This is our second time staying in this home. It's in a perfect location in a fantastic neighborhood. There was plenty to do between snow play, relaxing in the spa, enjoying family games around the fireplace. I would recommend this to anyone planning to stay in Big Bear!

A great staycation for a family of 4

Brandon’s home is just as pictured. It was extremely clean and comfortable and located in a wonderful neighborhood. It had all the amenities we needed for a nice quiet weekend away from home. It easily accommodated our family of 4.Brandon’s communication was great and he was a pleasure to deal with. He was very accommodating and proactive with information sharing. Thank you for making my son’s birthday weekend perfect.

Excellent property, very clean and well kept! There was snow in the back so we got to play with it and my toddler had a blast sledding. Went with a dog as well who loved messing about in the snow. All around a great experience

Great place for a family getaway

The photos were accurate—a lovely home. Worked great for the six of us. Located close to everything we wanted to do while in Big Bear. The only drawback was lack of air conditioning which made it difficult for sleeping. We thought the weather would be cooler at the end of June.

Fun house with lots of entertainment

House was very entertaining with hot tub, games, ping table. It has all that you could possibly need. Only complete is that home needed a spring cleaning and upkeep. Other than that it was a good stay.

Quiet and fun

Lots of entertainment provided, plenty of room and a lovely view. Very quiet neighborhood, about 10 minutes or less from everything. Bring your own firewood if you want to use the fireplace and trash bags as only a couple are provided and you do have to haul your own trash out in Big Bear.

Fantastic property

Everything about this property was fantastic. Plenty of room for 4 adults and 2 kids. We had so much fun with the ping pong table, darts and foosball table in the garage. The shuffleboard table inside was great. The house was clean and roomy. Property has beautiful views. Neighborhood is upscale and beautiful. Brandon was responsive for the few little things that we had questions about during our trip. We would absolutely stay here again. We all loved this home!

Fun Property Indoors and Out

Good location to get to everything. Back porch with spa and grill was a great place to hand out on a very hot weekend (that included an areawide power outage). Large and well stocked kitchen. Game room in the garage was too hot to use for our weekend, but living room shuffleboard was a hit. Clean. All questions were answered by Brandon.

Castle Glen Estates

Surrounded by luxury homes. Home was as advertised. Our family of six enjoyed the spacious open living area and the many games. We could not enjoy the hot tub as it was not repaired until late on our last day. But enjoyed the outdoor fire pit in the evenings. We all agreed we would return. Thank you Brandon for the excellent communications!

Nice neighborhood

The house was mostly as it appears in the listing. But the beds had worn out foam toppers on them that were very uncomfortable, and the bed pillows were flat with no loft. We could not access any streaming on the LR TV and the LR soundbar would not work for us. The hot tub had a broken, sagging cover that was heavy and difficult to handle.

I never, ever leave a negative review because I can sympathize with how challenging it can be to manage a property you’re renting to strangers. However, I have traveled for years and prefer to rent homes vs hotels. I decided to book this home through VRBO because it appeared to meet our needs; I wanted to treat my son, his wife and my two grandsons to a fun, luxurious, comfortable holiday weekend which also happened to fall on their 12th wedding anniversary. The description and photos looked ideal, but the reality was a jarring shock. This property was filthy, the “amenities” were out of order. The sauna- out of order. The hot tub- the cover broken, the lift, broken, and we were told not to go above 100 degrees or the breakers would shut off. The screen doors were broken, bent, didn’t close completely; the door and window frames were covered in dirt and dead insects. Half of the light fixtures have broken switches and half of the outlets don’t work. The beds are squeaky, have 2 flat pillows allotted to each bed; the washing machine had mold growing inside; the landscaping was filled with weeds and broken outdoor lights. The “game room” has a broken play station, the floor is filthy and smelly. I spoke at length to VRBO after no resolution was offered by the owner, who tried to blame me because I asked if I could possibly get in a few hours early. He said the cleaners didn’t finish in time. Very upsetting experience but VRBO was very supportive.
