Fantastic location, cabin decor great for the lake, we had a Beautiful white Christmas

We were within 8 minutes walk of the village and also walked around the lake after it snowed on Christmas Eve it was so beautiful. Everything was perfectly clean amenities were great as stated. the welcome basket was very welcome especially the sunscreen for the snowboarding. The property management people were immediately responsive to the couple of small issues. we had would love to return . Australian family

Incredible Holiday Get-Away!

Thank you Sharon, for sharing your beautiful cabin with us during Thanksgiving break. We had the BEST time in Big Bear and especially enjoyed our time spent in the 4 Seasons of Fun Cabin!!! We arrived on Monday and checked out on Saturday (after Thanksgiving). Checking in at the Property Management company was quick and easy. I was so appreciative that they had firewood and starters for us to purchase right then and there.....so convenient! They gave us everything we needed and we were on our way.

We arrived to the cabin at about 5:00pm and fell in love immediately! The gorgeous porch with wooden rockers. The beautiful views and the quiet street....perfect! Once inside, we couldn't have been any happier. The cabin is decorated so comfortably and cozy and warm. Everything you could possibly think of is there for you.....a fully stocked beautiful kitchen, a warm and inviting family room with plenty of couch space and blankets all topped off with an incredible fireplace ready to keep us toasty for the week. The bedrooms are fabulous.....great space, comfortable sleeping arrangements and the feeling of being at a home away from home. Each bed had a heating blanket on it which was such a pleasant surprise! We had tons of space and literally felt so relaxed the entire week.

We spent the week being lazy in the cabin, sleeping in, playing games, watching holiday movies and then walking in to the Village each evening for shopping, meals and movies. The cabin is stocked with tons of movies, games and books. Sharon was so sweet to have welcomed us in to her cabin with a "Happy Thanksgiving" chalk sign and a bin full of treats and goodies for my teenage children. It was the sweet icing on the cake! From the time we arrived on Monday evening, to the time we left on Saturday morning, I did not touch my car. The cabin is centrally located to everything you could need. The Red Barn Bowling Alley is a 5 minute walk. The Village main street is a 5 minute walk. The lake is directly across the street. There is a jacuzzi on the front porch that was AMAZING. We would sit and relax in the lovely hot jacuzzi while looking over the beautiful lake, feeling the brisk air and smelling the goodness of the mountains all around us!

I can't say enough wonderful things about our Thanksgiving vacation!! This cabin is GORGEOUS, the location is the BEST and Sharon and her team are AMAZING. We can't wait to visit again. Thank you - Thank you - Thank you

Great Location near Big Bear Village

We enjoyed our recent visit to Big Bear staying in the 4Seasons cabin. The highlight is the location. It is an easy walk into Big Bear Village. Our family enjoyed the sights, people, shops, and restaurants in the village. We were also close to Action Zipline Tours and Big Bear Alpine Slide. The cabin is across the street from Big Bear Lake (the water level is low at present due to 5-year drought). Visiting in October we enjoyed the fall colors and crisp air. Many thoughtful amenities are included in the cabin (in addition to towels, paper products, and kitchen supplies) such as band-aids, sunblock, snacks, and extra toiletries. Personally, I found it inconvenient to drive to a different location (just a few miles past the cabin) to pick-up a physical copy of the key from the property management company, after a long day of travel. However, once we checked-in and arrived on the property, we found everything was as advertised on the site. Thank you for sharing your cozy cabin.

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the special review of our 4 Seasons Of Fun cabin. We put a lot of effort in presenting the cabin to our guests, just as we would like it for ourselves. My family absolutely loves the cabin and it is so nice to know that others appreciate it as well.

I completely understand the inconvenience of having to drive further to obtain the cabin key when you’re tired. We usually recommend taking Route 38 into Big Bear which brings you to the key pickup point before you arrive at the cabin. I apologize if we failed to convey this. FYI, key pickup must be “face to face” as required by the City of Big Bear Lake Transient Private Home Rental (TPHR) rules and regulations.

We hope you can come relax again!

Nice location; fairly good shape

Quiet street across from Big Bear Lake. Cabin is in fairly good shape - could use some cleaning inside and paint/stain outside. Gas range was a pleasure to cook on, and the cabin is well-stocked for cooking (bring your own **sharp** knives). Overall a good stay.

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you so much for the feedback on your recent stay. Regarding the cabin cleaning not being up to our 5-star standard, I'm sorry this happened to you on your vacation.

The 4 Seasons Of Fun team is committed to creating great vacation experiences. To make good on this mission, we pay close (some might say "obsessive") attention to details so that we deliver a cabin experience that maximizes comfort AND expectations. We study what works and doesn't work for previous guest stays, including our own monthly stays, and identify ways to make them better. It's a big part of what makes 4 Seasons Of Fun a truly great family vacation destination.

Still, despite all our best efforts, occasionally we fall short, which is why user feedback like yours is such an important part of our process. We'd appreciate a description of the issue so it can be corrected. And we'll re-sharpen the knives.

Thank you again for your business and we look forward to hosting your next Big Bear Lake vacation.

Lovely cabin, on a quiet street with partial lake view. It has everything you need and more. The beds we're comfortable, though we only used two of the rooms. The hot tub clock was set wrong so it kept heating throughout the night which was noisy, but an easy fix after the first night. Would definitely stay here again.

Fantastic

Just bring your clothes and personal toiletries. This place furnishes: soaps, shampoos, t/paper, kleenex, hair dryer etc. If you plan to cook, this kitchen is almost as stocked as mine at home. Pots, pans, bake ware, table servings for eight, over a dozen coffee cups and yes a coffee pot and coffee too, even a blender. This place is AWESOME.

