An AMAZING Lakeside Property
This quaint lakeside property has outstanding views, and thoughtful amenities, and is clean and well-maintained. The decor is pretty dated but that adds to the charm if you ask me. The host was wonderful and I would definitely recommend this property and will look forward to booking it again in the summer to experience a whole different vibe from our ski trip. Btw, it is about 4 miles from the parking lot of Snow Summitt for winter and right next to the marina for summer. Two enthusiastic thumbs up from me!!

Best Mothers Day Weekend
This Lake front cabin was wonderful. The view is so tranquil and beautiful. Fully stocked with all the necessities and did I mention so clean. The beds are very comfortable and received very restful nights sleep. We loved the short walk to the village. Our favorite memories were sitting out by the lake with a good book and glass of wine. Did I mention this is a great unit for pets. We will be back!

Not the cleanest but great location
Location is awesome. Right on lake. Inside of home wasn’t great. Stains on carpet, pillows flat, found a dog toy in a bed, dirty facecloth in shower. Not a great value but location is beautiful.

Lekefront Big Bear
Beautiful location on big bear lake just a five minute walk from Big Bear Village. Condo has a large patio with plenty of sitting and a gas bbq. Plus a huge shared yard with several sitting area. Beautiful view. Very peaceful. House is comfortable. We were two adults and two teenage girls but you can sleep 7 comfortably as listed. I didn’t give it a five star because kitchen needs new appliances. Front of oven is shattered. Some glass remains and it would be a hazard for young children. You can’t use oven. Fridge is missing shelves. Half of the light bulbs need replacing in bathroom. Other than some maintenance issues, we still highly recommend this property.

Great lake front cabin
Very nice cabin. Everything inside is clean. Beds were very comfortable. View is amazing. 2 minute walk to marina. It has its own dock but weeds in the water make fishing off the dock difficult. I hope to return to this cabin yearly.

Great experience!
It’s a beautiful property right on the lake. Check in process is pretty easy and the managers are very responsive. For example I was not able to open the lock with the key once I got it from the lock box but the managers immediately sent someone to help me out, however I was able to open it myself before they arrived. It snowed when we were there the whole backyard up to the lake was full of fresh snow and my kids played snowball fights. It completely served its purpose. I think the property will be equally beautiful in summer as well
