GREAT BIG BEAR HOME!!

We loved our stay and we will be back! The jacuzzi was awesome. The location could not be better. Beautiful lake views. Easy walk to downtown and the bowling barn. Rooms, beds and couches are all so comfortable! The living room offers so much space for lots of people to relax and watch movies etc. The Christmas tree is darling. The big beautiful windows allow you to enjoy the lake views from the couch or dining table. Kids loved sledding in the backyard and across the street at the lake. Washer/dryer worked great. We will be back for sure!

Winter Wonderland Family Trip

Wonderful stay. Property across the street from the lake and very close to the village. Property was spacious, clean, and comfortable. Smart-tv to watch classic movies, spa was wonderful while watching the snow, cabin stocked with useful necessities including phone chargers. Property manager was very responsive to text. Spacious master with king bed, and two additional bedrooms with beds for kids and adults. We will definitely be back.

Guest Comment

Just wanted to say Thank you for a nice time with our daughter, son in law and 3 year old grandson last weekend on January 6th and 7th. It was perfect ! We didn't ski this trip so it was nice to walk the village, go to Alpine Slide and just watch football and relax. Perfect for after the holidays. Thank you again! We soo appreciate your place! It feels like home!

Great stay for families

There were a couple discrepancies between what we were told vs the welcome booklet in the cabin. The pans had Teflon chipping off, and found it odd that we had to strip the bed ourselves. But overall a great place for family and friends.

Host's response: Thank you for the positive comments and the constructive feedback.

Our management company was purchased by a competitor and has been changing some operational items. One was the request to strip the beds. We didn’t know about this until your comment and then promptly spoke with the company’s management team. They acknowledged this isn’t a good practice for their Big Bear guests and the request has been removed. I apologize for any inconvenience.

You also mentioned a discrepancy in the Welcome Booklet. Please let us know what it is so we can evaluate if a change is warranted.

Love a Good Water View

Every morning, we would lift the blinds to enjoy our view of the lake. It was a great way to start the day. In the evening, we would relax on the rocking chairs or in the hot tub. Could not get a better location for home with its easy walk proximity to the marina and main part of town. Really enjoyed our stay. Thank you.

Decent rental

Overall our stay was nice. We were first timers to Big Bear and found that there were lots of things to do. The property is centrally located and easy to get to all things. I was a little deceived by the pictures that were provided as far as proximity to the lake/marina. I thought it was lake front but found that there was a large house across the street which blocked the view of the actual marina. You could still walk to the water some distance away but definitely not walking to the marina. A short drive if you get there early enough for parking if you plan to do any marina water rentals. The house was cozy, very large master and master bath. Only a couple of issues with the home itself. First, as we walked in for the first time it was 90 degrees in the house and never cooled down below 82 the first night despite have all fans on and opening all windows. There was some sort of cooling happening from the thermostat that I had set to 60 but it NEVER cooled down! The next day we weren’t sure if we should leave all windows open with fans on or lock it all up with the air that had been running. We chose to leave it all open since the air had been running when we got there and it was still hot. The breeze outside was nice so we sat on the porch for most of the nights. We checked the weather before booking and saw that Big Bear is usually in the 80’s this time of year and low 50’s at night. We were hoping for very cool nights since we were coming from extreme heat. This wasn’t the case. I almost booked a hotel to sleep in because it just never got cool in the house at night. We slept with all windows open (even tho I was worried about animals since I’d never been here). I would recommend to the owner to maybe get new windows on the entire front that can open up. I noticed all the windows were upgraded except for those. But again, that’s a pricey fix, but would make a world of difference in comfort in my opinion. The only other issue I had was the master bedroom TV never stayed on when we wanted to watch it while winding down at night. The power cord needs replaced, I kept trying to get it to stay in just the perfect spot to keep the TV on but it would only work for a little bit. After that it would sit and turn off and on repeatedly until I just unplugged it from the TV itself. A minor issue that most probably wouldn’t care about but I like to have some tv time while dozing off. Other than that, the house had EVERYTHING you would need!

