The home was very clean and had many fun options of games to play for my family. It was very quiet and close to all the things we did during our stay.

Wonderful Cabin w/Lots of Extras

I was extremely pleased with this cabin. My family (wife, son, and dog) really enjoyed our stay. There was plenty to do, and the property was in excellent condition. Lot's of extra (kitchen was stocked with everything you could need...just bring your food), the basement was great (my son loved it), and the fenced in yard gave my dog plenty of room to roam.

Cute cabin for a small family

This cabin was the perfect size for our small family. The beds were comfortable, and the cabin was a great place to chill and sleep. We checked out the game rooms but didn't spend too much time in there as our child was actually more interested in the games closet in the second bedroom. The hot tub was a nice amenity, and it feels pretty private due to the cabin being at the end of the street. The fireplace stove was a real treat and kept the cabin super warm! Would definitely recommend this cabin to others looking for a refreshing stay in BB.

Amazing experience

This place has everything. The pictures don't do it justice. I have been going to Big Bear for over 30years and this place has been the best so far. Lots of games and entertainment. The kitchen has everything needed to have a cozy home cooked meal.

Amazing Alpine Retreat

The cabin had everything you need and more. The kitchen was fully stocked with pots/pans/utensils. We cooked all off our meals there. The outdoor seating was great for our summer getaway. The kids loved the electronics and the board games alike. I would definitely stay here again. The cabin is walking distance to the shops on Moonridge Road but since it was pretty warm during our stay we did not make the trek but I always like a place with some walkability.

Kids loved it

The kids loved it. The game room where they discovered the WII was awesome. House was a perfect size for us. The location was nice. The hot tub was a winner. My only comments would be to have a K-cup coffee maker. On the patio my dog got spots covered in we think tree sap so she has hard sticky patches on her hair Maybe a sign to warn. I recommend to others who want more seclusion. Also very nice kitchen and bathrooms. highly recommend.

Great family get away

Perfect quiet location for a small family get away. Our daughter enjoyed the game room and dogs loved exploring the back yards the location was the perfect distance from town and still give the quiet mountain ambiance we were looking for. Loved the layout of the home.

Great getaway

This place has everything and is very quiet. The dogs hated "going" on the yard due to nothing but pine needles and weeds, though. Overall I highly recommend.
