About this property

"The Grand" Big Bear Lakefront Log Home. Private Dock. Fire Pit. Hot tub.

This beautifully decorated home with its spectacular views is unlike any other in Big Bear Lake. Located on a quiet cul-de-sac on Inspiration Point at the far reaches of Boulder Bay, the views are breathtaking from every direction. Expect an 'over the top' experience when staying in this home. The unique living space offers a cozy and comfortable cabin feeling. The beautiful full round hand peeled logs, the hardwood floors, granite counter tops and comfortable furniture boasts a true mountain home experience. The outdoor patio with fireplace is where you will probably spend much of your time enjoying the view and relaxing as you listen to the mountain sounds next to a crackling fire. The lower patio is a perfect place to relax in an Adirondack chair with your feet up as you watch the 'Pirate Ship' or 'Big Bear Queen' tour boats go by -- have your camera ready! If you are a sun worshiper, you'll enjoy the 3rd patio lakeside, or better yet, go ahead and walk out onto the dock to be even closer to all of the lake action -- fishing, boating, boarding, tubing, kayaking and swimming. As evening approaches, have your camera ready again because you will see some of the most beautiful sunsets ever.

Visit The Village with all of its unique shops and quaint restaurants. Take advantage of countless hiking and biking trails and other attractions. Whatever you like, we are sure you will make wonderful memories at 'The Grand on Inspiration Point' in Big Bear Lake -- Southern California's only Four Season getaway.

*This home has many steps inside and outside. We are not able to accommodate wheelchairs. Elderly and those with walkers might find it difficult to move freely throughout this house.

Stunning home and location! Exceptionally clean and well stocked with everything you need for a peaceful get away. Beautifully decorated, landscaped and well maintained. There are many spaces to take in the view of the lake or relax by the fire. Plenty of room to enjoy time together or escape for some solitude. Great communication with prompt reply and convenient check in.

Best location on the lake with beautiful sunsets. House is very warm and inviting and easily provided space for our adult kids. There are so many nooks and places to sit or hang out it was easy for my wife and I to get away from everyone to relax. I can't recommend it more highly.

Another fantastic visit to The Grand in Big Bear - being on the lake makes this house so special, with views from almost every room! the outdoor living area off the kitchen is perfect for meals, game nights, afternoon naps and a nice crackling fire on cool nights. we especially love the private spa overlooking the lake, so relaxing to watch the boats go by. the dock is a big plus as we love to fish and swim and bring in kayaks and paddle boards. the layout of the bedrooms gives all guests privacy to escape then come together for a game of pool or poker in the family room downstairs which also has an amazing lake view. cannot wait to return!

We had a great time. The views of the lake were breathtaking. We would definitely stay again. The only problem was there are steps going down to the master which gave my elderly mother some troubles along with the height of the bed... we had to go buy a stepstool.

A bit of heaven on earth

After coming here annually starting nine years ago, it still feels like experiencing it for the first time. Great home, best host, helpful check-in personnel. The home is always nice and clean. I hope my picture tells it all. It's a view from the balcony after a great day on the lake.

Absolutely Amazing 10/10

An absolute stunner when it comes to the view and caliber of real estate… truly an unmatched piece property on the lake in Big Bear, and centrally located to everything you need in the village. Seeing this view, our group felt like we were in a VRBO commercial. We knew it was going to be a good stay, but not THIS good. Home was large, yet had a very comfortable feel, both for the adults and kids. Owner was very communicative and accommodating. Sad to leave but we absolutely plan to return. 10/10 across the board.

Why they chose this property

We have visited Big Bear for years with our children, family and friends, both during the summer and winter, and fell in love with everything it has to offer. We built our log home on Inspiration Point in 1999 and are enjoying it now more than ever.

What makes this property unique

The Grand is the premiere lake front property on Big Bear Lake. The best deep-water fishing spot on the lake might just be right off the dock here. During your getaway, you can enjoy the Spring budding or Fall foilage over the mountains that create a unique, picturesque view from any spot in the house or yard. Experience nature and the wildlife at its best including chipmunks, squirrels and an array of birds at play. You might evev witness a visit from one of the raccoon families that reside in the area. No lions and tigers and the only bears you'll see are carved ones.

Bring your dog along to enjoy the fun.

Rent a boat, kayak, paddle board near by.

The neighborhood is wonderful for your morning or evening walks, or to seek out the hidden trails that run along the lake and throughout the hills.

Spring and Fall are very delightful at The Grand. Did you know that May/June have no gloom up here with beautiful blue skies and most of the time September/October are two of our best months weather wise - usually very nice for lake activities.

In all, you'll find getting away from the 'city bustle' is a refreshing and uplifting treat that revives your inner soul and will surely have you coming back for more getaways year after year, season after season.
