Beautiful Mountain Retreat w/Hot Tub, Game Room, minutes away from Skiing/Lake

This is such a lovely home for a family gathering, with great spaces to enjoy as a group as well as ample rooms for everyone to have some privacy. The beds and sheets were very comfortable, plenty of towels, a fully appointed kitchen, all in a wonderful location. Would stay again!

The property had such great space for our family to gather and enjoy all that Big Bear has to offer! Great location, too!

We had 12 adults & 2 toddlers with us & found this to be a great stay for 3 nights over the holidays. It's close to groceries & most anything you'd want to do in Big Bear. You can't park on the street, but we fit a suburban in the garage and 3 full size trucks with crew cabs & 8' beds in the driveway just fine. The kitchen is well stocked & there's plenty of places to hang out. If the trash cans on site are full, you have to drop it off downtown at a disposal facility- something that applied to our larger group. Check out procedures are super low key- so that's a big plus in the vacation rental world from our experience. We would stay again.

The property was nice. It was July, so a bit warm without any air conditioning available during warmest part of day. Would have been nice to have. The caroet in the Master Bedroom was quite soiled and would have been nice to have clean carpet for the price paid, and caliber of home. Lastly, tje toilets would not flush fully regularly. Tjat would have been nice to have fixed. Otjer than tjese inconveniences, that would have been better at a hotel, and less expensive, the stay was nice.

The cabin was amazing! Located In one of the most beautiful places in big bear. The cabin was very clean and everything we needed was there. The property manager was very sweet and answered all our questions. Gretchen even authorized a special request which was greatly appreciated. Without it, we probably would’ve ended up in another cabin and we would’ve missed out on all of the comforts and experiences of her lovely cabin. We even got to see some wildlife while taking our nightly walks. A family of coyotes that cross her property every night would greet us with their presence. The beautiful memories we have while staying in this cabin will be with us forever. Thank you ?

Had an amazing getaway with my family. The Mannistos have a beautiful house and are great hosts. Easy communication as well. Thank you!

This house we stayed at was beautiful, spacious and well stocked with all your cooking needs. What we liked most was the space! The photos do not do this house justice. Memories were made and we had a lot of fun in the snow at this beautiful location.

We booked this trip with our close friends as a winter getaway. The layout of the home was perfect for allowing us both to have separate spaces when our little ones needed rest, but also plenty of common gathering areas. The residential neighborhood was absolutely beautiful and felt tucked away from the bustle of the busy areas in Big Bear. It was close to snowboarding and tubing and restaurants and everything we needed.

We went up to Big Bear for the weekend with a group of old friends. It was great to get away and catch up. This home is centrally located and was very close to where the Oktoberfest is held. We enjoyed attending it and it was the first time for many. The house was ideal for our size group and it was set up perfectly. Highly recommend this home for gathering of both families and friends.

Every year we choose a different home to rent for the weekend, but we all agreed that this is one we want to return to! This property was so spacious, plenty of room for all who came. There was so much to do inside of the home that we did not leave until we left home. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed for some great meals. I was already excited to return before we even left. Thank you for being a great host, Gretchen!
