Grandpa's Axe | Walk to Village + Hot Tub

Perfect for a small family or group of friends looking for a relaxing mountain getaway near downtown Big Bear, Grandpa's Axe is a unique and rustic two-level cabin within a short stroll of The Village. Enjoy easy access to shopping, dining, and entertainment, while grocery stores and the ski resorts are less than ten minutes away by car. After a full day of mountain adventures, return home to soak in your private hot tub under the stars or relax together on the spacious sun deck. Step inside to an authentic cabin atmosphere filled with warm woodsy accents and classic mountain character. The comfortable living room offers the perfect place to unwind, with a cozy couch positioned in front of the wood-burning fireplace for chilly Big Bear evenings. Settle in for a movie night with the flat-screen TV, Satellite Cable, and complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi provided for your convenience.

The entry level includes the first bedroom and hallway bathroom, while the upper level above the kitchen provides additional sleeping space. The entry-level bedroom features a full bed plus a twin-over-twin bunk bed, while the upstairs open loft bedroom offers a queen bed and TV with cable. Please note that the loft does not have a door. A hallway three-quarter bathroom with a shower is conveniently located on the entry level. Fresh linens, blankets, pillows, and shower towels are prepared for your arrival. Step up to the middle level, where the open kitchen and dining area provide a welcoming space for preparing meals and spending time together. Oak cabinetry is stocked with cookware and utensils, while ample counter space and general appliances make preparing home-cooked meals easy. Gather around the charming corner breakfast nook and dining table, with an additional table and chairs available on the loft landing. The open layout allows the chef of the group to stay connected with everyone while preparing breakfast, snacks, or dinner.

Direct access from the kitchen leads to the expansive sun deck and fully fenced backyard, giving your group plenty of outdoor space to enjoy the mountain surroundings. Relax on the provided patio furnishings, fire up the propane BBQ for dinner, or end an adventurous day with a peaceful soak in your private hot tub beneath the Big Bear stars. Flat year-round driveway parking and a private neighborhood setting add even more convenience to this charming mountain retreat.

    My friend and I loved this place! It’s an easy walk to the village and very comfortable. Communication was excellent throughout the weekend.

    Grandpa’s Axe was very comfortable and an easy (15 minute) stroll to Big Bear Village. The master bedroom had wonderful cross-breezes and we slept very well. Nice deck with hungry blue jays who love peanuts. Although we didn’t cook there, the kitchen seemed fully stocked. Altogether, a fun stay.

    There were a lot of cleanliness issues, everything else was fine. The check-in and access was great, as was the location and overall layout/cabin. As far as cleanliness, there was a large ball of someone’s hair on the stairs, candy bar crumbs on the coffee table, coffee grind sludge stuck to the bottom of the coffee mugs, lint/clumps of hair in the jacuzzi and its jets, hair in the shower and on the shower walls, and the jacuzzi itself made both myself and my partner itchy (although I assume this is chemicals but combined with the state of the water, it was nerve wracking). We are not very picky people with accommodations but I was genuinely disappointed with the level of cleanliness in this cabin. I’ve stayed with a couple of other companies in Big Bear and never had this come up; even in old, bare bones cabins. It was a bummer as our main point of booking was the jacuzzi.

    Overall good place to stay,especially with the awesome jacuzzi! For a small space it is very roomy,just a little tight getting in the front door due to kitchen cabinet being built out to door entrance. Kitchen does NOT have any extras like salt & pepper and minimum pots and pans and utensils so bring your own if you're stay is long and you'll be cooking. Biggest complaint is NO door mats!! So weird!! This is snow country for goodness sake!! Also no broom or MOP!! Had to use towels to make up for it..not good. Other than that, beds were comfy and had everything we needed...especially that awesome jacuzzi!

    Great communication with Ashley at check in. The place was very peaceful with just enough privacy. The house was clean, minus a few dishes which I prefer to clean prior to use anyways. Very cozy fit us four just fine.
