November is Big Bear’s secret season — before the winter crowds arrive, the village is quieter, trails are peaceful, and the first flurries of snow often begin to fall. It’s the ideal time to soak in mountain serenity and enjoy the outdoors without the rush.
Here’s why guests love November stays:
Three local favorites happening while you’re in town, all within easy reach of your cabin.
Thu · Nov 26
Lace up before the feast. Locals and visitors gather on Thanksgiving morning for a laid-back run or walk, and plenty of people show up in turkey gear. Pick the distance that suits your group and be back at the cabin in time to start cooking.
Fri · Nov 27
The day after Thanksgiving, The Village switches on its giant Christmas tree and the holiday season officially begins in town. Bundle up, find a spot in the crowd, and watch the lights come on, with Santa and Mrs. Claus on hand to say hello.
Nov 13 – Jan 3
Every evening from mid-November into early January, the Big Bear Alpine Zoo becomes a holiday light walk. Stroll past a 100-foot pine wrapped in color, warm up by the fire pits with s’mores, and browse a winter market of local makers.
