What we loved: This cabin is pretty much as described. We were there with our teenagers and dogs and the space worked perfectly for us. The inside has a large common area with the kitchen, dining room, and living room. The fireplace is gorgeous and the kitchen is well-appointed with new appliances and great counter and pantry space. There is a big fenced backyard that has a BBQ, outdoor table and chairs, and lots of room for your pups to stretch their legs. The steps down to the back yard are a little steep--a bit difficult for anyone who has mobility issues. The cabin is an easy drive (10 minutes or less) to Big Bear Mountain skiing and features like the Alpine slide and Big Bear Lake village.
What could be better: the greeting from the property management staff was not exactly warm when we arrived, but they got the job done and check-in went smoothly. The cabin was very clean, but the hot tub needed a little work--it required some skimming to get debris off the bottom, which isn't a big deal, but for the money this cabin costs, isn't something I wanted to be responsible for. Also, the propane tank on the BBQ was empty and we were told we could either bring the tank to them for a refill or go to the market and have it filled and they would reimburse us. Again, not a huge deal, but not something the renter should be responsible for. Lastly, the light switches were a little confusing, but we figured them out.
Overall, this is a really pretty cabin in a great location. It was comfortable and had tons of ammenities. We had a great weekend!
