The hot tub is provided for your use and the water has been treated to ensure it is correctly balanced. Hot tubs pose similar risks to swimming pools, as well as having their own dangers. Here are some hot tub safety rules:

1) The hot tub is to be used responsibly and it is not to be used as a substitute wading pool by children. Allowing children to jump or dive into the water is not permitted under any circumstances. Children must not use the spa unsupervised at any time. No infants or toddlers in the spa.
2) Please shower before using the spa to remove make-up, sun screen, insect repellent or any oil-based products.
3) Only clean swimwear may be worn in the spa as the chemicals in the water will remove the colored dyes found in ordinary clothing, causing them to leach into the water and turn it cloudy.
4) Prevent accidental drowning. Leave the hot tub cover on and latched when the spa is unsupervised.
5) Prevent Hyperthermia. Understand that alcohol and other medications greatly increase the chance of hyperthermia. This occurs when the internal body temperature reaches several degrees above the normal temperature of 98.6 degrees.
6) Keep all glass AWAY from the spa.
7) Pregnant women and elderly people should consult their doctor before using the spa.
8) Do not use the spa if you are under the influence of alcohol.
9) No smoking is permitted in or around the spa.
10) People with cuts or external infections should not use the spa.

If we need to clean and drain the refill the spa after your use, you will be charged the cleaning fee of $70. No exceptions.

Use the clips to secure the hot tub cover when not in use. Do not lay and stand on the cover!

Perfect Family Vacation!
The Doe Creek Cottage was the perfect house for our family getaway! It was in a great location, making all of the Big Bear activities easily accessible. The property owners were very responsive in all aspects of the stay, promptly responding to a couple of questions and even having batteries delivered so our kids could enjoy the Wii!

Beautiful Big Bear Getaway Cabin
This review will be so easy because it will be so positive. First, if you are wondering if the photos are accurate - they are but they don't capture as much as the cabin has to offer. When we first walked in, my jaw dropped because it's so large. The layout of the cabin is perfect. The cabin was spotless. It is nestled on a large piece of property that has plenty of trees that provide shade all day. In fact, when we first arrived, I thought the place had AC because I was kind of cold but found out there is no AC but we never missed it because it's just super cool inside. Must be insulated very well plus the shade of the trees provides so much protection from sun. The living room has a very warm and inviting feel. I love that if you are in the kitchen, you can see what's going on in the living room and TV. The TV is awesome! We were very pleasantly surprised at how clean the jacuzzi was. There were windows everywhere and while I was very happy about that, I was more happy that the window cils were super clean. Each room is very comfortable, complete with places to sit in addition to sleeping. The master bathroom was incredible! The shower and bathtub - so beautiful - in fact, the entire cabin is furnished with the nicest appliances, and top notch decor. The only thing that I thought about while there were the lights used for the recessed lighting in the living room. They are super bright and the lighting kind of takes away from the overall homey cozy feel. I also wished that the bench on the front porch was a swing instead of a stationery bench. Our dogs loved the outdoor property. There's lots of room for them to run around and while I checked our dogs' paws daily for burrs they may have accumulated, there were none. The street is quiet. I saw a review where someone was talking about the close proximity to a school. First, the cabin is several blocks up from the school. Second, the only portion of the school that you can see from the front porch is a very nice outdoor track field. We were there during the week when school was in session and we never heard a thing. The only kids we saw were those that were on the track and field team and we saw a group run by the cabin in the afternoon - to us, it was entertaining and we clapped and cheered them on. I can’t wait to go back. Thanks to our hosts who were responsive and helpful. This will be our go-to Big Bear cabin for the foreseeable future.

Amazing Time was had by All.
We had a great trip celebrating my husbands birthday with our 9 year old daughter, 6 year old nephew and family. It was the kids first time in snow and the huge backyard was packed with snow! The house was beautiful and VERY family friendly with foosball, DVDS, video games and more. The owner thought of everything from a coffee bar set up to games the whole family can play. The house is very close to town but far enough away that it isn’t too busy. We would definitely go back!

Great space for family time.
This property was perfect for what we needed. We took our kids (ages 3, 5 and 7) up to Big Bear to relax and have some time together as a family. The house was perfect for that. It has an open floor plan that allowed us all to be together to watch movies, play games, play foosball, cook/bake together. It’s in a really central location and close to everything, yet in a quiet neighborhood. We really enjoyed our time there and our kids didn’t want to leave!! Owner was very easy to communicate with and check-in/check-out was a breeze. I highly recommend this property.

Mixed review
This property is in a very good location, a nice size with a very cute look. The property owners were very responsive and took care of a couple of issues we had as soon as we reached out. A big negative though is the very loud and noisy heating system. It kept us up most of the two nights we were there. It turned on and off all night with a booming noise. In addition it was way too hot in the bedrooms but stayed cold in the main living areas. Sorry that we can’t give our experience a more positive review but sleep is a #1 factor for enjoying a get away. In addition this home needs updating - new cabinets and better linens. We couldn’t find any extra pillow cases or towels and master mattress very lumpy. We had a nice weekend, enjoyed the jacuzzi and the space but needed sleep!
