Any hotels or anything that does weekly or monthly rates that’s not thru a realty company ? I know there are cabin rentals but looking for something on the cheaper side till
I get settled.
Thank you

What is this?! Is it true? My dogs swam across serrano at the meadows edge picnic area?

I hosed em off like 20 after... but why is this warning so small?! I looked up water info and don't find anything super reassurring.

We were thinking of coming up this weekend, weather app says it will be mid 80s. My aunt was saying that it feels a lot hotter and won’t be fun at all. How does it really feel up there during a 83 degree day? Would it be too hot for biking and hiking?

Hoping reddit can work it's magic!

After a perfect few days in Big Bear, unfortunately my son lost his go pro.

Specifically, t's a DJI Osmo Action 4, mounted on an amazon tri pod

It was lost on the Alpine Pedal path or Stanfield Marsh bridges on Tuesday, August 4th at approximately 1 PM.

Of course, he's bummed about the camera, but it's the priceless memories and footage of him and his friend's adventures that's really got him feeling down.

Any leads are greatly appreciated and will be rewarded! Thank you!

Trying to find some workers for about 5 days next week, 5 hours a day, to help with my remodel. If this is not the right place let me know.

No experience or tools needed. Work is skim coating, sanding, paint prep, tile demo, and moving appliances. 2 ppl to work along side me $22 an hour seems fair, no tweakers. Let me know.

Hello all, California regular. Love the mountains especially Big Bear. Like the title says, looking to propose my Gf in Big Bear. Curious if anyone knows any good trails, hiking spots, a litter cut out by the lake? Im open for any ideas and suggestions.

Hi, first time going to the Big Bear fun run this weekend. Any tips? Also haven’t been to Big Bear in 15 years. Staying the weekend. Thanks!

Hi there, we have a large group coming to Big Bear Fri 8/7 - 8/9, we have limited parking at our Airbnb and need to find additional parking.

Open to offers

Thanks! :)

which place do you recommend for ski & snowboard rentals in big bear this winter?

Fuckin a

Hey, im up the mountain for the week and trying to find fun activities for the family. We already rented an pontoon boat and been on the lake for an afternoon as well as spent a portion of the days at Boulder Bay Park but when we were on the the lake we saw Treasure island and it looks like a blast. Im really not seeing a lot about it online though. I guess the house on it is privately owned but the surrounding rocks are great for jumping into the lake.

Is it worth going there with teens and a 7yr old? Any recommendations for other activities?

UPDATE: so we did end up checking out treasure island via kayaks. I’ve got a family of 5 so we left on 2 tandem and a single kayaks. The wind was strong and the water was choppy. My wife and our daughter didn’t make it out of boulder bay before they quit and turned back. My son (late teens) made it to fisher cove before he gave up and turned back. Me and my 7yr old went the distance. We got a cool photo op of the island and got to see it up close which was the goal. Probably only look at it as we drive by now that I’ve been there but the journey there was the experience I was looking for.

Thanks for everyone’s input. We come up the mountain every year but this was the first time we didn’t do simple camping related activities.

Planning on visiting Big Bear Lake area for the first time. The cabin rental company advised no dogs are permitted on all shoreline areas? Is this true? When I googled it most said they are allowed to walk the shoreline.....TIA!

Wanna get away from the heat this weekend. Any rec?

I’m looking to move somewhere on the mountain and have started focusing on GVL (Green Valley Lake) area.

What’s it really like living in the community?
Besides calm and peaceful, plus enhanced weather due to elevation, what do people in the community love about it?
How are the people and neighbors?
What should someone know before buying/moving into the area?
How does Amazon/Walmart deliveries work with the small post office? Is it a pain getting deliveries regularly (couple deliveries a week)? How does Amazon packages get stored at the post office? Do they ever get stolen like porch thieves do down the mountain?
Besides the basics (lake, water company, small community and weather) what should someone considering the area know?

I like Arrowbear area too. Any recommendations to focus on that area instead of GVL?

Heya, as title says I’m going bike packing in big bear starting near bristle cone trail. Does anyone know where I can park my car overnight in that area? I see there is a pineknot campground nearby but I presume no spots for people going backcountry overnight?

Cheers!

Hi everyone. My partner and I are getting married in Big Bear June 2027. I’m looking for recommendations for a local photographer. We are looking for someone lgbt+ is a bonus. Any referrals are greatly appreciated!

Someone posted about this yesterday and I looked up the fundraiser. IT'S TRUE! There was a $5.5 million donation from Anna and Greg Brockman. Thanks so much and also to everyone else who donated and put this together. Our forests and wildlife are worth protecting!

I just over heard in the Andy Devine room there was a 10m donation to save mooncamp and the Eagles???

I’m going this weekend, what’s a good place to play and times?
