This was our second stay at this property, and it was just as wonderful as the first. The home is spotless, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. Communication with the host was excellent throughout our stay. The location is ideal—only a casual 4–5 minute walk to town—and the views are absolutely stunning. The neighborhood is quiet and relaxing, and the house is stocked with everything you could need: washer and dryer, full kitchen, microwave, coffee maker, Keurig, crock pots, TVs, and games. A perfect stay once again!

Fantastic location and amenities

We had a great stay here and would highly recommend to anyone visiting Big Bear. Lots of space in the house and a full kitchen allowed for an enjoyable experience. This property was perfectly located close to Snow Summit and the main road and shops, but in a quiet neighborhood.

Great Family Stay

Everything that was advertised was spot on. The location was great and the house is nice! This is a perfect place to stay for families and to be close to the slopes and the Village. There are not shower amenities (shampoo, conditioner, body wash), but that's ok we travel with our own stuff. Other than that they had all the amenities needed. Suzannah was a great host, thank you!

Not sure why people said 10/10 for this house because it was not clean. Everything was falling apart or dirty. The couches were all ripped. The room carpets were all dog hair. Not a house for kids with dog hair everywhere and very steep stairs. You open the door and it’s the stairs. The balcony downstairs was not actually covered it was leaking all the rain down. The window shades were all broken. The house is very dark and small. I would rate the 1.

Snowy Getaway

We had a wonderful stay. Due to an incoming storm, we weren’t sure we would make it up the mountain for our reservation. The property owner was helpful and accommodating and provided us with weather and traffic links used by locals, which proved to be extremely helpful. We were able to safely make it up the mountain and did not have to cut our trip short. The cabin felt like a home and was very cozy. We had everything we needed to enjoy a relaxing getaway. Would definitely stay again on our next trip!

A most spectacular house

We loved the house, very roomy, comfortable clean, very well maintained. We didn’t cook In the house but everything you would have needed was there. Bedrooms are large, living space excellent, kitchen, bathrooms clean and large. When we arrived it felt like home there was nothing lacking at this property. I hate to leave such a good review because we want this place to be a secret just for us!!!! Highly recommend, great communication with owner.

The property looked well kept and updated. There were a lot of family games in the house. The kitchen was equipped with enough cookware and dinnerware to prepare and have a family meal. Some of the windows did not have window covers. The one's with covers needed to be replaced.

About the host

Hosted by Suzannah de Kansky

Host profile image
We are a family of four who were born and raised in Southern California. We (parents) were able to enjoy Big Bear Lake in our youth and fell in love with the place. With its cool autumns, snowy winters and beach weather summers, we always dreamed of being able to own a home in Big Bear to share with our children, family, friends and guests. We recently had the opportunity to purchase this perfect home, "Hilltop Haven". So close to LA, yet so far away. The perfect escape from our hectic daily lives. We look forward to hearing from you!

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location!
5-minute walk to The Village; 8 minutes to the Marina. Snow Summit is one easy mile east. Peaceful, quiet neighborhood perched above Big Bear Village (great for family walks or bike rides), yet close to all of Big Bear's amenities!
