Description

Life by the water offers stunning views of Big Bear Lake and the surrounding National Forest—it truly doesn’t get better than this. This rare Recreation Residence in Big Bear Valley was once owned by artist and cartoonist Victor Clyde Forsythe (1885–1962), a close friend of Walt Disney. Built in the 1920s, the cabin still holds original sketches and notes scattered throughout. The spacious family room believed to be Forsythe’s art studio, features a massive skylight and plentiful windows that bring the outdoors in.

The front door opens to tall, vaulted ceilings in the large living room with a beautiful native rock fireplace and an open loft bedroom. Additionally, there are two bedrooms and a half bath on the second floor. A separate guest suite just outside the kitchen door adds more sleeping space with its own half bath and hookups for a stackable washer/dryer. Though updated for modern comfort, the cabin retains its rustic charm, with a kitchen boasting new cabinets, countertops, and plumbing, alongside a still-functional antique Wedgewood stove.

A covered porch provides the perfect spot to relax and take in the water views right across the highway. A new roof was installed in 2024 and ample parking for 2 cars. The driveway can be plowed in winter, offering year-round access. Situated on the peaceful North Shore, it’s just 15 minutes from the Village and 2 miles from the quaint hamlet of Fawnskin. Ideal for a serene mountain escape or hosting visitors, the property offers seller financing with 50% down. As part of the USFS Recreation Residence Program, the land is federally owned and subject to certain restrictions, and short-term rentals are not permitted.
