We loved our stay at Molly’s place! Check-in was quick and easy and the cabin is the perfect getaway in the mountains. The location is perfect to get to local restaurants and a view of the lake. We were cozy, warm and comfortable with a rainy couple of days in Big Bear. The cabin has a great details that makes it feel like home. Our favorite was the record player! We will definitely visit again and bring our kids.

В доме не имеется чердака, крыша сильно нагревается и нахождение в доме в дневное время не возможно (очень душно, жарко, не возможно дышать ) Это вызывало большой дискомфорт, отдых был испорчен. Было бы не плохо установить кондиционер.
