Welcome to your charming, secluded cabin. This cabin is very clean, with new central heating, appliances, flooring, drywall, paint, refinished decks, washer/dryer, sheets/bedding and flat screen TV's with cable, movie channels and Netflix. We choose this cabin because of the backyard sledding and access to national forest hiking trails. You do not have to drive anywhere to enjoy beautiful big bear pines and mountain views If you are the adventurous type the national forest trail head is also located within viewing distance of the back yard and has a family friendly trail for hiking, biking or cross country skiing. We are 1.5 miles from Bear Mountain resort and the Moonridge zoo. The quaint mountain village in big bear is only a couple miles away with all the dinning and shopping you could ever want,
The cabin is located near the end of a dead end street, with very few other rentals around. You will not have to worry about up all night long, loud neighbors. Most of the houses close by are non rented personal vacation homes.

We get lots of afternoon sun and always have great forested views of the snow play area below the house and the trees on the mountain across from the cabin.

Inside the cabin is very clean with many new amenities. Downstairs has one bedroom/den with a couch bed, across the hallway is a full bath with stacked washer and dryer.

Kitchen is small but works well and opens to dinning room and living room. Everything you might need is stocked in the kitchen, silverware, pots, pans, plates, cups, popcorn maker, coffee maker, coffee mugs, coffee, knifes, trash bags, microwave, toaster, sponges, kitchen towels, serving spoons and forks.

The living room has one couch and one love seat, both microfiber and facing our gas assisted fireplace and Samsung flat screen TV, with charter cable and DVR.

Upstairs we have two large bedrooms and a bathroom. Master bedroom has one queen bed with new sheets and bedding, dresser, love seat and coffee table for watching cable or movies, and a large closet.

Guest Bedroom has one queen bed and a bunk/trundle combo with two twins and a full. All bedding and sheets are clean and new. Also some kids books, and games in this guest bedroom.

All linens towels, hand towels, wash clothes, kitchen towels, cleaning rags, sheets, blankets are provided and new.

                    We stayed here for 10 days over spring break this year and had a great time. The cabin had plenty of room for our large family (2 adults and 4 kids). Everyone had a comfortable bed, the kitchen was fully functional, there were plenty of clean linens, a lot of hot water, and the washer and dryer were perfect. The outdoor grill was also great, and Jesse made sure that everything was taken care of. The cabin is literally 3 minutes from Bear Mountain and 6 minutes from the Village. Supermarkets are a couple of minutes away as well. There is a great dry creek (seasonal I am guessing) for the kids to play in and woods for them to explore right out the back of the home. I highly recommend this place and will be back.

                    The description was spot-on regarding the location, appearance and amenities. The rental was clean and well-maintained. The owner was very easy to deal with. I would recommend this rental to a group of our size (6-8.) The only things missing that could make this an 'excellent' rating would be: more comfortable beds, a dishwasher and t.v's in every bedroom.It would've been nice to have the Game-Cube video gaming connected to a t.v. in the bunk-room, but it served its purpose and kept the boys happy as clams while we cooked or had adult time. But.....seeing how this is a vacation home-you really don't want to spend too much time inside anyway. My boys are age 7, 11 and 14. We also took my active-senior Dad. Although there are a few steps to get in the house and go down the side to get to sledding, it was non-challenging and almost a mute point. The house decorations were simple which made for no worry of accidents and left plenty of room for us to unload all of our 'stuff.' I found it very nice that the bathrooms had shampoos and brand new towels-plenty of them for all of us! It snowed 1 1/2 feet one of the 3 nights we stayed-it was a relief that the owners have a local man that comes to plow the driveway burm away that the city plow leaves. He also blows all of the snow away from the steps between the driveway to the house. Everything was sooo simple. I didn't even have to call to find out who to contact-it was done. And I didn't have to pay for it! This alone, almost made me rate a 5-star. HUGE benefit that a prior rental didn't do for us. I would definitely like to come back to this rental again for sledding. I have never found a better home that accommodates the whole family with the type of hills, sledding. My youngest wasn't intimidated and my oldest wasn't bored. It was GREAT! My boys are ready to try snowboarding, I think if we stay here again, it is conveniently close to Bear Mountain that we may try some in/out activities now that we know the snow plow situation is soo stress free. The rate was very reasonable for the type of accommodations-very pleased. Our security deposit was refunded the very next day after check-out, I didn't even have to inquire. Very respectful and courteous-Thank you!

