Swiss Mansion - Snow Summit Private Entrance

About this space

Welcome to the Swiss Mansion in Big Bear Lake, CA! Formerly Switzerland Haus Bed and Breakfast Inn, this historic retreat has plenty of space for you and your loved ones during any season! Most notable in winter is the backyard with a private entrance that leads directly to the ski resort, but with 6 bedrooms with several private balconies and bathrooms, and a large outdoor area, this makes for a spectacular private lodge for large groups anytime!

The space

Enter the standout property from the front where you have ample parking or make your way in through the private backyard entrance directly across from Snow Summit Ski Resort. The backdoor leads you into a mudroom, complete with bench for removing all your gear! The front door leads into an entry way with a peaceful study on one side, former Inn keepers’ quarters on the other, and stairs and kitchen just before the living room and dining area.

The cozy kitchen is complete with updated appliances and an opening into the living room to keep the snacks and drinks flowing while the whole crew hangs out.

The living room has a large sofa, love seat, and lounge chairs around a wood-burning fireplace and smart TV. Perfect for entertainment, the dining area is just off the living room with a huge 10-person dining table and plenty of natural light from the backyard.

The first floor also includes a full laundry room with washer, dryer, and sink.

Private access to the 2nd floor grand suite is just off the mudroom. Enter an over 700 sq ft private room complete with oversized windows for spectacular mountain views (watch the skiers in wintertime!), personal fireplace, huge bathroom with dual sinks, soaking tub and separate walk-in shower, and private balcony.
