      Nice Home But With Some Major Problems

      Left on 01/23/2012 for a stay in December 2011

      I decided to spend extra money to stay at this property during our visit to Big Bear. Upon our arrival, the kids and I were excited by the nice, new appearance of our rental house. However, during our stay, we discovered some major problems with this property. When we all headed to the bedrooms to get some sleep, we discovered that two of the bedrooms were very chilly. I found that warm air was being pushed out the heating vent in the master bedroom, but nothing was coming out of the vents in the other two bedrooms where the kids were going to be sleeping. I think it's pretty obvious that the ductwork going to the heating vents in those two bedrooms was not done properly when the house was built. Secondly, we noticed, upon first entering the house, that the carpet was very wet going from the sliding door in the dining room all the way into the living room area. By the second night of our stay, we noticed that water was oozing up between the tiles in the kitchen area when we walked there. Either a water pipe had split somewhere, or this is another design/construction problem with this home. Thirdly, the Big Bear Vacations website advertises a nice Jacuzzi tube in the master bathroom. It sounds appealing. After our first day of skiing, I decided to check it out. I found that the jets in the Jacuzzi wouldn't turn on, and the switch looked like it was broken. Furthermore, before I got the tub completely filled, the water coming out of the faucet was cold. We had six people in our group, and nobody else had taken a shower or bath that evening!! Obviously, the capacity of the water heater is completely inadequate. Considering how much we spent for this rental and the problems we had, I think we got ripped off. I left a message with Big Bear Vacations and asked them to call me back. They never did. I think we deserve a partial refund or some sort of compensation from Big Bear Vacations. I doubt if they'll be that honorable.

      Worse Holiday Stay Ever!

      Left on 12/29/2011 for a stay in December 2011

      The kitchen floor flooded and water went to the entire dininig room and part of the living room carpet area. There were plumbers and people coming in and out on Christmas Eve & Day. We were never relocated to another house, therefore had to cope with the water, smell & bad service of the management company. We checked out 1 day before, since we could not stand the smell of the wet carpet. To top it off, we were not compensated for our troubles and were only reimbursed the 1 night, taxes & cleaning fee...I will never rent from this management company again!

      Great experience and would definately return

      Left on 01/02/2011 for a stay in December 2010

      The please was very nice, however, when we arrived the bbq was broken and the house did not have a broom or vacuum which was a big necessity. Customer service was very helpful and got us a bbq grill and a broom to get us through our stay.

      Ponderosa! #458,

      Left on 01/06/2010 for a stay in December 2009

      The house needs some work. It was completely bare, no wall furnishings, it felt like someone had just moved in. This house had no 'feel" to it whatsoever, we left our vacation early.

      Som eother things to point out:
      There were only 3 glasses in the kitchen and hardly enough kitchen utensils. Towel bars and toliet paper holders in the master bathroom were missing/broken.

      When we arrived, the key to front door did not work and we could not lock the house except from the inside.

      Thanksgiving Holiday

      Left on 12/12/2009 for a stay in November 2009

      This was my second family vacation in Big Bear with BB vacatons.com. Over all it was very enjoyable. The staff was very friendly and helpful. We did not expect snow, and to our surprise, we got it the day after Thanksgiving. We had to get snow chains for both of our vehicles. This was a little costly, but then again..we were in Big Bear. I would definately recommend this cabin to family and friends, and I would be comfortable to rent it again.

      A Wish Come True

      Left on 01/22/2009 for a stay in January 2009

      We are a foundation that helps Pediatric Cancer patients, we rented this home to grant a wish for a patient who had never been to the snow. The cabin was absolutely amazing, a "dream come true". The family truly enjoyed everything about the cabin.

      The people at Big Bear Vacations were amazing and very helpful, as were the people from The Little Green House Florist and Bear Mountain Resort. I can not tell you what this trip meant to the family that went to the cabin. Thank you all for making a boys dream come true.
