Please ignore these directions below ....

From any freeway, travel to the Inland Empire and San Bernardino.

Take the Interstate 10 Freeway east, headed towards Palm Springs.

Passing through San Bernardino on Interstate 10, turn left (north) and take Highway 30 North toward the mountains. The sign will say "Big Bear" and "Running Springs".

In about 5 miles, you'll see a Highway 330 Mountain Resorts turnoff, take it (and shortly afterwards you will see a Walmart on your left).

You will stay on Highway 330 for about 12 miles or so and will pass through 3 passing lanes, count them to make it easier. One is at the City Creek Ranger Station, one is 1/2 way up and the last one is where you will make an exit.

Shortly after the beginning of the 3rd passing lane, you will see a run-down castle.

Quickly, there will be the right hand turn onto Fredalba and the SIGN for St. Anne.

In 1.2 miles, you'll see St. Anne on the right. WELCOME, you've arrived!
