⛔️ DANGER
You are in a wilderness area, do not leave children & pets unattended. Please make sure to not leave pets outdoors at night, coyotes are looking for food!

🐶 We welcome and love dogs BUT...
Our dogs have a blast playing on the property but we want to be mindful of guests with allergies so pets are not allowed on the furniture, including couches and beds.
We’ve had a repeat issue with pet hair on sofas and the beds despite guests agreeing to the house rules. PLEASE be respectful of our home and other guests- believe me, we KNOW when your pets have been on the beds and couches!

Please DO NOT touch “EMERGENCY SHUT OFF “ switch unless it’s an actual emergency. This is NOT an on/off switch. You do not need to turn the spa on or off; it remains at 102 degrees for the most part. If you need it lowered please shoot me a text and I’ll be happy to adjust with my app. Keep the cover on when not in use to maintain temperature. The spa is cleaned before each guest; it’s possible they had to dump & fill the entire spa water if the last guest left it too dirty, or we may have had to add fresh water if the level was low. Unfortunately it may take awhile to reach desired temperature. Please know the only reason the water might be cooler when you arrive is because we wanted to ensure it was clean, sanitary, & full for you.

Fabulous stay in a special property
We loved staying here. Property was perfect for our family of 4 humans and 2 dogs. Great yard, the kids loved playing basketball and volleyball and of course loved the game room. Our dogs loved the space to run and I liked the fenced in place for them play safely. Location is great and the home is beautiful.

Pure Magic
Place is magic, makes any concerns just disappear. Every aspect is a surprise - for the better. Everything is big and beautiful, finishes are great, and the hosts have thought of everything. Amazing property, amazing game room. Clean, warm, ready in every way. While family enjoyed the beautiful yard too. Hosts were the same: magical, amazing, warm. Communication with them is a true treat. All in all, easily the best vacation rental trip we've ever had.

Nothing short of spectacular
I’ve rented many homes (around this price category) in the big bear area over the years and none have been this well appointed and none have been this well managed. The pictures do not do the property justice. Property is huge and feels very private. Thank you to the Santiago’s for sharing this beautiful property.

Cabin Oasis
I dont even know where to being. 5 stars is not enough. Jorge and Monique are amazing host. Everything you need or want is available. They truly thought of everything, from sports outside the cabin like 🏐🏀🏈⛳️ to games inside🎮🕹🎱🥌. Plenty of outdoor activities for the whole family on the 1 acre lot its HUGE!. Lets not forget making smore's or having a drink around 15 person firepit ♨️The location of the Cabin is perfect. 5 minutes from restaurants, stores and Zoo. And of course the awesome game room with pool table, air hockey, 3 tvs, xbox, Arcade machine and even board games. My wife and I had a great time seeing our Adult children turn back into kids was the best feeling for us. Also relaxing into the jacuzzi after a long day of snowboarding ( more like falling ) lol was a big bonus. We absolutely recommend this property to anyone looking to spend some quality time in the mountains. Everything about this place is truly beautiful from scenery to the home decor. We cant stop bragging about this place and have been the envy of all or friends and family. I can go on and on, but honestly Jorge and Monique really care about their guest and where real good at communicating with me and all my crazy questions. Dont look no further and don't second guest yourself, just book! 😊

Great Family Getaway
We had a fantastic time at the Trout Lodge with our family of five (three boys ages 3, 5, and 8) and our nanny. The property was very large, with a fully fenced in back yard that allowed us to relax worry-free as the safety boys explored the grounds (and of course enjoyed the super fun game room). The cabin itself was well appointed and comfortable, with plenty of room for us all. Jorge and Monique were fantastic hosts and very responsive! We would definitely stay there again!

