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.

Unresponsive, filthy and overpriced Unresponsive and the rates are too high. We paid way to much for cleaning and the places was filthy. Visible hair and dirt on the hard furniture. The upstairs bed was like a ROCK. I tried numerous times to email Big Bear vacations and noone ever responded to make it right. I will never book with them again.

Bad Customer Service We were made to wait for more than an hour when we arrived for check-in since the cabin was not ready yet. I asked if we will be getting a late checkout then to compensate for the delay which was attributable to them and we were told “maybe” but not guaranteed. Bad customer service right there.

Pluses and minuses + Good location + Well stocked kitchen + Spacious + High but reasonable cost compared to others - Less than clean (mostly dusty & cobwebs) - Spiders (one between the bed sheets) - Torn carpet = trip hazard - Furnace cycled on & off every few minutes. A programmable thermostat would easily fix that annoyance. - 4pm check-in, 10am checkout with fee for checking out even one minute late -- so you get 2-3/4 days for the price of 3 days - 15-page agreement (leaving no liability/responsibility for management & owner)

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.
