We knew the unit would be on the lake, but we didn't expect windows across the living room and balcony with a spectacular panoramic view of Big Bear Lake and the mountains. We were thrilled to be able to walk into town. Communication with the host was excellent. Everything about this stay was easy and we will book this place again!

Beautiful location right on Big Bear Lake. Clean with all household amenities provided. Price was right. Bbq did not work which was disappointing as had brought tri-tip. Was rather old and when started could not heat up sufficiently. We enjoyed our stay and would strongly recommend. Relaxing stay.

Fantastic location and amazing view! There are large sliding glass doors that look right out on the lake and the mountains beyond. This place is right on the lake with a dock and is a short walk to restaurants in the Village. We have stayed in Big Bear many times and this is one of the best locations. We were able to avoid the weekend traffic and parking struggles because we could walk to everything. There is a nice kitchen, comfortable beds, and a large couch. We had a great stay and would definitely stay here again.

Great cabin, awesome location, and easy access to the lake. The fireplace works wonders, and it was fun to go for a walk to the lake and have space to let our dog out during the day!

Kari was a great host. The check in process was smooth and the view was fantastic. To be able to walk to both the lake and the village was great. There were a few cob webs and stuff on the outside and inside, but hey, you're in the mountains people. Overall, 5 out of 5. Would recommend to people.

Awesome little lakefront location with a beautiful view. Family and dog had a nice, relaxing weekend, enjoyed dinners on the deck and sunsets over the lake out on the swing in the yard. My favorite was morning coffee at sunrise in the comfy rustic wooden chairs watching the mama ducks and their babies. It was a sunny, hotter than usual weekend, so we had brought a beach umbrella with us, and it came in handy for the afternoon sun and sitting out in the yard for the view. They had several fans there to use to help cool the place off and the host was very easy and quick to respond when communicating. We are looking forward to staying here again.

We enjoyed our stay at this lakefront chalet which truly had wonderful views of the lake, right on the water! The space layout was perfect for our group of three. It was clean, cutely decorated and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Host Kari was proactive and responsive, as well.

"We had a wonderful, relaxing stay. The lake views are simply stunning! It felt more like staying at a friend’s cozy mountain home than a rental, which allowed us to completely unwind." We even saw a couple bald eagles fly over while sitting on the dock. The home has a charming, 'classic' feel with older furniture, but it was very clean and provided every amenity we could ask for incision string wifi. Easy parking for 2 cars. Marina 2 minute walk away to rent a kayak or boat. Great location.
