This cabin has direct access to ATV trails as of May 1, 2010. This is subject to change by the U.S. Forest Service. We cannot guarantee access in the future. Big Bear Lodge is a spectacular and luxurious chalet located in a secluded private wooded setting. This Ouachita Mountain vacation home backs up to hundreds of acres of undeveloped forest land, set away from the highway, truck noise, and the hassles of everyday life. Numerous deer, turkey, and other wildlife frequently wonder out of the forest and through the property. From the moment you drive up you can tell Big Bear is top notch. The design of the cabin could easily fit right into any Home and Garden TV episode. Throughout the cabin, locally harvested timber and beams are just a few of the special touches used to make this home a one of a kind. The natural elements and comfortable furnishings put you right at home for that long deserved vacation with family and friends or a special occasion for just the two of you.
