Lovely space for a family getaway. Unbeatable views of the forest and lake! Kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed, the hot tub is new and super nice, and the arcade games were fun for the kids. Host Mike responded in minutes anytime we reached out. We will definitely stay here again!

We absolutely loved this property. It was the perfect accommodations for our group of 14. With 8 kids and 6 adults everyone slept comfortably, there were plenty of beds and bathrooms, and nice spaces for kids and adults to gather separately and enjoy age appropriate fun. The property had everything needed for staying in, and Big Bear in the summer was a blast out and about. The property is conveniently located close to great food, shopping, and entertainment. The host was communicative and accommodating, with quick response times and flexibility for our group. We definitely plan to come again now that we know how perfectly our group fit in this home.

Right and better than described. Huge back yard, the original plan was not taking our dogs, after booking and reading reviews decided to take them. Best decision ever. Great family getaway surrounded by nature, hot tub was right on point when we got there. Easy access, close to everything, well equipped, have everything you need to have a very nice, comfy nature time.

Our extended family of 10 (8 adults, 2 teenagers) absolutely loved this cabin! We felt right at home and had plenty of space to spend time together in common areas, but also enough space to have our privacy when it was needed. We encountered a couple of minor issues over the 3 nights we stayed and Mike was so quick to respond and offer his help! Everything you could need in town is less than a 10 minute drive and once you make it up to the peaceful location of the cabin you won’t regret your choice to drive a little extra out of town to stay here. There’s a beautiful lake view from 2 separate patios and multiple hiking spots within walking distance. Neighbors were friendly and we felt at home during our entire stay! Fit 3 cars (2 trucks and an SUV) easily in the driveway and garage. My favorite spots were the reading nook just off the kitchen and porch swing which weren’t clearly highlighted in Mike’s listing, but definitely should be! We will absolutely be staying with Mike again!

This cabin was perfect for our friends and family! Ample space, clean, and had everything we needed for a perfect weekend getaway. The views were also so nice! Would highly recommend to anyone visiting big Bear with a large group!

Location was excellent across the street from direct lake access. Enjoyed paddle boarding and kayaking with rentals within walking distance. We appreciated that the pantry had all the basics (seasoning, oils) and shampoo, conditioner provided in the restrooms. The property had some beautiful views of the lake. The kids made great use of the pool table, ping pong table and games. Manager was very detailed and responsive. Short drive to the Village shopping area. Overall the property is well kept and we enjoyed our stay. Thank you!

Unbelievable giant cabin in Big Bear! Close to town but felt far away for our group of parents. The kids had a blast in the movie theater, game room and hot tub. Multiple fireplaces and a fire pit - basically could’ve stayed in the house the whole trip. Would definitely stay again.

This wonderful house absolutely has location, location, location! Not only that, though. Many Airbnb places seem super generic, but this special place feels like the things inside have been attentively collected over the years; more like a family house. So? The moment you walk in it is stylishly comfy, and full of warmth. That’s a rarity! That, combined with the AMAZING positioning of the house on the lake, with awesome views, makes this place a real winner! All that AND they welcome pets! My mom’s dog and cockatiel loved this place! We will definitely look forward to returning!

Great truly amazing home with a breathtaking view of the lake. Fireworks over the lake on Fourth of July were amazing. Seeing the eagles and eaglets and all the other wildlife around was such a treat too! The home is truly special will definitely look to book again in the future. Our family had a wonderful time and everything was perfect!

We felt like we were in good hands with Mike. His home was beautiful and we felt safe in the cabin. We did learn that homes at big bear lake don't have dumpsters, so you do have to take your trash to a free public dump site, but Mike and his team left plenty of bags for us to put our trash in. Just be prepared to take trash bags in your car The game room was awesome. There is now a foosball table in there, it has replaced the Air hockey table.
