No AC in the cabin (except in the garage converted into a game room). Weather was cool enough once you open the windows/screened doors strategically. Fans were in every bedroom. The place was clean & tidy. Everything was already provided in the kitchen for 14 (cookware, bakeware, serveware, & toiletries as well). Rooms were spacious & beds extra comfy. All linens are clean. Expect a few cobwebs here & there as it is located in the mountain with wildlife everywhere. Beware of wasps especially near the hot tub. We also had an amusingly aggressive squirrel who liked to throw pine bark & cones down at us while we were enjoying the back porch. The hot tub was clean & fantastic! The lake water level was extremely low that the dock was dry ( but amazing for stargazing with no light pollution). Everything was as described/enjoyable for my family & the large TVs everywhere with great wifi was great! Only note is that we had a senior dog who had a very hard time with the steep, slippery stairs.

My family and I had the best time at this home! Location is very convenient to local parks and town if you need to pick anything up. The house has all the amenities and appliances you can think of. All the beds and rooms were clean and comfortable. The star of this home is the outdoor deck, with incredible a view of the lake. One thing to note is there is no AC in the main house as the listing notes, but there are ceiling and standalone fans in each room - we went on a particularly warm weekend so we just had to make sure we opened the windows and closed the curtains to keep the rooms cool. The garage does have AC so that was helpful! Would stay again on another trip to Big Bear.

We really enjoyed staying here. The house (unlike many others in Big Bear) is well maintained and upgraded. Massive backyard with private bay views and the game room is a lot of fun. There is an American restaurant and a (small but really good) pizza place in walking distance, the marina is literally around the corner and even the village is less than 10 minutes away. Definitely goes on our favorite list!!
