About the host

Hosted by Heather Manley

Host profile image
Hi there! I’m Heather, a long-time wedding floral designer and event stylist who has spent nearly three decades creating unforgettable experiences for couples and families. Bringing beauty, comfort, and thoughtful details to life is my passion — and that’s exactly what inspired The Velvet Pine.

As a Superhost-level, hospitality-obsessed, detail-driven creator, I’ve poured my heart into designing a mountain retreat where guests can slow down, reconnect, and feel truly cared for. From luxury touches to cozy corners, every part of this cabin was intentionally designed to create a romantic, relaxing, and memorable getaway.

I believe in warm welcomes, clear communication, and making each stay feel effortless. Whether you’re here for a family adventure in the snow, a girls’ weekend, a romantic escape, or simply to recharge in nature, I’m here to ensure your stay is smooth, enjoyable, and full of special moments.

When I’m not crafting beautiful events or perfecting cabin details, you’ll find me treasure-hunting décor, sipping coffee overlooking the pines, or spending time with my four amazing kids.

Thank you for choosing The Velvet Pine — a place created with love, intention, and a splash of magic. I can’t wait to host you. 💛🌲

Why they chose this property

We chose the Moonridge neighborhood because it perfectly captures everything we love about Big Bear — peaceful mountain living, natural beauty, and easy access to adventure. Moonridge feels tucked away and serene, with towering pines, open skies, and a true forest atmosphere, yet it’s just minutes from Bear Mountain Ski Resort, hiking trails, golf, the Alpine Zoo, and some of Big Bear’s favorite local spots. The area offers a quieter, more relaxed pace than the village, making it ideal for guests who want privacy, space, and a genuine cabin-in-the-woods experience without sacrificing convenience. Moonridge is known for its charm, safety, and year-round appeal, and it felt like the perfect setting to create a retreat where guests can slow down, reconnect, and truly enjoy the magic of the mountains

What makes this property unique

What makes The Velvet Pine truly unique is that it was designed as an experience, not just a place to stay. Set on a rare full private acre in Big Bear, the cabin offers space, privacy, and a sense of retreat that most mountain homes simply don’t have. Every area of the property was intentionally created to invite connection and relaxation—from the Gatsby-inspired movie theater and twinkle-lit pergola to the multiple fire features, treehouse, and private sledding hill. Designed by a luxury event stylist, the home blends warmth, comfort, and elevated design with thoughtful amenities that make stays effortless for families, couples, and groups alike. The result is a cabin that feels immersive, memorable, and personal—where guests don’t just visit Big Bear, they experience it.
