4.5 based on 39 reviews
A popular alpine drive route, 101 miles long, running from San Bernardino to Big Bear Lake.
Reviewed By outthere2017 - Los Angeles, United States
This was a fun drive from Hwy 15 at Cajon Pass to Big Bear. Folowed 38 to 18 to 30 in Big Bear. Beautiful Fall colors and huge breathtaking views of the valleys. Lots of tight curves and turns keep you at sightseeing speed with lots of turnouts. Several lakes along the way to see and visit. Arrowhead is almost impossible to see because of the buildings in the way, but, the other lakes are beautiful. End at Big Bear lake and drive thru Fawnskin for the best views.

Train buffs will be especially drawn to this place. It is a great diversion if you are traveling between Vegas and San Diego. You have to get off the interstate and drive thru the desert with great views and the station is restored and has exhibits to see. It takes a bit longer (1 hour approx) but worth the detour.

We didn't get to do all of Route 66 like we planned to because of the pandemic, however, we did a little bit of it on our way to Utah outdoor parks. I am so glad we chose to stop at this super fun spot in San Bernardino! This was seriously like taking a step back in to my childhood. This site is now a museum, it used to be a McDonald's and it is on the site where the very first McDonald's restaurant was. The museum is made up of collections that people have donated of McDonald's memorabilia. Holy cow! I had no idea HOW much McDonald's stuff was out there. I loved seeing the old plates and cups we used to collect and all of the old playground equipment we used to play on at our indoor play place in Ohio (what a gift during the cold winters). Such wonderful place of nostalgia...this is definitely worth a stop if you are nearby. Social distancing and masking was practiced (we were the only ones in the museum so it wasn't an issue at all).
