Hello Rajwinder, Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We are happy to hear that you and your group were able to enjoy Ponderosa by the Lake. When traveling with a larger group like yours, that space is very much needed.
Big Bear is definitely a place for friendly neighborhoods:). Having a home with an open floor plan is a nice touch to a good vacation home. Thank you, Destination Big Bear
Property is clean, plenty of parking, and plenty of extra blankets. The very large mud room was a nice bonus for storing wet snow gear. Had to wash the dishes as the previous renters did do a good job on them. Minor issue with Jacuzzi circuit breaker popping when you turn on jets while heater is on. All and All the place was very accommodating and we had a great time.

You are a wonderful guest we have ever been, we will feel great to serve you again. Hope to see you soon.
Todo bien, ubicación, amenidades, camas, pero el detalle que sólo se puede meter a bañar una persona a la vez cuando es una casa grande, éramos 14 y tuvimos que hacer turnos.
Y el que no se pueda usar la secadora de ropa es algo que pensábamos si se podía usar y después de un día de esquiar algo llega húmedo.
