Knickerbocker Mansion and Estates

Not only is this historic property a gem, Patrick, owner/operator is as well! He is busy working on this project and recently opened. His love for the property shows with creative and thoughtful details throughout. He happened to see us drive up and gave a welcoming smile and waved us up the hill. He then proceeded to give us a tour of the facilities and our room. Each unit is unique and impeccably furnished with tons of detail, Patrick has converted this early 1900s hillside retreat into a beautiful modernized destination without losing its rustic charm. Its layout blends into the landscape with plenty of activities onsite for the family. Heck he just hosted a wedding there which definitely must have been a hit with plenty of area for guests to enjoy the festivities. This location is walking distance as well from the popular Village area with tons of restaurants and shopping. Another thing, I told Patrick before we even spent the night and, really looked around that my wife and I would be back! See ya soon and continued good luck Patrick! T

I booked the Estate House for the 4th of July weekend and my family loved it. The house was spacious and everyone had their own room with a bathroom. It was clean and really felt like a home. The property had common areas that provided fun entertainment for my family and the ability to make other friends with our neighbors. The property owners were so nice and helpful. They made sure we had everything we needed and answered questions quickly. This is probably one of the best property I have stayed in Big Bear.

Beautiful setting and very helpful staff!

Great Property! Spacious grounds and cozy lodge room. Walking distance to Big Bear Village. Patrick was very nice and had great suggestions. Thanks for recommending the chair lift to the top of the mountain. We'll be coming back!
