Impressive Destination Spot

The property was a wonderful space with plenty of room to house 10 adults and a dog. With plenty of space available, a large and well stocked kitchen, and a fantastic location close to everything you could want to do in Big Bear, I can't recommend this place enough.

Worth it!

9 of us met for a last minute family trip. We had an amazing time. Our only complaint was that our trip was too short. We had a lot of fun playing air hocky, shuffleboard/bowling and sitting around the firepit. There's enough room and seating throughout the house to sit together or break up into smaller groups. The beds are comfy and the house is adorable. It's also pretty convenient to everything. The last thing I'll share is that the property management team is awesome - super responsive, helpful and friendly. Just a tip: If you arrive when it's dark like we did, have a flashlight handy as the street is really dark, the address is hard to see and the pavers are a little uneven. If we ever go back to big bear I will definitely try to book here again.
