Priced to Sell! Classic 4-Bedroom 3-Full Bathroom Mountain Cabin in Big Bear City - Proven Airbnb & Short Sale Opportunity! Welcome to 131 E Aeroplane Blvd in Big Bear City — a rare 4-bedroom 1936 mountain cabin/chalet with genuine character and strong income potential. This 1,520 sq ft home offers a functional layout with 3 bathrooms on a usable 5,227 sq ft lot, making it well-suited for families, groups, or as a turnkey vacation rental. Currently operating as the successful Airbnb, the property already has established short-term rental history and appeal to both lifestyle buyers and investors. Four bedrooms is an uncommon and desirable configuration in this market, making it stand out for larger groups and higher occupancy.