                    I just returned from this cabin and my family and I had a wonderful stay. My priority for the trip was to have the ability to play in the snow without leaving the property. I have two small kids, and did not want the hassle. This cabin is PERFECT. The backyard is up against a good sized hill, and a national forest. The area is private, full of sledding opportunities, and absolutely beautiful. The cabin was equipped with sleds and shovels as well. The cabin itself was clean, well-stocked, and we enjoyed the full sized kitchen appliances (no "rustic" cooking here). We cooked every meal and it was just like being at home. Literally all you have to bring is food. Note there is no dishwasher. The fireplace was warm and the heater was excellent. Finally, when I did have a few questions, the owner answered my phone calls and walked me through what I needed. Outstanding service. Where to rent totally depends on your goals. If you have a family with kids, or just don't want to leave your cabin for the duration of your stay, this is the place. We will rent here again for sure.

                    We had great snow Friday evening and were required to have chains the whole weekend. It was great snow around the house and we could walk to the trail down below the house (about 100 yards) and Bear Mountain Ski resort (about 1 mile). We were sledding fromt he house down to the bottom. The house was clean like ours and we were able to keep it that way. The trash site was just back down to the main road. Our Church was only 3 miles away. Can't think we were mssing anything. We plan to come back. My family of 7 adults and 3 children were comfy in our beds. Can't wait to go back and explore further up the trails.

                    We just got back last night from 5 days at this wonderful cabin. We wanted for nothing (except a king-sized bed). I can't say enough good things about how clean and modern everything was. All new appliances, and everything bright and fresh. The street is quiet and beautiful. The owners are really helpful and very considerate of their guests. They left a box of chocolates and 2 bottles of Martinelli's for our arrival! We won't look for other cabins in Big Bear unless we have more people and need another one. The teenage girls had their own room downstairs where they could close the door and play guitars and go on their computers with the excellent wifi. They also enjoyed coming into the living room to watch movies by the fire with my husband and I. One of the upstairs bedrooms has enough beds for 5 teenagers, so the 3 we brought had lots of space for bedtime too! Best of all they loved going out in the back yard and sledding down the hills. My little dog was in heaven. Who knew he was a snow dog? I loved taking him for walks after dark under all those stars in the crisp quite mountain air. It was so nice not to have to bring ANYTHING but groceries. I have stayed in places where we had to make our own beds when we got there. Seems like a small thing, but you are tired after traveling and on vacation after all. This cabin has everything for you. Not just made beds. Fluffy white towels and soaps and shampoo. Upper Moonridge is my favorite spot in Big Bear. Very secluded yet right at the bottom of the hill are good shopping centers. The hill this cabin is on had snow longer than lots of the other streets. The altitude and direction of the sun gave us many days of snow long after it was gone elsewhere. I can't wait to go back! I feel so lucky to have found this cabin. I have paid a lot more for a lot less. Good experiences with VRBO.

                    We had a great time at your cabin. We had everything that we needed. The weather was beautiful and we had a wonderful Thanksgiving in the mountains. Hiking trails were very convenient and we enjoyed the zoo nearby, as well. We saw the Tree Lighting Ceremony in The Village which was a short drive away. We were able to use the internet and watch movies during our downtime. Would love to return. Great location.

                    An awesome retreat with great views. If you're looking to get off the beaten path for a bit, this is the place to do it. The house has plenty of space as is stocked with everything you'll need. You're close enough and far away enough from town and you're right on a trail head of you want to hike. Highly recommend!!

                  Owner info

                  Year Purchased: 2011

                  About the owner: We are a family of Eight. My wife Fern and I have 4 children, CC, Elexa, Aubrie, and Jackson. We also usually bring Grandma Deena and our Dog Bodhi anywhere we go.

                  Why the Owner Chose Bear Mountain:
                  My mother has been bringing me to Big Bear since I was a kid, I learned to snow board here and have always loved the fun and charm of Big Bear. In recent years my wife and children have also been visiting Big Bear and we have decided that as a family this is our favorite vacation destination. We chose this cabin because of the awesome setting and backyard. We wanted a cabin that had a destination we could walk to because on our vacations we do not want to have to drive. This cabin was our perfect answer. With snow play, sledding, and serious hiking, we fell in love instantly. We paid more to have these luxuries in our backyard, but we decided that it would pay off in the years to come, knowing that our children would have the extra experiences this cabin has to offer. We also happened to love the cabin itself, which was a big bonus. It is so clean and nice inside, it just feels like a vacation.

                  The Unique Benefits at this Cabin:
                  Our property is so cool, because it fits our whole family, has sledding, snow play and hiking in the back yard. The cabin is also very nice and clean with new carpet, wood floors, drywall and many other things I have already told you about. My Mom takes a daily hike up the canyon with the dogs, this is one of her favorite parts of staying at the cabin. The kids ask to go play in the snow all morning, and I just love to relax in front of the TV, fireplace or on the deck.
