Stay at Big Bear
This condo was dirty. Check in experience was not helpful, we checked in early given the explicit directions outlined yet were not provided with the house number nor code until around 10 minutes before 4pm. Water pressure was non existent, and water temperature was either boiling or extremely cold. Location is great but aside from that, I would recommend looking elsewhere for this price.

We are so sorry to hear that you did not fully enjoy your experience with us Ann-Marie. Our team has taken your feedback into consideration and performed a full quality inspection of the cabin to ensure a much better experience can be had. We do hope to have the opportunity to host you again in one of our many other homes for a better experience next time!
Overall I would give our stay a 3.5.
Pros:
Check-in, customer service, and housekeeping/cleanliness of the property were great. Loved the living area for our young family, great neighborhood, and great hot water pressure.
Cons:
The property is really old. There is a very musty smell coming from the kitchen sink. The linens are very dated. Knob came off one of the sinks. The property was very hot/musty when we first arrived (we stayed in mid-July) but got better after we opened all the windows.
Overall, it was comfortable & okay for the price.

Thanks for your review Helen.. Our team has taken your feedback to heart and are working on improvements to the cabin for future visits. We hope to host you again soon!
Filthy carpet, everything inside is cheap crap and/or very old 70s Era. Check out time of 10AM is too early and refused late checkout request, minimal amenities and TVs are pretty much useless
