                        We enjoyed 4 nights in this wonderful cabin- incredibly clean, well decorated and well appointed. There was plenty of space for the kids, and plenty to do when we weren't skiing- lots of board games, dvd's and two TV's. Overall, this is a great cabin and Laura made the whole process of booking and checking in totally easy, and was generous in allowing us to check out late on our final day. We've stayed in many cabins in Big Bear over the years and this was surely one of the best!

                        Excellent Big Bear Cabin!!!.... If you are looking for a beautiful cabin, don't go any further! Everything was just as described and more. Very clean and well equipped home. It has all you would need and more. The owner goes over and beyond with providing 1st class accommodations. Our family had a wonderful weekend...sledding, snow play and a cozy warm fireplace. You will feel like your at home and never want to leave. Already planning for our next stay :) Laura the owner is very sweet and attentive. Anything you need she is a text or phone call away!

                        I recently stayed at this cabin and it was exactly as described by the owner. Actually, it was better!! The cabin is Beautiful and very clean. I loved the fire place and all the extras the owner included. There were board games, books, puzzles, and video games. The kitchen came equipped with every appliance and utensil you could think of. There were glasses for drinks and a gas BBQ ready for use. Extra pillows and blankets in the closet. I loved the bear decor throughout the cabin. The location was perfect. Close enough to all the attractions, but far enough from the noise and crowds. I loved it here and definitely planning on staying again in the future. The owner was also very sweet and responsive to my questions.

                        It was our first vacation in Big Bear. The condo was awsome. It was very clean and comfortable. We like the interior in it, it was very beautiful. There were everything that made us to feel that we were at home. We are planning our next vacation only the same condo. We will miss that condo.

                        We had a wonderful ski weekend at Kanodia Lodge! The cabin was exactly as advertised - the listing and pictures were accurate; if anything, the cabin looked better in person. The owners have thought of everything to make the stay comfortable and it feels like you are visiting a friend's home rather than a vacation rental. 15 minute drive from the cabin to Snow Summit/Bear Mountain, 40 minutes to Snow Valley. The owner is very responsive and helpful - we'll definitely stay here again.

                        Hello Laura! Thanks for a wonderful stay. We loved the bright, cheerful sunlight streaming in every day. You have a fantastic home in the woods. Next time we would like to visit during mountain biking season – great trails all around. Our favorite spot in town for lunch/dinner is Murrey’s Irish Tavern – outstanding food and extremely casual. Kids under 21 out by 8 pm – great spot!! Thanks Laura for a super cool holiday from the Miami clan.

                        We are a family with two small children, ages 4 and 2-and-a-half. This home is beautiful, nice location on a quiet street, and the sledding hill was great (out the front door, turn left, and up a few houses). While we didn't take advantage of it in the snow, there seems to be some good hiking through the woods up that way as well. Very comfortable, and I would highly recommend it as it really has everything you need. Owners were easy to deal with, and I would definitely stay here again.

                        Our family of 5 enjoyed our recent stay at Kanodia Lodge. The house was clean, comfy and well furnished. Having a garage to park our car in was a great bonus, especially when unloading items during the winter!! We have 3 children under the age of 6 and they were quite content in the home. Our oldest liked to go outside to play in the snow. The sledding area was just a short walk up the street. The hill was a bit intimidating for our young kids but probably great for older kids! We had plenty of room in the house and never felt cramped. The kids also loved the bunk beds!! The kitchen was great to cook in. Having the laundry area inside the house was another bonus. The washer and dryer seemed to be large capacity and worked very well. All in all, house was great and fit our needs! The reason I did not rate this home "excelllent" was due to a few quirks with the cleaning service. There was trash left behind from the renter before us, coffe pot was dirty, no sponges available for washing dishes and dishes in pantry were stilll wet from being washed. The owner, Laura, apologized and spoke with the cleaning service. Being that we stayed during a busy Holiday time and their regular cleaning person was ill, things were missed. Also, the home is quite a ways from the center of town. If you need to run out to get something, this can be quite challenging during the winter. Especially when you have a young child get sick during the night!!

                        Owner response: Hi Emily! Thanks for much for your review! As private owners we work diligently to provide first class accommodations for our guests, so receiving our first 4 star review was hard, but we thank you for the honest feedback! Having the normal cleaning staff ill during the busiest season did not help and you should expect the cabin to be perfect upon arrival – no exceptions. I was truly grateful that you contacted me immediately to let me know about the small cleaning issues you noticed so we could take action right away. We don’t provide sponges (they can be unsanitary since they breed bacteria) but in the fully stocked kitchen we provide lots of extra wash clothes that guests use to wash dishes. The cabin is located 7 miles from the Village (about 4 miles from the major grocery stores), however we’re sorry you didn’t try Easy’s General Store which is less than 1 mile from the house – they carry all the basics, including medicine :). Thank you again for all your honest and candid feedback!

                      Owner info

                      Year Purchased: 2002

                      About the owner: We're a family from Orange County, CA who fell in love with Big Bear and decided to buy this cabin. After sharing it with friends and family we converted it to a rental so others could enjoy all that Big Bear has to offer. We pride ourselves on offering a well maintained, clean, relaxing place for guests to unwind and reconnect with loved ones. Enjoy your time at Kanodia Lodge and where ever you wander in the Big Bear Valley. It truly is a special destination!

                      Why the Owner Chose Private Homes:
                      Big Bear is a magical destination. So close to everything yet a world away from the hustle & bustle of every day life. Spending time in the mountains is so rejuvenating. Crystal blue skies, crisp clean air & tons of outdoor activities make Big Bear the place to go!

                      The Unique Benefits at this House:
                      Quiet, serene, private, first class, clean, all the comforts of home. The location of our cabin is perfect. Close to town but far enough away to enjoy pure peace only time in the mountains can offer. Guests often arrive, fall in love with the cabin and never leave during their vacation! The most incredible sledding hill is a 1 minute walk away, there's a park & skate park just down the street ... and even a general store for your basic shopping needs. If you're truly looking to get away from it all, you've found the perfect place!
