Rustic Big Bear Cabin with all essentials
We have been Big Bear cabin owners for 15 years and rented this one last minute when ours was already spoken for.
Rating- 5 Booking process, 3 Decor, amenities, location, 2 Refund payment: 3 Overall
Booking process was easy and property manager was responsive to our booking inquiries. We did have some difficulty getting security deposit back. The first inquiry to the property manager after 2 weeks got no response. After 3 weeks contacted property manager again as well as owner and submitted complaint to HomeAway after which deposit was returned.
For a budget priced cabin it provides all of the essentials in a rustic, well used cabin decor. Good sized kitchen, adequate utensils, plates, bowls etc. for 6 people. Coffee maker is small (4 cups) so if you have more than one coffee drinker in the party, recommend you bring you own. Living room has 2 good size couches and comfortable chair. Heating worked OK to take the chill off but If it is cold you will need to have a fire to keep things comfortable (70 degrees or so). Web site indicated some firewood and kindling supplied but none available for our stay so you may want to ask about this. Plenty of places to buy wood in town though. The fireplace insert/wood stove is fairly easy to use though it did leak some smoke around door seal that would set smoke detector off on occasion. Double bed and bunks are OK for comfort. Would bring mattress pads and our own pillows if we stayed there again. Futon in 2nd bedroom OK for kids but not recommended for adults as very uncomfortable. Would definitely bring egg crate or other mattress pad for this if you need the bed space.
Location right against National Forest is nice and kids can play outside back door with no concerns for traffic. Great access for hiking. No through traffic so street is very quiet anyway. If any significant fresh snow you will definitely need 4 wheel drive or chains to get up Pine Ln. If you are there during a busy time as we were, took hour with traffic to drive to ski areas, only 20 minutes if not a peak weekend.
Overall the cabin is what you would expect for the price and has all the essentials for weekend getaway. Nice location if you just want to hang out in the mountains. Too far from resorts if that is your plan on busy weekend.
