Hobbit House | Historic 1928 Cabin Near Slopes, Lake & Village

Step into nearly a century of Big Bear history at Hobbit House, a whimsical 1928 cabin filled with character, unexpected details, and one-of-a-kind mountain charm. From little doors and hidden stairs to a secret passage waiting to be discovered, this three-bedroom retreat offers an experience unlike your typical Big Bear cabin while keeping you close to the slopes, lake, and The Village.

Inside, vintage character and modern entertainment come together throughout the home. Stained glass windows, unique architectural details, and cozy spaces reflect the cabin's historic roots, while large streaming TVs and Wi-Fi provide the conveniences of today. Explore the home and discover its playful layout, hidden connections between rooms, and charming details that have made this cabin a Big Bear original since 1928.

The traditional cabin kitchen continues the home's historic feel and provides a comfortable space for preparing meals during your stay. Nearby, one of the two full bathrooms features a classic claw-foot bathtub—a fitting detail for a home that has welcomed mountain visitors for almost 100 years.

Three comfortable bedrooms accommodate up to six guests. The first bedroom features a king bed, streaming TV, and fireplace for cozy evenings in. The second and third bedrooms each offer a queen bed and streaming TV, with the second bedroom also featuring a sofa. Two full hallway bathrooms provide convenience for the group.

When you're ready to explore, Hobbit House puts many of Big Bear's favorite attractions within easy reach. Snow Summit and Bear Mountain are both a quick drive away for skiing and snowboarding, while Big Bear Lake is just moments to the north. During warmer months, enjoy nearby hiking and biking trails or swimming at Meadow Park. The Village offers year-round shopping and dining, and several eateries are located just a couple of blocks from the cabin.
