Perched above the sparkling waters of Boulder Bay, this iconic lakefront cottage offers a truly one-of-a-kind setting with unmatched panoramic views. Step outside to your private hot tub, dramatically positioned atop a 40-foot boulder and surrounded by natural rock formations, delivering sweeping 180° lake views—the ultimate spot to relax under the stars. A custom staircase carved into the stone leads you down to your private lakeside deck, complete with seating, an outdoor shower, and direct lake access, creating a seamless connection to the water below.
Inside, the cottage blends its rich 1938 history with thoughtfully curated modern upgrades. Warm finishes, bamboo wood flooring, and large picture windows invite in natural light and frame the lake from nearly every angle. The open yet cozy layout, vaulted ceilings in the master suite, and inviting living spaces create a refined mountain retreat that feels both luxurious and comfortable.
This is more than a place to stay—it’s a rare Big Bear experience. From soaking in the hot tub above the lake to enjoying quiet mornings on the deck or taking advantage of included seasonal perks like summer rentals and winter ski packages, Lakefront Cottage delivers an unforgettable escape where nature, history, and adventure come together effortlessly.
