One of the best spots in So Cal to enjoy some snowboarding and downhill skiing. Forgot some gear? They have plenty of rentals or you can buy some at the local shops.
As the smaller of the two resorts, and the more family-friendly one, Snow Summit typically has more people going up and down its slopes, and it typically has better conditions. Summit even has night skiing/boarding.

Boasts American cuisine with California flavor. The outdoor patio is definitely a fun place to hang out on a Saturday. During the summer they have live music and a solid appetizer menu. The dining room offers a more "upscale" experience and there's a cool bar on the top floor that's casual (That's where you'll find us). We're fans of the the pasta and steak. Insider tip: Make a reservation for dinner. The wait can get really long during peak season and weekends nights. Also, the patio is dog friendly.

Lunch or dinner at the Bone Yard Bar and Grill is always a pleasure. Grab one of the outdoor seats and start the meal off with the Irish Nachos. For the main course move on to one of the flat bread pizzas or get involved with the Tri-Tip sandwich. The portions are enough to keep you going on the trails for a while. Pro Tip: Grab an indoor seat if you're looking to take in a game. The T.V.'s are wall to wall.

In the summer this is one of the best patio's in town. At night you'll find the fire pits blazing and during the day there's often some live music.

One of the more upscale spots in Big Bear with a solid patio and lake views. During the busy season be sure to jump in with a reservation as you'll find yourself waiting a while if you walk in. The salmon is a favorite of many for a dinner entree and the veggie pasta hits home if you're avoiding meat. If you have room the creme brule is a winner to finish off the night. The Pines Lakefront has a wide selection of wines to accompany you on your culinary journey. Sit back, sip, and enjoy.

Hacienda is one of the best Mexican spots in town. Show up before your really hungry and grab a seat at the bar to enjoy one of their many appetizers. The nachos are solid and the quesadillas might be enough for a full meal. When it’s time to get serious and order your entree, go for the three cheese enchilada plate with rice and beans. You’ll definitely have leftovers. The beer selection is always solid with a variety of beers on tap but know that there are limited wine options. The margaritas are worthy of a taste. Portions are large and after all that we’ve never had room for dessert. Pro Tip: Once you get your basket of tortilla chips head over to the salsa bar and try them all.
