Sierra Chalet. A Restored Mountain Cabin With Its Own Point of View.
Tucked into the pines in Moonridge on the Bear Mountain side of Big Bear Lake, Sierra Chalet is a renovated two-bedroom, two-bath cabin with lake, ski-area and forest views, two levels of outdoor living, a private hot tub and the kind of character that feels built rather than staged.
Classic Big Bear bones. A much more considered second life.
Sierra Chalet was brought back through an extensive renovation that refreshed the kitchen, major systems, exterior envelope and the way the living room connects visually to the mountain setting.
Inside, warm wood, a fireplace and a deep green kitchen keep the home unmistakably cabin while giving it a cleaner, more design-forward feel.
A real kitchen for a real cabin weekend.
The renovated kitchen includes owner-reported Wi-Fi-enabled Café appliances and gives the house a strong indoor gathering point for breakfast before the mountain, dinner after the lake or a full night in.
The upper deck adds natural-gas barbecue use, so warm-weather meals can move outside when the forest air is better than a restaurant wait.
Lake views above. Recreation below.
The two-level deck system is one of Sierra Chalet’s defining features. The upper level is the open-air deck for views and grilling. The screened lower level turns into a forest recreation room with a private hot tub and ping-pong.
It works in more than one season and gives guests somewhere to spread out without leaving the property.
A mountain home shaped by its setting.
One cabin that changes with Big Bear.
The attraction is not a single season. It is how differently the same house feels throughout the year.
Snow season
Bear Mountain access, snowy arrivals, a warm fireplace and hot-tub nights.
Lake season
Boating, hiking and mountain days followed by grilling and long deck evenings.
Shoulder seasons
Spring and fall bring quieter weekends, changing forest color and more reason to enjoy the house itself.
Close to the mountain. Tucked away when you return.
The property has walkable access to Bear Mountain ski terrain and sits in the Moonridge area at the end of a cul-de-sac. That combination gives guests access to recreation without losing the privacy and forest feeling that make a cabin stay worth booking.
