Evergreen Retreat by AvantStay | Outdoor Dining + Lounge | Forest Views | Mins to Skiing & The Village

Tucked into the pines on a quiet stretch of Big Bear Lake's south shore, Evergreen Retreat is the kind of mountain home that pulls a group together without crowding anyone out. The open-concept main level flows easily between the kitchen, dining, and living areas — designed for the kind of weekend where someone's always pouring coffee, someone's mid-card-game, and someone else is heading out for a hike. A fireplace anchors the living space, adding to the alpine atmosphere. The expansive deck is the social heart of the home in warmer months. A long table seats eight for al fresco dinners, lounge furniture invites slower afternoons, and the BBQ and outdoor cooking area means meals can move outside whenever the weather cooperates. Forest views stretch out beyond the railing — the kind of quiet that's hard to find back home. Inside, five bedrooms sleep up to 16. The primary suite is a king retreat for the trip planners; a queen room offers a quieter corner; and three additional bedrooms — two with a pair of queens, one with twin-over-full bunks — make it easy to host families, friend groups, or multigenerational crews without anyone drawing the short straw. A dedicated kitchenette and cards table create a second hangout zone, while the garage adds even more room for friendly competition with air hockey and ping pong. The laundry room and pet-wash station (TBC) make longer stays — and four-legged guests — that much easier. The location lands you in the sweet spot of Big Bear. Snow Summit and Bear Mountain are both about a five-minute drive, putting first chair within easy reach on ski mornings. The Village's restaurants, breweries, and shops are a quick hop away, and the lake itself — with its marinas, paddleboard rentals, and lakeside trails — is practically at your doorstep. Whether you're chasing fresh powder, summer hikes through the San Bernardino National Forest, or just a long weekend of doing absolutely nothing, this stretch of Evergreen Drive sets the stage.
