Hot Water

We checked in Fri afternoon after a day of skiing only to be greeted with a cold shower. The hot water ran out in 5 minutes! The shower turned ice cold for the person who got in first and the rest of the party couldn’t even clean up for going out to dinner that night. Contacted the owner who said they could not do anything about it. Didn’t even send a plumber to come check it the next day or the next. Horrible experience when staying in in snow covered mountains with no hot water. Owner wasn’t even apologetic or empathized with our concern.

New Years Ski Trip

This property was fantastic. We had two families of four and it worked perfect. My wife and I slept on the bottom floor, my friend and his wife on the middle floor and the four kids on the top floor in a space that was great for them. I can't say enough about how close and convenient the home was for access to Big Bear Mountain. It literally took 4 minutes to walk and be on a lift. This was a great benefit considering how busy the parking lot got and how far the shuttles would have been if we chose elsewhere. Even being so close it was extremely quiet and was not bothered by traffic at all. We got great snow while we were there and the kids were able to do some sledding in the front yard. The property is aging but it appears the owners are actively working on upgrades. It had everything we needed and allowed us to really enjoy our ski trip and New Years. Definitely look to return.

Comfortable low-cost cabin

Pros: Property manger was wonderful- very communicative & helpful. Location! You can walk to Bear Mountain, close to shops, attractions, beautiful view. Divided living space (upstairs and downstairs gathering areas) plus interior laundry. Cons: Kitchen needs updating - new stove but cabinets are falling off the hinges. Microwave was broken for our stay. Not very well stocked with cooking supplies. (We donated a few items from the dollar store) Bathrooms partially upgraded- showers are still in bad shape, downstairs shower-head was broken. Upstairs couch needs replacing- lifted the cushions and it was gross under there. Deck need refinishing, a few boards felt like I might fall through. No useable outdoor furniture.

Best Stay at Big Bear for 1st time

We were super pleased with the location walking distance to the slopes for my son and close to everything. Everything we needed was there. We will for sure be back to book the house.

Big Bear Family Trip

This property was in a perfect location to walk to the slopes of Bear Mountain. It was a fun stay, got what we paid for which was all we needed. Would of been nice though to have the heat on higher than 55 degrees since it was so cold outside and the heat is with wall furnaces which take a while to heat up. Did stay pretty warm once we got it there.

Great location but cabin needs upgrades

To us this cabin was very overpriced. It was a short walk to Bear Mountain which was the best amenity of this cabin. It also has beautiful views of the slopes from every window and balcony. The problem is it was very old. Some of the doors needed many attempts to close the locks. One window was a problem as well. One shower had a water pressure issue. The water in one bathroom sink was slow to drain. You could see through the linens on the bed. The nice thing is the cabin has three levels and two of them have a bathroom and living room with tv on each level. So my husband and I hung out comfortably on one level and my 20-year old and his friend hung out on another. They have two Queen beds, four bunk beds and 2 couches to sleep on. The kitchen was very clean and the refrigerator. The largest TV was a little blurry. The outside deck needs care. One of the panes on the back door was broken. We did not have snow. There are sleds in the closet if you do have snow. This is no Marriott for sure. But kids don’t even notice the age of the cabin. It says 4 cars to park but during Covid it’s only two.

Great Place for 2 Families!

The three-level home was perfect for our two families to enjoy a 4th of July getaway. There was plenty of room for the kids to explore and play. Kids would retreat to the 3rd floor equipped with bunks, play games in the evening and watch Netflix, eat breakfast on the mid-level and hang out on the nice big deck or head downstairs and play foosball and watch Netflix. We spent most of the days out exploring. When we’d return to the home it was quite warm except the floor level stayed pretty cool. Floor level was a nice retreat to cool off, if needed, but as soon as evening came the house would quickly cool down. The fully stocked kitchen and high ceiling was exceptionally nice and served us well as we spent most of our time (when present) in the kitchen and common area. The location was great, too! Tucked away just a couple miles from the lake. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, would recommend it and would return.

Large, and close to the slopes.

This home is large and in a great location for the price, offering a very short walk to the lifts at Bear Mountain. It was comfortable, and we would probably stay there again. The layout is a bit strange. The 1st floor has laundry, a living room, a (queen?) bedroom, a foosball room, and a bathroom. Steep, narrow steps take you to the 2nd floor, which has the exact same layout but with a kitchen replacing the laundry room, and a dining area in place of the foosball room. There is another set of steep, narrow steps off the dining area which take you up to a loft with two bunk beds. The place feels either rustic or dated, depending on your frame of reference. It could use some work and updates, but it will fit the needs of most renters. There are 5 modern Roku TV's: one in each bedroom, and a large one in each living area. We didn't watch a lot of TV, but it was nice to have access to Netflix and cable after a day on the mountain. A few things kept it from 5 stars, but these were to be expected at the price we paid. There was a fair amount of mold (or some other fuzzy black substance that I didn't care to check too carefully) in the 2nd floor bathroom. The foosball table was missing the ball returns, so the kids had to get the ball from under the table every time a goal was scored. Both bonked their heads before eventually giving up. They were excited about foosball, so this sort of ruined the allure of the foosball table. There are a lot of warnings about fees you will incur if you leave anything dirty or out of place. I suspect the owner has had more issues with bad renters than most. For two pairs of parents and a few kids looking for a place that is convenient to Bear Mountain, with a this is a good rental.

Wonderful location

We enjoyed our stay very much. The condo is an easy (1-2 block) walk to Bear Mountain. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots, and pans, and sheets and towels were provided for the bedrooms and bathrooms. The place is not fancy, but is a good choice for a family with kids. Thanks!

Walking on Eggshells and Supervised!

The cabin was really nice and comfortable however, we had to shower with COLD water. There was NO warm water. Only at night. The owner literally lives next door. He was constantly emailing me with reminders. If you don't mind having someone on your back this is the place. Checkout was at 12pm. He literally came and knocked at the door at 11:30am to kick us out "to remind us that checkout was at 12pm AGAIN." We already knew that but he said he didn't see anyone packing the cars. UGH hello we were gathering our stuff and cleaning up! He has so many rules so we wanted to make sure none were broken and that we left the house as he wanted to avoid any fees. Then he asked why we had the mats out hanging on the porch. Like dude! Get off our back! We put them out because he had so many rules we wanted to avoid fees. Other then that its cool that it was across the slopes. BBQ grill no good. It takes so long we gave up on it. He also told me he kicked out his previous renters. Good luck to anyone that wants to stay here! It's really nice and convenient but the owner isn't!

Ski trip to Big Bear Mountain

Property was walkable to Big Bear Mountain ski area. We liked the multiple floors for various gatherings in a group of 6. Mike the host was not the best at communicating and got a bit nasty when we needed a gas bottle exchanged on the gas BBQ. He forced us to walk up the hill to meet him, and schlep the bottle back to the house. That wasn't a good experience. Mike was also a bit nasty prior to arrival when asked for directions. He made a stink about providing location and directions and only provided them after multiple email requests. Not sure what that was about.
