Private Hot Tub + Game Room + Fireplace | Mins to Slopes + Lake | Nut House

Tucked beneath a canopy of towering pines, The Nut House is a warm and welcoming Big Bear cabin built for laid-back mountain living and the kind of moments you'll be retelling for years. Classic wood interiors, an open-concept layout, and the inviting glow of a stone fireplace deliver that cozy cabin feeling the second you walk through the door.

The main living space is made for gathering — whether you're curled up by the fire after a day on the slopes or settling in for a movienight. Just steps away, the fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to pull together home-cooked meals, with bar seating that keeps the conversation flowing.

When it's time for a little friendly competition, head to the game room — an entertainment hub featuring arcade games, foosball, a TV lounge area, and a handy auxiliary kitchenette for snacks and drinks. It's the ideal hangout for kids and adults alike.

Three comfortable bedrooms sleep up to 7 guests. The primary suite features a queen bed and a private ensuite with a walk-in shower. A second queen bedroom and a third room with a twin-over-double bunk offer flexible sleeping arrangements for families or groups.

Step outside and breathe in the crisp mountain air as you sink into the private hot tub, surrounded by towering pines. The peaceful setting makes it easy to unwind, while still being just minutes from Big Bear's best. You're a short drive from Big Bear Lake for kayaking, fishing, and lakeside picnics, and close to Snow Summit and Bear Mountain for year-round adventure — from skiing and snowboarding in winter to hiking and mountain biking in warmer months. The Village is also nearby, with charming shops, restaurants, and local entertainment.

Additional conveniences like a washer and dryer make extended stays a breeze.

Whether you're chasing fresh powder, sunny lake days, or simply a cozy retreat in the woods, The Nut House is your perfect Big Bear escape.
