Nice cozy getaway cabin

The cabin was cozy and perfect for me and my husband for a quick anniversary weekend. We really enjoyed the deck and the hot tub. Close enough to the Village to ride our bikes to and also to ride to the lake. Overall we really enjoyed this place and would come back again.

Wonderful cozy stay

My husband and I had a wonderful stay at Chipowood. It was everything we were hoping to experience. We always had the fireplace going, enjoyed wine in the hot tub, walked easily to the lake, walked around the beautiful neighborhood, and drove to many of the close restaurants like big bear mountain brewery! Such a cozy and romantic time. Thank you Chipowood!
