About this property

Sleeps 23 | 2 Homes, Lakefront, Private Dock, Hot Tub, Game Room, Swingset, View

Welcome to Classic Lake House & Gambler by AvantStay! These two homes are right across the street from each other, with a combined total of 8 bedrooms, sleeping 23 guests—an ideal option for family trips or groups looking to spread out.

Classic Lake House
Welcome to Classic Lake House. This Classic Lake House is one of the original lakefront homes in Big Bear Lake. On a double-wide lot, This Classic Lake House brings you back to a time when life was simpler, relaxing, fun-filled, and stress-free. Travel to this mountain lake home and you will discover what life is all about. Beautiful… fun… fresh mountain air… laughs… good times! 20 feet of deep shoreline, incredible panoramic views of the lake that will include front row seats of the July 4th fireworks. No better way to enjoy the nation's Independence Day than on a dock, on a lake, watching Southern California's best fireworks display. Partially updated in 2020 with new decor and mountain modern furniture, this property is cozy and comfortable. Four bedrooms, including one bunk room for 4-6 kids, will have the entire family dreaming of the day fishing, skiing, exploring, and hanging out on the new deck. The expansive, tree-covered backyard includes a brand new hot tub, swing set, horseshoe pit, and deep water dock for all your water toys.

Gambler
Welcome to Gambler. Escape to Big Bear and rejoice in the serenity that exudes from this dreamy mountain getaway. Spend your days on the glistening Big Bear lake, shred some snow on Big Bear Mountain or take to one of the many hiking trails nearby. The stunning surroundings are encompassed by aromatic pine trees and lush greenery. There is also a volleyball court and balcony. Inside is a warm invitation of gorgeous timber walls and cozy furnishings with a modern chef's kitchen that makes preparing après-ski snacks a pleasure and returning home a delight.

AvantStay provides an upscale experience with services that elevate your stay and save time so you can enjoy every moment. Guests have access to a 24/7 support team and a tech-enabled concierge to book services, such as fridge stocking, mid-stay cleanings, and private chefs.
