Long over due Renovation! The village was run down for awhile, with a new owner, making huge improvements to make it attractive. Great restaurants are coming in and the concert area had been relocated.

The central area of the village. Lots of space to walk!

Lake Arrowhead Village is a quaint shopping district right near the main area of the lake. The village consists of various shops including cafés, retail stores, gifts & souvenirs, restaurants, and a market. In addition, there are weekly concerts held and performed by local musicians. There is plenty of parking and if you walk further in, you'll be able to get a beautiful view of the main lake and partake in a must-need photo opportunity. On our last day in Lake Arrowhead, my husband and I wanted to walk around and explore the village. The area is also pet-friendly, so we took the cat backpack with our cat inside. Just be mindful and pick up after your dog or cat if they have an accident.

The Lake Arrowhead Village gets five stars for their upgrades!!! Beautiful sitting areas near gas fire pits. More and more shops moving back in to the empty spaces!!! Love to see people walking and shopping again. Moving the band stand to the edge of the lake is perfect.

Exterior remodel looks good!

Nice little village. Like all retail areas they are struggling. They've invested in an exterior remodel: community fireplaces and so forth. Believe me in the winter you need the heat. Can be very cold and windy up here.

Lake Arrowhead Village sits at the rim of the lake and that in itself provides a great view and ambiance any time of the year. This past trip, I was fortunate to be staying close by that I could walk over to the Village from my Inn. The cool weather and sunshine made my stroll simply PERFECT. You have retail, you have supermarket, you have professional business, you have eateries. What more do you want? After you eat or do whatever you had in mind to do at the Village, talk a walk to the lakeside and visit with those DUCKS!!!!

很喜歡lake arrowhead 這邊的環境,他們有一個非常美麗又大的湖畔之外,你也可以租船在這邊遊湖,旁邊還有很多不同可愛的小商家可以逛,美麗風景的餐廳可以坐下來吃美食,吃飽飯,再買一包可以餵鴨子的小袋食物,難怪這裡是洛杉磯的人很喜歡來的渡假勝地

It's giving rural outlet with a lake view. There is an outlet mall in Georgia with almost the exact same shops it's crazy. Theres nothing wrong with the place, I just think they have a very random selection of stores lol

Lake Arrowhead Village holds a special place in my heart since I grew up in the area. It has always been a charming place to walk around, grab a bite to eat, and enjoy the lake views. Right now, it is under heavy construction, and while that makes it a little less enjoyable to visit, it looks like the upgrades will be worth the wait. I would probably stay away until the work is finished, but once everything is complete, I think it is going to look amazing. I am excited to see the final result and to enjoy the Village all over again with a fresh new feel.

Shops

This is one of the main areas to hang out in Lake Arrowhead. You can walk around the lake, eat, and shop. I can't see myself getting actual shopping done here but it was nice to window shop and look at all of the knick knacks. Some of the stores have closed down over the years so they sit vacant. There is a parking lot and parking garage. We came on a Friday around noon and it was packed. We managed to find a spot in the garage after circling around for a bit. The spaces are very small. I wouldn't recommend bringing a big truck or SUV. *Also, multiple stores sell duck food for $1 to feed the ducks in the lake.

Village

Sadly, this area has gone downhill. I used to love going to Lake Arrowhead and visiting the village with my family. However, it's a ghost town now. What used to be packed with people, is now empty. There used to be tons of stores and food options, but many have closed down. When you walk down the village, you will see where businesses used to be. They went out of business and closed. The best way I can describe the vibe now is "drought." The food quality in the village has declined as well. Overall, it's just not worth the time and money to come up the mountain anymore. The value just isn't there; prices are high, for mediocre food. The food selection and shopping are limited on the mountain. Service is hit or miss.

Foggy and beautiful
Jessica G.

We love it here so much, we have been coming here since we were much younger than now lol. But we drove up and had friends following us and met friends later. But we spent the day here, wow what a beautifully, cold, super foggy, and rainy day! I loved it, I love the rain lol. It was much colder than we thought but thankfully we had a lot of layers to keep us warm. We walked around took some pictures. They have food and shops. I love this area, it's so cute and even more beautiful when it's gorgeous out! But really didn't mind the gorgeous rain and fog. More fog than we have ever seen here before and driving up was fun lol. Our kids had a great time, our friends two girls have never been to the mountains and since they are moving soon we want to spend as much time with them as possible before they leave. Plus we went up for the day to support our friend who played in a band later in the evening. It was still busy and there was a wedding even going on. I had to sit down cause my body was hurting but we found a cute and perfect spot with chairs and a tent and a stage maybe for the wedding? They even do boat tours when the weather is nice it's beautiful we did it once with family so much history and gorgeous homes and the beautiful lake. We saw some ducks and fish swimming. We had such a wonderful day out today, I can't wait to come back soon. If you never been here before I highly recommend coming here it's so amazing, nature and the lake surrounding you and the beautiful cold breeze and nice walk with cute shops and food. How can you go wrong? Such a nice place for family and friends to come visit. Love it here forever was so nice to finally come up here it's been a few years. This is the perfect place to spend the day and explore and eat food and snacks. Have a beautiful day, be kind to everyone. :) Aloha

