We enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cabin. We felt like we were right at home. Our kids enjoyed it as well because of the kids room that was very spacious. We would definitely stay here again.
Cozy, clean, great ski slope views, awesome floorplan, each floor has its own bedroom and bathroom with a deck. Wonderful neighborhood with a trailhead a few feet away. It’s surrounded by trees, really tranquil setting. We had a blast.

Quiet Big Bear property in the tree tops. Perfectly comfortable home with great wrap around outdoor deck and plenty of snowy top/peaks views. Three-story with a bedroom on each floor made it easy to decide who would sleep where depending on ease with stairs. Easily accessible to "downtown" Big Bear and the ski resorts by car (about 15 min average) but far enough away to enjoy the serenity and quiet of this community just north of Big Bear. Although we had intended to bring two dogs to this pet-friendly property (decided against bringing the dogs at the last minute) we feel they would have also been comfortable in these surroundings (but be aware there are no fenced-in areas). Highly recommend and we hope to return ourselves someday!
This cabin is beautiful! It is very spacious, clean, well kept up, cutely decorated, well stocked with cooking dishes, pots, utensils, etc. The cabin sits on a very quiet street and the views are serene and picturesque. It is located 12 minutes from the village. Close enough to the hub-bub and far enough away from the crowds. A perfect cabin rental for a gorgeous Big Bear get away vacation. I highly recommend this cabin rental.
An amazing lay out of a cabin. 3 stories every level has a bath and shower. Game room with fireplace. Make it fun for night activities. Very open floor plan so your guests don’t feel on top of each other.. can’t wait to go back and stay again.
This home is super nice and had 3 floors to accommodate all our needs. The beds were very comfortable and much appreciated as we all slept great. The kitchen was well stocked except for a cheese grater. The neighborhood was very quiet and low traffic. There was also a nice trail at the end of the road. The living room and couch was super comfortable and had plenty of room for all of us to sit. We would love to stay here again.
We had a long weekend and a great time at this property! Destination Big Bear was wonderful to work with and we had a wonderful time. The view off the deck is amazing!
Clean, spacious and super quiet and relaxing! Hiking trailhead access & end of street was a nice bonus. Nice modern baths & kitchen. Killer view from master bedroom.
Every thing was good , so quiet and beautiful balcony.
Just some stuff good to add in future
1: hair dryer
2: more kitchen supplies: serving dishes, aluminum foil
But other than that everything else was good
My family and I had a great time at this cabin. It was very clean and spacious for a family of 5 and our dog. Super close to the lake and downtown. The decks have amazing views and the little neighborhood is so quiet and peaceful. There is also a trail for hiking at the end of the street that we really enjoyed. My kids loved the game room as well, and played pool for hours. We will definitely be back and stay here again soon!
Great location in a tranquil, peaceful area on a dead end street. Great views from the very large lower deck & the smaller upper balcony outside the master bedroom. Very clean, spacious & comfortable!!! Nice hiking trail at the end of the street. A little cold at night but setting the thermostat to the desired room temperature, warmed up the place up rather quickly.. I would highly recommend a stay here.
My wife and I took my daughter and 4 friends for her 16th birthday. She wanted a house that could accommodate she and her froends in one room and this fit the bill. The basement bedroom has a queen and double bunkbed with an additional queen trundle bed as well as a fold out couch. House was clean, well appointed and very well kept up with plenty of space. The basement location was great since we didn't hear them talking all night. Nice view from the porch. The kitchen was well equiped for cooking although it doesn't have any spices or cooking oil/spray so make sure to bring with you- there are several grocery stores nearby.
The in person check in at destination Big Bear was needlessly complicated I thought and added an extra 15 minutes to the process and could have been done online but having said that the people at the office were helpful, very friendly and pleasant.
The home was lovely and very clean...great location. The Christmas decorations were still up, which was kind of odd.
The beds were VERY comfortable. The house was not stocked, but I believe that was due to Covid regulations, however a couple of boxes of tissues would have been appreciated. Also be sure to check immediately if there’s enough propane. We didn’t discover this until our last night and it wasn’t worth texting about, as we were checking out the next day.
A few other tips...
Also be sure to look at settings on the thermostat, the heat is programmed to shut off in the middle of the night and after a couple of chilly nights we realized this and figured it out.
The television was a bit confusing, as we could not figure out what we actually had access to viewing. It was random. We contacted the management (in person) and she couldn’t figure it out either. It was fine, but including that information would be helpful!
Hooks for coats in the front hall would be our only suggestion, but we would certainly come back...we had a wonderful time, great house!
I brought my folks here for my mother's birthday, along with the family dog (so 3 adults total and a pup). We found the condo to be very comfortable and perfect for our small group! We had a few issues with the internet connection going out, but the property management was quick to send out someone to assist. A few helpful tips for future travelers:
- If you want to let your dog roam free on the balcony, bring a baby gate or similar to block off one side (as there is no gate on the balcony that would stop pets from wandering)
- The pads for deck chairs are in the entryway closet
- Bring wine glasses if you plan to drink wine. They only had 3 mismatched glasses.
- There is both a Kuerig and regular coffee machine in the kitchen
- The kitchen is a bit sparse....no salt and pepper, no baking pans, etc. If you plan to cook, bring what you need with you.
- There is a gun range / outdoor sporting club within .5 miles of the property and we heard gun shots all day Saturday. Not an issue for us, but if you have a family member with PTSD or dogs who are particularly sensitive, this may be problematic
All in all we had an amazing stay and would definitely return!
Cabin was very nice and comfortable located in a quiet neighborhood. Stayed with family and had a nice relaxing weekend. Enjoyed the views from the back deck. Cabin has all the amenities you need. Loved the pool table room and bbq grill!
Would definitely stay again!!
This property was located in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. It was close to a trailhead and we loved the deck area. Overall a great home! A few things that would have helped: The outdoor fire pit did not have propane, no hand soap in one of the bathrooms, no extra toilet paper or paper towels, and a few light bulbs were broken. But all in all would recommend this cabin!
