Nice time

Reservation process is the most detailed and thorough I've ever been through. I didn't mind spending more time doing all this because it seems like this is a really buttoned up company. Someone was always available over the phone when I needed help. The unit has an amazing view, of course. Not too far from the center of town. Shower had great water pressure. Beds were comfortable enough. Plenty of seating. I would definitely recommend staying here for a vacation. Unit is older like most everything in big bear. But it's in decent shape. Heater works well. The only warning I would give people is, the driveway is pretty steep and longish. Depending on what car or truck you drive, it can be hard to get out early in the morning due to the ice that accumulates. The ice seemed the worst at the bottom. I think I would advise parking near the top of the driveway if you plan on leaving early in the morning. But all in all, great stay and I would definitely stay here again.

The view and location was perfect

We loved staying here, because the view was absolutely beautiful. We saw the sunset over the Lake and also the moonset over the lake in the morning. We appreciated the big fireplace and central heat in the winter. Accommodations were comfortable, but it is all original and could’ve been cleaner when we checked in. The kitchen sink was dirty and I could tell some of the tables had not been wiped down in a while. Also, there are cobwebs on the light fixtures and ceiling areas.

Great Location - Lots of Room for the Family

Brought the kids up to the snow after Christmas and we were lucky enough to get this cabin. Although it had a one star review, we were happy with the location and the layout. Tons of room for the family, great location and bigger than other cabins that we have rented. We would come back - thank you!

Highly disappointed by the lack of cleanliness

When we booked the lakefront property, it seemed like a great fit for us and our friends (3 families with little kids). However, once we got there, we couldn't overlook the filthiness of the cabin: dirty comforters and pillows, medicines on the floors (our toddlers could have put them in their mouths), spiderwebs on the walls, crumpled paper under the couch, and unsafe outlets. Not to mention that I saw some nasty bugs crawling in the hallway at night:( Last but not least, the AC unit was so old that made the cabin either too hot or too cold:(. It was so uncomfortable that 2 families left after one night stay (we had booked 2 nights). Our New Year vacation was ruined and that was because the cabin was not clean:( and cozy (as advertised). I would not recommend this place to anyone.
