Recreation

Live it. Up.

There's an island in the sky just 99 miles east of Los Angeles that's Mother Nature's four seasons resort. This simply means you get a new Big Bear recreation experience each time you visit. Come see the vibrant hues of colorful leaves in autumn, angelic white snow flutter in winter, wildflowers blooming in spring and lake activities that shine in summer. You can count on us to deliver mountainous Big Bear recreation adventures for all ages, and stages, all year long.

Spring

Hop into spring and embrace the sights and sounds of the pine-scented forest rustling from under its snowy winter wrap.

Summer

Once Old Man Winter packs it in, the sun warms up the mountains, days become longer and outdoor recreation blossoms!

Fall

As summer fades into fall, the air turns crisp as golden hues cast a warm glow over Big Bear.

Winter

Step into our enchanted winter wonderland and awaken your childlike wonder from its own hibernation.
