39196 Seminole Drive, Fawnskin

About 39196 Seminole Drive

There's a side of Big Bear the crowds never find. Cross the dam to the north shore and the pace changes — pines close in, the lake glitters through the trees, and you arrive in Fawnskin, the storybook village locals call the best-kept secret in the mountains. Here in the Grout Bay area, a rare piece of it is available to build on. Lot 302 is .123 of an acre, and what makes it rare is how easy it is. Flat and usable corner to corner — no grading puzzle, no slope to engineer around, no retaining walls to budget for. It's already improved with block walls and metal panels, and it opens to mountain views and that endless mountain blue sky. Bring your architect, bring your plans, and build the retreat you've been picturing on a lot that won't fight you. The seasons deliver here year-round: winter skiing at Snow Summit and Bear Mountain with a Village glowing for the holidays; spring wildflower trails and rainbow trout fishing minutes away; summer boat days, paddleboards, and fireworks over the water; fall forests turning vibrant for Oktoberfest. National forest trailheads stay open all year, and Big Bear Village is a scenic drive around the shore. The lot sits directly adjacent to 39196 Seminole Drive, a turnkey three-lot offering with a home already in place — also available. Purchase both offerings and you own over 3/4 acre on Seminole, with a mountain home to live in while you build next door. And it's closer than you think — just 2 hours from South Orange County and North San Diego, and 3 hours from LA. The north shore is still the quiet side. It won't stay a secret forever.
