We do this annual family big bear trip where our mom loves to stay in the same house with everyone. But it’s so hard to find that kind of space. But then, we found the castle! This house was amazing, clean and everyone had their own space which was the most important since we all have little ones who take naps and have bedtime routines. Every room has a bathroom! The pink master had blackout curtains which sleep training moms know is a game changer. One of the best rentals we’ve stayed at ever size wise and amenities wise. Loved it!

The Host was very welcoming and helpful! The amenities definitely met and exceeded our expectations! The rooms having their own en suite was awesome! We enjoyed the pool table, arcade games and poker table. The large tables in the house were great to gather as a family and play games, eat and do puzzles. The place was very clean and had everything we needed and more. There was so much room for everyone to spread out and enjoy themselves! A perfect place for our family to get together to have fun and relax! Also, a close proximity to the ski slopes and Village. There was also a jacuzzi but we didn’t get a chance to use it! But it looked very nice.
