Some places just have a way of slowing everything down. North Shore Chalet is one of them.
Perched on the quieter, more secluded north shore of Big Bear Lake in Fawnskin, this Cape Cod-style chalet puts you directly on the water — with a private beach, boat dock, and sand volleyball court that most lakefront properties can only promise. While the south shore buzzes with activity, this side of the lake offers something rarer: stillness, space, and the kind of morning where the only thing on the agenda is watching the sun rise over the water with a cup of coffee in hand.
Spread across two levels, the home sleeps nine comfortably with two king bedrooms upstairs and two full bedrooms on the entry level — each floor with its own living space, making it easy for groups to spread out without stepping on each other. A second kitchenette upstairs means the early risers and the night owls can both do their thing without negotiating kitchen time. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living area, and multiple decks give everyone a front-row seat to the lake and the surrounding San Bernardino National Forest.
Outside, the propane BBQ is ready for evening cookouts, the sand volleyball court is an instant crowd-pleaser, and the private dock is your launching point for whatever the lake has in store — whether that's a morning fishing session, a jet ski rental from North Shore Landing marina just down the road, or simply sitting with your feet over the water. Deer, eagles, and the occasional bear have been known to make appearances in the surrounding forest, so keep your eyes open.
Big Bear Village, skiing at Bear Mountain and Snow Summit, and the shops and restaurants along the south shore are all a short drive away — close enough for a day trip, far enough to feel like you've truly gotten away.
