Why they chose this property
Marco and I grew up in the European mountains, on the Italian Alps in the Lakes districts, at the border with Switzerland.
When we first visited Big Bear we immediately felt in love of the mountain views, the lake and winter sports, the year round hikes, the local rescues zoo.
We started visiting Big Bear during the different seasons, for hikes, photographing fall colors, skiing. After Luca and Sofia were born (5 and 6 year old) we decided to look for a place to be our family gateway in the mountains, so that they could experience the seasons, the life close to nature and for the all family to have a place where to relax after stressful city weeks.
We immediately felt in love with our chummy home where we are building lasting mountain memories for our family and our wonderful kids Luca and Sofia (5 and 6 years).

What makes this property unique
We immediately fell in love of the open and airy floor plan that allows for a great interaction between kitchen, living room and game room; great and spacious living space; high cathedral ceilings bringing in a lot of light;
We love the outside mountain log style, and the inside comfort of a relatively new house (built in 2005).
All of this plus a great location: the house is easily accessible year long (even with difficult weather conditions), and centrally located:
- 3 minutes walk to the brewery, restaurant and Bakery ( I love walking to the coffee shop for a fresh croissant in the morning)
- 15 minutes walk to the lake
- 20 minutes walk to the Village
- minutes drive to the slope
