About this property

Big Bear Retreat · Chalet Lake Views & Giant Chess

Welcome to your private mountain retreat at Raccoon Hollow!

Escape to the tranquility of nature and unwind in this modern slant-roof chalet, tucked away in the exclusive and peaceful Fawnskin neighborhood of Big Bear Lake. This beautifully designed home offers the perfect balance of contemporary comfort and rustic charm, making it an ideal getaway for families, couples, or small groups of friends looking to relax, recharge, and reconnect.

With breathtaking panoramic views of the lake and forest, this home invites you to slow down and take in the beauty of the surrounding mountains. Whether you're sipping your morning coffee on the deck, watching the sunrise peek over the trees, or enjoying a glass of wine by the fire pit in the evening, you'll be immersed in the natural serenity that only Big Bear can offer.

The chalet features 2 spacious bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to 6 guests. Each bedroom is thoughtfully furnished with cozy bedding, ample storage space, and charming mountain-inspired decor. The primary bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom, providing added privacy and comfort. Both bathrooms are well-stocked with essentials, clean towels, and hotel-quality touches to make your stay as convenient as possible.

The open-concept living and dining area is designed with relaxation in mind. Sink into the oversized sectional sofa and enjoy movie nights or game days on the massive 85" HDTV, complete with streaming capabilities. The vaulted ceiling and large picture windows flood the space with natural light during the day, while a cozy fireplace creates the perfect ambiance on chilly mountain nights.

Step into the fully stocked kitchen, where you'll find everything you need to prepare home-cooked meals. From cookware and utensils to a coffee maker and modern appliances, this kitchen makes it easy to cook for your group. Enjoy meals together at the dining table or take it outside to dine al fresco with lake views.

The outdoor space at Raccoon Hollow truly sets it apart. Play a fun game of giant outdoor chess, roast marshmallows around the wood-burning fire pit, or simply relax on the deck and breathe in the fresh mountain air. There’s plenty of space to unwind, explore, and make memories.

Planning to bring your furry companion? We’re happy to welcome your well-behaved dog (with prior approval)! The property has room for pets to explore, and Big Bear Lake is a dog-friendly destination with plenty of trails and outdoor activities for everyone.
