Forest Trail Retreat by Destination Big Bear : Walk to the Lake for Fishing & Kayaking! Near Ski Resorts! HOT TUB! Foosball!

The home was clean the area was quiet it was a beautiful experience for my family and I and we cant wait to come back. The host was readily avaliable if we needed anything. There was also near by markets and ski rental stores.

Everything was as stated in the description, very short drive distance to the village. And even shorter drive or walk to the lake :)

Host was welcoming and everything worked perfectly! Great location near Big Bear Lake and The Village. Definitely would stay here again!

Very cozy and clean. The only thing I can add is that the couch was very uncomfortable! Other than that, it was the perfect little cabin for a short stay.

The location is terrific although there is no direct lake access, the house is surrounded by private properties with no lake access. The marina is walking distance but there is no fishing/lake access there either. We enjoyed out stay here but some things could use some TLC: the downstairs bathroom tub would not drain, the upstairs shower head is extremely loose, the shower glass door was hard to open, the game room tv remotes wouldn’t work and some of the outlets didn’t work or the extension cords didn’t work so we weren’t able to use the ceiling fan in the upstairs room. There’s also a random basketball hoop in the backyard. We did appreciate how close to town we were and the neighborhood. The rooms were spacious and the bedding was clean. The hot tub was clean as well! The slight issues didn’t affect our stay one bit, I just don’t think they’re being reported to the office.

Nice place clean , but the foosball table was for kids and the front and back deck could use some more serious work. The screws are all above board, making it a tripping hazard or an injury. but besides that we had a great time we like to place and we would definitely stay again.

Good value for the money

We had a wonderful time at this cabin. It was clean and bigger than I expected. A remarkable price and worth the trip. We were disappointed that the Hot tub as advertised was not working thus I would’ve given this 5 stars. But we were able to check out late and that was deeply appreciated. Overall I would rebook.

We really enjoyed our stay! The only downside, was the lack of fans for the upstairs. Having an 8-month-old and a 3-year-old, plus my husband and I… we didn’t get much sleep due to the heat upstairs. Other than that, the kitchen was stocked with appliances and kitchen necessities that we need to cook every night. My toddler cried when we left, he loved it so much & so did we!

This home needs some updates but it's fine for a short stay. We were looking forward to sledding in the backyard, which would have been perfect because of the slope and space, but there wasn't much snow. I like that there are 3 bedrooms upstairs and one with a futon/couch downstairs. The hot tub was lovely. No bubbles but great temp for a cold night. The neighborhood is very nice.

We enjoyed our time hanging out at the house. We walked around the neighborhood which provided nice views near water. The location is close to the main strip in town so it's easy to get everywhere. We just wished the hot tub was working.
