Additionally, the lake placed third for best lake for watersports, beating out other well-known destinations such as Lake Havasu in Arizona and Lake Michigan.
“This is a very proud moment for the community of Big Bear Lake,” Travis Scott, Visit Big Bear CEO, said in a news release. “We have a deep appreciation for our lake, which is a rare treasure indeed.”
