Had a really great time in Big Bear at this stay. I'd definitely come back again and reserve this place if I get the chance. Close to the grocery stores and places to take a nice walk.

Not again - You get what you pay for.....

Here's my issue: 1. the front door lock is broken. We were locked in and had to go around and use the back door to open the front door from outside. this is a big safety issue. if there was a fire in the kitchen we would be stuck. 2. the toilet lever needs replacing 3. the chairs in the dining room needs tightening or replacing 4. you're either too hot or too cold. the heater doesn't really work. 5. the power for the entire house was cut at 2:10 in the morning one night. that meant that there was not heat to the house. and by the way there is no heater vents upstairs. i appreciate the space heaters though. 6. thank you for the shovels. it did snow throughout the night. it was nice to have these to shed the snow off the trucks. 7. the rugs need deep cleaning. none of the kids wanted to even sit on the floor. 8. careful with the hot water in the shower. it's scalding. you constantly have to mess with the valves. I hope the constructive criticism helps.

Nice

Stayed here for a weekend and it was very nice and clean. Check in process was super simple, just drove there and got the keys from lock box didn’t need to drive down to the office. The upstairs does get a little cold but over all I had a great stay would definitely stay here again.

Really cool idea for rental cabins!

The place we stayed in was beautiful: the cabin was warm and cozy even in the dead of winter. It was in a perfect location in respect to the slopes. Less than a mile or so away! Definitely would recommend to others!

Comfy cabin

Nice cabin, close to the convention center. We come in for oktoberfest every year and have booked this cabin twice in a row. The neighborhood is quiet and the neighbors are nice. Cabin is always clean and has plenty of amenities for a quick getaway.

Great Value! Uncomfortable bed...

The unit was older, but the price definitely was great for it! I loved that we could just arrive, open the lockbox, and access the unit without needing to check in at the office.

Older cabin, older interior. Not up to date.

This was an older cabin, so the amenities were not up to date. There is no washer/dryer and only the downstairs heater works. We arrived in winter and it was COLD upstairs at night. They have a few blankets, but not enough. The children were cold the two nights we were there. Also, the couch and one of the beds upstairs are broken. A previous review stated that the bed was broken, but apparently it has not been fixed. The cabin itself is nice and spacious and located on the other side of the lake by the airport. I would not stay at this cabin again.

Surprisingly awesome

I had to make a last minute search for a spontaneous family trip. Did not expect much but I was surprised by how nice the cabin was. Everything was convenient with the Cool Cabins application and the instructions were simple and clear. Highly recommended.