Everything we could ask for...

We loved our 3 days at 4 Seasons of Fun. The cabin is spacious, comfortable, and stocked with everything you could ever need. We could walk to The Village for shopping or dining. Everything else was a short driving distance away. We loved sitting on the porch or lounging in the hot tub. There is a guest book to sign and many say they have returned multiple times. It is easy to see why. We hope to go back soon too!

Great cabin. Convenient ranch style layout. Great seasonal discount. Fireplace, hot tub,heating, water, washer dryer,... everything seems to work very well. Very well appointed with everything you could need on a vacation. Nice view of the lake. Great central location to most things in town especially the village. Will stay there again.

Very pleased

Great property; has a very warm, welcoming feel. Isn't overly ornate where you worry about kids breaking something, etc. Excellent price and location. ONLY downside is that the cleaning fee is pretty high and so if you are just making a weekend of it, it almost doubles the cost. That being said, I will rent this place again if it's available the next time we go up to Big Bear.

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you for the positive comments regarding your recent stay at 4 Seasons Of Fun. And yes, the cleaning fee does seem to be a large portion of the detail rental costs. You may want to consider you are comparing the cleaning fee to a very special $99/night rental rate instead of the normal rates. We would love to host your family again and look forward to earning your business on your next stay in Big Bear Lake.

Great location...Very cozy!

We LOVED this place! We have been doing annual cabin trips to Big Bear for the family for the past 10 or so years. This was by far my favorite. Great lake view location. The cabin is fully furnished. There were plenty of condiments stocked in the cabin to use. I don’t think I have seen a cabin as stocked as this one. Sharon must have thought of every item that one could forget to pack, available there to use. My favorite was the electric blankets. This was the first time I have used one and I am running to the store to buy one now!

PROS: fully stocked with a ton of condiments to use

Con: there was no extra toilet paper, not a big issue, just had to run to the market to pickup

I will be recommending to all my firends and family and will definitely have to stay here again.

Very Nice & Clean Cabin - Close to The Village

We had a first class experience throughout the entirety of our stay. From the time I first connected with the cabin owner to ask a few questions, to booking the cabin with the management company, to checking in, to enjoying the cabin for three days--every aspect was professional and exceeded our expectations. I picked this cabin specifically because it looked nicer and cleaner than any of the other 2 or 3BD options available in Big Bear during my dates, and I'm glad I did. We have two small children under the age of 4 so cleanliness is of the utmost importance, and I can confidently say this rental exceeded our very high expectations. I book VRBO rentals for family trips about 4-5x per year and this cabin and our experience ranked among the best rentals we've stayed at over the years. Furthermore, the cabin was super kid friendly (i.e. toys, puzzles, child bathroom seats, etc.), which was a very nice and appreciated touch. While it was a great fit for our family, it would have been equally enjoyable for couples and larger parties of the adults. I unfortunately didn't get to use the hot tub, but I imagine that would have been a great amenity to have each evening if we were with adult friends.

I'll end by saying that the cabin's lakeside location and less than a half mile from town were perfect. We got about 5 inches of snow during our first night there, and instead of figuring out how to put chains on our car, we instead walked from the cabin to The Village. Our walk was less than 10 minutes (with two small children; probably a 5 minute walk w/ adults) and was a great way to enjoy the fresh snow. When we did use our car over the course of the weekend for coffee, meals, sledding, etc., we seldom drove more than 1 mile. Very convenient!

Thanks for the great stay! We'll definitely be back!

Great location, lots of charm, well-furnished

Very impressed by the prompt response and easy booking. Nice cabin-y feel but with lots of comforts and a very well-furnished kitchen with high quality appliances, more than enough glasses, dishes, pots, etc. Great location too!

l Weekend

We had a great time. Cabin was cozy and had a good view of the lake. It was within walking distance of the Village and lake. Checking in and checking out was very convenient. I didn't want to write anything negative but I wanted to address the fact that the Welcome basket left on the counter for us was a great addition, however there was expired goodies in the basket. Also, there was a mouse in the cabin. I understand that when up in the wilderness this is probably inevitable, but it was a little bothersome. Other than those 2 things which can be corrected, we had a great time.

Cabin Owner's Response: We’re very happy you had a wonderful time at our vacation cabin. However, we’re not thrilled with the fact you encountered older dated Welcome basket items. I recently spent time discarding expiration past-dated items but obviously some got through. 4 Seasons Of Fun cabin is treated quarterly for pests (spiders, mice, etc) and sometimes on special request. While yes, it’s the mountains where these things are commonplace, we strive to keep the rodents some “place” else. I will have our pest control company come treat for the mice. I sincerely apologize for any convenience.

Great location

Great location, nice home, very nice welcome basket! Home was very kid friendly. The only thing that would keep me from staying at this location again was the motion sensor light placed in the master bedroom corner facing the bed. Every time we moved in bed, it turned on, making it almost impossible to sleep. There was one in the living room too, but it was less annoying since we weren't trying to sleep. If these were removed, I'd definitely consider booking again. Another item on the wish list would be to refresh condiments - some were over 7 years beyond expiration. Overall, a good experience.

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you for the feedback and please know we’re taken action on your comments. Although this is the first time there’s been a comment about the security motion detector light, we’ve disengaged the light to avoid sleep interference. I check our condiments monthly to ensure proper stock as well as acceptable expiration dating. I don’t know how out-of-date items could be in the cabinet as I remove them but nevertheless, all condiments are current. FYI, this is another first in 9 years of hosting guests. We strive to keep our cabin at 5-star rating presentation and your comments proved both welcome and helpful. We’re looking forward to hosting your next vacation at 4 Seasons Of Fun.
