Nice place for two couples to base themselves for Octoberfest. We didn't stay long enough to take full advantage of some of the extras like the games and theater, but they were nice to have!

Awesome time here in this cabin. Beautiful home. Really great area, safe and quiet. Host always replied within minutes. Some TV remotes were missing and they right away send people to replace them and program them. Location within minutes to go anywhere.

Can't wait to come back!!

I've been coming up to Big Bear for over 30 years since I was a kid. Our family has had two different cabins up there in the past. I have been renting the last few years whenever I visit. This is one of our favorite places. Really nice cabin with modern touches. Great game room theater. Huge deck which was so fun Barbecuing on every night surrounded by trees. Big fenced backyard completely stocked kitchen. This could be our new spot for summer and winter trips. Having said that, none of the outlets worked in the back room that leads into the deck. Could have been user error though.

Perfect family getaway

We spent a wonderful weekend at Camp Conklin. The cabin was absolutely immaculate and adorable. We enjoyed hosting a family dinner with our children and their spouses on the balcony where we soaked in the beauty of the Big Bear forest. The game room was a big hit as well. Highly recommend this property for those seeking a welcoming, warm and cozy getaway.

Underwhelmed

Great Location, close to downtown, quiet neighborhood. The staff of property management company were very nice and professional. Property was so so, broken shower door that didn't close. Someone had a posted a note so they knew it wasn't working. Bring your own body soap and spices as they are not provided. Toilet paper and towels are minimal and you will need more. Prepare to take your own trash to the city dump. Not the place for a relaxing get away.

Our stay at Camp Conklin

House was okay, but too many stairs for those of us in our 70’s. Building has been upgraded inside nicely. Dishwasher didn’t work. No linens provided for hide-a-bed.
