About Whit's End at the Cove
The Cabin
Located just steps from the lake and a short walking distance to the famous Castle Rock hiking trail, our 3 bedroom, 2.5 bathroom cabin comfortably sleeps 8 people. An absolute gem, offering unreal views as well as amazing craftsmanship and creative accents throughout, including multiple stained glass windows, cedar hardwood floors, natural rock fireplace with solid wood and log mantel, rustic-elegance decor ... this is a true artist's retreat with all the modern comforts. You will not want to leave once you walk in the door and see what can only be described as "infinity" lake water views! The primary bedroom has a King size bed and its own bathroom with 2 sinks and a steam shower with 2 shower heads, as well as an adjoining deck with a hot tub. The second bedroom has a Queen size bed, and the third bedroom has 2 bunk beds. These 2 bedrooms share a bathroom adjacent to the bedrooms.
The Arcade
This 560 square foot Arcade has everything! You will be hard-pressed to find a better home arcade in the Big Bear area. We carefully designed and curated the space to look and feel like a real arcade, from the fun game-themed art on the walls to the classic "pops" of neon lights, to the gorgeous hanging parlor lamp in the center of the room to all the games themselves: the entire area is pure eye candy! In addition to standards like a Pool Table and Foosball, there is also a real Skee-Ball; a full size Air Hockey; a Star Wars digital Pinball; a full size Ms Pacman that has several other games included; a sit down 2 player Marvel Avengers game; a digital Dart board that has several different games and keeps score; and a mini Juke Box that syncs to Bluetooth so you can play your favorites. The Arcade is separate from the main house, but is heated for year round enjoyment.
Hot Tub
There is nothing like soaking in a hot tub while enjoying the incredible views of the lake. The hot tub is on a balcony deck outside the primary bedroom that is covered so there are never any issues of snow covering the lid or access to the hot tub. Also, unlike most other lakefront properties, our hot tub area is relatively secluded, providing a much more serene and private experience for users.
The Dock
The dock is one of the most amazing places to spend time during your getaway. With an attached floating platform, there is plenty of room to do some fishing, relaxing, or simply laying out in the sun. The dock is also a great place to store your boat, Wave Runners, Kayaks, etc. If you own kayaks, we highly recommend bringing them since it's the perfect opportunity to go an an adventure to Treasure Island/ China Island (our personal favorite destination), Bear Valley Dam, Boulder Bay Park, Fischer Cove, Fawnskin, or simply kayak over to the other side of the Bay and back. If you don't own kayaks, they are available to rent next to Boulder Bay Park.
Primary Bedroom
The Primary bedroom, dubbed the "Monet Room," was designed to look and feel like a honeymoon suite! It is very spacious, with a King size bed, 2 dressers, plenty of closet space, and beautiful views of the lake.
Primary Bathroom
The Primary Bedroom has a Primary Bathroom that has 2 sinks, and a Steam Shower that has 2 shower heads.
Bedroom 2
Most people say Bedroom 2, the "Van Gogh Room," has the best views. The Queen size bed is handcrafted, with a matching night stand, a ceiling fan, and a closet with a dresser and hangers, etc.
Bedroom 3
Bedroom 3, the "Nook," is very cozy with 2 bunk beds, 2 dressers, and a closet with hangers, etc. On cloudy nights, kids and adults will love plugging in the Rosetta star and galaxy projector that fills the walls and ceiling with the wonders of the cosmos! We also made sure to provide several bedtime stories for little ones, as well as some beloved classics for kids of all ages.
Bathroom for Bedroom 2 and 3
Bedrooms 2 and 3 share a bathroom adjacent to the 2 bedrooms. There are 2 sinks, plenty of cabinet space, as well as a separate shower/bathtub.
Living Room/Gas Fireplace
The living room is cozy with a sofa, chairs, coffee table, and a gas fireplace. There is also a TV with Roku that has some free channels as well as the ability to sign in to your paid subscriptions from home. There is even a dial-tune radio that picks up several local stations so you can hear what the locals are listening to!
Living Room/TV
The TV area of the living room is also stocked with several board games (including the classics like Clue, Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble, Battleship, Jenga and Yahtzee), as well as playing cards and puzzles, making this a fun area for kids and adults of all ages. There are several avid readers in our own family, so we made sure to provide an assortment of books for adults, teens, and young readers.
