The Space: PLEASE BE AWARE YOU ARE LOCATED IN A NEIGHBORHOOD WITH LOCALS AND OTHER AIRBNBS. you have access to the majority of house and yard but be aware that the city is big on noise, parking, disturbance and over the occupancy ordinances. In the event that the city stops by for one of these they will most likely issue a fine. the fine starts at 1500.00 and this is the warning they do not issue warnings. noise violations can be at any time of day and no speakers outside. WE WILL ASK FOR A 1500.00 DEPOSIT OR ASK YOU TO LEAVE IMMEDIATELY. THIS IS A CITY RULE AND THEREFORE WE MUST ENFORCE. We will ask for deposit to pay for your part of the citation. to avoid this we ask that you do not blare music outside, keep all windows and doors shut when enjoying self and to keep eye out on neighborhood during stay. we apologize but we have to enforce this. Now if we do not receive a deposit we will release your info to the city and they will mail you a fine in your name personally. This is expensive for the both of us and rather not do this. It is always good to familiarize self with the rules of the city which can be done at sanbernadino str ordinanaces on google.
Guest Access: Guests have access to the entire house except, The 3 locked closets for the homeowners & cleaners & behind the separated area in garage.
The Neighborhood: Very quiet and high-end neighborhood. The back yard is not private the surrounding neighbors and you can see in each back yard

The house was super clean! this was the icing on top because it makes the trip more comfortable when the cabin is clean. House is spacious and love that they had things for the kids to do. Beds were made with lots of blankets and also extra blankets in case we needed them. Beautiful place and a lot of amenities. thank you!
We do this annual family big bear trip where our mom loves to stay in the same house with everyone. But it’s so hard to find that kind of space. But then, we found the castle! This house was amazing, clean and everyone had their own space which was the most important since we all have little ones who take naps and have bedtime routines. Every room has a bathroom! The pink master had blackout curtains which sleep training moms know is a game changer. One of the best rentals we’ve stayed at ever size wise and amenities wise. Loved it!
The Host was very welcoming and helpful! The amenities definitely met and exceeded our expectations! The rooms having their own en suite was awesome! We enjoyed the pool table, arcade games and poker table. The large tables in the house were great to gather as a family and play games, eat and do puzzles. The place was very clean and had everything we needed and more. There was so much room for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves! A perfect place for our family to get together to have fun and relax! Also, a close proximity to the ski slopes and Village. There was also a jacuzzi but we didn’t get a chance to use it! But it looked very nice.
Property was beautiful, very clean. The policies were laid out very clearly and the owners were responsive to questions. Our group enjoyed the pool table and board games. It was a great stay!
We stayed at this house while vacationing in Big Bear for a family wedding. It was great! It’s a beautiful house, clean, very attentive property manager, and plenty of space for big groups.
Booked this property for a family snowboarding trip and it was perfect. All bedrooms except for the kids room have their own dedicated bathroom. The amenities were great, the hosts are very kind and responsive, and the property was very comfortable and inviting. It is also a very short drive to the slopes which was very convenient.
We are a group of 14 individuals who came up for a staff retreat from a hospital in orange county. We got a chance to walk around in the beautiful scenery, have some good meals together, watch movies, play pool. The location was peaceful and wonderful.
We will definitely be back.
Family and I stayed a few nights at the house. The home is huge and beautiful. Location was perfect. Our host was very attentive and communicative. Lots to do inside the home such as play with pool table, poker table, arcade (with tons of classic games), spa, swings on balcony (view of pond). Near Big bear lake and village. Had a great time, would definitely recommend.
The home is enchanting: spacious in design, with very high ceilings, lots of ornate windows offering multiple views of gorgeous pines and trees in various shades of green, and several peeks of the shimmering, blue lake. The furniture is handsome and very comfortable, and the decor is delightfully reflective of Big Bear community highlights through incredible photographs and oil paintings, throughout. It has outstanding kitchen and bathroom ammenities that are well organizated. It truly is like vacatiining in a castle with modern ammenitied, -exceeding all our expectations!
We rented this house for a large family gathering of six different families, ranging in age from 10-85. There was plenty of room for everyone. We each even had our own bathrooms, which was a huge bonus. The house is clean (my standards for clean are high) and this is the most well stocked rental I have ever stayed in. They have thought of everything. The only thing that was missing was aluminum foil/saran wrap which I don’t typically expect at a rental, but this one was so fully stocked, I was surprised it wasn’t there. We had a ton of fun using the poker table, pool table, video game, outside playground, and jacuzzi. With the exception of the TV next to the poker table (couldn’t figure out how to get it to work ), everything was very easy to use and there was no confusion with trying to figure out the Jacuzzi, TVs, fireplaces, etc.
The house is located in a residential area with houses all around so don’t expect a private mountain atmosphere. There is one row of houses between this house and the lake. You can see a partial view of the lake but the house is not on the lake. It is a quick drive to a grocery store and into town. It snowed one night which was beautiful to watch from the second level of the house while we played pool. There are 2 bedrooms on the first floor. The rest of the bedrooms are on the second floor, including the master bedroom, and a bedroom that has a crib and pack and play. We had a great time and will rent this house again.
We had an amazing stay here! Communicating with the hosts was easy and everyone (both children and adults) in our large group loved the space and activities that were provided. The small details really made our stay so convenient and enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again if we ever go back to Big Bear,
This place offers so much comfort, privacy and warmth that you just do not want to go anywhere outside! The blankets and sheets were liked by everybody in our group. The hot water fawcet to make tea was the cure for my cold !!! Thank you Kori for being so attentive to our requests. My family is already asking me when we are going back!
This beautiful home was the highlight of our trip! Loved the location, only 5 minutes from the grocery store and slopes. Fast replies to any questions we had prior to our stay. Would definitely stay here again! Everyone enjoyed their stay.
This property was amazing! Beautifully furnished and decorated! It was very clean, and neat. Well, equipped, kitchen and appliances! Toddler and one-year-old, with supervision, enjoyed the playground immensely. Terrific follow up on any questions or concerns. We’ve loved our stay here the last two years. And hope to come in the future, also. Eleven family members from ages 1 to 90 enjoyed our reunion time together and made wonderful memories together!!
Had a terrific week with our extended family and this was the perfect property. Tons of space, tasteful, and completely functional. Would strongly recommend.
My family and I had a wonderful stay at the castle. The home is so beautiful and well kept.
Kori, thank you for all your assistance and courtesies. We look forward to visiting again.
Sincerely
Pamela W. and family
