Great house

Everything looks just like the pictures. The location is perfect, just a few minute walk to the lake, no steep roads to drive up to the house, which is great because we may have gotten stuck in the snow or ice. Right off the main road which is close to the Village, Snow Summit, restaurants, etc., I think the only thing we wish it had was tv’s in all the rooms, only 2 tv’s in the house. And the kitchen was beautiful but the ovens were not working while we stayed there. Just a few minor adjustments could be fixed, but overall a great place to stay in Big Bear!

Beautiful relaxing getaway weekend

This property was away from the busy areas but close enough to do everything we wanted to do. Very clean, beautiful scenery, and just what we needed to relax for the weekend. Would be a great place for a family thanksgiving or get together too. We will probably be back someday.

Beautiful House - Would Rent Again

The views from the house were beautiful and the location is perfect. We had 2 young boys with us and 2 teenage girls and they all enjoyed the foosball and ping pong table and the walking distance to the lake to fish. We were a large group of 13 and the house suited us fine! Plenty of cooks in the kitchen and everything we needed was there. Would definitely stay here again.

Not as Advertised!

I had a disappointing experience with our stay at the AvantStay property in Big Bear. The third-floor bathroom was leaking onto the patio, and the fridge was not working and needs to be replaced. The advertised charcoal grill was missing, and the propane grill we found was rusted and damaged. Several other amenities shown in the photos, like outdoor cushions and swings, were also absent. Overall, it fell short of expectations, and I cannot recommend this property.

Weekend in Big Bear Lake

We went to big bear for the weekend of May 1-3 for my wife's birthday and let me start by saying that we had a blast. The location was great and the house had everything we needed . The owner was extremely nice and accomodating towards our stay. The view from the house deck and upper balcony was to die for . We did a lot of outdoor activities like hiking and kayaking. Awesome location. We will most define it be returning and staying here again.

Amazing time

Property was amazing. Great view of the stars. Quiet enough to relax but enough space between neighbors so that you can be pretty loud yet not disturb anyone. The home is spacious and has everything you need. Communication was great with everyone. We were very sad to leave. I recommend this to anyone wanting to get away with family or friends.

Great Family Vacation Spot

We were so happy with our choice to stay at Boulder Bay Lodge! We went for four nights with a group of our family (there were 10 of us total) and we were so pleased with everything. We had more than enough room, there were plenty of amenities, beautiful view, and more than enough clean towels, linens, and anything else we needed in the house. My favorite was the wonderful deck where we bbq'd and hung out almost every night for dinner. There is a beautiful view of the lake from just about any room in the house. We would definitely go back.

Great Place...But

Overall the house was nice, great location lots of room and we had a great weekend. It was the little things that were frustrating. The master shower didn't work, poorly equipped kitchen, no oven mitts etc. Very hot upstairs and very cold in the first-floor bedrooms.

Love this house

This was a very beautiful and relaxing home. It was very spacious, the view from the deck was great. Had a lot of fun with friends in the house; there is ping pong, foosball, and a jacuzzi! The owner Ryan was really nice, he met up with us at the property to give us the key and a tour of the house. He told us how to work everything and made us feel at home. Coming back here for sure.

Family Getaway

We had a very nice stay at this cabin overall. It accommodated our large group very well. The living area & deck were great. The spa was a big hit with our smaller grand children. The bedrooms & bathrooms were very nice. The kitchen was very nice and well equipped. The only problem was there were ants in the downstairs bathroom & bedrooms. The master on the third floor was not ideal for us older folk.

Gorgeous home and excellent service

The home is simply superlative. It's very well laid out and outfitted with luxurious accoutrements. The open floor plan in the main kitchen/living room that extends to the deck made it a perfect center to hang out and eat. The separation of the game room on the first floor from the rest of the house also made it convenient in terms of insulating the late night foosball game noise from the rest of the house. Ryan and his staff were excellent hosts and very responsive. We'd definitely return.

Annual Family Vacation

My family and I spent the weekend in this beautiful Boulder Bay home. The moment we walked in everyone was taken aback by the gorgeous home and spectacular views. We were a party of 12, enjoying our annual family trip. We had so much fun, enjoying the lake, Oktoberfest, trails, and of course the ability to decompress by getting away from the city. We had 3 kids and 1 baby with us, the kids had the bunk bed room all to themselves and we took 1 of the masters which had enough room for our playpen. The home in great condition, rooms were spacious, the kitchen was perfect for cooking for our family, the deck was ideal for entertaining, and the property offered plenty of outdoor space for the kids, all fenced in. Thank you for being the best host! Best Big Bear vacation yet!

Fantastic Home!

I have rented many vacation homes in the Big Bear area and this is by far the best. We had 12 in our group for a reunion get together and there was more than enough room for everyone to be comfortable. The 2nd story deck was perfect for our group to enjoy the great outdoors, bbq and just relax. The kitchen was grade A with everything you need to prepare meals for a large group. The boat dock was super close and provided an ideal area for fishing. The house is just felt like home during our stay. The owner Ryan was a pleasure to work with. He really went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed. Everyone had an amazing time and I would definitely recommend this home to anyone planning a vacation. Can't wait to come back. Big thank you to Ryan at WowRentals.com.

Beautiful Boulder Bay

Just stayed for 4 nights at this Boulder Bay house and my family of 11 absolutely LOVED IT ! The size and floor plan was perfect for all of us. We had 6 adults, 3 teenagers, 1 4yr old and 10month old. The enclosed railing on the deck was ideal especially for the smaller ones and the swing was a big hit. What a great idea and special touch. Another big hit was the game room with darts, ping ball and the foosball game. Thanks to the owner for also including bicycles. The outdoors area was large enough to also play other games. Of course the hot tub topped it all off especially after swimming in the beach park which is right next door. The kitchen, dining area and living room was as roomy, useful and beautiful as the pictures. we all felt right at home and can't wait to return. Thanks Ryan for welcoming my family and the use of your home.
