Twin Pines Family Lakeside Cabin- Village Location

Twin Pines | Lake Access + Walk to Village

Bring the family together at Twin Pines Cabin, a spacious two-bedroom retreat at historic Shore Acres Lodge on Big Bear Lake. Accommodating up to eight guests with two private full bathrooms, flexible sleeping arrangements, and room for up to two pets, this inviting cabin makes a comfortable home base for families and groups. Enjoy shared direct lake access, summertime pool access, outdoor recreation, and the convenience of having local marinas and Big Bear Village within walking distance.

Originally known as Potters Camp in the early 1900s, Shore Acres Lodge is a unique collection of twelve mountain-style cabins spread across two pine-shaded lakefront acres. Twin Pines gives your group the privacy of its own cabin while providing access to the shared shoreline and recreational amenities found throughout this historic Big Bear property.

Inside, the 822-square-foot cabin offers a flexible layout designed for families and groups of up to eight guests. The first bedroom features a queen/twin bunk plus a sleeper sofa and its own private full bathroom. The second bedroom offers two queen beds along with another private full bathroom. Having a bathroom dedicated to each bedroom provides added privacy and convenience, especially when everyone is getting ready for another day of Big Bear adventures.

High-speed Wi-Fi and a flat-screen streaming TV provide modern convenience when it's time to unwind indoors, while the Shore Acres setting gives you plenty of reasons to head outside. Big Bear Lake is just steps away, with shared direct lake access, a seasonal boat dock, and a fishing area available to guests.

During the warmer months, enjoy the shared community swimming pool on weekends from Memorial Day through Labor Day. The spacious lodge grounds also feature horseshoes, volleyball, outdoor table tennis, a kids swing set, and a large BBQ and picnic area. Grill dinner on the provided charcoal BBQ, gather beneath the pines, or simply enjoy the laid-back atmosphere of this historic lakefront property.

Twin Pines is also pet-friendly for up to two pets with additional fees, making it easier to include the whole family in your getaway.

It was a cozy little cabin. Perfect for a weekend to decompress. Regardless of the wind the walk to the lake was beautiful. Would love to return.

Couch bed was broken and didn’t receive the code to get key for the lockbox but luckily while they cleared the snow they had it left unlocked. However, it was a nice cabin plus we went during the snow so most outside things to do like the heated pool/jacuzzi ,ping pong table, volleyball or horse shoe things to do were snowed in

4/10 Poor

Worn tired property

We got there and the heat was set at 90! The door did not fit properly and there was a draft! The living room was okay. The bedrooms - had curtains that looked like they were 50 years old.. Quilts musty smelling. No sheet on box spring - a personal peeve of mine! Bed okay - not super comfy. Showers - hard to keep a constant temperature. Kitchen - very very small - narrow. I would not come here again. And I would not recommend. Location was good - very close to the lake.

Nice quiet family place

Overall we were pleased with our stay. The cabin was spatious there were some minor issues with the front door and steps but they came and fixed it right away. This place is definitely not high end but we enjoyed our stay very much and we would come back again
