About 42678 Cougar Rd

Welcome to your storybook alpine retreat in Lower Moonridge, where adventure and serenity share a roof. This exceptional 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath cabin isn’t just a home—it’s a passport to Big Bear’s magic, steps from ski shuttles, pine-framed trails, the charm of the local zoo, and all that downtown Moonridge offers. Step inside to sunlight streaming through the windows, illuminating a chef’s kitchen where concrete countertops provide the perfect blend of rustic and Chic. Gather around the stone fireplace, mugs steaming, as the scent of pine mingles with laughter. Outside, your private spa beckons—melt snowflakes into steam under starry skies, or sip coffee on the porch as dawn paints the ski slopes gold. With turnkey furnishings and a laundry-ready layout, unpack your bags and start living: host raucous game nights, savor solitude with a novel, or rally friends for sunrise laps at Bear Mountain (just a 5-minute shuttle ride away). Don’t let this cabin become someone else’s dream come true. With summer nearing, the time to act is now. Claim your key today and gift yourself seasons of fireside traditions, powder-day triumphs in the winter, and views that outshine any screen. Your forever cabin isn’t just a dream—it’s here, fully furnished, and waiting.
