About this property

Bear Valley family fun in the trees

Classic a-frame cabin in Bear Valley. Swim, fish and hike in ithe summer. Downhill and cross-country ski in the winter.

Three stories - upstairs loft has queen bed and two singles. One bedroom on main floor has a double bed. Other bedroom on main floor has four twins in two bunk beds. Main floor includes kitchen, bathroom, couch with 2 rollouts, dining booth and living room with fireplace, large windows with view of trees and open floor plan - sliding glass doors open onto deck. Please note that as of 8/1/26 the downstairs unit is occupied by a full time female renter that was raised in Bear Valley and works locally. The door stairs room has a locked door and the upstairs cannot be accessed by the downstairs unit.

Come enjoy the tranquility of high Sierra mountain forest in the summer. Nearby lakes and rivers offer swimming, fishing and kayaking.

In the winter, you will find yourself in a true winter wonderland. The roads aren't plowed, access is by snowmobile. You will need to arrange your transport in and out with snowmobile either by renting your own or reserving a taxi ride with a local snowmobile company. We have a snowmobile taxi service that we can recommend (the good news that he is generally flexible with hours, within reason and with advance notice) -- if you need a snowmobile taxi, it is $60 per hour. In good snow years, you can ski to the shuttle to Bear Valley ski resort and then ski back at the end of the day. Bear Valley village is just a 15 minute walk away (about 5-6 blocks). It is easy and beautiful to walk.

Come enjoy this comfortable cabin in a unique mountain setting.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

About the host

Hosted by Freya McCamant

Host profile image
We purchased this home in spring of 2013, because we love skiing at Bear Valley. It reminds us of what Tahoe used to be with a relaxed family friendly atmosphere. Everyone we have met goes the extra mile. We love the adventure of skiing in and out. After spending time there during the summer of 2013, we have fallen in love with the summer season as well. There are camp opportunities for kids from soccer to archery. There are numerous hiking, mountain biking, swimming and fishing opportunities in the nearby lakes, rivers, National Forests and Wilderness areas. Some people enjoy Bear Valley in the summer more than the winter -- our family of four loves both seasons. We hope that whatever season you chose to go that you will find the Bear Valley area as inspiring as we have!
