This cabin was spectacular for a getaway. I was blessed to snow from their master bedroom patio. This cabin was clean, comfortable, and dog-friendly. Most importantly it was close to the village; the walk to the village was 7-8 minutes. Loved this cabin and plan on returning for another getaway. They had bird feeders in the gated backyard, which was breathtaking to experience. Thank you again.

The Perfect Escape!

This cabin was absolutely perfect for my family to have a quiet and cozy birthday celebration. The cabin was exactly as described...clean, cozy and perfectly located. My 8 year old niece thought it was the "perfect cabin," and made me promise we would stay there again. She also made excellent use of the toys provided.Check in and check out was extremely easy.

Comfortable house

The house is good if you're a family or travelling with a pet. The kitchen and bathroom are clean and functional, and the location is convenient and super quiet, which makes for a comfortable stay. However, the downstairs area needs some work. The carpet is very worn out and smells like pets, which affects the overall freshness. It would be perfect if the house were remodelled with wooden floors, making it easier to clean and more suitable for guests with pets.

Loved our cabin!

It had everything we needed and then some. Super cute and cozy. Nice backyard fenced in for our dog. Great location as we walked to town a couple times. I would stay here again! The bed was comfy too! The towels at the home weren’t super soft. But all else met good quality standards!!

Great cabin close to city center and the lake

Clean, cute cottage/cabin really conveniently located. 2 rooms upstairs, sleeps up to 5, 2 car parking spots. Kitchen and bathroom downstairs. Only drawback would be if you aren’t keen on stairs the rooms are upstairs and the bathroom downstairs. Had some board games and little activities. Great appliance selection in the kitchen if you want to cook. Overall really great experience and the company was easy to work with!

Turkey Day retreat

We decided to get away for Thanksgiving in Big Bear Lake. This little cabin fit our family of 3 well, though it was a bit tight with our 2 big dogs (with their crates). The kitchen was well stocked with supplies, though a few more sharp knives and/or a knife sharpener would’ve been nice. A fenced in yard was great for letting the dogs wander a bit. And the bird feeders made watching the birds and chipmunks fun. It was an easy walk into the village, too.

A perfect and cozy cabin

A perfect, cozy and comfortable cabin for a small family. We stayed over for 4 days and had a great time with our family of 6 including us, parents, a 3 year old and a dog. The cabin had all the essentials, clean and well equipped. Check in and checkout was smooth as well. Our little one had a great time with the collection of toys and games they had, it basically kept her well entertained and occupied. Would recommend this cabin for a cozy staycation.
