Family Ski trip
Better than we expected. The kitchen is stocked with everything you would need. It was very clean, great location. The layout is great for a family or a group of friends. The backyard is big and fenced in and the dog we brought had a great time running in the snow out back! Would definitely book this property again

Relaxing retreat
The home was well-stocked, clean and very large! I feel like the pictures did not do it justice and the home was bigger than what the pictures showed. The neighborhood was really quiet and peaceful. The beds were really comfortable and there was plenty of space in common areas to hang out. The check in and check out process was super easy and communication with Destination Big Bear was very clear and accessible. I would definitely recommend this home or any other home managed by Destination Big Bear.
