Murry’s

This is the best lil karaoke bar in town! It’s located right in town behind Chad’s Place… Murray’s is best known for the bras on the wall and karaoke singing any night of the week. Actually it was the first hospital in Big Bear, can you believe that, I know a man that was born there… So if you’re thinking of enjoying your new years with some locals head on down to Murray’s.

Happy New Year…;)

What are you asking Santa for Christmas?

Santa came to Gold Rush today!!! I was so surprised to see him, he startled me! As soon as I got to sit on his lap I started to think about what I want for Christmas… Hmmm… The only thing I could think of was a pony. I asked him and he said we will see, with a chuckle and a smile! I hope I hope…;)

What are you asking for this Christmas? Happy Holidays hope it’s a great one J

There are so many reasons to come to Big Bear for your next vacation or even for that overnight get away.

If you’re looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city, we have the best outdoor activities and plenty of sunshine to do it in!

With over 300 days of sunshine all year, there’s not a season you will be disappointed in coming. With the most scenic views around, just the drive up to Big Bear is exciting!

Climbing over 6500 feet above sea level Big Bear sits atop the beautiful San Bernardino Mountains at 6,743 feet in elevation.

Once up here you’ll have to take a drive around the lake with its 22 miles of shoreline, 7 miles in length and an average ½ mile across.

The average depth of the water is about 35 feet in the middle, and the max is 74 feet at the dam. With the heat from the city you might want to come up to cool off, our temperatures averagely fall around 80 degrees during the daytime in summer; cooling off at night with an average of 45.

Like I mentioned before we have an array of outdoor activities for the whole family, no matter the age, there is some fun to be had in the area.

We have boat rentals: anything from a speed or pontoon boats all the way down to kayaks and canoes. If you don’t want to drive that boat yourself, you can always hop on one of the many rides or tours we have to offer.

What’s that you say, you want to soar above the lake?! You can do that too! Take a parasailing ride and you can fly high above the lake, with the most breathtaking views possible.

You may be looking for a little adventure and if you are there are many ways to explore our forest! You could start by taking a horseback ride, or forget the horse and just take a relaxing hike.

You could take a ride on the scenic Summit Sky Chair to the top of the ski resort where, in the summer, you are able to hike around, down or atop the mountain. Either way you can find a trail that’s right for you.

Maybe you don’t want to hike in the forest, but drive instead. We have Off Road Adventures to take you on a guided tour around to some of the coolest spots. With lots of history, interesting facts and stunning views you’ll be amazed.

You don’t have to take the guided tour; you might choose to do the “Self Guided Tour” through the Holcomb Valley. Just stop off at the Discovery Center for a brochure guide. With the locations mapped out for you and the total mileage between each spot there’s no way to get lost and you’re bound to have some sort of fun!

While you’re there at the Discovery Center shop around for some kick knacks and mementos, and if you happened to get hungry you could stop by the little café they have inside too! They have a wealth of information about the plant and wildlife found indigenous to this area. You don’t want to forget any parking passes, permits or maps while there, they have it all. From the hiking and biking trail maps, to camping information this is the spot to get it.

For the cheapest lodging deals and specials on the mountain you can visit US, Gold Rush Resort Rentals. At 40016 Big Bear Blvd.

Or check us out online at www.bigbearcabins.bz.

Enjoy and we hope to see you soon!

The WeinerMobile.

editor — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 16:03:45 +0000

Yep! I was on my way to work today and I saw the WeinerMobile…Little Oscar was no where to be found! When you live in Big Bear you get used to cowboys, miners, boaters, fisherpeople, race car drivers, bikers, “bikers”, hikers, well, you name it, we see it!

But honestly, I have not seen the WeinerMobile in Big Bear for years. I did see the Bloodmobile a few days back, but it is not as impressive as that large orange hotdog!

If you don’t believe me, head on up to Big Bear and see what is happening! Gold Rush Resort Rentals has a cabin for everyone! Even Little Oscar!

Hope to see you soon!

The Burros are back in Big Bear!

editor — Sun, 16 Aug 2009 19:31:00 +0000

This is a good thing and a bad thing. In 1997 the BLM and Forest Service took a Burro Census and decided it was time to remove the Burros from the immediate area. That done, Burros stopped eating our wood around the house, knocking over our trash, and braying all day and night! I miss them…

So, as of right now, you can come up and see the burros kicking around the neighborhoods! But get here quickly, as some government agency will remove them…I promise. It seems you can’t control people so the burros suffer.

If you need to rent a place so you can see the burros, give us a call.
