50th bday getaway

This place was perfect for a small group of fellas. We relaxed, watched the games and had a beer. The kitchen was perfect for all to sit together and eat. Bring your own seasoning 😉

Very good for 5 people

The property was perfect for us. It had everything we needed in the kitchen to cook and the location is great (for our ski vacation). The good mattresses in the house are only those of the Queen beds and one more folded mattress. The rest of them were not comfortable at all, so I only recommend this house for 5 people but no more than that.

cozy cabin but requires landscaping and cleanliness

It is a nice cozy cabin as listed. I give it 4 stars due to lack of cleanliness (spider webs and dead flies on the couch). We were mainly disappointed by the backyard, which needs proper landscaping. Having said that we enjoyed our stay. They have good collection of books and beautiful bear valley themed interior. Cabin had all latest amenities.

Very nice cabin. Great location

We stayed here for the weekend. This was our first time in Big Bear in awhile, and our grandsons first snow experience 😀 We’d highly recommend this cabin and will be returning.
