Modern Lakefront Dream Home, steps to The Village. Spa, Pool Table, Wifi

This gorgeous lakefront home is the perfect vacation getaway for all ages. The location is unbeatable since it allows you to relax lakeside with a stunning view of the water and mountains, and its proximity to the Village allows you to walk to restaurants, nightlife, and shopping. The house itself features a beautiful open concept living space that can accommodate your entire group for meals and entertainment. With 6 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and an additional game room with shuffleboard, bumper pool, house-wide premium wifi and a 70" 4K TV with live sports and TV from YoutubeTV and Sunday Ticket, there is something for everyone here- young and old! All bathrooms are recently upgraded, and all bedrooms have new carpeting and have been modernized.

The home was recently renovated to include a gorgeous 14-foot vaulted tongue and groove ceiling. The kitchen is simply to die for. It features all stainless steel appliances including a refrigerator with a quiet dishwasher, microwave, and five-burner stove. No detail was overlooked. You will have all the kitchenware and space needed to prepare your favorite home cooked meals. The massive island with quartz counter tops and seating for 5 provides plenty of space to cook and eat. Our indoor dining table seats 16+ people.

The living room boasts a lovely slate corner gas fireplace - perfect for warming up during those cool fall and winter evenings. For those staying in the summer months, you will be happy to know that our home features central air conditioning -- a rare but amazing feature to find in Big Bear! We have a 60” flat screen TV, Xbox Series X and YoutubeTV (with NFL Sunday Ticket) for your digital entertainment needs. The WiFi was just updated to an eero mesh system to ensure full and fast coverage throughout the entire home! The large glass sliding door provides views right out to the lake, mountains, deck, and outdoor entertaining space. If that isn’t enough, our Olhausen pool table provides yet another option for entertainment for the pool sharks in your group.

The back yard features an open entertaining space with beautiful lake and mountain views. A large outdoor kitchen featuring a Lynx Gas/infrared grill with side burner and sink make this the most beautiful and functional place to cook in Big Bear Lake. There is plenty of outdoor seating available, as well as a large gas fire pit for warming up or roasting marshmallows! Also, you can watch the sun set from our oversized hot tub. This house really has it all.

We have 3 bedrooms off of the great room in the main house, and 3 more bedrooms in the middle of the house. That brings a total of 8 beds in the 6 bedrooms, as well as the large sofas in the common areas in case you need to escape someone's snoring!

The master bedroom (Bedroom #1) has a lake view, and is decorated with a serene color palette. It features a king size bed, 55" TV, soft new carpet, closet and private bathroom with plenty of counter space and a spacious stand up shower with a bench.

Bedroom #2 boasts two queen size beds and a 55" TV and sleeps four easily.

Bedroom #3 has a king size bed with a 55" TV and large closet.

Our second bathroom (in between bedrooms #2 and #3) is modern and new. There is a combination shower and tub for soaking, and removable shower head for washing kids and pets. There is plenty of built in storage and counter space for guests.

Bedroom #4 is another master suite in the middle of the house. It features a king size bed, high sloped ceiling, 55" TV, walk in closet, and private bathroom. The bathroom has dual sinks, a large stand up shower, and plenty of ample counter space. The room also has a desk and chair for getting some work done, or just relaxing on a computer.

Bedroom #5 has a queen bed, 55" TV, and a high sloped ceiling. There is also a small desk and chair for doing some work.

Bedroom #6 has a bunk bed that takes advantage of the high sloped ceiling. The bed is a Full over Queen, with ample spacing in between. It also features a 55" TV. This room also has a desk and chair. This room is great for kids or teens who want their own space.

The rec room above the garage provides another retreat that is away from the bedrooms and rest of the house. This area is perfect for hanging out after others have gone to bed. This room is a true entertainer's paradise! It has a 16' shuffleboard table and a combination bumper pool/ poker/ dining/ board game table. There is a 70" 4K TV with YoutubeTV, and Xbox Series X. We also have a secondary TV on the side wall so you can watch two games (or anything else) at once! This room also has a wet bar with a compact fridge, dishwasher, drawer-style microwave, and sink for convenient snacking. The 12' vaulted tongue and groove ceiling makes the space feel open and warm.

