“
the star spattered sky
is an ideal roof”
Some there are to whom the star-spattered sky is the
ideal roof, and the good green firs, four walls. Others
like the primitive intimacy of a semi-tent, a dining-room
and lodge building. While to others a little vine-covered
cottage nestled among the trees is just the ticket. Whatever
your taste, Lake Arrowhead offers you accommodation.

Cottage Grove
Bungalows…Dining Room and Lobby Another hospitable group is provided in Cottage Grove.
Here are bungalows containing accommodations for from two
to ten people. A cozy comfortable lobby brings a note of
hotel life into the grove, while a dining-room provides
tempting, wholesome food. The cottages are equipped with
kitchen (Rock Gas fuel), bath and large comfortable front
rooms. Camp Fleming
Hotel comfort…Camp Freedom To those who would combine the comfort and convenience
of a local lounge and dining-room with the more open, camp-like
atmosphere of cabins or bungalettes, Camp Fleming is just
the place.
|
Surrounded
by the ever present pines, close by the great blue
lake, Camp Fleming is the center of much happy activity.
Every convenience is provided for your comfort. The
cabins and housekeeping quarters are close by the lounge
and dining-room, yet far enough removed to assure seclusion
and privacy.
There are cottages here, comfortable quarters for
from one to six persons, with housekeeping or non-housekeeping
facilities. All conveniences are included at this camp;
light, fuel for cooking, water, and sanitary plumbing.
To those seeking the less formal life, Camp Fleming
is just the place.

Public Camp Grounds
Campfires…Pines…A Tent Camp fires twinkling in the dusk, the
hunger-teasing aroma of coffee and sizzling steak –the soft song of campers
in the distance –and hundreds of tents hidden in
the pines and firs –there’s nothing quite like
it –“camping out.”
For those who like the fun of camping, there is a beautifully
maintained public auto camp. Conveniences include hot and
cold showers, running water and modern lavatories. The
charge is $1 per day per car irrespective of the number
