Perfect Christmas Cabin mini-getaway
We wouldn't find a complaint if we tried. We drove just over 5 hours specifically to stay here for a quiet weekends with just my husband and I and our dog. We second everything every other perfect 5/5 review says. We have only positive things to say. It couldn't have been a better weekend at Big Bear Lodge. Thank you, Sigrid and Brian!

#1 Cabin in the North.
This is our 4th year at this Cabin and it never disappoints. The property is exceptionally maintained, and provisioned; you don’t have to bring anything but your food. In addition every year there is a new improvement that is made to the property to add comfort, convenience or reliability. Don’t skip over this one, if it’s available book it.

Comfortable Clean Home
We had a wonderful stay at this property. There was a group of 10 of us, all senior citizens, and the property was perfect. The property owner was very responsive, answered all questions and even gave us info regarding things going on in the area. Would definitely recommend this to anyone, especially families during the winter. Wonderful Places to do some sledding right on the property!

Perfect get away location
We loved our stay at Big Bear! Its so idyllic and well stocked. We loved the hot tub, the pond, all the room inside to spread out and spend time together. The owner was great with communication and you could tell that they actually use the place because it had everything we needed.

Great place for a group!
We stayed here for a vacation with our extended family (group of 13) and there was plenty of room for everyone! We even used the pool and hot tub next door at the campground a few times. The host was very helpful and responsive to any needs we had. The house was well stocked and offered many extras like popcorn and s’mores… would definitely consider renting again in the future.

We spent a family vacation here over memorial day weekend. The property is great. Very spacious and quiet. It is stocked with everything you could need and then some. The owners are very accommodating. They made sure we had everything we needed and gave us advice on things to do in the area. We will definitely be returning.

Weekend Getaway
The property is beautiful. The top deck is great for sitting out and relaxing on. The blackstone was great for grilling out and the seating options were amazing. There was a great selection of rooms for everyone. The kitchen had everything you would need. The main floor and bottom floor were great for hanging out. The hot tub and fire pit were easy to use. The access to the bottom floor bathroom was awesome. Overall a great place to go for a relaxing weekend and get away.
