Five Bears Den. Log Cabin, Hot Tub, Arcade & EV

Summary:
Welcome to Five Bears Den, a stunning 3,415 sq ft renovated log cabin spanning three levels with two bedrooms on each floor. With an outdoor jacuzzi nestled among natural boulders, a downstairs arcade room, two wet bars, a 180-degree viewing deck, and an EV charger — this is Big Bear mountain living at its most memorable.

The Space:
Inside, majestic vaulted ceilings, rich knotty pine, and hardwood floors set the tone of a grand mountain lodge from the moment you step in. Each floor has been thoughtfully laid out with two bedrooms, making it easy for different families or groups to claim their own level. Two fully equipped wet bars — one upstairs, one in the downstairs arcade room — keep the fun going indoors, while the expansive 180-degree outdoor viewing deck delivers sweeping mountain scenery. Outside, the jacuzzi nestled among natural boulders is the crown jewel of the property and the perfect place to end any day in the mountains.

The location adds even more to the experience — just a short walk from the Big Bear Convention Center (home to the world-famous Oktoberfest), Big Bear Snow Play’s tubing runs, ropes course, and go-cart speedway, and both main grocery stores.

While air conditioning is absent, nature compensates with its own cooling system - the fresh mountain air.
