About this property

BigBear-Rental A Family & Friends Getaway with Hot Tub, EV Charger, Wifi

Perfect for large families or groups, this single-story split floor plan home offers a cozy farmhouse vibe with 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a game room featuring built-in double bunk beds (Dbl size). Enjoy a private cedar-fenced yard with jetted spa, WiFi, kid & pet-friendly spaces, parking for 5 cars, and a Level 2 EV charger. Located on a maintained, plowed road just minutes from all Big Bear Mountain adventures—ideal year-round for family fun or adult getaways.

You’ll have sole access to the home and property. If you’re concerned about winter driving or parking, this is an ideal location. The house sits on a county-maintained, plowed road and is right on the Big Bear Red Line, with a free trolley stop just across the street and three houses down. The Red Line runs every 30 minutes between The Village, Stater Bros., Erwin Lake, and more—making it easy to leave the cars parked at the house as you go to any of these places: Groceries and essentials are close by (Stater Bros, Dollar Store, Vons ~4.6–4.7 mi). Snow Summit, Bear Mountain Ski Resort, Bear Mountain Golf Course, Alpine Zoo, and Bear Valley Community Hospital are all within ~5–6.5 miles, with The Village just 7 miles away.

You’ll enjoy easy, convenient access from the moment you arrive. Parking is right by the front door, so there’s no trekking through slippery snow or steep streets. The path from parking to the house is flat and step-free. Inside, you have full access to the entire home. The kitchen is fully stocked for up to 10 guests, with place settings, custom engraved wine glasses, a wide selection of spices, and appliances including a gas range, microwave, blender, mixer, rice cooker, large crock pot, and all necessary mixing bowls, measuring cups and spoons, pots and pans. Premium laminated flooring makes it easy to move around, with carpet only in the bedrooms—ideal for guests using assisted walking devices. Out the back, a small half-step leads onto the deck, which offers the best outdoor living with a large table and chairs, a relaxing warm fire table, and a propane BBQ grill. A larger step down from the deck leads to a spacious paver area with the jetted hot tub.

We’re not in the immediate area, so we provide everything you need to enjoy your stay without interruptions. Check-in is convenient, self-guided, and uninterrupted. Guests are verified at check-in using external security cameras to confirm headcount, ensuring a smooth and secure arrival.

We’re always available via messaging or phone and maintain a very high response rate. Our guest portal and website provide manuals, quick answers to common questions, and tips like how to get the best seat with the hot tub jet controls.

Our BigBear-Rental site also offers more details about the house and local resources—including events, activities, restaurants, menus, and live weather, traffic, and snow conditions—so you can plan your stay effortlessly.

While you’re relaxing and recharging with us, let your car take a rest and recharge on us! We offer easy parking for up to 5 vehicles on our lot, in front of the house, including one Level 2 EV charger with a J1772 connector, this is compatible with most non-Tesla EVs. Tesla owners can use their included J1772 → Tesla adapter it's usually in the Tesla's glovebox or trunk—just remember to remove it before checkout. You wouldn't want to be stuck without it.

Cool house in Big Bear

We had a great time at this house during our latest stay in Big Bear. It matched the description perfectly and the property manager/owner was kind, fast and helpful when we needed her during our stay. The cabin was very cool temperature wise which is a plus in the mountains. Thank you for a pleasant stay, we look forward to returning.

Great trip!

If you are looking for a kid/ family friendly location, this is it! The house is adorable and the kid room kept our kids occupied when it was too cold to be outside. The property manager/ owner of the house was very kind and always available. When we ended up getting stuck due to weather they extended our stay so we wouldn’t be out, trying to figure out what to do with our young kids. Would highly recommend!

Perfect for a family with little ones!

We stayed in this cabin for our first family trip to big bear! We had three 5 year olds and a 6 month old. This was the perfect place for them, beds for everyone and tons of games to keep them busy. We came prepared with snow clothes for the kids but they actually had snow gear you could borrow if needed. That’s so thoughtful! Check in and check out was easy peasy. We went to explore the downtown area and it wasn’t too far of a drive at all. Definitely recommend!

Family vacation

The people we rented from were easy to contact when we needed something. They had all toiletries available which was nice so we didn't have to travel with them or purchase them. The house was very nice and clean. The only issue we had was that you can't be in the hot tub after 10 pm. We were gone all day and by the time we got back to the house it was too late to get in plus it was too hot to get in it during the day.

