Golden Oak Estate by Destination Big Bear : Luxury Log Home in Castle Glen! Walk to the Lake! Beautiful Mountain Views!

It was a very nice cabin.

A perfect place for 14 of us at a family reunion. Activities for everyone all ages. Loved the house. Wonderful space for us all to be together and plenty of private spaces when you needed some alone time

The house is very nice with large and numerous spaces for a large family reunion. It sleeps 16, however, not very comfortably. There are six bedrooms, but only the master has a comfortable bed. The dual queen bedroom in the basement has beds that are hard as a rock. The upper floor queen bed is worn out-soft, and the rest of the beds are either bunks or futon mattresses. The kitchen is very large with great island, lots of counter space, nice range & oven, and Keurig coffee machine and nice microwave. However, the refrigerator was too small for our extended family of 14 and offered no water or ice maker. This was a surprise, considering the price and the luxury nature of the home. Note, you will have to buy bags of ice. Also, there were numerous kitchen implements and post & pans, although most of the pans looked like thrift store cast offs. We thoroughly enjoyed the theater room, the pool table/ping pong table and grand piano. The kids enjoyed the hot tub, and the deck was delightful in the evenings. However, the pond was covered by scum and the back yard was off limits. The front yard featured a horse shoe pit and a long driveway which handled the multiple cars of the various family members who drove up the mountain to meet here. A great feature of the home is its proximity to two major supermarkets, just down the hill. Overall, we had a great family reunion here.

This is an awesome home. Very well appointed and large enough for everyone to have their space - and the in-home movie theater was a huge hit with the kids. The booking and check in, check out process was quick and easy. Overall, a great vacation.

We absolutely loved how big and open the house was. We cooked and ate dinner in the big open kitchen/dining/living room space. It was nice because the basement also provides a lot of hang out area. We truly loved it. We walked to lunch one day, but be warned, it is a steep walk back up to the house (although definitely doable!). We loved it so much, someone our party booked the same house later in the summer.

Excellent, large family home. Enough rooms for multiple guests, plenty of room.

We loved having different areas to hang out. We’d watch football upstairs and simultaneously play video games/watch movies downstairs. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to rent another property unless it has a home theater like this. It was the best part of our stay! (Plus the game room just adjacent)

Great place great location Our family had a wonderful time! The movie theater was a big hit. The grounds beautiful! Game room was fun! ??

We had the most wonderful reunion at Castle Glen Estates with the grandparents, kids, and grandkids! This house was perfect for our group of 8 adults and 6 kids; never once did we feel cramped. The house was very clean. The theater room was a hit, as was the game room and piano. The kitchen is well-stocked and very well-organized. The main area is gorgeous. This was my first time booking with Destination Big Bear, so I wasn’t sure exactly how things worked. It ended up being pretty straightforward with almost all communication coming through text messages, which I ended up appreciating. This is probably the most flawless rental experience I have had. Thank you Destination Big Bear for a memorable trip, and we cannot wait to return to Castle Glen!

Nice property and we had fun around the house has to offer. Area is closer to grocery stores and gas station.

I give this place 4 out of 5 stars just because a couple things like TV didn’t work and jacuzzi water didn’t get that hot. Other then that house was amazing. My whole family had a blast watching movies in the movie room and playing pool and table tennis. Would definitely book this house again I’m the future.
