Great little home, that was close enough to town, but not busy or loud like being right in town. My family really enjoyed it. The side yard was perfect with a little bit of snow to give the kids a play area.
It was an excellent place to relax, the location was great and the cabin was very clean. A beautiful place and it had everything it needed. I would recommend it 100%. Definitely thinking of renting again.
This cute cabin was in the perfect location for all the fun activities from - park, arcade, water park and coaster rides.
We enjoyed a quick car ride to the village to walk around and eat with the kids!
We were in the middle of all of it … only 5 minutes ride to all the fun stuff 🙌🏖️👍🐻🎢 🏞️
Was a very relaxing time. The cabin had everything that was needed to our stay. All essential cook wear and sleeping arrangements. It did tend to get warm upstairs during the day. Fans had to be on 24/7.
It was a nice cabin except there was a heat wave and the fans weren’t very good so we had to leave early cause my son with special needs was starting to get ill due to the heat in the cabin
the cabin location was great. the main factor that was upsetting was that the day of our arrival the Big bear cool cabins called me in the afternoon to notify me that the washer and dryer were not working. now normally this would not be a big deal but when you are traveling with a senior and have small children with you as well it was an issue. it was cold and we were unable to dry our towels from showering and bathing as well as using the jacuzzi. to some its not a big deal but when you are out all day and come home to eat dinner and clean up for the night and have to use a dirty wet towel it is not the bets experience. we tried hanging them around the house but they still did not dry. also, I notified the cool cabins about the microwave not working. we had come home from a long day out and were attempting to steam some veggies to go with our dinner and it just stopped working. we planned this trip so that we would have these certain amenities because we are a family and we could have easily booked a hotel and eaten out but we wanted to save money to explore big bear rather than spend more money on eating out. so when things do not work as they are supposed to and you are paying for them it is a bit frustrating. as far as the cleanliness of the cabin, if you are paying a cleaning crew that should be reevaluated as well. the downstairs bathroom had dirt and what seemed to be gravel or something behind the trash can as well as the upstairs rooms were dusty beyond all means und

Fantastic time and looks just as advertised. The only comment is; we arrived after dark There were two lockboxes on the property a bit confusing on which one to use but we figured it out. The property management was excellent replied immediately to my email sent somebody out Excellent thank you

Thinking ahead
For the future.. I will be more vigilant when ordering a cabin in the summertime and questioning if there is any Air Conditioning. U expected heat wave and only fans in the cabin.
Everything was good as the description says but there were minor inconveniences such as no screen on one main window when the only cooling was fans. The lock box location was not clearly described. Not enough electrical outlets and some main lamps had been left unplugged.
These are minor compared to the good features.
Overall tilt was a great stay and process was easy. As a feedback, outside tue upstairs bathroom there is some nails coming of the floor, seems something was nailed and came off . The nails are dangerous if you are bare foot.
On the master bedroom, there are spider webs and dust right in the top of the bed in the inside of the been in the ceiling. This might fall into someone head while sleeping.
Other than that , everything was perfect. I will stay again there or booked with you guys again.
Thanks
Jose villa
