Cute cabin in Big Bear Lake

Nice little well-kept cabin in the forest, in a peaceful and pleasant, walkable neighborhood. Great setup for couple or family, not too far to walk to the lake, would be ideal for skiers.

Nice cabin; great location

We enjoyed the cabin and the quiet neighborhood. Comfortable beds, updated kitchen and bathrooms. Easy to access to everything. Definite Big Bear charm. Communication with Nancy was near instantaneous.

The home is super cute and close to Snow Summit. Great for kids to play around the house. We did have an issue with hot water not working and the kitchen was a struggle with ants everywhere.

Perfect Location

It is very close to Snow Summit. Just a few blocks away. But we still drove for convenience because the walk is all uphill. Pros: clean home, location, fully stocked kitchen, very responsive management Cons: a few spiders and kitchen sink was being serviced at the time of our stay but not a big deal.. Will definitely return!

We are glad you enjoyed your stay, Tamai, and we appreciate your patience regarding the sink as these things sometimes don't happen at the most convenient times. We have passed on the info about the spiders to the homeowner who is on it. Thanks for letting us know because without your feedback we would not be able to address the issue. We would love to host you again sometime :-)

Great location and cute cabin. It was hot outside and unfortunately no AC inside, so it was hard to get the rooms to cool down until the evening. There are box fans provided, though, for air flow.
Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 24 July 2025
It is true that not many cabins in our area offer air conditioning, but we find that the box fans usually do the trick for optimal air circulation. We are glad you stayed with us, though, as El Alamo is convenient to the resorts, town and easy access to the free trolley system. We hope you will be back sometime, Erin - thanks for being such a lovely guest.

The cabin was great! We had great communication with the property management. Everything was very clean. They provide you with one nights worth of wood for the inside fireplace. There is room to park 3 cars. Very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. You can walk to the main Street Big Bear Blvd. Where there are lots of restaurants ans shops. I wouod definitely stayvhere again ๐Ÿ˜Š
