About this cabin rental

The Lost Compass | Walk to Lake + Hot Tub

Welcome to The Lost Compass, a freshly furnished and modern two-story log cabin chalet within walking distance of Boulder Bay and just five minutes from town. Perfect for families and groups looking to enjoy Big Bear throughout the seasons, this inviting three-bedroom retreat accommodates up to seven guests and combines classic mountain character with modern conveniences, a private hot tub, game room, fully fenced backyard, and pet-friendly accommodations.

Step inside to a cozy living room filled with classic cabin details, including beautiful hardwood floors, knotty pine beamed cathedral ceilings, and large windows that bring in plenty of natural light and provide the perfect setting for watching the snow fall during winter. Comfortable modern couches and sitting chairs surround the cozy gas fireplace and mounted streaming TV, creating an inviting space for movie nights or simply relaxing together after a day of mountain adventures. Complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi is provided, while guests must use their own accounts to access subscription-based streaming services.

The open floor plan flows seamlessly from the living room into the equipped kitchen and dining areas, making it easy to entertain and spend time together. An inviting dining table and breakfast island provide ample seating, while the kitchen offers everything needed to prepare home-cooked meals. Freshly painted cabinetry is stocked with cookware and utensils, and essential appliances plus a dishwasher make meal preparation and cleanup a breeze.

Two guest bedrooms and a hallway bathroom are conveniently located on the downstairs entry level. The first bedroom features a queen bed, while the second offers a full-over-twin bunk bed. Upstairs, the entire second level is dedicated to the spacious primary suite, featuring a king bed, twin sleeper sofa, streaming TV, and private three-quarter bathroom with a shower. A second three-quarter hallway bathroom with a shower serves the entry level. All bedrooms and bathrooms are prepared for your arrival with warm linens, blankets, pillows, and fresh shower towels.

For even more entertainment, the attached garage has been converted into a game room where your group can enjoy arcade games and air hockey no matter the season. A washer and dryer are also available in the garage, adding extra convenience for wet snow clothes, lake days, and extended mountain stays. Outside, the fully fenced and forested private backyard provides plenty of room for kids and pets to enjoy the mountain surroundings. Relax on the sun decks with outdoor patio furnishings, fire up the propane BBQ for dinner, or end your adventurous day with a peaceful soak in the private hot tub beneath the stars. With Boulder Bay and the lake within walking distance, town just five minutes away, and convenient access to the mountains, The Lost Compass makes it easy to enjoy everything Big Bear has to offer.

We loved our stay at The Lost Compass! Beds were very comfortable, the decor was darling and they had all the amenities we wanted including bowls for our dog! Loved sitting on the front porch with coffee in the morning and lounging in the hot tub in the evening. it’s in a really lovely and quiet neighborhood which was perfect for dog walks and there’s a little market and restaurants within walking distance. Communication with Big Bear Vacations was quick and helpful all weekend, highly recommend!

Great location! Beautiful and quiet neighborhood. We could walk to the lake easily. Dog and kid friendly. Loved the spa and game room. Only downside was the trash situation, you have to drive your trash over a mile away to throw it out and it’s only open 8 to 5pm. Other than that, we had a great time and would return.

Beautiful cabin! We had such a great time for our son’s 16th birthday! The cabin was stocked with everything we needed, great location, and looked just like the pictures. Will definitely book with them for our next stay.
6 / 10Average·Aug 2024
Didn’t feel clean, had items in disrepair including an upstairs window and the front screen door, as well as a badly stained carpet upstairs. It was well stocked with all necessary items, and the back yard was enjoyable. The listing says no AC, which would be fine, if there were adequate ways of cooling the house down. However the house, particularly the upstairs remained very warm throughout the day and night, making sleep difficult. I wouldn’t stay here again.
