Response from the manager Hello Judy, First I want to thank you for posting a review on Yelp. All reviews are considered good reviews for Big Bear Vacations because we use them to further strive for excellence. I want you to know I have forwarded the information you posted to our Leadership for review, and we will take action to improve the original property you booked. I am very sorry we did not have more move options available for you during your stay, as it is not always our intent to "upsell." I really like the Condo you were moved to called Avalanche Zone 1456...I am sorry it wasn't what you hoped, but it is actually the same rate as the original home you booked. It would be an honor to have an opportunity to earn a better rating from you sometime in the future. We have over 325 properties in the Big Bear Lake area, and I believe one of them would be just perfect for you and your family. No matter what I do hope all good things for you and yours, and I hope all your future vacations go seamlessly.
