My fiancé and I stayed here for our anniversary weekend getaway. It was our first time in Big Bear. The cabin was within a 10 minute drive of everything we needed and all the activities we did, yet the neighborhood was quiet and peaceful. Mike responded quickly with questions we had prior to arrival, the cabin was clean and had more than enough amenities. We would definitely stay here again next time we return to Big Bear!

Nothing less than great things to say. Mike's cabin was beautiful, clean, and felt right at home. We would absolutely stay here on our next trip. We wished we had stayed longer! Thanks for everything, Mike.

My husband & I booked this cabin last minute for a quick getaway to see the fall leaves and it completely exceeded our expectations….WAY better than the photos! Absolutely stunning views of Bear Mountain & its surroundings. The cabin is so quiet and feels very secluded & private. The design is really cool too! Very stylish, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated with trendy touches throughout. We made dinner and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed. We turned on the fireplace and enjoyed a cozy dinner in…perfection! We spent most of our time on the patio, sitting in the sun during the day, watching the sunset with a glass of wine by the firepit, then relaxed in the hot tub with mountain views under the stars. The bed was super comfortable, and waking up to the sunrise treetop view from the main bedroom was pure magic! I can only imagine how beautiful the cabin must be in the snow, we can’t wait to come back this winter and bring our friends since it’s so spacious!! Such a GEM!

We absolutely loved our stay. The place was just as amazing as it looked. Mike was an excellent host from start to finish. He answered every question and did so quickly. He even helped us retrieve a forgotten item. Can’t recommend enough!

Elk Peak is a gem and Mike is an amazing host. Place was easy to find, clear instructions were provided. Really enjoyed our stay. We'd love to come back again!

Very nice house, great view. We had an issue with one of the bathroom doors not closing and Mike responded right away and sent someone that day to fix it.

We had a wonderful stay. The cabin was calm and peaceful, exactly what we needed for a relaxing getaway. The fireplace was perfect for cozy evenings, and the beds were super comfortable. The location couldn’t be better, quiet but still close enough to walk around and explore. Would definitely stay again!

This home was truly incredible! The perfect getaway for my wife and I. We absolutely loved all the warm decorative touches around the space from the custom wood decor pieces to the unique art pieces sprinkled all throughout the home. It felt like there was always something new to discover! Only thing to be aware of is the steep parking hill. The balcony view is breathtaking! We came in the fall and seeing all red, orange, and yellow leaves woven into the green backdrop of the pine trees was so peaceful and relaxing. We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast together with delicious complementary coffee while listening to the sounds of birds chirping happily in the trees above. The hot tub lives up to the hype! Gorgeous view of the ski slope mountains as you unwind in the perfectly heated spa. We also were impressed with how large the property is! A spacious yet cozy master bedroom downstairs and another full bedroom with its own separate bathroom upstairs. Backyard is huge! 10/10 for this stay!

Amazing place. Huge lot right on the lake. Layout of the house is really unique too with the kitchen upstairs and a den with wood burning stove as you enter. Located right near the Village and really close to hiking trails.
