For the kiddos, kick back and watch them play at our tetherball court while nature provides the perfect backdrop for lasting memories.

The cabin is located right around the corner from the trailhead for Pebble Plains Ecological Reserve. Hiking trails are all over Big Bear, but even walking around the neighborhood is a hike unto itself. There is one entrance across the street from our front door and to the left approximately 300 feet down Villa Grove. You will see a sign marking an entrance to the Reserve.

Free Big Bear Trolley: Mountain Transit's Free Big Bear Trolley service offers convenient and reliable transportation for both locals and visitors to help eliminate traffic congestion and car pollution in the City and greater Valley.

Traffic and illegal parking are a significant issue for Big Bear during the busy winter and summer seasons. We encourage everyone to leave their vehicles at their homes or rentals and hop on the Free Big Bear Trolley to navigate the town.
