Southern California is full of unique places to stay and plan a getaway. However, there is only one place that really make you feel like royalty! Nestled deep in the forest near Lake Arrowhead, this castle is available for rent on Airbnb. The price per night may scare you off at first, but given that the chateau can sleep up to 16 people with seven bedrooms and seven and a half bathrooms, you’ll find that the chateau is ideal for sharing among a large group. Looking for a truly memorable vacation destination? Look no further than the castle in the forest.

In these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list at a later date.

The SoCal Mountains are one of the last places you might expect to see a castle that looks straight out of a fairy tale, yet that’s exactly what you’ll find when planning a stay in this unique Airbnb.

The Castle in the Forest is a true hidden gem nestled in the forest near serene Lake Arrowhead. It really looks like a medieval castle! And surrounded by towering trees and mountain scenery, it definitely looks like a scene from a storybook.

Staying at this 10,000 square foot chateau will make you feel like royalty. With several dozen rooms, including seven luxurious suites and several themed rooms, there’s plenty of space to spread out for large groups.

Inside the chateau, you’ll be wowed by its cathedral ceilings, twinkling chandeliers, fireplaces, floor-to-ceiling windows, and Gothic architectural features. Your next family reunion, offsite job, or festive event just got a whole lot fancier!

Although equipped with modern amenities, the castle does a great job of transporting you back in time. The Bavarian-style pub with a sunken bar is definitely a favorite among patrons. Don’t you just want to enjoy a cold pint here?

Other notable features of the chateau include a Great Hall (with a balcony), a custom kitchen, a formal dining room, and several living rooms. You won’t want to leave this majestic castle! However, the Lake Arrowhead Village mall is only a 5 minute drive away if the mood for shopping or dining strikes.

A night at the Chateau in the Forest will set you back $3,099 per night. For large group gatherings in a heavenly setting, it doesn’t get better than this. You will be treated like royalty during this unique stay!
