Sky Park at Santa's Village is adorable and filled with loads of family friendly activities like rock climbing the “Frozen Falls”, archery, BB guns, peddle cars, ax throwing, and a lot more. All of these activities are included with your tickets.
The Village has several great restaurants and pubs and live entertainment daily. There is also a mountain biking park with trails for all levels from new riders and advanced riders. Everyone rides or walks to the top but don’t worry, they designed with lots of switchbacks so it’s never too steep.

Eats & Treats
Theses are our favorite places to eat in Big Bear, from easy and casual to fancy and formal.
A family friendly pizza joint with good grub. The pizza has lots of cheese (yummy!), they have a kids' menu, and great portions all-around. There is a big brick oven at the entrance and record album covers adorn the walls inside. It gets VERY packed during busy times, and they don't take reservations, so go early or be prepared to put your name in and walk around the town for a bit.

Sightseeing
Bluff Lake is a protected preserve located just 5.4 miles from Chateau Wonderland, and a must-see when you stay with us. Views along the easy-to-tread fire roads are wonderful, and we recommend stopping along the way to explore the woods, climb boulders and dip your feet in Metcalf Creek.

At a short two miles round trip this beautiful hike takes you from the highway running through Big Bear up to a massive collection of granite stones that provide a fantastic vista of one of Southern California’s best mountain towns. It is short but steep and is a great way to see Big Bear from a different point of view.
