Shore Acres Lodge #450

Shore Acres | Lakefront Cabins for Groups

Discover the charm of Shore Acres Lodge, a historic lakefront cabin retreat set across two pine-shaded acres along the shoreline of Big Bear Lake. Perfect for family reunions, group getaways, retreats, and gatherings, this unique cabin cluster combines six individual mountain cottages to accommodate up to 40 guests while offering direct lake access, beautiful lake views, and an exceptional location within walking distance of local marinas and The Village.

Originally known as Potters Camp in the early 1900s, Shore Acres has evolved into a memorable Big Bear destination while preserving its rustic mountain character. Lodge renovations were completed in fall 2023, bringing updated comforts to this historic property. Each cabin provides its own private accommodations and modern essentials, allowing larger groups to vacation together while still enjoying the privacy and convenience of individual cottages.

Spend your mornings taking in Big Bear Lake views from the property or head just steps from the cabins to the shoreline. A seasonal shared boat dock and fishing area make it easy to enjoy the lake, while the summertime community swimming pool provides another place to cool off on select weekends from Memorial Day through Labor Day. Back on land, challenge the group to horseshoes, volleyball, or outdoor table tennis while younger guests enjoy the swing set.

The spacious grounds offer plenty of opportunities to gather together beneath the pines. Enjoy the large outdoor BBQ and picnic area, relax on lake-view decks, or grill dinner on the provided charcoal BBQ. High-speed Wi-Fi and flat-screen streaming TVs add modern convenience throughout your stay, while ample flat year-round parking makes arriving with a large group easier.

Best of all, Shore Acres Lodge puts your group within walking distance of Big Bear Village and local marinas, creating an ideal home base for experiencing the lake, shopping, dining, entertainment, and year-round mountain recreation. Pets are also welcome with additional fees, making it easier to bring the whole family along for your Big Bear adventure.
