About This Home

As of July 2025

A classic Big Bear Lake cabin nestled on a spacious lot, offering a unique blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. The interior features stunning knotty pine tongue and groove ceilings throughout and exposed beams in the master suite and living room, creating a warm and inviting ambiance. While the existing one-car garage could benefit from some updates, its presence adds to the property's character. A Tuff Shed provides additional storage, and the ample lot offers generous space for boat, RV parking. Walk to the lake through the popular mountain community of Gilner Point. The flat backyard presents a blank canvas for your vision – imagine lush landscaping and a potential ADU. Imagine enjoying cozy evenings by the fire and pine tree views with easy access to all that Big Bear Lake has to offer. Very close proximity to Halloways Marina where you can park your boat and enjoy the lake.
