Church Family Trip

We had a wonderful stay at the Lakeview cabin. The location is great. We had morning walks by the lake and enjoyed the view. The cabin is clean and well equipped with the right necessities. The check-in and check-out process was very smooth. Excellent communication with the concierge via text messages. Overall it was a great experience and we would love to be back again in the future.

The cabin we stayed in was very close to the lake and the view was amazing. Everything was within a couple of driving miles. I had to clear all the snow from my porch using a snow shovel. It was a lot of work! Although all the linen was amazingly clean, the carpets and shower curtains need replacement. Overall, it was a great family trip. I recommend it!

Gross and dirty

We were afraid to walk on the nasty floors. Kitchen smelled gross and the vinyl was all damaged and lifting up in kitchen cobwebs all over beds. I found pieces of wood under my pillows and overall would not stay here again. The couches were gross had to lay blankets over them to sit down. Disappointing. The location and view was the only nice part.

Beautiful Lake View Cabin

My family and I rented this cabin while in Big Bear for the Spartan Race. The view and location is excellent! 5 minutes from The Village area. The cabin was cozy and had all we needed for our 2 night stay. We especially enjoyed having breakfast outside on the deck with all the additional seating it has to offer. We enjoyed ping pong, volleyball and the picnic tables in the common area too. Paddles/ball were provided which is a nice plus. We we're hoping to enjoy the hot tub but it had been drained (along with the pool which we didn't intend on using in May)...no biggie. You should know the check-in office is about 5 minutes away from the property. It's quick and easy, and they offered a complimentary spice jar (includes 5 spices like salt/pepper etc) which the cabin doesn't have. It's a nice detail which I appreciated. We look forward to returning again!

Love the location, not a fan of the check in process...

We stayed here right before the new year. We are a family of four, including 2 young children (5 month old and a toddler). After driving up from Orange County with 2 little ones, we checked into their office. The attendant (think his name was Lee) then emailed us the address of the property and instruction to enter. However, he forgot to include the unit number. This missing detail made it very difficult to find the property and we ended up driving around in circles for an hour. With two little children, this added inconvenience was very taxing. We called the after hours number and the attendant gave us the correct address with unit number. Entering the property was easy once we had the correct information. The unit itself is small but cozy. The heater in one of the rooms would make a loud banging noise (every 2 hours or so) that would wake up our baby. Hot water for showers, not the cleanest curtains or comforter. But a comfortable place to stay. We loved the location on the lake. The view was beautiful and what we loved the most was a hill behind the house. We used it for sledding and it was so much fun with the kids. We ended up staying an additional night due to some car issues and the host was very accommodating. They discounted the additional night due to the hiccup we had with our check in. Christina was the person who helped us and we appreciate her. Overall we stay again as we loved the location. We would just need to make sure we have the correct information before driving to the unit.
