Live pictures from today! Welp, it's February 6th and it looks like winter has officially started 😂 No worries though, better late than never. And this storm isn't over yet! We're still projected to get another 2 to 3 ft even after this!

We're looking forward to sledding & snowboarding in the soft powder, games around the fireplace, warm spa in the snow, hot chocolate, cozy blankets The snowfall through the windows!

It's absolutely beautiful ❄️😊🦊

In the back trails of the Happy Fox Retreat, there's a tree swing hidden in the forest!

We recommend grabbing your best hiking boots and going all Indiana Jones to find it.

However, If you ask us for the location.....
you got to say...."wheeeee"

"Give me a swing and all maturity goes out the window"

If tables could tell stories....

Great times start here... Sharing meals with loved ones, telling a funny joke over dessert, or laughing while playing games and enjoying snacks. Memories in the making!

We love when the sun shines through these windows!☀️🌞🌲🌲 But in case you don't want to be woken up by sunshine.....

At the Retreat you'll find room darkening curtains so you can sneak in a nap or wakeup when you want.

"The water is always deeper than what it reflects." -Marty Rubin

Bluff Lake is one of our favorite stops when we visit Big Bear! It's just a 25 min drive from the Retreat. You'll need a 4x4 to get there. You can hike around the lake, explore the meadow, check out an old cabin too. You might spot some wildlife on your hike too!

Summer nights.

"Overhead hung a summer sky furrowed with the rush of rockets; and from the east a late moon, pushing up beyond the lofty bend of the coast, sent across the bay a shaft of brightness which paled to ashes in the red glitter of the illuminated boats."
-Edith Wharton

Summer is now in full bloom at the Happy Fox Retreat! We planted these flowers only a few weeks back and with a little water and sun they've been blooming like crazy! The colors are absolutely beautiful.

While we get ready for a busy summer, it's interesting to note - most places in SoCal this week expect hot temps in the '90s, but Big Bear is predicted to have a cool 75° even in the hottest part of the day. Why you may ask? Due to the higher elevation, the air is thinner - and so weather in the mountains is always about 15-20° cooler.

So, if it gets too hot down the hill, we always recommend a ride up to the mountains!

"What good is the warmth of summer, without the cold of winter to give it sweetness."

- John Steinbeck

Take a peak at our planning...

Do you enjoy the planning or when it's finished?

It took some time to configure the kitchen that the Retreat has now. These are some of the first computer mockups.

Planning a full kitchen remodel seemed daunting... but thankfully there are free planning tools online to help!

Measuring the space was the first step. Then accounting for all doors and windows and pinking a color scheme

We decided to use pine cabinets to keep the cabin feel and white subway tile to add a touch of modern.
