Flip Flop Ranch

Farmstays offer a peek into a rural lifestyle that disappeared for many when the family farm was sold, often generations ago. There is a pace to life on the farm that starts with the early morning wake-up call by the rooster and the sound of the farm equipment and that ends with quiet and the total darkness at night, except for a fantastic view of the stars. 
The Flip Flop Ranch farmstay has sheep and lambs, pigs and piglets, cows, chickens, bunches of barn cats (with plenty of kittens), geese, ducks, turkeys, goats, horses and more.
Host a family get together, a business retreat or a hangout with friends! 
“Just being on a farm is good for the soul."–Scottie Jones farmstay US 
Your visit starts off with a tour through the farm to learn where things are and to gain some basic knowledge about what we do and the types of livestock we raise. You are welcome to join us for feeding and milking in the morning and afternoon!
Main home Beds are as follows: 2 full beds in room 1 downstairs, 2 full beds in room 2 downstairs, 2 queens in master bedroom upstairs, 1 king in bedroom upstairs, 1 full in bedroom upstairs.
All beds will be freshly made with clean white linens and there will also be fresh bath towels and courtesy soaps provided for all our guests.
There is no smoking permitted inside the home and unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate any pets. Guests found with pets at the property will result in an immediate forfeiture of the remaining reservation days and loss of $500 security deposit.

Guest Access
The entire farm house is yours to use, including the kitchen with full amenities. Feel free to wonder the farm and go into the petting zoo pen whenever you like to hug the fluffy sheep.
The most important activity to consider is the “art of relaxation.” When you find yourself surrounded by natural beauty, slow down, breathe deeply and appreciate it. Watch a sunset, go bird-watching, take a walk through the desert, listen to the livestock, read a good book or just sit quietly and let your mind wander. Blue skies, clean, fresh air, starry nights and the sounds of silence are all included in your airbnb stay.
Interaction with Guests
All guests get a free tour of the farm and can join the farmers for feeding and milking in the morning and evening when possible. This depends on our schedule and whether or not you are around when we feed. Feel free to ask us about feeding times as it changes. 
Guest may be greeted by the farmer but if we are out running errands a combo lockbox is on-site for 24 hour key access upon arrival.
Other Things to Note
The home is located on a working farm surrounded by miles of beautiful desert with hardly any neighbors. Plenty of space to go hiking. Located five miles down the mountain from Big Bear and the ski areas. We're also only 22 miles (about a half hour) from Means Lake in Johnson Valley where King of the Hammers takes place. Johnson Valley also offers fantastic off highway vehicle areas for dirt biking or rock crawling all year long.

Sky Ranch in Big Bear

This is a truly unique piece of land, for travelers who want to experience pure nature and the spirit of a bygone age.

The ranch sits at 7,000 feet, surrounded by towering old-growth Jeffrey pines.  While nearly all the other camping spots in Big Bear Valley are packed tightly together, as soon as you enter our private five-acre Sky Ranch, you can discover true seclusion.

This land was homesteaded by a Swiss woman, who called it home from 1915 until 1988.

Step onto the broad wooden Star Deck, and you're looking at an alpine forest which has changed little since the Serrano Indians first arrived here 3,000 years ago.  There are no homes visible -- and immediately adjacent to your camping spot, you'll find the trails of the San Bernardino National Forest, winding through hundreds of square miles of pure nature.

This property is quiet night and day, the perfect break from harried city life.  The only sounds you're likely to hear are wind through the trees, and birds which glide from tree to tree.  And when the brilliant colors of sunset subside, thousands of stars emerge to remind you of why the Milky Way got its name.

--------------------------------
* Yes, dogs can come too!
* During holidays, we may ask a 3-night minimum stay.
* For special events, see calendar at Big Bear website.
--------------------------------

The Sky Ranch is adjacent to hundreds of square miles of forest.  The famous Pacific Crest Trail, which stretches 2,663 miles from Canada to Mexico, passes just east of us.

This land is a perfect retreat — whether you’re escaping the city or taking a break from a PCT trek.  Even on big holiday weekends, you'll be completely isolated from traffic and crowds.  

