While this sumptuous home is 80 miles to the west of LA, it could certainly be considered the Hollywood of the mountains. And the famous certainly realised this, commissioning world-class architects to build uniquely palatial houses in the San Bernadino Mountains and around the lake. This pair of sister cabins suits that environment perfectly, ensconced in the forest with the lake just 100 metres from the door. You’ll get a palpable sense of being in a woodland glade as the dappled sunlight filters through the trees into the expansive living room, decorated deftly in green and cream. The whole home has a modern rustic feel, with contemporary equipment set into old-world décor, and the twin cabin arrangement makes the home both sociable and intimate at the same time. There’s a chef’s kitchen for group meals and a kitchenette and cosy dining nook for a more personal meal. While the furnishings are easy on the eye, you’ll want a peek at the lake through the window as you sip your coffee, or from the extensive decking overlooking the woods outside. You’re a two-minute drive from groceries and the Village, but you’ll soon want to return to this opulent cabin in the forest of stars.

*No wood burning is allowed – the forest is flammable
*No parties, events or loud noise, please
