Thank you for choosing Big Bear Vacations and for rating us. We are so pleased to hear you found your stay at Chimney Peak Chalet to your liking. We look forward to seeing you again soon.
We had a wonderful stay! The cabin was so beautiful and cozy. We had 8 people stay and had enough beds for everyone (2 kings and what seemed to be 2 queens all in separate rooms). They had a cute record player and so many fun games to choose from! The only complaints I have about the cabin itself is that my friend did say she heard footsteps in the bedrooms above her when others were walking around at night, and the light dimmers didn’t really work to make the lights less harsh without flickering. I was a little disappointed with how much money the stay was given the limited time we were allowed to stay. We had to wait until 4pm to check in and then had to check out by 10am unless approved for a late checkout day-of (which extended to 1pm for an additional $60)…with the price we paid and the 4 hours we drove to get there, it just would’ve been nice to have at least a full 24 hours at the cabin. Other than that, we loved the hot tub, the view, the linens, THE SHOWER (amazing), the easy cleanup required before checkout, and the overall coziness of the cabin. We had such a great experience overall and would totally stay here again if we had more time to make it worth the drive and checkin/checkout times!! Thank you to the host for keeping your cabin so clean and beautifully decorated!
