Discover the magic of the mountains at KnottyBear Haus, a unique modern rustic retreat nestled in the heart of Big Bear Lake, California. This reimagined cabin blends the warmth of charming wood-paneled walls with the convenience of contemporary living, offering an idyllic getaway for couples seeking romance, families on a weekend adventure, or world travelers looking for tranquility.
The home is designed for comfort and creativity, featuring 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom with a total capacity for 4 guests. The primary loft bedroom offers a Queen log bed and is equipped with A/C for a restful night. Downstairs, guests will find a playful twist: a secret Marvel x DC Superhero "Chill Cave" hidden behind a faux bookcase. This whimsical space serves as the second bedroom, featuring a twin day bed and a pull-out twin bed, alongside a big screen TV and a retro Nintendo console with over 600 games.
Outside, the property boasts a private fully-fenced yard where you can unwind in the hammock during summer, create memories around the firepit table, or grill on the propane BBQ. The back deck is perfect for sipping cocoa on the daybed under a starry sky while catching a glimpse of the famed Gold Mountain through the whispering pines.
Inside, the living and dining area features a wood fireplace, a turntable with a vintage receiver, and a Smart TV. The kitchen is fully equipped with stainless-steel appliances, a cocktail bar set, and Starbucks French Roast beans with a grinder. The bathroom is a highlight, offering a newly refinished shower with an extra-large overhead rain showerhead and a heated toilet seat.
Located in a prime spot for adventure, you are just 3 minutes from Big Bear Snow Play Tubing Park and roughly 8 to 10 minutes from Snow Summit. The Village and the lake are both 4.5 miles away, and the cabin is within walking distance of Thelma's diner and other local shops. Many hiking trails are just minutes from your door.
