2643 Soutar, Running Springs, CA 92382

A saucy little number tucked into the Alps of our very own San Bernardino Mountains! This three-story, two-bedroom, two-bath cabin is a really neat find, saturated dusted with mountain magic. Rural, classic and rustic inside, it's the perfect treat for a cabin-driven sweet tooth.

Outside, charming shingle siding sets beautifully against a sprawling, woodsy lot decorated by manzanita, cedar, pine and oak. The deck quaintly perches among the trees, ready for morning coffee and consultation with the local robins, Steller's jays and chickadees.

Sunlight filters gently through the branches, while the mellow atmosphere of the neighborhood encourages a longer stay. Knotty pine walls, warm wood floors are ever so vocal with little creaks and quirks of their own Running Springs stories. Sleek varnished counters mingle with vintage details while admired from the clawfoot tub.

And a crackling fireplace makes a strong argument for a longer stay when the wind houls with snowfall during a crisp winter day. Come one or come all, how about you try one of each. The home functions as a whole or lends the lower half to guest for their own quarters.

A creative retreat, extended stays or simply a cabin that bends and changes along with your daydream. There's something wonderfully nostalgic here-less polished perfection and more romance, character and the feeling that a good story has already begun. Come with your toothbrush and a chapter of your own.
