QUICK GETAWAYS Big Bear Lake, California Is Above the Clouds. Travel Article by Sandy Zimmerman at the Las Vegas Tribune newspaper - Posted: 01-Jan-08
|
No one needs to tell us how busy life has become. But, I have found
a release for stress and the place to find relaxation: Golden Bear
Cottages in Big Bear Lake, California.
Get ready for skiing, snowboarding, boating, charter fishing,
hiking, an Alpine Slide, Moonridge Zoo, nature nights, hunting for
gold, tubing, mountain biking, golf driving range and golf course,
senic sky chair at Snow summit takes you from 7,000 to 8,500 ft.
elevation. Temperatures tend to remain cool in the high mountains;
even in the Summer it stays in the middle and upper 70's. Big
Bear lake also offers horseback riding, skiing, snowboarding,
wildlife viewing, shopping, parasailing, Sierra Belle sightseeing
boat, and much more mountain fun! You can even take the Trolley and
ride around the lake ($3 for the day).
These are just a few of Don and Karen DiCarlo's (owners of
Golden Bear Cottages Resort) suggestions. They have researched all
of the things to do in the mountains around Big Bear lake and
compiled a guest book of activities, mountain nightlife, along with
suggestions, and will happily answer your questions.
During their first visit to Big Bear Lake, Don and Karen DiCarlo
fell in love with the mountains and bought the Golden Bear Cottages
nine years ago. When you walk among the 500 Pine trees that are
around the Golden Bear Cottages, recreation area, and everywhere
else within the 6 acre resort, you will know why. Some of these 200
year old trees measure from 4 to 5 feet wide. You have all the
outdoor recreational facilities for adults and children without
leaving the resort: heated pool, spa, sand lot volleyball, ping
pong, horseshoes, basketball, shuffleboard, large cedar swings and
slide. Summer movie nights bring everyone to the pool for free
cartoons and a movie on their 60" big screen T. V. Sit at the
large outdoor firepit (weather permitting) at night to get together
with the other guests. You can even use Golden Bear Cottage's
Karaoke equipment, or choose from 50 or more games and thousands of
movies. They even have a quaint gift shop. Whatever reason you are
visiting Big Bear Lake, the Golden Bear Cottages Resort staff can
assist you. If you are planning a wedding, they can make all
arrangements. Groups, churches, clubs, and businesses visit Big
Bear every year for meetings, retreats, family reunions, and
parties. Many are returning guests to Golden Bear Cottages. Three
of the families I met when I visited Golden Bear Cottages had
stayed numerous times before, and make it an annual affair!
Golden Bear Cottages are more than just cottages, they are actually
historic small to medium size private mountain log homes. With 28
cabins and a 3,800 square foot retreat lodge, they have room for
couples, families, and as many as a 202 person group. Each historic
cabin and cottage is different, but they all have a fireplace,
kitchen, and color T. V.'s with DVD and or VCR. Their romantic
separate Jacuzzi cabins seat up to 6 people. I love the Honeymoon
Suite, a restored log cabin hunting lodge built in 1917. You can
watch T. V., movies, or the crackling of the fire from the Jacuzzi.
This suite and many others have high fences for privacy. The high
log ceilings and bent twig swing in the front porch adds to the
historic mountain atmosphere. Each cottage has it's own private
driveway, patio, BBQ, and picnic table; you can still stay close to home, but
visit a different world in Big Bear Lake.
Cottages off-season rates: $79- 699; high season- $99-799;
Discounted rates for military, law enforcement, senior citizens,
AAA, large group packages, and off-season week day specials. Golden
Bear Cottages, celebrating their 81 years as great rustic family