In the Summer, Big Bear Valley offers countless hiking trails, boating and fishing in the lake, mountain and road biking, horseback riding, golf, ziplining, the zoo, and many other outdoor activities.  In Winter, there's skiing/boarding, snowshoeing, sledding, and more.

For kids, there's a "fort," swings, and a huge sandbox in a boat.  They're also welcome to help feed our chickens.  That's always a big hit!  And we have a telescope for stargazing.

Some guests swear they can feel the spirits of the Native Americans and others who lived here.  Is it real?  You tell us.

About Town:

The nearest stores and restaurants are within five minutes by car or bus.  The center of Big Bear Lake is 10 to 20 minutes away, and offer scores of restaurants, boutiques, and galleries.

There are also two supermarkets, multiple drug stores, and a hospital.

Also within minutes by car/bus are...

&gt; Two ski and snowboard resorts, Snow Summit and Bear Mountain, offering 26 lifts and 55 runs.  There are excellent schools and family areas, as well as serious terrain parks and an Olympic-size halfpipe.  This is where Shaun White learned to fly!

&gt; Big Bear's famous alpine lake, which offers fishing, all forms of boating, and other water sports.

&gt; Stanfield Marsh Boardwalk & Wildlife Preserve, where you can stroll the boardwalk, have a picnic in the gazebo, or just sit and enjoy the lake and mountain views.

&gt; The U.S. Forest Service Discovery Center, which offers a variety of nature programs.

&gt; A truly remarkable animal park -- one of only two alpine zoos in the U.S. -- housing grizzlies, wood bison, cougars, timber wolves, eagles, and much more.

&gt; Big Bear Valley Museum.  Although you're staying in one of the rarest historical homes in California, the museum has some great exhibits as well, including an example of a stamp mill which was used to crush gold ore in the era when this cabin was built.

&gt; Bear Mountain Golf Course.  At 7,000 feet, it's an entirely different game.

For those seeking a true wilderness adventure, the San Bernardino Mountains offer spectacular terrain.  While the Serranos have called these mountains home for many centuries, Europeans didn't venture into this rugged land till 1850.  It's one of the youngest mountain ranges in the world (in geological terms) and features scores of steep, challenging peaks, which stretch from the natural hot springs of Deep Creek in the west, to huge Yucca forests in the east.

11,500-foot Mount San Gorgonio, named by Spanish missionaries in the early 17th century, is at the center of the first designated wilderness area in America.  Also known as "Old Greyback," San Gorgonio and the 11 surrounding peaks over 10,000 feet are home to an extremely rare herd of bighorn sheep.

The headwaters of the Santa Ana and Mojave rivers offer premier wild trout streams such as Bear Creek, accessible only by foot.

Hundreds of miles of unpaved National Forest roads offer every type of off-road experience -- ranging from an easy drive to Pioneertown, to the most radical 4WD trails imaginable (11 Difficults, six Most Difficults).  The Cabin is right in the middle of the major routes.

After a day here, you may find it hard to believe that you're just 100 miles (and perhaps a century) away from Downtown Los Angeles.

Welcome.

Useful Notes:

Dogs are always welcome, and a spacious dog corral is available.  We do ask guests to pay an added fee of $5 per pup per day.

Propane stoves are OK, and we have a natural-gas BBQ grill available for use.  Outdoor wood fires and/or lighter fluid are never allowed.

There is easy parking for any number of cars.  RVs and trailers are no problem either.  Total charges will depend of the number of guests and vehicles.

Cell phones on Verizon and Sprint will have coverage.  The AT&T and T-Mobile networks still do not cover this area, however the wifi near our home enables calls/texts on most phones.

The public bus stop is a short walk.  Surprisingly, it is possible to take public transit from any train station in SoCal all the way to our bus stop (and vice
versa).  Cheaper than driving, and no worries about weather.  Ask us for details. 

If you're bringing kids, let us know the ages.  You may get a discount. :)

For equestrians, we have a two-acre horse corral, plus hay barn and covered stall.
