The Neighborhood:

Minnows Big Bear Estate is nestled near Baldwin Lake on the tranquil outskirts of Big Bear — far from the crowds, but never far from what you need:

- Local grocery stores: 15 minutes

- Bear Mountain & Snow Summit Ski Resorts: 20 minutes

- Big Bear Zoo & Golf Course: 20 minutes

- Big Bear Lake & The Village: 20 minutes



Getting Around:

A car is recommended. Long paved driveway with ample parking on-site. Note: the final 500 ft to the property is on an unpaved road off the main boulevard.



Other Things to Note:

- The property is located just off the main boulevard, approximately 500 ft down an unpaved road — a standard vehicle handles it fine in normal conditions.

- The home runs on natural gas tanks. On extended stays, the gas company may need to refill during your visit — this is rare but possible.

- Big Bear is full of wildlife — please exercise caution when enjoying the outdoor property, as you may encounter animals or animal droppings from time to time.

- Exterior security cameras are in place for the safety of all guests.
