** Bear Suites Village Inn Rules **

Welcome to the rules for Bear Suites Village Inn - Grizzly Bear Suite. Our aim is to maintain a harmonious environment that aligns with local Code Compliance and respects the comfort of all guests. As part of this effort, we've established some friendly but firm and inflexible house guidelines.

1. Maximum Occupancy: 4 guests (4 adults max).

2. Parking: Space for 1 vehicle. Exceeding the limit may result in fines of up to $1,000.

3. Pets: Pets Allowed (Max: 2 pets).

- Pet Guidelines:
** Kennel pets when unattended.
** Keep off furniture/beds.
** Clean up after them.
** Charges apply for pet damages.
*** Coyote Warning: *** Coyotes are extremely prevalent in Big Bear, even in the most densely populated areas. If you see one, you can bet they're part of an unseen pack. These animals are bold and territorial. They pose a significant threat to pets. For their safety, never leave your pets unattended, even in fenced areas, especially after dark. Coyotes are known for their ability to overcome barriers, including high fences. And they're even known for attacking pets that are on a leash. We cannot overstate the need for heightened vigilance concerning your pets' safety.

4. Check-In: Conducted at The Village Office for a warm welcome and local code compliance.

5. Noise: Quiet hours from 9 pm to 8 am. You are not allowed to be outside, in a hot tub, play music or create any noise from inside of the residence that could be heard outside of the home. If these rules are violated, Code Enforcement could impose fines of up to $1,000 or eviction. (We have no control over Code Enforcement's decisions.)

6. Air Conditioning: NO Central AC.

7. Ants: Sometimes our ants can be a bit over-friendly. To keep these small visitors at bay, we suggest promptly cleaning up right after each meal and don't leave food out. (We do use ant bait & ant traps… and the ants tend to look at those as snacks.)

8. Trash: You are mandated by ordinance to dispose of your trash at the designated trash site. If you require assistance, we can arrange a pick-up service for a nominal fee.

9. Video Surveillance & Noise Monitors: We employ external video surveillance and noise monitors at most of our properties. (We do not have video or audio monitoring inside of the residences.)

10. No Smoking/Vaping: We have a very strict No Smoking and/ or No Vaping policy on the grounds of all of our properties.
* If any guest smokes or vapes on the premises during their stay, a minimum cleaning fee of $750 will be charged automatically to the Credit Card on file to cover the cost of carpets cleaning, dry cleaning of all bedspreads, curtains, etc. And the security deposit will be forfeited.

11. Age: Minimum booking age is 18.

12. Parties: No parties allowed; parties will result in immediate eviction and forfeiture of the security deposit. Additional cleaning fees may apply.

Convenient and comfy
We enjoyed our stay in the Grizzly Bear village inn suite. It’s location made it so easy to head out to the village for food and shopping. The suite was clean and had all the essentials for a comfy stay - bathroom and kitchen essentials, clean towels and lots of clean puffy pillows. Check in and check out were so easy! No keys to fuss with when entering and leaving the suite was a great plus. We were able to check in early - the property manager sent a text about the suite being available before the 3pm check-in, and it worked perfectly with our unexpected early arrival. Parking conveniently located in back. Overall we were very pleased and look forward to staying here again.

Great Dog Friendly Spot!
This was our first time in Big Bear and this rental was perfect for us! The location is killer, right in the little downtown area and next to great restaurants and bars and coffee shops. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go from the apartment. We stayed with our dog, and the process to book was super quick and easy. The host was very helpful and quick to respond to any and all messages or questions we had. 10/10 would definitely book again!

Like others commented, the place is old but the price and location more than makes up for it. Light sleepers should bring a fan to drown out your neighbors. Thin walls and floors.

Older property but a great stay
We stayed in this vrbo for one night. It was an older room that has not been updated in some time. However, for the price and location, this room was perfectly sufficient for our needs. The location is perfect - right in the village and within walking distance of many stores and the lake. The communication with the front staff was great, and I felt safe in the location.
