GBThe unit we stayed in was unsafe The unit we stayed in was unsafe. We were unable to use the fireplace without smoke filling the unit. This was even after calling the office and someone coming out to inspect the flute and ventilate the unit. (We also did their one log slow start to warm up the chimney they suggested over phone). The heat worked in the bedrooms but the main living area and kitchen got really chilly without the ability to use the fireplace not to mention the health risk to us and our 6 month old with smoke/ carbon monoxide filling the condo. When we got home everything we owned smelled like a camp fire. This should be addressed before renting this unit to anyone. Pros: proximity to village, clean, two nice size bedrooms on different levels for nice privacy, nice large hot tub with easy access from indoors. Decent for price if they figure out the fireplace issue. Cons: fireplace unsafe (cold in main living area without it), one small bathroom with small shower, lots of stairs (split level), uneven flooring in kitchen and bathroom.

GBWon’t book again The cabin it’s self was big and clean. But there was a few things that were not working like the cable Tv we had no tv all weekend. We had bought food to cook over the weekend the oven was not working and as soon as I turned it on it, it started to smoke the room, i thought it was going to catch on fire. Once the trip was over I wrote an email to then Christina, and she responded to me right away and was able to get me a compensation for those issues. Even though I did receive a compensation, I don’t think I would book again with big bear vacations to many inconveniences. Big bear vacations should make sure each every appliance in the cabin is working before renting it out.That is why I only gave it 2 stars.

GBTerrible Worst experience. We arrived at our cabin and it was filthy! EVERYTHING was dirty and there were mushrooms growing out of the wall! We called, emailed and even went into the office in person with no luck. We ended up leaving early. :( All of this during this pandemic as well. We had hoped to relax and ended up stressed out and out of pocket. Never again.

MXRun as fast as you can! Worst experience EVER!! If you are looking to stay at a filthy house, filled with animal fur, grease, broken furniture, roaches and other bugs, dog poop all over the garden and a really noisy furnace, then this is the please to be!! Not worth the 3 hours waiting line for the checkin at all! Worst spend money ever!!!

GBHorrible experience Horrible experience! None of the kitchen appliances were in working condition and unfortunately I did not find this out until after I bought a couple hundred dollars worth of groceries. The floors are so slippery that you will fall several times and hurt yourself. Several of us were bruised up and I myself could not move for a couple days after hitting the ground so hard. There are cobwebs everywhere and the beds are cheap and uncomfortable. The master bedroom is good size yet it has a queen bed that feels like it’s 20+ years old. I wish that I had something positive to say about the home I was in as well as the company big bear vacations, but unfortunately there’s nothing but negative words to say. They are not accommodating and are only interested in your money. Stay away at all costs. If it looks too good to be true, it most definitely is.
