By the Fairways
Big Bear isn't a golf-resort town with dozens of courses — it's a mountain community with one memorable high-altitude course. Homes near it are limited and distinctive.
The Bear Mountain Golf Course is a nine-hole course set around 7,000 feet with sweeping San Bernardino Mountain views, a driving range, and lessons. It's a summer-season amenity that gives the surrounding area a relaxed, open feel.
Because it's a single, compact course, true fairway-adjacent homes are limited — which makes them special. Buyers value the open sightlines, the greenbelt feel, and being a short hop from a tee time on a summer morning.
The real draw is the combination: golf in summer, skiing in winter, and the lake in between, all within minutes. A home near the course puts you close to one amenity while staying central to the rest of Big Bear's four-season lineup.
