more than any other Airbnb we have stayed in. The fire place, hot tub and a-frame among the trees and boulders were the icing on the cake. Great location to visit big bear and arrowhead. Brent and Jackie are top notch hosts!" - Natalie "Truly one of the best Airbnbs I have ever rented! The Tiny Triangle is a gorgeous cabin with beautiful artistic details and with all items needed. The kitchen was wonderfully done and with all the utensils you could need, all of which were high quality. Brent was a great host, quickly responds and looks out for you in terms of weather or settling in and more! Absolutely would rent again." - Priscilla

Other Details to Note

We think the most important part of any vacation is being able to settle into a place that is not only beautiful and inspiring but also comfortable. We wanted to curate a mountain cabin experience that was luxurious yet cozy. That's why our bed is awesome - Helix's best mattress, the "Midnight Elite." It's why we have down comforters, down pillows, and luxury cotton bedding from Quince. We think bathrooms should feel elegant and intimate. It's why we picked the softest Brooklinen towels we could find. Restoration Hardware lighting that sets a mood and brass fixtures imported from Morocco showcase the bespoke zellige tile. We think you will fall hard for the Tiny Triangle but if you're not instantly infatuated let us know and we will make it right.

My husband, son, and I had a wonderful stay at this beautiful A-Frame cabin! Nestled between Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear, it has a unique vintage charm, thoughtful design, and was spotlessly clean. From the stunning views throughout the cabin to the cozy fireplace, relaxing jacuzzi, and luxurious touches, everything felt perfectly curated. The hosts, Brent and Jacqueline, were incredibly responsive and provided clear instructions, including a helpful video, and great local tips. This little cabin was peaceful, stylish, and truly immaculate. We’d definitely stay again!

The cabin is thoughtfully planned, well furnished and beautiful. My wife and I had a fun and relaxing stay. Being a bit hard to see from the road, I could see how guests finding the cabin could present a challenge if we had a less proactive host, but Brent gave clear and timely instructions and we found it without issue. The home was available on time, clean and well stocked. All the features worked well, including the hot tub and fireplace, which you turn on and off with a remote (pretty fancy). I will be recommending this home to friends and family.

I had such a lovely and peaceful stay at the Tiny Triangle! The A-frame cabin was exactly as pictured—charming, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. The space was spotless and well-equipped with everything I needed for a relaxing getaway. The views from the loft and the deck were beautiful, even more magical in the rain. Luckily it rained when we were there ughhh most magical experience. It was definitely cozy. You can tell Brent and Jackie put a lot of love into this place. Communication was great, and everything went smoothly from check-in to check-out. I’d definitely recommend this cabin to anyone looking for a quiet retreat in nature with great vibes and comfort!

It’s moody and beautiful! The peened doorhandles are weighty and luxurious feeling. The color and texture of both the backsplash tile and shower tile are phenomenal. Falling asleep on the couch to the fireplace was hypnotic and soothing. Home has all the amenities you need want and need. All in all every inch of the home was atmospheric, thought out, and picture-perfect.

Our stay at Brent's cabin was amazing! My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights. Check-in was easy, and the cabin was stunning and looked exactly like the photos! The view from inside and outside the cabin was equally breathtaking. Brent has truly thought of everything, including a QR code for the wi-fi and a QR code for a video on running the dishwasher! Everything was so easy to use and navigate. My husband and I have a lot of dietary restrictions, so having a well-equipped kitchen on vacations is a must. We cooked every day and were pleasantly surprised that there were spices available! Loved that there were wine glasses too, so we could easily enjoy wine in the hot tub. The fireplace was such a vibe as well, even in May! We can't wait to come back in the future!

Very cute place! We loved the plentiful kitchen tools to cook all of our meals at the house. We stayed in May and saw lots of birds and blooming daffodils in the yard. We can’t wait to come back in the snowy season!

Brent’s home was beautiful and exactly what I was looking for to decompress from a very stressful career. My husband and I didn’t want to leave and felt right at home. I would definitely book again and look forward to doing so in the winter. If you’re interested in escaping the city for a few days to cook, read, binge-watch, or write, this would be the place. Everything was so well thought out to make a person feel so welcome. Thank you for sharing your home!
