RARE OPPORTUNITY! Tucked away in the highly sought after Minnelusa Canyon in Fawnskin, this one of a kind government land lease cabin offers a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Big Bear history. Local legend has it that the oldest portion of the cabin began as a bunkhouse for the original Stanfield Ranch. In the 1920s, it evolved into the clubhouse for the San Bernardino County Rod and Gun Club. During Prohibition, the property became a well known watering hole, attracting Hollywood visitors looking for a private escape in the mountains. Stories from longtime canyon residents recall evenings spent here listening to Jimmy Durante play the piano. Yes, the same piano that still sits inside the cabin today and will transfer with the sale, along with a collection of mounted wildlife that has been passed down through generations of ownership. Positioned to take full advantage of its setting, the cabin offers awesome lake views and ski slope views, along with the convenience of being within walking distance to Big Bear Lake. Surrounded by towering pines and backing to the national forest, the location delivers both privacy and that true Big Bear mountain feel. At approximately 1,800 square feet, this cabin is also larger than what is currently allowed for government land lease properties today. With today’s maximum size typically limited to around 1,600 square feet, this property is grandfathered into its existing footprint, making it an increasingly rare opportunity. This is more than just a cabin, it is a legacy property with a story, views, and characteristics you simply cannot recreate in today’s market. Information is deemed accurate but not 100% guaranteed.
