 Welcome to the Stay and Play Chalet, the definition of rustic fun mountain living. This 5 bedroom/3bathroom getaway is perfectly situated in Big Bear, close to both the ski slopes, lake, and village. With a large open floorplan, you will feel completely comfortable with all the space this home has to offer. From a game room to a hot tub, there is plenty to do and interact with while you are home at the Chalet.

As you walk into the main floor area, you are greeted with lovely leather furniture and a cozy old-school wood burning fireplace. Walk up the short flight of stairs to the main living area, where kitchen, game room, dining room, and informal family room are housed. The kitchen comes fully equipped with upscale appliances, granite countertops, and barstool seating; a wonderful way to converse while whipping up a delicious meal on the gas-flame cooktop. A comfortable family room area has plenty of seating, electric fireplace, and access to watch the large mounted flat screen television. Pool player in the group? You’ll be right at home with the fully operational pool table. If pool is not your game, enjoy playing at the air hockey table! A wrap around deck sits right outside the living area with peak ski slope views.

Five large bedrooms accommodate up to 14 people. The master bedroom comes equipped with both a King-sized bed and a twin (perfect for a small family of 3). The master has a full en-suite bathroom, with double vanity and shower/tub combo. Bedroom number two is great for the young ones in the party, with a twin over twin bunk bed as well as an additional bed so three people can snooze comfortably. The third bedroom has both a queen and twin bed. Bedroom number four has a bonus room with a twin sized bed. The fifth and final bedroom houses a California king and full bed in it. Two more full baths finish out the living accommodations! There is more than enough space to make the chalet a multi-family vacation!

Head outside to one of the two wrap around decks that reside on both stories. Upstairs, you can fire up the gas-grill for an outdoor dining experience. Want to soak those bones after a long day on the slopes or day on the lake? You will love the large outdoor hot tub, where you can enjoy a cold beer or glass of wine while relaxing and viewing the stars. Enjoy the new deck, fenced yard and bocce ball & horseshoe pits. The Stay and Play Chalet has a little bit of everything for everyone on your list for your next amazing Big Bear holiday!

Beautiful rental walking distance from snow summit.
We enjoyed our stay very much. The decor is very charming and new with beautiful art of big bear. The game tables kept the teens entertained (wished they had better quality que sticks). the rooms were clean. All in all everything was great at this home.

Good place for a large group!
There were plenty of rooms for all of us, good open area upstairs where we all could hang out. Most of the house was clean but the floors were still covered in dirt. It is a bummer that the one door to the backyard is through a room. Also a bummer that there is no fire pit allowed anymore. The listing should be updated to reflect the new ordinance.

Family 2023
Convenient location. Had all the appliances needed to cook, including multiple coffee pots, crock pots, baking dishes, utensils etc. not enough towels, we had 9 adults and 5 children. I think there were only towels for the adults. Cozy and plenty of space for a big family. Although we had several little ones so we had to go buy some baby gates to put up since the kitchen and game room were on the top of the stairs. Could have been a little cleaner. A few spider webs hanging. Overall it was a great stay for our first big family trip. We will stay with Vrbo again

Spacious and FUN
We had our family reunion there and this house was perfect. Huge great room-kitchen, family room, dining all connected. So we didn’t have to break up the group. Everyone could either watch a movie, play pool, air hockey, cook a meal, play a board game at the dining room table -all in the same vicinity. We were all together but not on top of each other. Very nice place! Clean sheets and towels. Very nice technicians!!! Thank you!!!!

Family Friendly BUT...
It was a great space for a family gathering. We had 13 people; 7 of them kids. The air hockey was a hit. There are a few things to be aware of before reserving this (pricey) property. Not deal breakers but good to know. There is no AC, which was fine down below but got pretty hot in the living area. There is no toiletries, which all other VRBOs we have stayed in provided. You will need your own laundry detergent, paper towels, plastic wrap/foil and storage (Ziploc) bags. If you want to use the Keurig, bring pods. Be careful with the spa. They tried to charge us for it being "milky" and it was already that way upon arrival. Notify agency of any problems right away because they might be looking for a way to hold on to deposit money. One more thing...check-in on VRBO says 3:00 and the rental agency wasn't ready for us until 4:00.

Better then expected
The property was amazing. The cabin was even better then the pictures in the add. And the location was perfect. The hot tub did take a minute to figure out. The controls are not well labeled but it was really nice. The only downside was no AC and not having enough fans in rooms. But with the windows open it cooled down nice in the evenings.

Warm and welcoming site for a celebration
We had a great time here for a friend's bachelor party! The beds were plentiful and comfortable, and everything was functional. The hosts were responsive and the location was excellent! We spent a lot of time in the main living room upstairs and for 10 people it felt like plenty of space to relax and move between conversations. This living room was a big selling point for me in having a well-equipped central space to spend time, play games, and hang out, and it delivered. We also used the hot tub which was really nice after a long hike. Would definitely stay here again! Only issue would be to make sure you bring a basic set of knives; the kitchen had a lot of equipment but the knife selection was a bit random and it made it hard to cut things like meat effectively.

Fantastic place
Does not look much from the outside but the inside accommodations were great. I think the number of towels were too little for our guest. I also had difficulty changing the temperature on the hot tub. Some instructions for the hot tub would be helpful.

Great Mountain Getaway
We stayed at the chalet for a quick weekend getaway with a group of 10 girls. The house was clean and comfortable, with plenty of space and beds for everyone. The upper living area is a perfect hang-out spot. All the bedrooms are on the lower level and were very cold upon arrival. The space heaters in each room were helpful and once those got going, the house stayed warm. The only inconvenience was that the hot tub was not working and completely drained. We would have appreciated a heads up from the management company in advance as we were looking forward to utilizing the hot tub and it had obviously been in disrepair for some time. Aside from the hot tub issue, we would definitely book this house again!

Quick Getaway
The house is nice, great layout. We didn't have any problems the only thing that we noticed was that the beds didn't seem well done, like someone had already been in them, which we're hoping the bed sheets were washed before we arrived. Other than that the home was beautifully decorated. Keep in mind the kitchen is on the 2nd floor.
