Getting Around:
Crestline is a charming mountain town best explored by car. The home is located in a quiet, forested neighborhood where walking is peaceful but not ideal for accessing most attractions, which are spread out across the area.
Driving is essential for visiting nearby spots like Lake Gregory (5 min), Lake Arrowhead Village (20 min), and Snow Valley Mountain Resort (30 min).
San Bernardino International Airport (SBD) is the closest airport, just 35–40 minutes away by car.
Ontario International Airport (ONT) is a major airport option, located about 1 hour and 10 minutes away, offering more flight availability.
Ubers and Lyfts are available in Crestline, but can be limited, especially during late hours or off-peak seasons. We recommend planning ahead or driving your own vehicle for the most flexibility.
No public transit or shuttles run regularly in this area.
Parking at the home is easy, and the roads are generally well-maintained, though chains may be required in winter during snow conditions.
This is a great area for scenic drives, day trips to nearby mountain towns, and unplugged getaways — just be sure to bring your sense of adventure and your car keys.
