We love Bear Valley and are excited to share our cabin for newcomers or those already familiar with this still realatively hidden Sierra gem.
Why they chose this property
This cabin is one of approximately a dozen cabins situated right on Bear Valley Lake. It also located right above a beach that is perfect for all ages. Swimming, boating, fishing are some of our favorite summer activities.
In the winer you can ski in/out and never have to get in your car until it is time to leave.

What makes this property unique
The property was designed and built in 1968 by legendary San Francisco Bay Bridge architect of record, Donal McDonald, who as of 2024 is not only alive and but still working at the young age of 87! In the photos we've included a magazine profile of the cabin, and we have all of Donald's books in the cabin library.