Super cute home, but plumbing and heating systems need an upgrade

Pros - the house was super cute, the property owner was easy to reach, very nice and easy to work with, the kids playroom and all the games provided were AWESOME! Cons - a slight plumbing problem (the guest bath had a constant drip) and the sounds of the heating system kept a few of our guests awake throughout the night. Those who slept in the front bedrooms had to keep their doors open, so the sounds of the dripping bathtub and the heater kept them awake. They tried closing the door the second night, but their rooms got cold as the heat is primarily in the hallways and in the main living areas. Even with the cons above, we all still had a great time and the kids room was the place where we all loved to congregate and bond.

Family friendly stay

This property is great for young children. Our kids (ranging from 2-10) LOVED the playroom and bunk beds. It kept them very entertained. House was clean. Bathrooms have been updated. The communication I had with owner was responsive-no issues. If I had to offer anything constructive I would note that for large parties there was not enough towels, hand towels etc no problem for us because we brought our own. We like to eat so we felt there were some essentials missing- mixing and serving bowls (salads, sides etc) just comforts we enjoy and wish we had. The other thing is that there are outdoor cameras front and back. Totally understand the need for an owner to have but I felt a bit uncomfortable having the cameras in the back where we were hanging out-it was uncomfortable for me personally. I did rent knowing there were cameras. Overall great family place!!

We would absolutely recommend to families and large groups.

We had a great visit to Big Bear! The place was very clean and smelled great when we checked in. Felt like staying in a huge hotel. Check in was simple and we were given an extra hour at check out. The host was very easy to communicate with and very responsive. The house was well stocked and well taken care off. We were left a goodie basket of snacks, oatmeal, waters, hot chocolate, coffee and mixings and wine. Fully stocked kitchen, cable tv, board games and kids toys. Our kids had the best time and can’t wait to return here! We enjoyed the spa and fire pit very much and so grateful for the experience.

LOVE IT!

We stayed here for a short get away with the family and we loved it. It is an older home but it’s very well kept and you can tell they’ve been doing upgrades. We don’t ever expect a home to be perfectly put together especially as a rental but this exceeded our expectation. The kids LOVED the bunk/game room, the house felt very cozy for us and I feel like they had every small appliance our ‘speciality item’ we needed and more. We have family that lives close by that came over for dinner and there was plenty of space with the extra table and chairs provided. I love the shabby/farmhouse decor too. The house is off a main road but is tucked back. My 2 and 5 year old had a great time playing outside with no issues. It’s close to downtown and the groceries were convenient. The host is very gracious and responsive. We’ll be back for sure.

Inaccurate listing

Don’t just rely on reviews, do your own homework! This is the lesson we learned. 1. sqft is missing from the listing. Zillow shows 1,540 sqft which is much smaller than other 4 bedrooms rentals. Living room, kitchen and two guest bedrooms are very small. The dining table can only accommodate 6 people. The floor plan is weird. 2. The house is very close to Greenspot Blvd (highway 38). We can hear traffic noises in the late night and early morning. 3. The location is in Sugarloaf. It can take about 30mins to drive to major grocery stores like Vons when traffic is bad. 4. The house rules are NOT kid friendly. No jumping on the bed. No food or drinks in the game room. 5. Guest bedrooms can be really cold in the night. The heat can not go into those rooms as the space heater is in the living room. Even tried the tips from host by keeping bedroom doors open, it does not help much. 6.There are chips in the bathtub (not showing in the picture) which can use some upgrades.

About the host

Hosted by Mandy Rami and Darla Wood

Host profile image
My family and I live in Southern California and love traveling to Big Bear. We decided to get a home away from home in the area but feared it sitting empty in the woods for too many days in a row. We heard about VRBO and thought that would be a great way to share our cozy place with others that are visiting and keep the home from being vacant. We are not professional renters, we are not a hotel, we are full time employed working individuals that just hope your group can love our place as much as we do! We try to make updates and improvements every time we stay and think of something that could make it better. We also know how hard traveling with kids is, so we tried to stock the place with all the amenities a family with children need when out of town and all the cleanliness and modernization of a hotel.

Why they chose this property

We chose this place because of the large lot, location being close to everything but not too close to get stuck in the weekend traffic, and for the large home. We like to travel with multiple families and really wanted a place that could comfortably accommodate groups over 10 and have things to keep the kids busy while the adults hung out. We feel this place is PERFECT for that. Room to park up to 6 cars, room to comfortably sleep 13 people and lots of fun upgrades for kids and adult! Come enjoy the hot tub and level 2 EV charger.

What makes this property unique

We really try to make our place special with a welcome gift and wine upon arrival, a fully stocked kitchen, amenities for kids, a game room, bikes to ride for all ages, outdoor games, and the most comfortable sheets on the most comfortable pillow top beds.
