We had 14 in our party, ranging in age from 4 weeks old to celebrating our patriarch's 70th birthday. The house was large enough to accommodate us all easily, with room for the little ones to roam.
It is located minutes away from the village center. We enjoyed a summer outdoor concert, walks along the boardwalk, the sky lift to the top of Snow Summit and a short walk around the top of the mountain. There was a bounce house there for the kiddos too. One day we went to the zoo. Another day to the beach at the lake.
A great mini vacation.

Thank you for the fantastic review! We're thrilled that our home could accommodate your diverse group and that you enjoyed the convenient location for all your activities. It sounds like you had a memorable mini vacation with plenty of fun for everyone. We hope to welcome you back to Big Bear Vacations for another great stay!
Overall, a great property. Some things we noticed: The arcade game machine is misleading, it doesnt work and it says " for decor only" which was kind of a bummer since the photo shows it on and working.
The fans did not work in multiple communal spaces. There is no counter cleaning spray as well so bring your own. It could use some more towels too if you have a large group.
On the positive side, beautiful property, lots of space, very clean. Would definitely recommend for a large group!
