Cabins near Big Bear Lake

·

In the San Bernardino Mountains east of Los Angeles, Big Bear Lake offers boating, kayaking, and fishing in the summer, as well as hiking in San Bernardino National Forest. When the snow falls, a cozy cabin is the perfect base for a ski getaway at local ski resorts like Bear Mountain. The spring and fall seasons are typically less busy and have more variable weather, meaning you’ll likely have an easier time finding an available cabin, as long as you don’t mind a chance of rain or early- or late-season snow. Look for a cabin near the town of Big Bear Lake, on the south shore, if you want to be close to lakefront amenities, or consider the smaller Green Valley Lake just to the west, where more cabins can be found.

Van Life Campgrounds (or VLCs for short) are a growing network of community-oriented campgrounds created just for nomads on wheels. Unlike typical campgrounds where everyone hides away in their own little spot, at a VLC everyone parks around a central “hangout” area designed to bring folks together! Picture a communal kitchen for shared meals, big tables to gather around for board games, movie nights on the projector, or passing a bottle around the bonfire. Whether it’s planned or an impromptu hangout after work (we 9-5'ing out here!), VLCs are all about creating unique experiences and silly memories together. Our locations are funded and owned by nomads offering ownership & wealth building opportunities back to the community that supports us.

Van Life Campgrounds (or VLCs for short) are a growing network of community-oriented campgrounds created just for nomads on wheels. Unlike typical campgrounds where everyone hides away in their own little spot, at a VLC everyone parks around a central “hangout” area designed to bring folks together! Picture a communal kitchen for shared meals, big tables to gather around for board games, movie nights on the projector, or passing a bottle around the bonfire. Whether it’s planned or an impromptu hangout after work (we 9-5'ing out here!), VLCs are all about creating unique experiences and silly memories together. Our locations are funded and owned by nomads offering ownership & wealth building opportunities back to the community that supports us.
