Great location and great time by all

My family visited Easter weekend and had a great stay in this modern cabin. Very short drive to Snow Summit (even walkable for the ambitious). Recommend.

Our stay

We wished that the pool sticks for the pool table were able to be used. Only one was not broken. And we need a few more dish towels and oven mitts. Otherwise it was beautiful and would stay there again.

Overall great stay...However

Overall we had a great stay. We enjoyed the foosball and pool table in the living room. The house felt clean and provided almost everything we needed. The location is PERFECT and loved the fence in backyard. The only major complaint my husband and I have is the master bed. It is rock hard and the most uncomfortable bed i've ever layed on. My husband and I ended up sleeping in the bunk bed room our entire 4 night stay which was very disappointing. Definitely would recommended changing out that master bedroom matteress asap.

Hello Vladimir, Thank you for staying with us and leaving a review. I do sincerely apologize for this. We did contact you on 1/28 letting you know that the pool table/ping pong table was damaged and needed to be replaced. You were okay with that and asked to have a late check-out comped. We hope to have you back in the near future. Big Bear Cool Cabins

The property is exactly as described in the listing. It had a well stocked kitchen, a lot of entertainment options and we especially enjoyed the back porch and fenced-in yard. The house was conveniently located close to trails and the village. Would stay here again!
