LOCATION! LOCATION! SO CONVENIENT, WALK TO THE VILLAGE, LAKE & TRAILS!
OUR HOME IS A VILLAGE DELIGHT ! Dazzling "Christmas Tree Corner" is just steps from our Home. Winter turns The Village into a Wonderland of Dazzling Lights. Stroll to the Village all dressed in it's festive beauty, right at the end of our block! Our home is only four houses from The Village, which is less than a 100-yard walk and a short easy walk, on sidewalks, to the Lake, Rotary Park and Pine Knot Marina! The National Forest is also just up the street from our home, for easy access to great Hiking and Biking trails. Our home is nestled in a quiet neighborhood, yet steps to The Village! An added bonus during the snow season, is that our home is an easy drive just off the main Village road. No icy hills to navigate, and our street is plowed during snow season.

WHAT YOU'LL LOVE:
The entire interior of the cabin is upgraded and completely remodeled, including the carpet and flooring! Cozy up to the gas log fireplace when the chilly weather pays a visit. A Weber Propane BBQ is on the large back deck. Large Pine Trees offer a great space for Hammock napping. The spacious covered grand Front Porch has a Table with 4 chairs, and 2 rocking chairs, to extend the living space into the great outdoors. The front porch is a great place for dining, fun board game and card playing, visiting, or just relaxing with a good book. This house is as clean as it gets.

Perfect!

The property was clean and well stocked. Our host Laura was available for any questions and gave us the most helpful tips which we really appreciated. We had no need to drive as the property was walking distance from The Village. This is definitely a place we would book again. We loved it!

Great location

Can't beat the location. A 2 minute walk to the heart of the village. Just off the corner of Village and Pine Knot. Amenities were a bit lacking, and televisions were small, but other than that, great place to stay. Very clean.

Quick after New Year's Getaway

The property is what you expect from listing plus so much more. The location was prime, close to The Village as stated. The house was fully stocked with anything you might need. From extra blankets to batteries to spices you may have forgot to games and Blu- rays. Check-in was easy, Laura and Ken were great hosts who were very responsive when a minor issue came up with TV. They were very accomidating hosts and you can tell they want their guests to enjoy themselves. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Just a wonderful wonderful stay at the “Bacon house”. Celebrated my wife’s BD and we couldn’t have chosen a better place. Walking distance to shops and restaurants and the paddlewheel boat was such a plus. We would definitely stay again if Laura would have us! Can’t say enough positive things, future vacationers will NOT be disappointed!!

About the host

Hosted by Ken and Laura

Host profile image
We are brother and sister, Ken and Laura. We along with our spouses, Lesie and Phil, are the proud owners of this little "Treasure in the Pines" that had previously been in our family for generations. Here’s the story…

Our grandparents purchased this historical Big Bear home in the early 1940's. They raised our Mother and Uncle in this quaint home. Growing up, we made fond memories here when visiting our Grandparents home.

After being in our family for over 70 years this sweet little abode was sold in 2015 to a fine family who appreciated the diamond in the rough that this sweet home was, and they kindly remodeled it to the charming home that it had been so many years ago. Life's path took an adventurous turn for that family and we are so grateful that they sold the home to us.

We are so very thankful, and beyond thrilled, to have the blessing of our Grandparent's historical legacy back in the fold of our family! We're delighted to share our little piece of heaven with our guests.

Why they chose this property

Location, Location, Location!
When traveling, we always enjoy staying in homes that offer a chance to experience the "culture" of the town and we love living like the locals. This little gem of a home offers just that chance. All the comforts of home to enjoy, nestled in a quiet neighborhood, with the great convenience of walking a few steps to the charming Village to enjoy entertainment, shopping, restaurants, the movie theater and great activities.

A beautiful short stroll from home brings you to the shore of the Lake, Rotary Park and the Pine Knot Marina. The National Forest is also just up the street from our home for easy access to great Hiking Trails.

Winter turns the Village into a Winter Wonderland of lights. Watch the Christmas Tree lighting ceremony and Festivities on “Christmas Tree Corner”, right at the end of our block! The Ski Slopes are only 2 miles away for Snow Skiing & Snow Boarding in the Winter, and for Mountain Biking in the remaining seasons of the year. During the Winter season the Mountain Transit provides shuttle service to & from the Ski area, with transfers conveniently located a block from our home.

Listening to the rustling of the pines, enjoying the clean mountain air, and eavesdropping on the singing birds from the grand front porch are delightful pleasures.

There's no better way to soak up the "culture" of a town then to walk the heart of it, and this home definitely shares its heart with the quaint Village of Big Bear Lake. We love that about our little "treasure in the pines" and we're sure you will too.

What makes this property unique

Of course the great Location, just a short walk to everything The Village has to offer, as well as the Lake and the National Forest for hiking, all in walking distance from our home. Our house is an easy drive off the main Village road, no icy hills to navigate. Our street is plowed during snow season. Flat driveway for off street parking.
