Bracken Fern Manor

In 1929, Bugsy Segal, the notorious Gangster got the go-ahead to build a private membership gambling resort in the mountains two hours east of Los Angeles. Owned and managed by the Chicago Syndicate, Hollywood's rich and famous were the exclusive guests who barely acknowledged Prohibition and the Depression. Restored in 1991 as a certified Historic Point of Interst, the inn features state of the art accommodations while embracing the ambiance of the past. Furnished with European antiques, there are ten guest rooms, eight with private bath, and a family unit of two rooms with one shared bath. Guests enjoy the library, art gallery, game parlour, sauna, garden hot tub, and a plentiful home-cooked breakfast. Just two hours east of Los Angeles in the mountains above San Bernardino but a world away. Five minutes from the village and lake where shopping, dining, lake tours, and other local attractions can occupy your time.

    Tucked away on the third floor, our Bridal Suite is a romantic hide-away with a four-poster queen size canopy bed with Mombossa veiling,  a jacuzzi tub for two in the bath, and a skylight view.  All in white, it is pristine, elegant, and cozy. Ultimate privacy dormer suite.Our Family Suite is two adjoining rooms, Dahlia with a queen bed and Daisy with two twins,sleeping a total of four.  This is Dahila with a queen bed.  See Photo #3 for Daisy. Bath with shower shared by the two rooms.

The bathroom shares between the two rooms.On the third floor, the Heather Suite provides privacy, a traditional no fuss decor, and also has a foyer (behind the photographer) and a nice size bath with shower and oversized bubble-bath tub.  The view from the window at the end of the queen bed is the best--it overlooks the roof-tops of the whole area.
