" HOME RUN" is a large, kid and pet-friendly ski chalet 1/4 mile from the downhill's Home Run and a five minute walk to the lake; truly, a pristine ski-in and ski-out environment. It stays pristine because vehicles cannot reach the homes above the village as we are snowed in for most of the winter.
Therefore, alternative transportation such as a snowmobile (rentals @ BV Snomobile 753-2323) can be provided. You can walk, snowshoe and ski everywhere-we're just a mile from the lodge. Don't worry, this only adds to the adventure and kids love it.
This newly updated home is perfect for two families. The upstairs bedroom has a new queen bed and the loft also has a new fold-out couch. This floor is situated so that it enjoys spectacular morning color. The first floor bedroom has a new king bed and attached tile bath with radiant heat. The dining table seats ten. There is no television at HOME RUN, but there is a flatscreen home theater, a piano, a fireplace, a nice view and more stars than you've ever seen.
Many of our guests prefer the warmer seasons-colorful spring wildflowers on our greenbelt's creek, the golden aspens of autumn and the beauty of a perfect BV summer with our annual Music Festival. After a full day of activities please enjoy the private year-around hot tub on the 1300 square feet of decking for a stunning alpen-glow experience.
Those who love Bear Valley for its solitude also love the ease of its travel. There are no mountain passes to traverse, just straight up through the foothill's wine country to the top near Ebbetts Pass. The wide US SCENIC BYWAY to the mountain is always open.
*** Please open the attached BYWAY link if you have further interest in this extraordinary wilderness area***.
This is a tight, cozy ski house on a ridge above Bear Valley village and as Lloyd Bridges said in a TV piece"...Bear Valley is the hidden treasure of the Sierra".

Your place is great. It was exactly as described. We made it up Friday in a whiteout. Mark was right there. The snowmobile was great. We had a great time. Thanks.

We had a great time in your cabin, lots of snow and nice weather. The only thing that wasn't working were the jets in the Jacuzzi, but yhey were promptly fixed.

Just wanted to thank you for a wonderful time. We thoroughly enjoyed your beautiful home and all that it had to offer. We parked the car and did not drive it all week, we skied down the road to the shuttle then skied home run back to the cabin. The kids had a blast, we built a totally awesome snow cave on the front deck with two entrances. I will attach a couple pictures. Hope we can do it again. I am sold on Bear Valley.
