The Big Bear Solar Observatory proves to be as mighty and impressive as its name. This facility was originally built back in 1965 by the California Institute of Technology and is now maintained by the New Jersey Institute of Technology. It has the distinction of being one of only six solar observatories in the world, plus the added attraction of being located on an island in the center of a lake in the San Bernardino Mountains. The location proves to be ideal for looking heavenward as there is minimal pollution, the skies are typically clear, and the airflow is smooth, making for great views that are nothing less than stunning.

Step “back in the day” to a time when having a cocktail was an experience to be savored. The Marquis Cocktail Lounge still remembers that era, and keeps the tradition of class and distinction very much alive in this charmingly laid-back nightlife venue. There's always relaxing, jazzy music playing and the people here are friendly but smart enough to give you your own space if you would rather just ease back and take it all in. This is a great place for a first date or meeting with a few friends for drinks and conversation.
