Welcome to Your Dream Big Bear Getaway!
Nestled at the very end of peaceful Marlowe Drive, this beautifully renovated 3-bedroom, 2-bath cabin is a rare find—backing directly to the National Forest for unmatched privacy, stunning mountain and forest views, and immediate access to endless hiking trails just steps from your deck.
Once a long-abandoned 1-bedroom cabin, this home has been transformed into a stylish, fully-permitted mountain retreat featuring both original rustic charm and modern upgrades throughout. Located in a serene, low-traffic setting, it’s the last home on the street, offering the seclusion and nature connection so many Big Bear buyers are seeking.

3 spacious bedrooms & 2 bathrooms (1 full, 1 three-quarter), thoughtfully designed for comfort and function
Wrap-around deck with panoramic views of towering pine trees and the San Bernardino Mountains—ideal for morning coffee or evening stargazing
Open-concept living area with warm wood accents, dual sliding glass doors, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace for those snowy winter nights
Updated kitchen and bathrooms with modern finishes
Ample off-street parking with easy access to the cabin
Second-floor retreat with 2 bedrooms, including one with sliding glass doors leading to a private balcony and forest views
In-cabin laundry hookups (stackable washer/dryer ready)
The Location: A Nature Lover’s Paradise
This property is a true escape into the mountains, offering direct access to protected wilderness—hike, bike, or snowshoe right out your back door! Yet it's still conveniently located near Big Bear Lake, the Village, and both Bear Mountain and Snow Summit ski resorts. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, second home, or income-generating vacation rental, this cabin checks all the boxes.
Renovation Status: Pending Permit
