About This Home

As of September 2025

Set against a backdrop of towering pines and mountain air in scenic upper Moonridge, complete with slope and peek-a-boo lake views, this log-style retreat offers a lifestyle rooted in nature with a unique tree-house setting. With four bedrooms and three baths, this home combines rustic charm with the ease of modern living, all wrapped in an open floor plan that welcomes connection and calm. Sunlight streams through the large windows, highlighting natural wood finishes and drawing the outdoors in. Whether you’re gathering by the fire, reading in the sunroom, or stepping out onto the expansive deck to take in the mountain views, each space invites a slower, more intentional rhythm, and creates the perfect atmosphere for entertaining family or friends. The detached garage adds flexibility for mountain gear, water toys, workshop space, or storage, making it easy to embrace year-round adventure. This home also features central air conditioning, a rarity in Big Bear, as well as a separate split unit upstairs for extra cooling or heating when it's needed. Peaceful, practical, and full of quiet character, this home is a place to settle in, breathe deep, and live close to what matters most. Situated near Bear Mountain Ski Resort and a short drive to the lake for maximum adventure potential, this home is an excellent location to make meaningful memories with family and friends whether it's summer or winter!
