Bearfoot Hideaway in Boulder Bay

Nestled among the trees with the lake and wildlife as your neighbors, this upgraded home welcomes you with charm and a cozy ambiance. The bright kitchen sets the tone as you enter, and on the ground floor, you'll find a comfortable living room with a wood-burning fireplace and a spacious master bedroom with a private bathroom.

Upstairs, two more generously sized bedrooms and a full bathroom provide ample space for guests. The home's prime location offers proximity to the lake and ski slopes, making it ideal for outdoor enthusiasts. It's also conveniently close to Boulder Bay Area and the vibrant Village, giving you access to all Big Bear's attractions.

Notably, our property has a flat driveway, a valuable asset in Big Bear, where many driveways are small and steep. This convenience makes parking stress-free, ensuring a pleasant stay in this mountain retreat.

For nature lovers, hiking trails and Boulder Bay are within walking distance, allowing you to immerse yourself in the area's natural beauty.

Getting around in Big Bear is easy with options like Uber, Lyft, and local transit, but be prepared for winter weather by carrying chains during snowy months, as weather conditions can be unpredictable. Close to the Boulder Bay Area and the Village, this home is truly a wonderful place to call your own during your stay.

Additional perks include:

Proximity to the lake and slopes
Walking distance to Boulder Bay and hiking trails
Convenient access to nearby attractions: 1.5 miles to Boulder Bay, 0.9 miles to Pine Knot Trail, 0.4 miles to Azteca Mexican Eatery, and 0.5 miles to Bear Valley Bikes
Just 1.4 miles to the vibrant Village and 3 miles to Snow Summit Ski Resort

Rest assured, we're here locally to assist you when needed, respecting your privacy to let you enjoy your getaway in peace.

[MANAGEMENT RULES]

1) Vacation rental properties undergo wear and tear due to heavy use. While we strive to provide a clean and comfortable environment, we may have limitations, and perfection isn't guaranteed. Homeowners schedule repairs like carpet cleaning, yard work, and cosmetic fixes during the off-season to minimize disruption to guests. Please report any safety concerns or issues immediately, and we appreciate feedback to address concerns reasonably. All properties are inspected before arrival, and any damages must be reported upon check-in to avoid responsibility for the repair costs.
