American Black Bear. Perfect Location

Cute but definitely need to be a non smoking place it’s smell

Absolute 5 stars! Exactly as advertised, awesome location and above and beyond communication. You will not be disappointed.

We absolutely love the location of this place. You walk right out the front door and you are in the middle of the village which is an awesome feeling. Unit itself is a bit dated but you felt like you are in an episode of twin peeks out in the mountains. It was perfect for us and our overnight trip for our anniversary photo was walking right across the street from the front door.

perfect location!

It was hot in big bear. Place had no central a/c. Room was still hot at night which made it hard to sleep, even though there was a portable a/c unit and it cooled down at night. When we left the rental, the caretaker blamed us for a lamp that was broke and stated they would contact the owner to see how much we would need to reimburse them. We didn’t break anything, and only after a request for a review was sent to us, the caretaker said they would disregarded any charges. We did not appreciate the accusations because we are good renters, we have rented through Vrbo for several years, we left the unit better than we found it, we never broke any items in the rental, and the rental was not enjoyable due to lack of central a/c. I would not rent this place again nor would I recommend it to anyone.

The unit was very cozy and perfect for our stay. Close to the lake and down the street from souvenir shops!

Stayed here for a quick trip to pick our daughter from camp. Location was perfect! Such ease to check in. Communication was great. Would recommend it to anyone wanting to park their car and roam around town on foot.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Great location and comfortable amenities.

Great location by lots of restaurants and also great proximity to lake. Dog friendly and the host was kind enough to let us check in early without asking (as it permitted) thank you!

Clean well stocked property in a great location and easy check in process. Highly recommend

We loved this place. The property manager responded quickly. The check in process was easy and smooth. Location was perfect in the village with shops and restaurants right outside your door. The rooms were clean and even though you are on the main street in the village it was quiet in the room. Enjoyed having a kitchen and cooking utensils. Note for people coming is that yes, the kitchen is fully functional but you do need to bring your own spices, condiments, foil, etc. Not a knock on the property at all just giving people a heads up if that was a question. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would 100% recommend.

This was the perfect place to stay for a weekend getaway. The place was cozy, spacious, and had everything needed. Best of all, it was right in the middle of all the action downtown, so coffee, dinner, and shops were all footsteps away. Despite it being located downtown, it was still quiet inside.

We had a great visit. The location is great for walking to dinner. It’s right in the village and was still quiet. An AC was provided which was nice since it was a little warm out. It’s a bit rustic, but that is to be expected when visiting the mountains.

I chose this place because of its location and price. After staying here, I would bet it is one of the best vrbo values in Big Bear. There are 19 steps in the staircase, so make sure you can manage that prior to booking. If that isn't an issue I highly recommend this property.