Beautiful! I loved the village. It was a bit busy this time I went because it was the day after Thanksgiving. But I love walking the village and seeing all the little shops. There are a few places to stop and eat at as well. They have a parking garage and outside parking available. I beautiful place to visit when you are in Lake Arrowhead.

Lake Arrowhead Village is the main thing to do here if you're not going to the lake for water activities (swimming, fishing, boating, etc). It's easily accessible from the state highway. There is plenty of parking. They opened up a structure that has four levels. They have so many shops, eateries, offices, etc. They offer access routes to the water even. At the top of the fourth floor where Stater Bros is located, you can get a nice overview of the lake on a clear day. On Saturday nights, they have live concerts with a stage and plenty of seating.

Ask the Community - Lake Arrowhead Village

Is it safe to swim in the water?

You cannot unless you are a member

Can you rent a small wood boat for pictures?

There are no boat rentals but you can go on a tour on the Lake Arrowhead Queen

To drive over there , I need chains? and what breakfast restaurant do you have

The waffle house is amazing.

Is it open on Labor Day?

Probably, it is a shopping mall.

Can we swim in the lake? it's a 2 hour drive and i want to go with my kids (15,14 and 10) is it worth the long drive?

The lake is a private lake so they do not allow the public to swim in it. It's a nice place to visit but I would NOT recommend it to have fun with the kids. It mostly for shopping and just walking around.

Is the summer concert series okay for children (2 years old)? I wondering if it would be too rowdy. We would probably get a table in the back if we went. (We would probably see the Zeppelin cover band or The Who cover and)

It's good for the whole family. The paid for tables may be too close / loud for a 2 year old. Best to bring your own chairs and sit away from the stage. Just mark your spot early. Enjoy !

Candace is nothing short of amazing. She helped me in early February and together we went through…read moremy entire closet. Most importantly, she helped me narrow in on my vision and clothing style, and how the two would intersect. She also educated me on the different brands and how to tell good quality clothes from mass-produced clothing where you're paying a high price just for the brand. 8 months later and I have been slowly curating my ideal closet based on that initial consultation, and her lessons always run through my head whenever I go shopping. I also really appreciate that she's always available on her Facebook group as well whenever I have a question for a continuing education!

She is very detailed and creative and I would recommend her to anyone I know who is looking to spruce up their wardrobe for a special occasion or even just to change their daily style. We started the day reviewing my old clothes. She showed me why some clothes weren't working for my body type and kept the ones that fit. From there, she made a list of clothes I needed for my lifestyle and where to go to find them within my budget. Usually shopping days are very stessful, but with Candace's guidance and new education she provided, I am rocking it! Thank you Candace - 10 stars if I could!

Sophie worked with me on a closet assessment and re-organization and we went shopping once. The…read moreexperience was great! I believe working with her will save me money and headaches when finding something to wear for work and events. First, Sophie showed me how to put things that I already have together, so I don't waste money buying new things when I could mix and match what I already own. Second, she gave me advice to figure out which pieces are flattering and which pieces are not. Getting all the junk out of my closet helped me to see that I have a lot of things I like. I think it can often feel like there's nothing to wear when you can't see the good pieces through the stuff you don't like to wear. When we were shopping, Sophie got a sense of my style right away, and she didn't impose a different style on me. She made recommendations about which pieces I would use more often--what was worth the money. Shopping with her saved me time, because she can quickly spot what's good and what's not in a big rack of clothes, and she knows which brands run small or big--which means fewer things to try on. Finally, Sophie has a really nice and professional demeanor. Thanks, Sophie!

She educates you on why things aren't working for you and why others do. We went shopping yesterday and I was not a fan of shopping in stores until yesterday. I cannot wait to go shopping with her again. I was able to purchase a lot of clothes and still remained under budget. She comes with a plan, and while going through my closet, learned what styles I was looking for. She is simple A-MAZING! Thank you, Sophie Mae. I'll be in touch.

