The area up around Blue Jay and Lake Arrowhead is pretty nice, though it may be pricier than you're wanting. (Or not, I have no idea how Covid has affected the rental market up there.) Though I will warn you that in a bunch of spots you don't get mail delivery to your door, you need to have a P.O. Box.
Definitely will supply trees and snow. Visiting up there, I didn't interact with the neighbors much but got the feeling it was pretty mixed and mostly people kept to themselves. About a 1.5 - 2.5 hour drive from L.A. in my experience, depending on which part of L.A. you wanted to reach. Several good Mexican places, a decent Italian place, and a good burger spot, at least when last I was up there (which, it's been a couple of years and who knows with Covid.)
Memory says internet was pretty reliable once they switched to cable. Cell service could be spotty, though. So check for where you are.