Host's response: Thank you for noticing the cabin “had EVERYTHING you would need!” and that your overall stay was “nice”. We appreciate your feedback on where we can improve to help guests have a better experience in unusually high heat -- happening across the nation. Going forward, we’ll open the windows and turn on the fans on check-in days in order to stem high heat build-up in the cabin. Also, thank you for your alert on the failed master bedroom TV. Unfortunately for you, this TV worked up to the day you checked-in. After your alert in your review, we found it had suffered a motherboard failure. We now have a replacement in process of being delivered. Our pictures were taken from our deck when the lake was higher -- last 12 months it dropped several feet -- but we still enjoy looking at the lake and lake activity while enjoying the cool lake breezes and rocking in our rocking chairs. Since this was your first visit to Big Bear, we suggest a return trip in the Fall: the weather is mild and the mountains show off their autumn color in addition to the other activities you found enjoyable during this trip.

Beautiful home
Very nice and very safe but during the day house was very hot but had a great time

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you so much for being a guest and for your positive review of our 4 Seasons Of Fun vacation 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.

Yes, the cabin can get very warm on those high-heat days in Big Bear Lake. We strategically place the cabin’s tower fans to pull in the cool lake breezes that help keep the rooms comfortable. Additionally, we like to sit on our shaded decks enjoying the lake view and sipping our iced beverages.

Cute cabin with great location

Cute, Big Bear themed cabin with nice view of the lake within walking distance to both the lake and the village.

Great value in a perfect location.

The good/great: Location - view of the lake with a wonderful lake breeze and walking distance to Village. Furnishings - multiple fans to keep things cool during our unseasonably warm stay. Kitchen and bathrooms well stocked. comfortable furniture and beds. Ambience - had a true cabin in the woods feel. Property Management - Sharon and her property managers were extremely pleasant, accommodating and easy to work with. The not-so-great: Hot tub - never worked quite right. Either needs some maintenance or better instructions. We could not get it very hot or get the jets to work very well and it was not quite full enough. All of these things could have been user error. These issues did not keep us from using it regularly. Light switches - There was an unusual light switching arrangement which I never did fully figure out. This was only a minor problem but I would recommend adding some labels.

Overall- A+. Great value in a perfect location.

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you for the positive comments and also the immediate hot tub feedback which allowed me to get same day diagnostic service. Although the technician found the unit in good working order, he said one of two things may have occurred. One, the most common heating issues with this type of hot tub is that the desired temperature was not set correctly. Two, the digital touch pad can set the unit into economy mode thus lowering the temperature for efficiency purposes depending on temp setup. Regardless, I’m creating a more detailed Welcome Booklet on “how to” set the hot tub temp. Note that if you had contacted the provided maintenance number, people would have arrived quickly to resolve any issues you encountered.

ski weekend trip in rustic cabin

The cabin was not as clean and functional as expected. One of the couches was a makeshift setup comprised of undersized pillows and some wood with a blanket thrown over it to hid the contraption. The hot tub stopped working at one point and a toilet overflowed on the first time we tried to use it. When the toilet overflowed, I had the pleasure of cleaning a bathroom floor that I am sure have not been cleaned in months.

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you for the feedback and we apologize for the inconveniences. Note that if you had contacted the provided maintenance number, people would have arrived quickly to resolve any issues you encountered. Also, note the hot tub is inspected by a spa professional after every guest, whether they used it or not. Perhaps someone in your party accidently touched a control button that caused the temporary outage when they egressed the unit? All bathroom floors are both cleaned and sanitized to Vrbo cleaning standards along with COVID-19 protocol after every guest and are re-inspected the morning before guest check-in. The guests immediately before and after your visit didn’t experience any of the issues you encountered.

Amazing stay by Big Bear Lake

We loved the house. Cozy space, perfect for families. Jacuzzi and fireplace were both great amenities to have. Great location as well, close to a great pizza place and the village as well as skiing at Snow Summit. Perfect!

Relaxing cabin get away

My family and I had such a wonderful time at this cabin for a long weekend get away. We cooked all our meals and enjoyed the different hikes around the lake. The village is so close we could have walked. It was quiet, relaxing, and the kids enjoyed all the decretive bears around the cabin. They had fun counting all of them a making a game of it. Thanks for everything.