Catherine is a genius!…read more Our relationship started thanks to a generous 40th birthday present from my mom. Catherine did a phone consultation and then came to my house to review my closet. She was understanding and non judgmental looking at all my outdated fashion, and helped me see outfit pairings I would never have thought of (navy and gold, who knew?!) and say farewell to things that were tired or ill fitting. That helped us make an agenda for our shopping trip which she carefully timed around big sales, mindful of helping me stay within the budget we'd identify. When I arrived she had a whole rack ready for me to start trying on, and we made swift work of finding a whole new look for me to use day to day. She got special treatment with the store clerks and alterations folks because of a good reputation and they treated me like a queen. Our relationship continues long beyond that first trip -- she checks in on my alterations and offers solid advice on accessories and purchases when I ask. I'm really glad we met and know I'll be recommending her to friends and going to Catherine for a long time.

5 hours, $525 paid and all I have to show for myself is one $200 blouse I'll probably return…read more I have very minimal clothes (less than 100 pieces--only 5 pairs of shoes!) and Catherine spent TWO HOURS going through my closet. She did make one good tip "you have too many sweaters and no blouses" but when she left I felt no better about my clothes or how to put them together than before she came. She didn't put ONE outfit together for me, or for my husband, who has maybe 50 items (3 pairs of shoes). I then went shopping with her for 3 hours. I had expected to buy blouses, since she said I needed those, but we spent an hour on jeans (already have 3 expensive pairs that fit well) and I had to keep nagging and redirecting her to blouses over and over. She even started showing me sweaters at one point -- even after saying I owned too many (8). And despite spending TWO HOURS on my 100 items, she clearly learned nothing about my tastes or preferences. She kept grabbing high collar, super buttoned up shirts (I'm young and free spirited), lots of high wasted "mom" pants. Most of the items were too short in the pants or sleeves (I'm 5'7"), and Catherine would insist that it didn't matter. But why would I pay $200-$400 for something that is too short? (Every item she selected for me was OVER $100.) And when I would put something on and ask her, "what would I wear this with?" she would tell me something that I did not already have or was even in the dressing room. She also kept insisting I needed to buy black black and more black. I don't like black. I live in LA. Most people don't wear black except at night... and how good of a stylist can you be in you just want to dress everyone in all black? Frustrated, I asked to spend the last 30 minutes focused on my husband (she'd made one suggestion for him--he needed "fancy designer sneakers with a rocker pattern" and a grey jacket to complete his wardrobe) and she started picking up all these grey bland booties. I finally waved her off. She was nice, and I think she did try, but I wish I could get a refund. I feel very VERY taken advantage of.

I was surprised to find out that even though we were both autumns, we had different colors that looked better on us. Overall, I really enjoyed the activity with my mother and highly recommend it! Karen was very knowledgeable and I left feeling like I really understood why certain colors and styles looked better on me. I have a greater understanding of undertones and how to identify them myself. The most impressive part was the lip color comparison. Karen explained why lip colors can be difficult to match despite knowing your season and helped us find our best shades. After the appointment, I went shopping with my mom and we used what we learned to analyze clothing and makeup! Karen even sends you detailed shopping lists and information regarding your ultimate season. Even now, my mom and I are talking about how much fun we had and discussing what makeup and styles we are incorporating into our everyday looks. Thank you very much for the experience! I definitely feel more prepared to find my personal style.

She starts the session doing a mini presentation, which breaks down color theory, the four seasons, and styling guides for each season. There are also informational handouts provided as well, which is so helpful if this is new information for you (like me)! The next part is the color analysis and Karen provides a phone mount, so you can record yourself during the process. This is especially supportive if you want to go back to review your season's colors. Then she goes into complementary hair colors, glasses frames, and eyebrow shape! The last part of the session goes over your season and makeup products she recommends. During this process, she sends an Amazon link, which organizes makeup products by season, and additional styling guides. As someone who is wanting to be intentional about what makeup and clothes I purchase, I highly recommend Karen's services ‍

I walked in and had a strong positive reaction as I'm currently obsessed with all things Yellowstone. I saw many Native American inspired blankets and wardrobe items, which made me feel a certain way. Or rather, a few ways. I was in love with the SUPER soft ponchos for $79 that are colorful, cozy & comfortable. A fair price for such a unique piece of outerwear. But I am struggling with whether the Native American styled items are crossing the line into cultural appropriation. I'm much more sensitive to how indigenous peoples feel about white people profiting off of their cultural artistry, and I am unsure if this would be resented if I were to wear these clothes. I am actually going to explore this with indigenous friends and acquaintances to get their take on this. I am hoping that it is not offensive, because I'm dying to wrap myself up in one of those gorgeous ponchos.
