C-4 Commercial Development Opportunity in Big Bear Lake, CA
A rare opportunity to develop a highly versatile C-4 Commercial Recreation property in Big Bear Lake. With two existing water meters, an existing building shell with garage, and substantial development potential, this property offers a head start for an investor, developer, or operator looking to create something unique in one of Southern California’s premier mountain destinations. One of the property’s features is that the rear of the property touches the Rathbun Creek Trail, creating an opportunity to design a project that takes advantage of the area’s recreation, tourism, and outdoor lifestyle. C-4 zoning can accommodate a wide variety of potential commercial and recreation-oriented concepts, subject to City approval. Possible uses may include a hotel or lodging concept, restaurant or coffee shop, retail market, convenience store, self-storage facility, contractor or service yard, automotive-related use, or other tourism & recreation-based businesses. The property’s existing marketing plans illustrate just how many directions this site could potentially take. The current seller has preliminary plans for an Adventure Van Resort. The concept has been reviewed with the City of Big Bear Lake and received preliminary planning approval, with final development subject to applicable City approvals, permitting, and requirements. The conceptual plan calls for 36 sites designed for Sprinter vans, small RVs, pop-up campers, and truck campers up to 24 feet, with electrical and water hookups. The proposed Adventure Van Resort concept goes well beyond traditional camping, envisioning a true Big Bear destination with check-in and retail space, showers and restrooms, mineral baths, a central lawn and entertainment stage, along with other guest amenities.
