Prototype — design review build · notes for Matt
Big Bear Lake · California

Your funktastic escape to a playful yesterday.

A 1970s summer-camp lodge reborn. Retreat to where retro warmth meets alpine air — and the destination is the journey.

Our Story

Vintage soul,
modern pioneer heart.

Tucked among soaring pines just a stroll from the lake, The Burgundy is your laid-back basecamp for winter powder runs, summer swims, and camp-fire stories shared with new friends.

Inspired by the carefree spirit of 70s summer camps, the grounds invite you to linger by crackling fire pits or the poolside lounge — while indoors, mid-century warmth wraps you in dark wood, brass accents, and corduroy textures. Every beam, every brass fixture, and every record spinning at dusk honors a promise of exploration, intimacy, and fun.

Rest your head

Sixteen ways to settle in.

Studios, cabins, lofts, spa suites, and 1-2 bedroom kitchens — ten of them named-cabin character studies. Every space art-forward, pet-friendly, and quietly modern under all the vintage charm.

The bar at The Burgundy — green tufted leather base with a brass-topped counter and amber swag pendants
New for 2026

A bar with the soul of a record sleeve.

We tore out the old kitchenette and built something that lingers. A live-edge slab counter, brass fixtures, and velvet stools in caramel and forest green — set against burnt-orange tile and a custom amber pendant that turns dusk into showtime.

Stop in for a craft pour, an old-fashioned with house bitters, or just a glass of something cold under the amber light.
