109 Mill Creek Rd, Big Bear Lake, CA 92315

Charming and rustic 1920’s Forest Service cabin that is the perfect escape for serenity, mental health, and mountain fun. One of the last chances to own a genuine old-fashioned vacation cabin in the woods, away from generic condo farms, busy roads, or noisy neighbors. This vintage cabin has all the key comforts of home plus unobstructed views of mature trees, forest, and granite rock formations, and a wraparound deck with sightlines of Big Bear Lake through the trees. One of only a few other cabins up the hill above the lake that is surrounded by nature, but still walkable to the Village and marina (~ 1 mile). Hiking trails begin right outside the cabin door. An incredible get-away. Open and cozy floor plan with original rock fireplace that contains a wood-burning insert and fan to keep the cabin warm on chilly fall nights. Kitchen is compact but fully functional, with an electric water heater, propane stove and oven, and lots of windows to enjoy the scenery. Two bedrooms, with one on the main floor that has a small closet and a second bedroom/loft. Dine in the eat-in kitchen or eat on the deck overlooking the forest. Bathroom is bright with a toilet and claw-foot tub with shower. Set up is like the other forest service cabins. Home is on the electric grid, with a water tank to supply fresh water, sewage holding tank, and propane fuel. Security system installed. Land lease means that the Forest Service owns the land on which the cabin sits (Federal Government), but the area around the cabin makes it feel equivalent to having a three-or four-acre property in the woods. The best buy in Big Bear. A great way to avoid the heat of the summer as Big Bear Lake averages only 85 degrees in July and August with clean air and friendly folks.
