Welcome to The Capricorn Cabin—an iconic piece of Big Bear history! Built in 1961, this authentic mid-century modern A-frame beautifully blends retro architectural charm with cozy Scandinavian hygge comfort. The interior is thoughtfully styled with handpicked vintage decor, soaring vaulted ceilings, and a sleek gel-fuel fireplace that sets the perfect mood for mountain evenings. Whether you are planning a romantic couple's escape, a small family trip, or a peaceful solo creative retreat, this cabin provides a warm, intentional space to slow down.
The intelligent layout maximizes every inch of this classic structure:
- The Upper Loft: A dedicated sleeping sanctuary featuring a plush King-size memory foam mattress dressed in premium 100% cotton linens.
- The Main Level: A bright, open space hosting a fully equipped kitchen with a traditional gas stove, a clean bathroom with a tankless water heater for unlimited hot water, and a flexible secondary sleeping nook with two adjustable Twin beds. [1]

Important Stay Details
- Cabin Layout: To preserve the original 1961 architecture, the stairs leading to the upper King loft are characteristically steep and narrow. They are not traditional steps and require a bit of careful maneuvering.
- Mountain Elements: Like many remote mountain communities, Big Bear occasionally experiences temporary power outages. We monitor local utilities closely and will proactively provide you with warnings and updates should any arise during your stay.
