Premier Outdoor Hospitality Retreat - Opportunity to Develop
Conveniently located just three miles north of Big Bear Lake—Southern California’s beloved mountain escape—this property is easily accessible to more than 23 million residents within a few hours’ drive. Nestled within the breathtaking Holcomb Valley and surrounded by thousands of acres of pristine National Forest, this fully-entitled 100-acre property offers a rare opportunity for an exclusive outdoor hospitality development.
Boasting existing infrastructure, utilities, and approvals for cabins, luxury tents, and resort-style amenities, this parcel is primed for transformation into a world-class wellness retreat, adventure lodge, or boutique hospitality destination. The site features 30 existing structures, including a commercial kitchen, dining pavilion, swimming pool, staff residences, and extensive utility infrastructure, significantly reducing development costs and timelines. A high-capacity water well, natural gas service, high-voltage underground power, and 19 septic systems ensure seamless operations.
Steeped in history, the land was once a thriving gold mining settlement before evolving into a working cattle ranch and later a Boy Scouts camp for over 50 years. Today, the property retains its storied charm, with expansive meadows, historic structures, and iconic grazing horses enhancing its unique character.
This exceptional offering presents tremedous potential. With Big Bear drawing over 7 million visitors annually, the demand for high-end outdoor experiences continues to grow.
For developers and operators seeking a one-of-a-kind investment in Southern California’s premier mountain destination, this property delivers the perfect blend of natural beauty, existing infrastructure, and entitlements—ready for visionary execution.
Offered exclusively to qualified developers/operators.