The laundry room is great for longer stays. Make sure your swimsuits or snow gear stay fresh through your entire stay. For shorter visits, this room is still a great place near the front door with lots of space to hang your coats and store your gear. This room also houses a sink for cleaning up dirty gear, as well as a dedicated ice machine.

The garage houses our new game room with foosball, ping pong, hook/ring toss, and golf shuffleboard. We have a built-in Tesla wall charger, as well as separate NEMA 14-50 plug for charging other Electric Vehicles. No expense was spared to bring the house into the future!

The driveway fits a total of 6 cars, so with the 2 spots in the garage the total parking capacity is 8 cars.

This house is a very clean and family friendly home and has really been modernized. All bathrooms are new, and all the bedrooms are new or have been updated with new carpeting, modern switches and furniture. The location really cannot be beat. This home is a true, flat, lakefront property (nothing in between the house and lake except the yard). It is considered in The Village, which means you can walk everywhere. No worries about drinking and driving. With so many shops, restaurants, and entertainment venues (such as The Bowling Barn, Movie Theater, and Arcade) within walking distance, this home really is perfect for your group of all ages.

Please be aware, we have security cameras on the outside of the house in case there are incidences, but none on the inside to respect your privacy. We do not actively monitor these cameras, and only look at the footage when issues arise. Thanks for looking, and let us know if you have any questions!

Another Amazing Stay
This is our 2nd time staying at this fabulous home! The property, views, and location are amazing. This house has it all. We enjoyed playing shuffleboard, ping pong, poker, and pool. Using our paddleboards was a breeze with the lake only a few steps away. Also walking distance to the Village. The host is top notch in responding quickly. We can’t wait to stay at this home again!

As we entered we saw one of the most beautiful views of Big Bear Lake! The home was spacious with something for everyone. The backyard area had a place for everyone to enjoy the lake view. The house was efficiently supplied with everything needed to play games, barbecue, cook, and dine all together. We loved it!

Perfect Summer Vacay
This amazing home, steps from the lake, was the perfect spot for our large family! We are a large extended family of 14 and this house accommodated everyone. We were never on top of each other because there is something to do and space for everyone. Our kids are teenagers and there was no shortage of activities that kept them off of their phones! When they weren't wakesurfuing in the lake or sitting in the jacuzzi, they played hours of pool, ping pong, and shuffleboard. The outdoor fire pit was another favorite spot. The dining table fit everyone...even though the teens opted for outdoor seating every night. No one wanted the week to end and we are looking forward to coming back!

If you’re thinking about booking this property, do it! You won’t regret it. It checked all the boxes for us. The location is amazing, right on the beautiful lake and walking distance to Pine Knot and a short drive to the slopes. This home has it all. It has plenty of space and would be great for traveling with kids or for an adult trip. The beds are comfortable, the water pressure is great. It was immaculately clean and the owners are quick to respond to any questions or concerns. There are a lot of activities in the house which was perfect for a fun game night in. The back yard is incredible with a fire pit and the hot tub overlooking the lake. We are so happy we got to stay here. Even better in person than how it looks in the pictures! Worth every penny!

Awesome property for Families/groups going to Big Bear.
We loved everything about our recent stay. Donny and Evelyn Chen were super responsive and welcoming. The house was right on the lake and just a few minute walk to the village with all its shops and restaurants. The house itself was beautiful - and beautifully decorated. There were nine of us and plenty of bedrooms to spread out in. TV's were everywhere. The water pressure in the shower was great. We would definitely want to stay here should we return to Big Bear. .

Great House and Great Ammenities
The house was clean and welcoming. I didn't have any major issues while there. My only gripe was the driveway. Driving onto the driveway, 5/8 of our cars (which were sedans) bottomed out going into the driveway. Hopefully this can be fixed.

