Game room makes this place fun for kids
We chose this property because of the price and the game room and we got what we paid for. Our kids: 9, 7 and 2 loved the game room and the back yard but we probably would choose a different place next time for several reasons: all 3 kids in one room was not ideal (but that is our family), the house is on a VERY busy road - all day and all night traffic going 40-50mph - so in August that was not ideal as we could not have the sliding door open at night for the cool air (because of the noise). If you're hoping for peace and quiet this is NOT your cabin - but again, I think this is reflected in the price. Also, I assumed that when they said they provided towels that would include washcloths. It did not. There was not one washcloth in the house so we had to buy some at the dollar store. Maybe they said that in the description and I missed it? Otherwise, the kitchen is stocked fairly well. One more thing you should bring if you choose this cabin is your own pillows. The ones provided are pretty dismal (as my husband put it) and only one per person. So, over all, if you are on a tight budget with young kids this is an ok place. Otherwise, keep looking.

Awesome!!!
Loved how cozy and clean this cabin was. It had all the amenities and more. The thoughtfulness of coffee and creamer with sugar. That extra little step of leaving cooking oil for those extended stays. Netflix, family games, hammocks and a game room! By far one of our best stays for us and especially our kids. We will be back

Great Family Cabin
This is this second time we stay her and definitely not our last. This cabin has everything to make our family getaway relaxing and fun! It had all the amenities needed for our family. The kitchen is well stocked with all the cooking tools essentials that allowed us to make our family meals and even bake a cake. When we wanted to go out for shopping and dinner, the village was a short 7 min drive. It is perfectly located! We were surrounded by by the beautiful nature that Big Bear offers. We were able to watch relax on the comfy couches and watch the smart TV. My boys absolutely loved the game room! They played foosball and ping pong for hours! They can’t wait to go back!!!

Great stay!
My family recently stayed 3 nights the last week of December and were very satisfied with the location and the response time from the property owners. This cabin has everything you need including cooking utensils, coffee, plenty of clean towels, a game room, and a smart TV to log in to your favorite apps. I would definitely recommend!

Perfect getaway
Was lucky enough to book during Oktoberfest!! Perfect getaway to celebrate our anniversary. Cozy, well decorated and so close to the village. Having all the amenities of home really added to our stay. Really impressed by the game room., though we didn’t use it, has to check it out!! A lot of thought and love was put into making this place special. Can’t wait to go back!!

Valentine’s Day getaway
Super cozy and well kept space. The bedrooms are spacious and would be perfect for a family. In my case it was just me and my partner but it was perfect and so much room to spare. The cabin was fully loaded with everything we would need. The game room was extremely fun and different. Overall highly recommend, we spent 4 days cooking and playing games inside this beautiful cabin would definitely stay again.

Great getaway home!
This house has everything. It’s great for a getaway from stress at home, you can sit by the fireplace and put your feet up while watching Netflix in the living room, or you can go outside and enjoy some ping pong, foosball, or listen to some music, personally, I enjoyed sitting outside and admiring the blanket of snow covering the backyard . I went up with friends and the stay was very comfortable, great place .

Great place!
This place is amazing. Garage has been converted into a game room, which also has a tv in there for hours of fun. The backyard is flat and big enough to throw a football, frisbee or to have your kids run around to play in the snow. There are hooks on the trees to hang two hammocks and deck with a grill to make burgers or whatever you like to cook. Plenty of parking. Privacy. Awesome place!
