Blissful lakeside cabin

We had an amazing time at this cozy cabin. Close to everything. We walked to the Village, hit the slopes and relaxed in a warm jacuzzi. My family will definitely stay at this lakeside cabin in the future.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall, we really liked our stay at this cabin. The location was great and the location near downtown put us where we wanted to be. The stairs between floors can be a bit challenging with baggage as it is a tight spiral stair. Hot tub was great.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our cabin was great! Close to town and eateries, on the lake, picturesque. It was a great weekend get away. The spiral staircase is no joke, so make sure youre ok with stairs before renting this cabin. The furniture could use a slight upgrade, there was one chair we didnt even sit in because of the printed sign next to it stating it’s difficult to put upright if reclined. Overall, we loved it!

Pictures don’t do this place justice!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the first time that we have arrived at a rental and the pictures don’t do it justice. It’s an absolute gem of a place. Clean, updated and perfect location. A literal 13 min walk into the village and the backyard has so much snow play and right on the water. My family and extended family had such a great time we didn’t even want to leave other than to pick up some items from the store. It’s peaceful and the neighbor next door had a snow fight and ran sleds with us. Book this place if you want lakefront. While using the hot tub it began to snow and it was the highlight of our trip. The house has everything you needed. If you plan to cook, you only need your ingredients and seasonings. They have everything else. Thank you for the wonderful memories.

Great Aframe!

Really loved it there. So pretty with all the snow. Had everything we needed and would love to go back. It WAS a bit pricey for the amount of beds there are/a suggestion would be to put bunks where the futon is and maybe a king or queen bed in main floor bedroom. Thank you! ❤️🎿

Beautiful Views!

The property had a rustic feel and was very cozy. The kids enjoyed the loft area. It was like a tree house with a lake view for them. They had most of what we needed to cook. we're a family that likes to cook. The only issue with cleanliness was the amount of dust on the beams. One was above the stove. They just need to dust a bit better. The check-in location as a little confusing, but its nothing you cannot figure out. We found the parking situation a bit frustrating. Its strange that there is a 2 car maximum for a place that sleeps 8. There was more than enough room for all three cars without getting in the way of snow plows or being anywhere near the road. We had to park Nana's car in a public lot and drive by to check on it every day. Not a task we wanted while on vacation. There was an outdoor light out but it was fixed while we were there which was good. My brother found the Jacuzzi a bit clouded for his taste but it smelled clean so we did get in a few times. The front office responds very quickly to any calls or concerns! They had great service! They seem to always be available for any questions. Overall, its a cozy place to stay! And the View of the lake is beautiful!

Lovely location. I could have sat and looked at the lake all day, but the town was walking distance and there was plenty to do. Everything was as described. My family had a great time. We booked hoping for snow, the weather didn’t cooperate, but no one went home disappointed. Highly recommend!

Perfect Escape!

We had a great stay here over Thanksgiving. Plenty of beds, kitchen items, bedding and towels. We were surprised the living room furniture was pretty beat up but was still comfortable. Not enough eating space, but we made it work. Downstairs was really cold some nights but tolerable with the bedding provided. View, hot tub and location were awesome! Would totally stay again 100%.

Weekend Getaway

It twas a lovely cabin. Everything was perfect. The property management company was great to work with - very responsive. My only suggestion is that the signage at the property management company be more prominent. It was a little hard to find as it is inside a spa/hot tub store. Perhaps I missed earlier instructions advising this - it really wasn't a big deal and their excellent customer service more than made up this early snafu.

A-frame charm on the lake

I came with my wife, dog, parents and siblings to relax and escape the heat and i was thoroughly impressed. the location felt secluded but was very near town. the lake is steps away and if you're not a swimmer there's a hottub with a worldclass view to relax in or stay dry on the back deck or even stay inside and soak up the scenery through the huge windows. despite the old-school charm of an a-frame everything inside was refreshingly modern without losing the comfort and beauty of a mountain cabin. was hard to leave, i can't wait to come back.

A Magical Stay

We spent 4 nights there. It was June gloom overcast in LA, but we drove above the clouds to sunny Big Bear days on the water! It was so beautiful. Loved sitting on the decks, sitting on the dock, and some dips in the hot tub with a great view. We brought our own corn hole to play on the sandy area, which was perfect. And sand toys for my 2 year old. We cooked most meals there and it had almost all the items we needed. (We brought our own good knives, spices, oils, etc.) And the location is phenomenal. Obviously it being on the lake, but also a quick drive to the Village. Any issues were small: --The floor didn't seem to have been mopped before we came, or at least could have been better cleaned. It was gritty. --A number of the light fixtures were difficult to figure out how they worked (we never figured out one of them) and we wished there was some guiding signage, a simple fix. --The bunk bed design in the main floor room is best for kids. It became a joke how often the two adults who used it kept badly banging our heads on it. And the other adults kept banging their heads on the spiral stairs on the bottom floor. We at least had fun with the total house head bump tally. --Bedding stuff wasn't our fave. If I went again I'd just bring my own pillow and duvet to sleep comfortably. But the pros of the house far outweighed anything else. We had THE BEST TIME. A magical place, truly. Would stay again in a heartbeat.
