About this cabin rental

Located in Big Bear, this attractive cabin for $204 per night is a great choice for your next vacation. Stay at one of the most unique locations in the Big Bear Valley. Our beautiful mountain cabin is just across the street from Big Bear Lake's shoreline, and backs to a mountain from the vast San Bernardino National Forest. If you're looking to get away from City stress, it doesn't get much better than our "Alpine Lake Cabin". The home is two bedrooms one bath with enough accommodations for up to four guests and parking for one vehicle. It has a fully equipped kitchen, wood burning fireplace, satellite TV, charcoal BBQ and breathtaking views from most rooms in the cabin. Bedroom one has a queen bed and bedroom two has two twin beds. We recommend this cabin for nature enthusiasts, small family retreats, and private couple getaways. The cabin was built on the side of the mountain at an elevated position in order to maximize the beautiful views of the lake.

We loved this cabin overlooking Big Bear lake. The view was the best part for sure! The place was very clean, and though it is cold outside this time of year, the cabin has plenty of heaters and blankets. The lack of wifi / internet access was kind of buried in the listing so take note (we thought we read the listing thoroughly but somehow we missed that!) and the cell service isn’t great either, so if you need to do work or any video calls, this is a place best suited to someone who plans to completely unplug. Fortunately we downloaded a bunch of movies before we came to the cabin, since we could not stream any movies (there aren’t many playable DVDs.) The kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, dishes and utensils, but there was no cooking oil or salt and not much coffee, and the nearest grocery store is about 30 minutes away (there are some small markets and liquor stores about 10 mins away). So plan accordingly! Other than that the place was lovely, we really enjoyed using the fireplace and walking to a nearby fishing area. Would stay here again!

This is a great location with a stunning view of the lake. The best part of the house is a huge balcony looking onto the lake. Extremely clean and the host was very responsive. FYI - Apple Maps tells you it’s on the opposite side of the road.

The cabin is old but too be expected based on the listing photos. Check-in was standard as with any other VRBO. however the minute we walked in the house there were several oil diffusers in the house making a very strong smell. We ended up moving all of them outside and then understood why. The cabin smelled musty after we moved the diffusers. That wasn’t a deal breaker but it was not pleasant. The deal breaker is when we were washing dishes after putting out kids to bed the first night (4 month old and 2 year old). I walked by the water heater closet and smelt something like unburnt gas or very poor ventilation. I opened the closet to see if there was a problem and the amount of fumes that came out made me cough. We thought there might be a gas leak of some sort so we texted the overnight emergency number. We were told to leave the cabin, this is was about 11 at night and they were going to call the gas company to come check on the residence. At this point, I made the decision to pack my family up and drive home as we were not comfortable staying in the cabin, it was high 30 degrees outside and I wasn’t going to keep my family waiting in the car until a gas company technician arrived. No ETA was given by the emergency contact and it’s fair to say it would be hours until someone arrived. After returning home, I contact VRBO and requested a refund based the circumstances and they denied my refund.

This is an absolutely gem of a cabin. For a true cabin feel in big bear, STAY HERE. everything is clean, well thought out, tiny details thought of. The view is STUNNING. Woke up to catch the sunrise both mornings, saw a juvenile bald eagle gliding over the lake. Beautiful views of the night stars. The deck is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or tea. Close enough to everything to not feel like it’s a journey, far enough to be able to enjoy the serene peacefulness of Big Bear Lake. WILL be staying here again!

Well It was a pleasant stay except the cabin is dated with too many rocking chairs (4) and Too many decor pillows. Not aware of all the stairs with toddlers, Deck needs painting and no nice patio furniture to relax in, Full size bed in one room was not comfortable, sunken on side. Snow scene in ad of cabin is deceptive as looked beautiful but it’s dated. Stars and cost not Equivalent! Best is beautiful view of lake!!
