Older cabin with a beautiful deck

Had a great time with my family on Memorial Day weekend. We really liked the cabin! The deck was our favorite part. I gave it 4 stars because it is outdated. We would definitely stay again

Christmas Vacation

The cabin was very cozy with a nice living room and awesome wood fire place. The beds and pillows on all of the rooms need to be upgraded as these were not comfortable.

Perfect weekend getaway with kids.

We didn't leave until it was time to go. Easy walking into the National Forest, even walked to the local store/restaurant. Had everything we needed. Fireplace was great, bedrooms decent size, plenty of common space. Only note is that if you're cooking, bring your own spices. Pots, pans, utensils are there, but no condiments or spices.

So glad that you had a wonderful stay!! Each house is supposed to have salt and pepper - very sorry if that was missing. I've emailed housekeeping to check each house carefully for that. We very much appreciate you staying with us. If you don't mind, we would so appreciate a Yelp Review but only if you have a minute and don't mind. Thank for staying with us and we look forward to seeing you next time you're in Big Bear :)

Terrific cabin!

This is a great spot with woods right there to take a nice little hike. Tastefully decorated with lots of movies and games available. The cabin is equipped with everything you could possibly need. Plenty of blankets and a great fireplace. We had a maintenance issue that was remedied within the hour. Thank you for the great service.

I’m sorry but this property felt so old and creepy I couldn’t sleep at all here. Needs updating

It was very outdated and television didn’t work and felt very secluded from everything. Wouldn’t recommend

Location

You need to give accurate information about how far away the property is from the main office. AND DO TELL not to use navigation system because it will take you thru dangerous places (icy roads)

Hi, Janeth! Thank you so much for your time and feedback. Unfortunately, traveling to the mountains during the winter months, you will find there are icy roads whether or not the GPS is guiding you. We will have a team member and see what is wrong with the directions to better assist future guests. Thank you, Big Bear Cool Cabins

The 3 C's...Cozy, Comfortable & Clean

Granny's Love Shack is a two bedroom cabin/house that was very cozy and comfortable and sleeps up to 6 guests, the living room also has enough seating for everyone and a fireplace if you decide to use it. The kitchen also has all the accommodations one would need. There was a balcony with a grill, but we did not use it because we stayed during January when it was snowing. The house is located in a culdesac/dead end street, which led to a hilly area with trees. It was perfect for sliding down the hill with a sled, which my daughter loved. The beds were a bit noisy, as they still have the plastic wrapping on the mattress. Besides that, everything else was great. Would definitely stay here again.

It was comfortable

It was perfect for just a few days. There was construction going on on the house behind us. We weren’t able to spend much time on the deck because of the noise. It wasn’t a big deal though. We were out and about most of the time. I would use the cabin again.

Cozy cabin

Cozy yet spacious. Cute furnishings. We loved the balcony deck. Nice, quiet, neighborhood. Could have done without the Christmas tree in August. There was an ant problem in the bathroom but maintenance took care of it right away. I suggest providing coffee for the coffeemaker and more firewood. Beware the hot water is limited. Overall, lovely place to stay.
Response from VrboOwner on 25 August 2023
Thank you so much for staying with us! Will definitely let the management know about the desire for coffee and more firewood. We do 10% discount for return guests so be sure to let us know when you come back that you've stayed with us. Happy 2020!!
