Tranquil and peaceful home right on the lake

I love this house so much. The property is beautiful with huge trees and a big grassy front yard. It has views from every window and is just a comfortable and cozy place.

Had a wonderful stay at Stillwater Cove. The cabin was charming, comfortable, and well-kept. The back porch, backyard, & lake views were fantastic! Location to town was great. Cool Cabins was responsive & made sure the cabin was clean & well-appointed with details that made settling in easy. Only small notes are the queen guest room bed is very firm &, from the pictures, I thought the living space was a bit bigger. Overall, a wonderful place. I would definitely rent again when in the area.

Great dog friendly cabin

The view, the cabin , the location… all made for a great trip. The fenced in dog friendly yard was amazing for our dogs. Sitting out on the deck at night playing games was relaxing. Great restaurants nearby. Didn't cook in kitchen but made use of the bbq. Will be returning to this cabin again!

Off Season stay at a beautiful cabin

We had a great stay on Big Bear lake. The Dogs loved the fenced in yard, the Kitchen had everything and the fireplace came in handy on those chilly nights. Would highly recommend.

Stillwater Cove Lakefront

It was a wonderful little cabin. The kitchen was well stocked and very clean. The views are just beautiful. The large fireplace in the cozy family-room was wonderful. We plan on renting the exact same little cabin on our next visit. The check-in and check-out was really well done.

We had so much fun staying at the Stillwater Cove Lakefront cabin. Beautiful view of the lake! Cabin has its own dock for fishing or evenings sitting on the lake. Cabin was clean with a beautiful kitchen space. We will definitely be staying here again.

Amazing Place to Relax and Regenerate

I went to Stillwater Cove Lakefront by myself to regenerate and recharge, away from the many stressors in my life right now. My lupus is very active right now and I needed a few days alone so my body could get some relief. Being so close to the lake so I could take easy strolls along the shore was just what I needed, since fatigue is an huge issue right now. And being able to see the lake from the cabin windows refreshed my soul. I will definitely be using this cabin again. A massive thank you to the owners for making their home so comfortable and sharing it with others.

The cabin was great. Well equipped. We stayed for 10 days. Considering this was dog friendly one of the gates did not lock so we had to rig it. The master bed was extremely soft but the other bedroom was perfect.

The view of the lake is beautiful. The fully-fenced yard is so nice. Our little 10 lb. dog is small, so could have gotten under in a few places, but we just always went with him. He loved the lawns and trees and breezes. The cabin is charming on the outside. Reminded those of us who have been coming to BBL for a long time of the cabins of old, with updates, of course :). The pictures of the interiors are light and bright, but in reality it is very dark inside, mostly because the lighting fixtures and lamps are old and some broken, and with low-wattage bulbs. That’s an easy fix. The Bedroom 2 is dark and cave-like and has no nightstands next to the bed. These few things keep me from giving it 5 stars.

Hi Vicki! Thank you for your thoughtful review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the beautiful lake views, fully fenced yard, and charming cabin feel. It’s wonderful to hear your pup enjoyed the outdoor space too! We appreciate your feedback regarding the interior lighting and Bedroom 2 setup. We’ll be sure to share your comments about the lighting fixtures, brightness, and nightstands with the homeowner for review. Thank you again for your helpful feedback, and we hope to host you again soon!

Georgous Vintage Cabin

We had the most amazing stay at this cabin. The location was hands down the most relaxing place we have stayed at up in Big Bear. The cabin was clean,warm & cozy. It had everthing we needed . We had our dogs and they loved the fenced garden , we all enjoyed lazy afternoons out on the deck watching the lake . We rented a pontoon boat from the marina close by , that was a great day out . Big Bear never disapoints when we come up every year in October . Thank you Big Bear Cool Cabins for another great stay!

This cabin was amazing for a long weekend trip. The view out to the lake and around the house was beautiful and it was very quiet and peaceful. We brought our dog and he loved running around in the yard and walking down to the lake. Beware if you have small dogs they may be able to get out under the fence in a few areas. Everything in the house worked well, the beds were very cozy, and the kitchen had everything we needed.