Can't say enough good things about this place. Plus, location, location, location!
My daughter booked our stay for Jan. 3-5, 2018, for my 60th birthday. There were 18 family members, 13 adults and 5 children. I honestly can't remember the last time I had so much fun on a get-a-way. This place had it all and we used it all; the pool table, the poker table, the shuffle board table, the ping pong table, the barbecue, and the fire pit. Well,I guess we didn't use all of it, it was a little too chilly for the hot tub. The only place we drove to was the Snow Play area so the kids and some of us adults could slide down the hills. The owners keep this place very clean and well stocked and the location was right on the lake. You can walk to the lake right out of the backyard and town was so close we walked there too. The kitchen is well stocked with pots, pans and utensils. This place even has a washer and dryer and a separate ice making machine. I would loooove to go back with my family again during the summer. Don't pass this one up!

Beautiful home with an incredible location!
I have vacationed at big bear many, many times in the past but this was the first time I had stayed in such amazing accommodations! The home was absolutely beautiful and gave you a modern cabin vibe while being in The Village. You are literally a short walking distance from the lake, restaurants, grocery stores and miscellaneous shops for all your needs which makes it very convenient! The home features everything you need from A-Z and no expense was spared by the home owners to make sure you have a comfortable stay. The wrote it can sleep up to 10 but I would say up to 20 because it was so spacious and had a lot of rooms with plenty of beds and bathrooms. I absolutely loved it and will definitely check back with them first when I return to big bear!

It is as spacious, clean, and beautiful as it looks.
My large family stayed here and we had an amazing time. We have quite a few young and noisy kids, but the great room was huge and open and it leads out into a beautiful, lakefront backyard that allowed them to run inside and out. The rooms were huge, the beds were comfortable, and there were plenty of places to separate yourself if you needed some quiet time away from the group. Grown ups were able to stay up late without disrupting sleeping kids and we connected to the Sonos and were able to listen to our favorite stations and music. We are so thankful we found such a great place to build some quality, family memories. The owners Donny and Evelyn answered any questions we had leading up to the trip, and the guest book clearly explained everything we needed to know. Thank you so much, Donny and Evelyn.

Our family of 20 had a great time at this lake front home, perfectly situated in walking distance to town and short walk to lake rentals for our daily activities. The home was ideal, with games, toys, entertainment and family gathering whch was our goal, no need to head out for 20 person resturant reservation as the kitchen and BBQ are set-up, stocked with all our needs. We will definitely be back for our summer 2019 family gathering - thanks Donny for all your effort in assuring our time spent went well! The Crane Family - Newport Beach, California

The house is amazing, very clean with all amenities we could have wanted, including high chairs, pack and play, kitchen adds. The place was clean, with easy to understand instructions. We loved the pool table, and the upstairs rec room. Donny and Evelyn were very prompt responding to email and text regarding questions as to where to find things. Access to the house is very easy for someone with walking disability, and parking was not a problem since we had multiple cars. We could not recommend the house more, we will be certain to come back to this house again if we visit Big Bear!

EVEN MORE AMAZING THAN I THOUGHT
I saw pictures of this house online and my friends and I were so excited about our annual BIG BEAR TRIP, but when we walked through the doors of this amazing home, we were all truly blown away. In all my years of organizing these trips, I've never heard my friends react the way they did. The house was ever better than the pictures. Truly. It was just immaculate and warm and so comfortable. The backyard was just incredible. Right on the freaking lake! And talk about location. We were right next to town. Not like one 20 minutes or 10 minutes, but like 1 minute. We had a pizza place and coffee place and little mart right around the corner to the house and to top it off... The Bowling alley was right next to all of it. I love bowling. #heaven - I applaud the owners for making my stay so amazing. I never write these freaking reviews, but felt like I needed to. It was that good. Thanks guys, Rosenbaum
