Big Bear Lake

Big Bear Lake welcomes dogs in the water and on the 22 miles of shoreline trails to explore, all of the beaches along Highway 38 in Big Bear Lake are dog-friendly and can be reached from the Alpine Pedal Path trail.
The marinas in Big Bear allow dogs to ride along on pontoon boat and fishing boat rentals, and there are open beaches along the shoreline where you can throw a tennis ball or Frisbee into the lake and watch your buddy splash into the water as they chase after it.

Dog Park

Bark Park Big Bear Lake: 41220 Park Ave, Big Bear Lake, CA.
“Bark Park Big Bear Lake is pet-friendly. This popular recreation area is home to a number of agility items and a bench for humans to sit at while their dogs play together. Dogs can run through a tunnel, check out the metal dog silhouette, and play fetch on the grass. Dog owners are reminded to clean up any mess that their pets leave behind while hanging out in the park.”  bringfido.ca/attraction/18913
