Quiet, authentic cabin perfect for a couple’s getaway!

Authentic, peaceful cottage ideal for a trip with your partner! Cozy up by the wood-burning fireplace in this charming one-bedroom cottage located in Big Bear City's densely forested neighborhood. The inside of this cabin, which has been exquisitely designed, is cozy and inviting. The cottage is accessible to all attractions as well as the local store. The Sugar Shack is located in a lovely, tranquil setting.

The Sugar Shack Cabin is around 4 miles from the ski slopes and approximately 4.5 miles from the village center. There is one bedroom and one bathroom in the cabin. The cabin's bedroom contains a full-size bed and an adjacent full bathroom. The kitchen in the cabin is well-stocked and ready for you to use, with appliances, cookware, dishware, cutlery and utensils, glasses and everything you'll need to create a quick snack or a complete in-cabin family supper... we even give wine glasses! Wake up to your freshly prepared coffee and sit outdoors to enjoy the woodland views while listening to the birds chirp.

Whether you've planned a day on the slopes, a day on the lake, or any of the numerous other activities and attractions, you'll have a great day.

Whether you’ve planned a day on the slopes, a day on the lake, or any of the many other activities and attractions you’ll find on the mountain you’re sure to have a great day and when you’re done you have this great cabin to relax in.

The maximum occupancy for this cabin is two cars and an extra space for a large RV or boat trailer if you need it, and a four-guests. Sorry, firewood not provided. Sorry, no pets are allowed.

The Sugar Shack is next door to another one of our larger 3-bedroom cabins called Sugar Bear Retreat. If you have family and want to rent both to be beside each other but not in the same cabin, you can look at my other listings and book "Sugar Bear Retreat".

Guest has full access to the house without having to share the space with anyone else.

I like to give guest privacy and not bother them. If you ever need me I am always just a quick Airbnb message away.

Nice neighborhood. Airbnb & permanent neighbors combined. Very pine treed area and a block over from National Forest. Nice walking area and only 4 miles to ski slopes and 2 to tubing hill. 4 blocks from main road...Big Bear Blvd. Close to Thelma's famous restaurant and 5 miles to in-town dining.

Ubers and taxis are plentiful. We are conveniently located not too far but yet away from the stopped traffic on the roads. Great neighborhood market just down the street. Miss the big, crowded stores.
