Big Bear Lake has so many events happening all the time, it can be hard to keep up! On the first Tuesday of every month, we will dedicate Tuesday’s Topic to upcoming events so that you can plan ahead to join us for the fun!

We received several inches of much-needed snow last weekend and the Ski Resorts and Snow Play Areas are still going strong! Beautiful weather is expected this coming week – mild days, cool nights and blue skies.

Check out just some of the upcoming Big Bear Events and when you see something you would like to take part in, head on over to RSVacations.net and book a Big Bear Cabin for your trip. We have dozens of cabins to choose from and we run specials on a pretty regular basis. Book today!!