Slice of mountain by the village

Absolutely loved 4 Seasons of Fun! My family and another family wanted a trip into the mountains from the city and this place was perfect! It’s positioned right across from the lake with great views to enjoy from the balcony and inside while hanging in the family room. I don’t think the pictures do it justice for space. There’s a nice big sectional, separate couch and lots of floor space in between that allowed two 1 year olds and a 4 year old run around pointing out all the bears - was perfect. The location was a brisk walk to Big Bear village even with strollers - just have a quick game of ‘chicken’ to cross the street rather than walking to a crosswalk. The house came with dishes, comfortable beds, towels and kitchen essentials to whip up meals. Plus there we’re laundry and dishwasher available if needed. Also has three designated parking spots and a big back yard for games. One dilemma was the hot tub didn’t work while we were there. Wasn’t a big deal and appreciated the quick response from the support team to come take a look very quickly.

Overall LOVED our experience here and looking forward to the next time we can come visit. Great spot for families or a get away with friends. Thank you for opening up your great home, we loved it!

Cabin Owner's Response: It was equally nice having your family as guests and we welcome you back anytime. The spa tech found that the heater was worn out and required replacement. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience.

Wonderful get a way in a great location.

4 seasons of fun was a great get away. The cabin was very well stocked with anything you could need. We enjoyed the lake view from the dining table and curling up with the fire under a fleece blanket. The cabin was walking distance to the village and on weekends the horse drawn carriage delighted us by coming by. We felt very at home and comfortable, would love to come back some day.

Birthday Getaway

The cabin was just as owner described. The cabin is very accessible, well furnished and decorated just as one would expect of a mountain getaway. The kitchen was well stocked and had plenty of room to put away any kitchen supplies you may bring. The livingroom had a spectacular view of the lake which was right across the street. We enjoyed being so close to the marina because we reserved a pontoon boat for Saturday afternoon. The kids enjoyed spending time in the hot tub while the adults sat out on the porch and relaxed. The perfect way for us to celebrate our birthdays. Would definitely recommend this cabin and we look forward to booking a retreat here again soon, hopefully for longer than a weekend.

Short getaway.

Wonderful property and location once we realized how close to the Pine Knot area that we were. Lake views, incredibly well stocked property, and an amazing volume of helpful information. The owners have put a lot of effort into making the experience the best it can be. The price is a touch high,, but you get what you pay for in accommodations, utensils, and conveniences.

Highly recommended and would rent again!

Great place to celebrate a special family event!

This was a charming and well kept rustic home right across the street from the lake. The house was extremely well equipped and stocked with every kitchen item needed as well as paper products, coffee filters and disinfecting wipes. It was very clean and the best part is that it is walking distance to just about anything (except the major grocery stores which were only a couple miles away) so we really just parked the cars for the whole week and walked everywhere. We were celebrating my grandson's 1st birthday and it was really the perfect place for a family vacation. The only negative was that there was no air conditioning and Big Bear was having a hot spell and the living room was often as hot as 88 degrees. They supplied a lot of fans but it was just not enough to battle the unusual heat they were having. However, I doubt that would stop me from coming here again...thank you Sharon for sharing your home!

Spacious, great location

Plenty of room for two families to share (7 total). Good sized kitchen and bedrooms, the Great Room is really comfortable.

The location's walking distance to the Village which has lots of restaurants, and to the Marina. We loved the hot tub. The hot tub is on the front porch, but the street is quiet and since it's elevated, there's plenty of privacy. The property was clean and well stocked, other than toilet paper (which is in the listing instructions, but which I didn't notice ahead of time). Markets are close by so it wasn't a problem.Spacious, great location.

Excellent value!!!

Location was amazing. Super close to everything. Sunsets were awesome. My only request is that a portable AC unit be put in one of the closets so it can be used in the living room during warmer than usual days.

Oh yeah...and buy a new, lighter, hot tub cover...the current one is cruddy and heavy as heck!

Purchase new patio chairs too. The sun just degrades those plastic chairs.

Such a wonderful place to stay AGAIN!

Went out of our way to look at where we had stayed before because it was just the perfect place. The location can't be beat. So close for our family and daughter and family with an almost 1 year old so we could walk to the village every day.....coffee, brunch, watch a Nascar race, and of course do a little shopping! I believe people underestimate how much communication goes between an owner and a rental company to have a vacation rental. (especially during Covid). Bottom line: They make it seamless! Have fun....enjoy the coziness of the cabin, the jacuzzi, and the view from those windows!

