Excellent Accommodations

We booked this cabin at the last minute and were surprisingly pleased with our choice. The cabin was clean, the kitchen was well stocked with cookware, utensils and spices, etc., and the queen sized bed was very comfortable. It's in a great location, very close to all ski runs and the central Big Bear shopping District. Also just down the road from Boulder Bay Park where we went fishing. One of the best features of the cabin was the jacuzzi, which was clean, easy to operate; and had strong relaxing jets. A great place to unwind at the end of the day. There were also 2 TV's with a wide selection of entertainment apps and many cable TV stations. We would definitely stay here again!

Great getaway

Loved the cabin. It was perfect and the hot tub was even better on a cool night. We went here for my fiancés birthday. We stayed 3 nights and really enjoyed our stay. It was easy to check into our cabin and access the WiFi and other amenities. All around we really enjoyed our stay and we will be back again.

Perfect little cabin

Everything you need and more. Great bed, fireplace, bbq, hot tub and a giant fully fenced yard for my dog. Outdoor gas heaters on the patio. A little close to Big Bear Blvd but that was very minor.

Weekend getaway

Everything was as described. Nice,cozy and everything was nearby.The only thing that was disappointing was the spa. We were looking forward to using it but it looked dirty and had an odd smell. We did not get to use the spa. Other than that we enjoyed our weekend getaway.

YES, sorry I didn't text you guys yet and let you know. We're back home now!. We had a beautiful weekend at the cottage and we left our comments in the guest book on the table! Everything worked out great the whole weekend and we had a beautiful time for our fifth anniversary. I do recommend for the owner to get themselves a new spa cover. Unfortunately, when we got there, it was broke and cracked and it looked like maybe something got into the spa. Aside from that we had no issues with our weekend. It was a beautiful time! Thank you again and we will be back to stay with the properties at some point. The Bangerts

Cabin has a nice outdoor deck area needing some paint and repairs. Deck is a little crowded with too many seating areas for a place that accomodates only 2 persons. Don't know why all cabins seem to have the worst beds in them, possibly they are rejects from owners homes? Best part is the proximity to the Mexican restaurant, which makes a fabulous grilled whole talapia and the brewery with decent beers. It was a great time in Big Bear not very crowded and the weather was beautiful.

Good could be better. Could be worse.

It was a good stay nonetheless. But simple things could make it great. The first thing to mind is the bed. That is the most uncomfortable bed ever, I had to sleep on the couch the second night. The washer smelled like mold. But I have never been so happy to come home to my bed. Other than that it's a cabin can't expect to much.

Cool Cabins, We would like to share that your staff were very accommodating when presented with our problems that we found at the cabin we stayed in. Which were, location of the window crank to open the windows, back porch light (that was out), since we couldn't open the windows, a extra fan was delivered, and the missing chain to turn on the ceiling fan was replaced. The one thing that they couldn't fix was the blind in the kitchen couldn't be raised due to it missing the cord to adjust it. The one thing we came across after we connected the staff was the shower knob was really hard to turn on and off. Things that we think should be included in the information about staying in the cabin are, add how to operate the hot tub, where the location of the keys and window crank are. We didn't know these things and would've been helpful right at the beginning of our stay. We also believe that people that stay at the cabin should be able to throw away their trash in a garage can at the cabin and then a staff member can take it to the dumping place. The location was great, and the neighborhood was quiet. Thank you for your time and hospitality.
