About this property
The Stargazer Chalet-VIEWS From the very Top of Moonridge
This cabin was designed for the Big Bear experience! For us, that was the whole point. The first time we came to this town we instantly fell in love, but the hotels left a little to be desired. We wanted a private space with some of that classic cabin feel, but also just enough upscale accommodation to make it feel cozy and modern. We wanted a private hot tub. We wanted a wood fireplace. We wanted VIEWS! So we purchased this cabin for it's AMAZING location on the very top of the ridge, and then remodeled it to have an updated contemporary look with just enough rustic nostalgia to match the beauty of the mountains.
This location is PERFECT for families and small gatherings, and can accommodate all types of occasions. Outside we have created a wrap-around deck that gives you a full-day lounging experience. Enjoy the sunrise with a cup of coffee from the front deck as it illuminates the majesty of Bear Mountain, or have a game of Cornhole while listening to our collection of classic vinyl tracks on the record player. In the back you can enjoy a day of grilling and cold beverages followed by a dip in the oversized hot tub under the starry night sky. The kids will enjoy the loft upstairs with foosball, games, plush oversized bean bags, etc., (and it's perfect for family movie nights). And best of all, if you are headed to Bear Mountain or the zoo it's only a short walk down the ridge! No need for parking or massive lines waiting for the bus.
We are confident that you will find everything that you need here to make this trip to Big Bear the memory of a lifetime. Additionally, this home is independently owned and operated so we will be responsive and attentive to your needs. We strive for 5-star experiences so if there is anything we can do to enhance your trip let us know.
*Walking distance to Bear Mountain

About the host
Hosted by Chris and Melanie
The first time we visited Big Bear Lake was during the height of the pandemic. Just like all the city folk with nothing to do we ventured to the mountain with our two young children in hopes of finding adventure, quiet reprieve, and to maybe catch a fish or two. To our surprise, and after a couple bottles of wine, we realized that feeling inside was not just the Pinot Noir, but a true connection to the scenic mountains, the tranquility of the lake, and the quaint little town full of shopping and eateries. In a time of turmoil we found a true sense of belonging. We were home.
Why they chose this property
We had a vision of what staying in Big Bear should look like. The motels are okay but not exactly what we were looking for, or private. Most of the cabins were either too massive or too...quilty?? We needed something cozy, something calm...yet majestic. We found it.
And then we spent the next two years transforming it in to the vision we had in our minds. Everything you will see here has been custom re-modeled to accommodate the perfect Big Bear vacation for families or small groups of friends.

What makes this property unique
It's the VIEWS! You can't beat the top of the ridge. We have Bear Mountain in front of us and the North Ridge in back, which looks AMAZING at night. Short of a house right on the lake we think we're in the best location in Big Bear.
