Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed the house, its great location, and the provided amenities during your stay at Big Bear Vacations. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we would be delighted to welcome you back for another memorable experience in the future.
The house was filthy, including mouse droppings all over the house. All dishes/cooking items and kitchen utensils caked with food and grease. Had to shovel for 2 hours to clear driveway, parking, deck and walkways to access the property. Dishwasher didn’t work. Exposed wiring/outlets uncovered.Property managesment referred to all our concerns as “inconveniences” and sent maintenance and housekeeping staff 5 different times making incomplete or inadequate repairs/clwaning. In the end we got a small refund 400 less than I requested.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience — we’re genuinely sorry your stay fell so far below expectations. The issues you encountered, especially regarding cleanliness and safety, are absolutely unacceptable and not reflective of the standard we strive to maintain. We understand your frustration, especially given the condition of the home upon arrival and the repeated but insufficient attempts to resolve the concerns. Referring to these serious matters as mere "inconveniences" was insensitive, and we regret that your concerns weren’t handled with the urgency and care they deserved.
We truly value your feedback and are addressing these issues internally to ensure no guest has a similar experience in the future.