The cabin is so magical and transformative, you can’t help but fall in love with the experience
This cabin will knock your socks off. Every single detail is so thoughtful and charming, and so very much appreciated. From the chandeliers to the light switches to the furniture, the moment you walk it you are engulfed in cabin life and you just become a part of the experience. This is exactly the get away we were looking for for us and our 5 and 4 year old. There was so much space for everyone to enjoy. The living room has the most comfortable and massive couch with a spectacular tv. The kitchen table is big enough to eat on half and puzzle or play games on the other half. The beds are INSANE! If the beds are buttery soft, then the sheets are margarine. Even our kids slept in (major win). The kitchen has all top quality appliances and all gadgets you need (it even comes with spices and cooking necessities). And that was just the main house! The porch has a fantastic hot tub with a tv over it, and a wonderful (and easy) grill that’s hooked up to gas. The game room is just a few steps off the porch. Even in the snow, it didn’t feel too far. Its stocked with an insane amount of massive TVs, air hokey, fooseball (disguised in the cutest sneaky coffee table convertible / game table piece of furniture), classics arcade games and the most beautiful log pool table. The couch in there turns into a bed, plus there’s plenty of room for air mattresses. I’m not even done! The yard, is insane! HUGE! We’re from California where land is a luxury we don’t get. We were shocked when we saw how big it is! It has volleyball, basketball, horseshoes, fire pit and put put golf. We didn’t even leave the property we were so fulfilled. But the town is just down the street. You’re a few blocks away from CVS, Starbucks, restaurants and there’s a mini golf lot that’s walking distance. Heads up the fireplaces require you to be able to build a fire, no duraflame logs, so get your Scout hat on and start rubbing sticks together. But that was all part of the experience! We also brought a lot of young kid toys with us, which we’re glad we did. The house is stoked with amazing board games and video games, but if your kids aren’t quite that age, be sure to pack some of their age appropriate toys. The owners were communicative and attentive when needed, but let us have our space. We were able to seamlessly move in and feel like the place was our own. We are 100% coming back, and can’t wait for our kids to continue to build memories here.

Favorite Cabin in Big. Bear
Our stay at Trout Lodge was our favorite stay in Big Bear. The owners, Monique and Jorge, have done an exceptional job preserving the history while updating the cabin. The game room was a big hit for us. The owners have put themselves in the shoes of renters and thought of everything. We truly appreciate all the details and all the TV’s!

Unbelieveably Amazing Property!
Let me start by saying I've stayed at hundreds of hotels and home rentals over the years and I've reviewed them, both good and bad. This is one of the best places I've ever stayed. The owners have created a beautiful and luxurious yet fun and relaxing place to be. They've thought of everything you could want including an amazing separate structure with pool table, air hockey, video games, TV's etc. The property itself is huge and fenced, with hammocks under the trees, as well as outdoor games areas. There is a huge gas firepit with seating as well as the cleanest hot tub I've ever seen at a rental. Then there's the house itself. It is so well decorated in true Big Bear cabin style,with some upscale choices like hammered copper sinks and stone enclosed showers. There are TVs in each bedroom with Roku, a double wine fridge for both your whites and reds, even cute bear paw cabinet handles in the kitchen and unique plates and bowls etc. As a wonderful welcome gift they provide s'mores makings to use at the fire pit. The location is great, super close to groceries stores and only minutes from The Village with its shops and restaurants and yet it is quiet and relaxing even during the day. The owners were communicative and available for any issue and texted just to see how we were settling in and if we needed anything. There's so much to do in Big Bear in any season and this is definitely the place to call home while you're there.

Luxurious relaxation
Spectacular property. We had a great escape with three generations. Some big bear properties throw a pool table in the garage and charge more. This rental has an amazing gaming center made from a restored Bait House. This property is truly high end with everything done with the guest in mind; it's enchanting. Though dogs are welcome, the cleaning is thorough with no trace of smell or hair. The house is walking distance to the zoo and a paved trail leads to Big Bear Blvd. You'll find no better nap than in the hammocks and living room is perfect for movie night. Everyone will be happy here.

