About this property

Pinecone Cabin, Summer Special

PLEASE NOTE: MINIMUM AGE TO RENT PINECONE CABIN IS 25.

SUMMER SPECIAL: Buy 2 nights and get your THIRD night FREE!** (Holidays Excluded)

Charming 2 bedroom cabin (queen bed in downstairs bedroom, king bed in loft) 1 bathroom with toilet & shower. Big front patio with BBQ, outdoor dining set, gas fire pit and heat lamp. Back yard completely fenced and very private for hot tubbing.

Close to the heart of Big Bear Lake. Scenic walk to the Village (1.7 miles) where you can go wine tasting, try the local breweries, splurge on fine dining or a variety of Mom & Pop eateries, catch a movie, see a concert and shop for all tastes - collectibles, casual and high end clothing, unique gifts, jewelry and much more. The Alpine Slide, tubing and marina are also just a walk away.

Other places that are close and FUN are Snow Summit (3.5 miles), Bear Mountain (5.2 miles), the golf course, Moonridge Zoo (4.2 miles) and tons of hiking trails. You can also book a zipline tour!

We love the cabin feel with all the wood. We enjoy sitting out on the front deck having coffee and listening to the quiet. We love how close to everything it is.

We had a great stay at the pinecone cabin. Check in was easy, and the cabin is in a central location, great for getting anywhere around the city or lake. Yard was great for our dogs and the driveway is paved for easy access to the property.

Cozy Spring Cabin Getaway in Big Bear Lake We had such a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin in Big Bear Lake! It was the perfect getaway for us (2 adults and our puppy), and honestly, it could comfortably fit up to 4 people.The cabin had everything we needed — the kitchen was fully stocked, making it easy to cook meals, and we especially loved using the grill. The indoor fireplace made the space feel extra warm and inviting, and there was even a heater for those colder moments.One of our favorite parts was the backyard, which was perfect for our puppy to run around and enjoy. The neighborhood was quiet, peaceful, and very walkable, with super friendly neighbors that made us feel right at home.The location was also a huge plus — just a short distance to the village, shops, and Bear Marina, so everything was easily accessible.The host was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay, which we really appreciated.Overall, we had an amazing experience and would definitely recommend this cabin. We’d absolutely stay here again.

Absolutely adorable cabin located in a really great area. Our host Nancy was incredibly flexible as we had to change our dates. She was on-top of everything, very communicative and just an all-around great host. We would love to come back some day and we would definitely stay at Pinecone cabin again.

We enjoyed ourselves so much in Big Bear and found the cabin so cute and cozy! We would rebook for sure! Just something’s to note: It took us a little bit to realize the WiFi password was in the binder, the shower didn’t seem like it had been cleaned, it could be stained - thankfully we brought shower shoes, the solar lights didn’t work in the backyard - so it was dark - thankfully we brought a flashlight, and the coffee makers were both dirty/had water scale.

We had a wonderful stay overall!Highlights: We loved the cozy wood‑burning fireplace and the amazing jacuzzi. The location was perfect—close to both the town and the lake. The heater kept the cabin warm, the Keurig worked great, and Nancy was so kind and flexible with our arrival time, which we really appreciated.A few small notes for future travelers: The bathroom is quite small if you're sharing it with four people, and the fan doesn’t work. The kitchen could use some standard‑size bowls—we found ourselves eating cereal and salads out of oversized, mismatched ones—so you might want to bring a few if that matters to you. The shower also has very low water pressure.Before our trip, I couldn’t confirm whether the cabin had a hair dryer, pasta strainer, or blender, so I packed my own. It turns out the cabin has all three!

Peaceful Mountain Retreat

As a regular VRBO client, I've come to find what really sets most properties apart is how they're maintained and managed. Nancy is an absolutely fantastic host and the easy communication with her prior to our stay, and her considerate check-in during the stay made all the difference. The cabin itself is wonderful, of course. Many amenities and small touches that really made us feel welcome. But it was truly the exceptional service from our host that impressed us. We will be back for sure!
