Won’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.

The house was not clean upon arrival… The house was not clean upon arrival not stocked with towels, toilet paper, etc. We reached out to the office multiple times and waited several hours for a cleaning “crew” to arrive - which consisted of one woman with her daughter. They did not finish up until midnight on our first night. I felt terrible for the two of them, as I’m sure the oversight was not their fault. The only silver lining was that we were reimbursed for that first night’s stay. It wasn’t a great first experience that’s for sure.

The Cozy Cottage we rented was in a… The Cozy Cottage we rented was in a fabulous location next to the Snow Summit ski area with lots of snow play surrounding the house. That was the reason we rented the property. The house itself was large enough for all 10 of us. However, there were lots of problems with the house itself. The cleaning staff needs to be changed as there were dirty socks in the downstairs bed indicating the linens had not been changed. The handle on the sink in the bathroom was broken making it hard to use. A space heater has to be brought in for the bedroom without a heater vent. There was a white pill of some kind on the bedroom floor indicating the floor had not been vacuumed. Shower was corroded. Water dribbled out. Kitchen tabletop was not attached to the base and kept falling off.

The 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.

Nightmare, horrible customer service Subject: Unpleasant Stay at Fisher Man Paradise - Reservation No. 234100 I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with our recent stay at the Fisher Man Paradise property under Reservation No. 234100. Upon our arrival on Saturday, January 13, at 4:30 pm, we were surprised to find the house in an unclean state. Despite our immediate complaint, the company's response only involved sending two cleaning ladies who addressed some of the issues, such as vacuuming and cleaning the bathrooms. Our problems persisted when attempting to wash the couch bed's sheets, leading to a significant leak and, subsequently, a safety concern. Despite the intervention of a maintenance person, we were left uneasy about our safety until the early morning hours due to the potential electrical hazard. It was a nightmare!! Seeking resolution, we visited the rental main office the next day and spoke with Louis, expressing our disappointment. Unfortunately, our concerns were not met with the desired level of customer service, and our request for a refund for that night was denied. Overall, our experience was marred by cleanliness issues, safety concerns, and a lack of satisfactory customer service. We hope that our feedback will prevent new guests from being scammed.
