The summer is slowly winding down...but it's not over yet! We still have properties left for this Labor Day Holiday. Don't wait! Our current special is offering 3 nights for the price of 2!

Click here for more details!

The Current Weather Forecast

High pressure will continue to bring us nice summer weather this week with light afternoon winds as daytime highs climb back into the 70s while overnights cool into the 30s. Over the weekend a brief intrusion of monsoon moisture will bring some afternoon clouds, even a slight chance of an afternoon thundershower Saturday or Sunday before a drier southwest flow develops Labor Day for a minor cooling trend into next week. All in all, little change to our typical late summer weather.

This Week In Big Bear

It's another gorgeous summer day in Big Bear Lake! A few clouds are breaking up the normally solid blue sky for a nice change of pace. We might even see a thunderstorm or two! Now is the time to come up and enjoy the lake before the seasons change!

The Current Forecast

"Expect a few afternoon clouds Wednesday but any thundershower development will be very isolated, if at all. Fair & dryer through the weekend with temperatures close to normal as highs climb into the upper 70s as overnights generally cool into the 40s. An increase in moisture may bring a return of afternoon thundershowers by early next week."
