RENTAL AGREEMENT PLUS GUEST VERIFICATION

There are two sets of online forms and ID verifications you must complete. Both are easy to fill out quickly.

The first one is required by San Bernardino County. This is the rental agreement and a copy of your picture ID. The county requires us to keep a copy of those on file. You will receive a link to do that when confirming your reservation.

In addition to the rental agreement you will be asked to complete a third party guest verification. At that time you will also be given the choice between a security deposit or a non-refundable damage waiver. This provides both our guests and our property with extra protection.

This is done through third-party provider Superhog. Superhog will contact you via email and/or text to complete the verification. Please take care of both prior to arriving at the property to enable a quick and easy check-in process.

Best Vacation Stay
Amazing stay. Only plans were to relax and escape the heat and we definitely accomplished that. The arcade was great for my older gamer boys and the infinity table was a fantastic surprise

About the host

Hosted by Johnny Yakubik

Host profile image
I spent many years in Las Vegas which is where I met my wife. In 2009 we moved to San Diego so she could pursue a masters degree in education. After she graduated we decided to stay and raise kids here on the beach. We had a son New Years Eve 2013 and, a little girl in May of 2016. So we have our hands full!

Our family spends time in Big Bear frequently and, we love VRBO. I've also got great property managers there helping me which means you'll get quality service and, great local recommendations. By day I own a marketing company. By night I am a photographer. My family rents vacation properties frequently. That's why we decided to buy one. I know what a host should do to create a 5 star guest experience. We love to travel to Mexico, Hawaii, Las Vegas (to visit family and friends) and Big Bear when we're not here at home in Carlsbad.
