Room was large. Decor is odd colors, purple couch, red curtains, blue and grey panel floor…having kitchen amenities is nice, bathroom is small, not well lit, but tub/shower is very adequate. We enjoyed our stay even without electricity our first 12 hours (not really an issue except lack of hot water) due to local electric public safety shut off. Upstairs guests were a bit noisy, as well as people using the stairs. The bed appears to be a firm memory foam, and was fine. The off site personnel were very nice and answered texting promptly. The ONLY real detractor was the very gritty floor which probably needed a good dust mopping. There’s a pretty significant water hammer noise at the kitchen sink. Nothing fancy but pretty adequate.

We enjoyed our stay!

A little confusing when we arrived, as to which was our room. However, we figured it out. Room was cute and gave us what we needed, including coffee set up, a refrigerator and microwave oven. I appreciated the messages, that the staff checked with me if all was fine. I would come back to this place if in the area

As much as we enjoyed the room we absolutely can not recommend this cabin due to the unclean bedding. You know that saying, a picture is worth a thousand words? So I’ll let the pictures do the talking.

5 days 4 nights

1 sink is clogged, luckily there are 2 sinks in the room. Room has been cleaned by around 3:30pm, and I didn't receive the door code until 4:30pm. I was being told it needs an inspection; I was waiting in front of the cabin and there were no one entering the building for inspection. Microwave is wornt; it takes forever to heat up food. The rod is also broken, and it fell. no place to hang clothes, jackets etc. lack of towels for 4 nights stay. mattress is extremely soft; you won't be able to get a good sleep out of it. the heater was great, it warms up the room nicely.

The management was really responsive and kind. Overall, this place is average. There is no A/C, so be prepared if you come during the summer. It’s about 10-12 minutes from the main area in Big Bear. The property was quiet.
