Step outside and breathe it all in. Two acres of flat, forested land surrounds you — pine trees, birdsong, and mountain stillness.



Back Deck: Your outdoor living area. Fire up the propane grill, soak in the new 6-person spa under the open sky, and dine al fresco at the 6 chair outdoor table. The propane tank is replaced weekly. If the tank needs to be replaced during your stay you can use the extra tank in garage or do a tank swap nearby.



Front Deck: A welcoming space with wicker seating, ideal for your morning coffee while the pines sway gently around you.



Front Yard: Beautiful large green lawn perfect for leisure or games.



Back Yard: Is flat pine tree filled acreage in it’s natural state.



Spa: Maintained after every reservation. The spa is your after-adventure reward. Spa hours are 7am–10pm per city guidelines. Please keep in mind that as a rental the chemicals may be higher than a personal spa. With longer stays we will schedule spa maintenance once a week. We will provide 16 spa towels, not for lake use.



🥾 Walk directly to trails from the property — no car needed to explore the natural beauty around you.

Please note: This is a true mountain property. Tree sap, pine needles, and twigs are part of the charm and beauty of living among the forest. The backyard is mountain-scaped, embracing nature as it is. Outdoor wood fires are not permitted due to high-risk.

❄️ Winter Stays

Big Bear is magical in winter. A snowplow is on call after storms of 4+ inches, and a shovel and salt are provided at the home. 4WD, AWD, or chains are required Oct–Apr. We highly recommend trip insurance if weather concerns you.



Spa- Enjoy a soak in the 6 person spa just off the back deck. Maintained after each guest reservation. Please keep in mind as a rental the chemicals will be higher than a personal home spa. Longer stays, we will schedule the spa maintenance once a week. Spa hours are set for 7am-10pm only. This is a city rule for rentals. We provide 16 spa towels, not for lake use.



Outdoor wood fires are not permitted due to high-risk for fires.



Heating- Central heating & gas fireplaces.



Air conditioning- Please note that most homes in Big Bear do NOT have air conditioning. This area does have many tall trees, it is insulated well, along with portable fans. It helps keep the home cool, but not cold. Please open windows at night to let the cool night air cool the home.



There are three areas on property that you will not have access to, the barn on property, a set of cabinets in the dining room, and some cabinets in the laundry room. Otherwise, the entire property is yours during your reservation.
