Few mountain cabins offer a year-round indoor pool beneath warm timber rafters – this Big Bear house does, and it changes everything. Gather round the stone fireplace in the double-height living room after a day on the slopes, then head upstairs to the game room for a few rounds of pool. Outside, the fire pit patio comes into its own as the sun drops behind the pines. Big Bear Village and the lake shore are both within a ten-minute walk, making this a genuinely versatile base whatever the season brings.