Mountain 🗻🐻 Paradise
This property is too perfect for words. The location is ideal; Very close to the main strip in Big Bear but when you are at the cabin you have peace, quiet and privacy. I never wanted to leave the backyard 😊 The hammocks and the trees were my favorite. I have 2 diverse kiddos but they always found something to do. My daughter enjoyed the golf, volleyball and corn hole. My son loved the hot tub and XBox. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed and we enjoyed an awesome dinner using the fabulous grill. I could go on and on about all of the things I loved about the house itself (wooden bunkbeds, tables, rocking chairs, decor, etc....) but you'll have to see if for yourself. What stands out the most though is probably the communication and accommodations of the owners ❤ Monique was friendly, warm and welcoming and responded so quickly to every question I had (AND I HAD A LOT 😉)! She even went out of her way to get a few items to me that we'd left behind. I'm already trying to figure out when I can get back there. Thank You so very much Jorge & Monique for sharing your perfect home with us. Sasha Brooks

This property is excellent inside and out. It is perfectly kept. The hosts were incredible answering any questions you had immediately. We were with my teenage grandsons which are always hard to please and they preferred staying in the cabin than going out and doing things. That’s how comfortable it was. They had Nintendo so they were happy Thank you Monique for being there when I had questions I spite of not feeling well.

Amazing Property!
This cabin was amazing! It was the perfect place to go to get away for a week! The location is quiet and convenient for getting to everything around town and at the nearby ski areas. When we weren't out exploring Big Bear we spent most of our time in the huge backyard. The kids really enjoyed all of the outside activities located in the backyard and making smores every night. The property owners were extremely responsive and great hosts. If we had questions, they had answers immediately. We will definitely be back!

With 6 kids from 1-16 including adults, everyone had a blast and is anxious to return. Everything was so convenient, well kept, well thought of and excellent quality. I'm nervous great reviews will keep this place booked if we tried to return

We are Business Owners and have always dreamed of owning a home in Big Bear, it’s only a two hour drive from L.A. but feels like a world away from the hustle & bustle! We have been married for over 27 years and have 5 amazing children. Family and quality time are important to us, which is why we purchased a home in beautiful Big Bear. We set-up the cabin as if we lived there, so rest assured it will have all the comforts of home and everything you need for an unforgettable getaway!

Why they chose this property

This property is unique with it's 1 acre of fenced property encasing nearly 100 Jeffrey pine trees. The cabin is newly renovated and has the luxury cabin feel with all the modern comforts like gourmet kitchen with large windows overlooking the property with woodsy views, and allows you to keep an eye on the kids while cooking. Furnished with high end custom log furniture and a warm open concept, 2 stove fireplaces, huge dining room table for gatherings, and walk-in spacious stone showers. The cabin has large smart flat screen TV's, the Nest central heat and AC, high speed internet for working and remote schooling....and an X-box "babysitter"!

The real beauty is outside though! My favorite spot to have my morning coffee is on the large deck! Our comfy outdoor furniture allows you to work on the laptop while watching the kids play, or simply relax in the hot tub and watch a movie while the warm jets massage you. The gas BBQ is ready for you grillers to serve your family on the massive custom outdoor log table...some say they never even use the indoor table because it's just too gorgeous in the warmer months!

Beyond the deck is an enormous gas fire pit with plenty of seating for delicious s'mores and campfire stories! A basketball hoop, a volleyball net, tetherball, 2 hammocks, horseshoes, corn hole, golf putting green (1 hole), and a walking trail on the backside of the property are several of the amenities that make our home unique; there's so much to do you don't even need to leave the property to have a great time!

So many have chosen our cabin because of all it has to offer, especially in times like these. For those of us that are trying to isolate, yet NEED a getaway, this is a great choice! We take our cleaning and sanitizing procedures seriously, we want to keep our cleaning crew, maintenance crew, and guests stay happy and healthy!






What makes this property unique

I feel like I've already said all that needs to be said but you truly can't beat the 1 acre of FENCED property that offers a safe space to let your children and dogs roam (of course they should never be left alone). Our high speed Google Mesh internet allows those who are working remotely and distance learning to take a much needed "Coronacation"!
Who else has a volleyball net & hot tub with a TV? I mean there's lots of great places to choose from but we truly own a little piece of Big Bear heaven (and history)! We have given each detail so much thought; we put so much effort into making it not only our home but something truly magical for our guests! We want your kids to get off their phones and stop to smell the pine trees. We want you to spend some much needed family time reconnecting with your kids and get dirty playing basketball (not play dirty for you competitive dads). Get out and build a snowman or an igloo with the TON of snow that falls on the property. Or just be lazy and fall asleep cuddling on the sofa while watching a movie by the fire.
