The space
Welcome to Queen Bee Lakefront, a regal lakefront townhome nestled in the heart of the Village of Big Bear Lake, offering you the quintessential Big Bear Lake experience. Immerse yourself in the allure of this picturesque vacation rental, strategically located to provide both the tranquility of the lake and mountains views with the convenience of walking to the village and a 2 minute drive to the public parking/shuttle that takes you straight to Snow Summit!

As the last hive at the end of a lakefront row of townhomes, Queen Bee Lakefront Retreat stands as a serene retreat, shielded from the buzz of neighboring activities. Here, you can revel in royal tranquility and bask in the abundance of natural light that fills the space and highlighting the spectacular views of Big Bear Lake and the mountain scape beyond!

Part of the Forest Shores Lakefront Village, Queen Bee Lakefront Retreat not only offers you a secluded haven but also grants you access to a community pool and hot tub, perfect for relaxing after a day on the slopes or trails. During the summer months, take advantage of the community dock, allowing you to dip your toes into the refreshing waters of Big Bear Lake or park your boat! Don't have a boat but want to get out on the water? There are two marinas offering all the fun water toy rentals and scenic lake boat rides within a short 5 minute walk in either direction of the Queen Bee, allowing you to truly relax in the mountain/lake vibe.

The three-bedroom, three-bathroom townhome features the unique Honey Bear Studio, nestled on the ground floor and attached to the house through the garage. This allows the studio to be lakefront as well with a walkout patio! This is your personal den of tranquility, perfect for teens, grandparents, a third couple, small family or those that need a private/quiet work space or simply for those guests seeking a getaway den from the hub of the hive!

Now, enter the Queen Bee and up the stairs on the main level you'll find the light, bright great room featuring the living space, dining space and kitchen (as well as a full bathroom) all focused on the incredible view of the lake and mountains outside. The kitchen, aptly named the Royal Beehive, is a culinary haven buzzing with all the essentials needed to whip up meals that will have your taste buds dancing like bees in a flower-filled field. Trust me, this kitchen has every tool and appliance you will need all beautifully labeled and organized so you can just cook rather than rummage and search!

On the upper level of the Queen Bee you will find 2 more bedrooms and an ensuite bathroom. The master bedroom has a spectacular view of the lake and an additional deck from which to sit and enjoy it! With luxury linens and a spot on view of the lake from bed, you'll want to wake up, throw open the blinds and hop back in bed to savor the view! The 2nd bedroom is equally warm and cozy and delightfully decorated with beautiful linens, comfy chair and a work desk.

From the master bedroom, the main floor or the Honey Bear Studio you can awake to enjoy breathtaking views while sipping your morning honey-infused coffee on the deck, or savoring the delights of the day while sipping your wine taking in the peaceful serenity as the sun sets on Big Bear Lake. Off the main floor deck you will find a fire pit to enable you to enjoy the starry night skies! The thoughtful design of Queen Bee Lakefront allows you to seamlessly transition between the cozy den interior to the captivating outdoor surroundings. Come see for yourself!

With its ideal location at the end of the townhomes, the well-stocked Royal Beehive kitchen, proximity to the village, community amenities, and the delightful Honey Bear Studio, Queen Bee Lakefront invites you to create cherished moments with loved ones. Book your stay now and experience the perfect blend of royal comfort and convenience. Your Big Bear Lake adventure begins at Queen Bee Lakefront, where every detail is as sweet as honey, and tranquility reigns supreme!
