San Antonio, has a maximum height of 10,066 feet (3,068 meters) and is home to Mt. Baldy Ski, where you can enjoy 26 runs. If you’re visiting in the summer, you can explore the many wildlife around the area, including elks and deer in Mt. Baldy Wilderness Preserve, and go on a California hiking adventure.

2. Cozy retreat with a hot tub and fireplace (from USD 272)

The Moonlight Retreat was originally built in 1932, but it has been recently restored and redecorated, and it’s now being used as a cabin rental for adventurers who want to visit Mt. Baldy.
