Catalina Creekside

Everything was fabulous, except at 10:50 am the cleaning crew showed up and started running around cleaning, stripping sheets, and putting stuff around like trash bags, we were finishing up getting all our stuff out, but they interfered with our organization, and we were getting confused and were not able to do a final walk through. They could have waited until 11:00am when we left the cabin and should not have interfered with our cleaning up and leaving the cabin. We left it in very good condition, and we felt stressed out with them there. Other than that, it was fantastic, clean and it was a lovely vacation for us.

Great Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay at this cute little cabin. The backyard was enormous and perfect for the dogs. (We did see a coyote on the road so be careful). The kitchen was well appointed and had everything that we needed, the appliances were high quality, but the knives definitely need to be sharpened. The place was spotless and we loved having a bathroom for each bedroom. The only issue we had, and it wasn't a big one, was that there really enough light in the living room. This will be my new go to spot every time I go to Big Bear.

Cute cabin

The cabin was great, looks better than the pictures online, kitchen is fully stocked, has a gas grill and nice fenced in yard for dogs. The flooding was tile which is great because we were worried about walking in with snowy shoes. It was easy to wipe off the snow/wetness. This cabin is perfect for 2 couples. The fact that it is pet friendly is a huge plus. Although the cabin was nice, I didn't like the communication and booking with this management company and website. We didn't get check in instructions or address or any real instructions/confirmation until I called to ask. We were only staying for 1 day and we were driving through a no cell service area so we wanted to know in advance that we are in fact confirmed for the stay and are expected to check in by a certain time and should expect door code by this time and via text/email. It was very disappointing that I had to make that much effort to get check in instructions (called and multiple text messages). I wish the process was explained in the 6 unnecessary emails prior to our stay sent with no real information. Also download their app which was useless. The other thing I had to do was text them a picture of my credit card. This is a huge red flag, if they need to check our cc and ID they should be there at the check in and not having us send sensitive data via unprotected routes.

A Lovely, Pet Friendly, Couples Cabin

This cabin is perfect for two couples and their dogs. The décor is super, "Big Bear" cute. It is well stocked with cooking equipment and bathroom supplies- along with a huge, fenced backyard for your furry companion. . There are a few issues to be aware of.... *Do not leave your dog alone in the back yard. Our first afternoon, we spotted a large, healthy coyote walking the back fence line. *The driveway is very steep and below street level. Catalina is 25mph street but sadly most traffic exceeds that limit. Backing onto the street from the driveway can be treacherous. It is difficult to see oncoming traffic due to the elevation and curviness of Catalina. Better to turn around in the driveway and head out onto Catalina. *The king beds are lovely but very high. If you are short, you may need a step. *You are required to take all trash to a secondary location - when you checkout. *If you are a stickler for privacy, the neighbor's home sits back in their lot and has a direct view into the backrooms of this cabin. There are well functioning blinds on all the windows but backyard activities will be on display. Happily, the next door cabin was never occupied during our stay so it was not a serious issue. My only complaint...a few dishes (coffee cups and plates) were not properly cleaned by the previous occupant - and this issue was apparently missed by the cleaning crew. We very much enjoyed our stay and highly recommend staying here.

Overall status is great. The check-in process is a nightmare. We reached there and got the wrong code from the office. We tried the code for 25 minutes before somebody came to help us. The properties is great, but the check in process was a nightmare.

Nice Accommodations in Big Bear

The cabin was neat and clean. Great fenced in backyard for pets. However the back porch could use a good cleaning as the furniture was full of tree sap. Would consider renting in the future.

Wonderful Big Bear Getaway

Our stay at Creekside Cabin was wonderful! The property was exactly as described/pictured. This cabin is so well maintained and clean throughout - truly one of the best vacation rentals we’ve visited. The location is great - peaceful neighborhood close to the lake, restaurants, grocery stores, gas stations and anything else you might want to visit is just a quick drive away. The kitchen is nicely stocked with everything you need to have meals in. Beds were very comfortable, WiFi very stable, TV options great. Enjoyed morning coffee and lazy late afternoons out on the large deck while our dogs romped and explored in the big back yard. The host dropped emails and texts to keep us fully informed at all times. Check in at the office was super easy and the staff was very professional, pleasant and helpful. Five Star stay for sure!

Creekside Cabin

Great property with huge backyard that is fenced in, perfect for pets! Kitchen has everything you will need. You may want to bring your own bath towels as they are old and small, like drying off with a kitchen towel- I think this is Cool Cabins versus the property owner. We will be returning!

Creekside Catalina

This was our 4th time staying here. Great location - close to restaurants and groceries, as well as the Village and the lake. Cabin is comfortable and looks to have whatever you need if you want to cook. Since we're on vacation and don't want to do dishes, we bring paper and plastic plates, silverware and cups, always eating out or bringing meals in. (Maggio's is close and has good food to bring home and eat!) The backyard is wonderful!! Very large and serene, it's fully fenced for pups and has a horseshoe pit. There's comfortable furniture on the large deck and we spend a lot of time sitting outside, feeding the squirrels and Bluejays. We even saw 3 coyotes run past this time! LOVE the peaceful feeling here! The only negatives for us were a couple things that have changed since we first started staying here. For one, the towels/washcloths are now very thin, rough ones, so old they're graying. I read this in another review so we brought bath towels this time. Also, there's now only Roku to watch at night instead of cable or satellite, so it's a pain to change 'channels' and it's not possible to watch regular TV channels as they're broadcast. This cabin is still our favorite place to stay in BBL. We even called to extend our stay this time.

What a cute place to stay

We stayed at the Creekside cabin with our dog and it had the perfect giant fenced yard for her to run around. The place was so clean and had everything that we could possibly have needed as far as cookware and utensils and that kind of thing. What a great place will be back soon.
