Big Bear stay in January

Our fam of 12 had an excellent stay at Avalon Retreat in January. Amenities were great and it had plentiful supplies. There were some hiccups during the stay (door code at check in, electrical issue, and my kid locked the bedroom door), but Alison and the property manager were quick to respond each time. There was an incoming storm and the power went out a few times. There were no flashlights to be found. Luckily we brought one and there were a few candles. The beds could use an upgrade. Most other things were minor and would definitely recommend Avalon Retreat!

Kid friendly.

Great property. Highly recommend for a few couples. The cabin is a bit geared toward kids, which we don't have, but if you do have kids I think it's perfect for you. The owner Alison was excellent! Great at communicating and getting us what we needed asap.

Great Get-Away

We really enjoyed our stay at the Avalon Rd cabin! What a great location and property. It met all of our needs...location, size, cleanliness, amenities, and great owners! The large main room was just perfect, allowing everyone to hang out, socialize, cook, and just enjoy our time together. The bedrooms are nicely appointed and having 3 1/2 bathrooms was a nice bonus. Thank you Alison and Chris for allowing us to enjoy your home away from home!

Birthday Getaway

My sisters and there husbands and I rented a cabin for the weekend to celebrate my birthday. Everyone was comfortable and truly enjoyed the beautiful home. It had all the amenities we needed. We loved the games, pool table, bar, spa, and all the TVs. The kitchen was beautiful and well equipped. We loved cooking all together and having the open concept so we could be with the whole family altogether whether they were playing pool or at the bar or in the living room watching TV. The home is decorated beautifully and very clean! The master bedroom was so comfortable! I even took a bath while watching TV with the fire on! What a treat! We can’t wait to come back! Thank you Asher Family!

Nice home

The property appeared just as depicted in the listing. The great room was very nice and we spent the majority of our time in that room. The kitchen was well stocked. Could use a large pan. And we didn't initially have trash bags and kitchen cleaner but they brought them to us right away when we asked. Our contract said checkin was 3 but Alison sent us an email saying we couldn't get in till 4 and then the house cleaner was still there till about 440. But the house was nice and clean and that's important these days. I was really happy that we hads all of the equipment for the billiard table. We played a lot. And the grill was excellent. The blender was very dirty so we couldn't use it. The neighborhood is very nice and in a very convenient location. It was great to have use of the garage but unfortunately the prior tenants had lost the garage door opener. That should be replaced right away as it is fairly inconvenient to walk up the stairs everytime you leave the garage. Ovrrall a very nice place and I would definitely recommend to a family or group of friends

Amazing! We didn't want to leave!

We loved our stay at Fox Farm. The home was clean and beautiful. So much room for us to relax and play. Between the pool table, foosball table, and hottub, we were never out of things to do. We didn't want to leave! Can't wait to get back soon. We had no problems at all and any questions we had were answered very quickly.

Oh my Goodness, this place does not disappoint!

Hello VRBO Patrons! My family and I rented this cabin during the week of March 16, and let me tell you, it was awesome! It is EXACTLY like the pictures. Super clean and well-maintained! The saddle bar-stools were a huge hit with both the kiddos and the adults! Kitchen was well appointed and super user friendly. The bedrooms we all clean and fresh and the beds were comfy. The bunk room is downstairs and all the kids slept there and had a blast. We would absolutely go back! Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Alison Rubino

Host profile image
The Asher family purchased this mountain chalet in Feb. 2020. We live in Orange County with our 2 young son's. After staying in other rental homes in Big Bear, we realized that we wanted to make Big Bear a recurring trip with our family for years to come & that we could offer a better family friendly experience to travelers if we owned a home of our own. We have made many upgrades to this beautiful home including new bunk beds, all new quilts, linens, towels, cutlery, kitchen utensils, Keurig coffee maker, toaster, cooking wares, new safety features, children's items and other amenities to make this a truly memorable stay. We look forward to accommodating you and your group soon!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with "Avalon Retreat," from the moment we saw it and jumped at the chance to own this home and make it our own. We absolutely LOVE the Great Room and all the beautiful upgrades throughout the home. The floor-plan makes for a very comfortable stay with large groups.

What makes this property unique

Truly too many to list! We hope the photos can show you all the lovely details.
