About this property

BASECAMP- Luxury and Stylish Mountain Cabin, 5bdrms, 3 Fireplaces, Hot Tub

Location Location Location!!! Only 4 doors from the Snow Summit Parking lot. Newly modernized and designed for the modern adventurer. No matter your passion, BaseCamp has got something for everyone. Amenities not found in your typical vacation rental, designed by adventurers for adventurers. From a fully capable mudroom with racks and storage for your adventure stuff to the 'Oso Rehab Shop'-- A room dedicated to working on your toys and equipment, featuring a fully outfitted workbench, racks for bikes, skies and boards. A 'wax box' to fine-tune your board or skies. A jack stand for your motorcycle if you need to put a wrench on it, and a bike wash rack just outside. Then try your hand at the ping-pong table to put a different spin on 'the shop', or head out the backslider to the horseshoe pitch.

BaseCamp is a modern take on the mountain chalet that beautifully combines the old and new, boasting the Big Bear alpine setting. Clean contemporary lines, understated style and bright lofty interiors that frame the forest are contrasted with warm wood tones. Featuring a 2 story main house with 4 bedrooms and three baths (Master en suite) and a guest unit featuring large (pool table) game room, bar/kitchenette, 1 bedroom and bath.

Both the Main House and Guest Unit are included when you rent Oso BaseCamp.

The back yard is large and features extensive decking, multiple outdoor areas for hanging and eating, barbecuing, playing horseshoes and there is even a playhouse for the kids.

Perfect spot!
This beautiful home was perfect for our large group of 14. It was clean, spacious, well equipped with all kitchen items you need to cook your own meals, large driveway for SUVs, plus multiple areas to spread out. We walked to Snow Summit to snowboard. Close 5 minute drive to grocery stores, dining options. 10 minute drive to Bear Mountain. The pool table and hot tub were an added bonus. We hope to return. Kim, the property manager was quick to respond and very helpful. We hope to come back!

We had a blast!!!
We have been coming from PHX to Big Bear for 5 years for skiing. We started at the Holiday Inn for 3 years and then we rented a condo last year.We decided to invite a few other couples and get a house.We looked at no less than 25 on VRBO and other sites as well.We came across this amazing looking house and knew it was the one.We booked it in August for a January vacation.Communication was amazing with the .As our vacation approached the owners reached out and gave us the name of the property manager that would meet us to gain access.Meet Kim, the coolest host in the world.She was on time and very communicative.Also so thorough when we arrived.She was very familiar with the property and all of the “workings” of the systems.Let me be the first to say, this house was 100% accurate in all pictures and advertisements.I was just as big as the pictures showed, no wide angle lens to embellish.The house was spotless and VERY well equipped.The kitchen was stocked with all of the utensils, plates, coffee machines and such that anyone could need.No expense was spared and it shows.Kim let us know that if there was any questions at any time to call or text her right away.From the fire places to the hot tub, from the gear room at the front door to the bar.It was appointed so well.Its right around the corner from the ticket booth.The house has everything you need.The beds were comfy.There were tons of towels. Super clean.See you next year!!!!

Amazing house awesome location
We loved everything about this house from the super easy and friendly check in process with Kim to the convenient location to the slopes. There was enough room for our family of 14 to sleep, play, and hang out. Extra touches likes games for all ages, plush bath towels, and handy flashlight nightlights make this house amazing. Just rent it, you will not regret it!

Location and space!
Second time renting this property which is great for a large family- there are two separate houses, so teens can be in a separate area without being too far away. House is literally down the block from Snow Summit, which was super convenient for lunch and rest breaks. There is ample space, comfortable beds, and well maintained furniture. Keyless entry, great backyard. We were able to have a wonderful stay to celebrate my son's bday. Great communication with host and property manager. There were a few snags that they addressed once we were gone: (kitchen sink in main house with very slow flow (replaced after our stay, but was a hassle as we had to bring pots/dishes to the other house to wash), slow drain, not enough silverware or towels for 16 people (she bought some new silverware), cleaning crew left some food crumbs in fridge, damp towels that smelled like bleach...little things but when the price is high, you also have higher standards- again, property manager told me these were all fixed once we were gone. It is a pricey place but you pay for the space and convenience of being right there for Snow Summit. Would rent again for big families. Thanks!

Excellent location to mountain
We were a group of 3 adult couples and 6 teens. The kids could easily get to the mountain while adults were at the house with no worries. Location is so amazing. A slightly late check in but understood as there was a group checking out before us. We would rent this place again.
