Dive into Big Bear, Lake Arrowhead and Inland Empire

Some vacation destinations are known for certain things (a particular theme park, historic museums, deep-sea fishing, etc…) while others require more than one breath to fully give them justice. Big Bear, Lake Arrowhead and Inland Empire make up a California region that packs a punch in every season thanks to a list of possible diversions that’s as long as it is varied.

Take the summer, for example. Either see what the glistening surface of one of the lakes has in store or branch out and do some hiking, biking or horseback riding. Connect with civilization for some antique shopping, visit a museum or zoo or sit down for a delicious dinner. The skies are notoriously sunny around these parts and special events crowd the calendar; that’s just one season…can you handle another?

Winter is snow time, so grab your skis, snowboard or snowshoes, bundle up and prepare to feel the exhilaration of icy fresh air as you ascend the Snow Summit Scenic Sky Chair or drop by Bear Mountain Resort for a few thrills. Whether you’re an old hand or have brought some friends along so that you can all learn (and fall down) together, you’ll experience the catharsis that only the mountains can bring about.

Who knew that just a couple hours north of Los Angeles County you could find such a well-rounded retreat? It’s like summer camp on the grandest scale and it’s a stellar ski locale minus the glitz and congestion of showier spots. Vacation rentals – think cabins, cottages and luxurious chalets - will enhance the whole experience with special touches like Jacuzzi tubs and fireplaces, and thanks to all the wide open space you’ll feel unfettered (but not isolated).

Choose Moonridge, Idyllwild or somewhere in between if a rougher but still very much refined part of California sounds intriguing. Grab a few cohorts and get ready to relax; the San Bernardino Mountains await.
