     Why not camp at Warner Valley Campground since you're here at Big Bear Lake; as expected, this is a great area for people who like lakes, Little Bear Lake is a lake in the neighborhood. Life's too short to enjoy all the exciting stuff in the Southern Cascade Range. Badger Flat is a good site here at Big Bear Lake, and a splendid close by hotel is Bailey Creek Cottages. If the weather is glorious here at Big Bear Lake, you can go for a hike along the Growler  
   Trail, and dropping by Lassen Volcanic National Park is just something you need to do if you haven't yet.
This lake is so wonderful. Best Western Rose Quartz Inn is a splendid spot to get some rest, and you can have a tremendous hiking adventure along the Hanna Trail. This lake is so wonderful. The Southern Cascade Range scenery is always beautiful.
All year is a perfect time in the Southern Cascade Range if you have a thing about the outdoors. Lakes
 
               are fine; Cluster Lakes is a lake that's next to Big Bear Lake, and going for a hike along the Childs Meadows Trail will let you absorb the natural beauty of this area. Big Bear Lake gets a typical amount of annual rainfall; the wettest month of the year is generally January, that's the one that snows the most; July meanwhile is the driest month. Summertime highs at Big Bear Lake ordinarily tend to be in the 80's. Once the sun is down it descends down to the 40's. For the duration of the winter highs are in the 40's, and night lows in the 10's for Big Bear Lake.
And that's not all you can do here at Big Bear Lake. If you came for an overnight stay Kings Creek Campground is a delightful place to camp; you can catch a sight of Hat Mountain from Big Bear Lake.

I ALSO HAVE GONE CAMPING AT HOLE IN THE GROUND SINCE I WAS A LITTLE GIRL I WOULDNT HAVE IT ANY OTHER WAY I LOVE IT THERE AND NOW SO DO MY KIDS....
I've been going to hole in the ground, off and on for 40 years. From when I was a kid hiking in the forest, tubing down the creek, swimming in the pools, and fishing for planted trout that the hatchery would toss in the creek. Now it is a restricted salmon run, there is no planters and restrictions on the type of tackle you can use. The fishing was great as a kid. I like how peaceful it is, with the sound of creek and an occasional bluejay chirping. I enjoy cooking on the wood stoves. There are only a hand full left, (what a shame). I will be meeting one of my brothers and dad at the hole in three weeks. My large family with foster children love going to the hole. Some have been before and some will experience it for the first time. **lot of good memories**...

Heart Lake Twin Meadows Trail

Twin Meadows was originally named White Meadows and our old family cabin is the one between the meadows. They ran cattle with T.A.Spencer the first pres. of the Tehama Co. Cattleman's Assoc. The forming of the first association was in response to the loss of grazing rights when the park was formed. The shortage of beef during WW1 prompted Woodrow Wilson to state that if necessary they would raise sheep on the lawn of the White House. ...

Potato Patch Campground
19 miles away
We camp at Potato Patch campground annually with several other families. It is a very nice campground on a beautiful river. There is not a lot to do nearby though and it is a primitive campground with pit toilets and no showers. There are no hookups for RVs, but we tent camp anyway. We mostly play by the river (very cold water). Our attraction is the beauty and the people we camp with. We used to fish, but it is all catch and release. I can definitely recommend it but you have to be looking for a relaxing and beautiful setting and mostly doing not much of anything.