Exceptional stay!

The house was perfect in every way.. the pictures posted were not deceiving when we arrived the house was impeccable, with all the necessary items. We felt so at home. It was super comfortable and clean and just “Home”. I would recommend it to family and friends anytime. I actually already looked to book it in February. Everything was clean and well supplied. Best experience ever. Loved the big back yard I didn’t have to leave the house to enjoy a good time at snow backyard did it.

Great place to stay!

This was a great 3 bedroom, 2 bath cabin. Very close to town and the lake. We walked back and fourth all 4 days and it was great and easy to find. There is lake view, but there are a couple houses right in front of the cabin. But you can still see the lake so that was nice! We'd come back for sure! Thanks!

Cozy Getaway

My husband and I escaped city life for the mountains for our 25th anniversary. Our stay at the 4 Seasons of Fun was relaxing, quiet, and so cozy! The cabin is centrally located, we walked to the marina and the village each day. We cooked amazing dinners in the fully stocked kitchen, and relaxed by the fireplace each night. I will definitely come back here and next time we will come during wintertime.

Great location, great layout, peaceful, and well stocked

Loved staying here we will be back. Only downside is having to drive to the office to pick up the keys. Highly recommended installing passcode lock instead for easier check in. Otherwise this was walkable to the marina, etc.

Big Bear Escape

This property has a great location close to village and lake view. House is clean and well maintained. It was nice that soap and shampoo was provided even though we brought our own. Kitchen was great with everything you would need for your stay. First night we noticed a bat was flying in the house, however after calling maintenance man and searching entire house we never found it or seen it after it's friendly visit. ??? Not sure where it went. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely return in the future.

Unfortunate cancelation after first night of four night reservation.

The location was good if you intend to tour the lake or do other activities from the marina. The hot tub was on the front porch which is about 20 feet from. and ten feet above the street. No privacy. If you want location and do not spent a lot of time in the house it's ok. It's well cared for, and was clean for an older property. We did have an issue of finding a few insects in the bedding which were identified as ticks by the property management as ticks (from pictures I emailed and by their representative that came to look) . We opted to leave after the first night. They did refund the fee for the next three booked nights.

Cabin Owner's Response: We really appreciate your positive review as another in our 170+ guest reviews that our cabin received over the past 10+ years. We’re honored guests have found our cabin experience worthy of a 4.9 out of 5 star rating over that time period. We also agree wholeheartedly that our great location allows for a short walk to the Big Bear Marina and a short walk to The Village for dining, shopping and entertainment. Your comment about our enviable central location to Big Bear activities has been shared by hundreds of prior guest groups as well.

Your feedback highlights the spa -- and in that regard -- please know that it’s one of the most positive commented upon cabin features. Guests continually say they love relaxing in the warn water while enjoying the lake and mountain views through the privacy lattice-work. Spa-time is one of my families’ favorite de-stressing activities when we stay at the cabin.

We’re happy to pass along your comment about the cabin being well-cared for and clean to our property management team who spends considerable time cleaning, disinfecting and sanitizing everything in the cabin including all bedding. These actions follow Vrbo COVID-19 guidelines. For example, we allow three days of non-rental between guests in order for any potential virus droplets to settle and be removed plus these cleaning actions occur the day before a guest arrives. We are committed to guest safety!

It’s unfortunate you found a bug during your brief stay. I understand this was your first time staying in the Big Bear Lake area. On the one hand, bugs (ants, spiders, etc.), animals (raccoons, mice, etc.), and birds (bald eagles, bats, etc.) are a fact of life in the mountains. On the other, we don’t want them around or in the cabin. We employ a professional pest control company who frequently sprays for a lot of these pests. They most recently performed preventative spraying in Aug-2020. No bugs were found in the cabin at that time nor were any seen during cleaning and on inspection walk-thru the morning before your arrival. We requested the pest control company re-inspect the cabin a day after your departure. They could not find any bugs in the cabin and they commented that your photos showed a “tick”. They also confirmed that ticks cannot live at Big Bear Lake due to the high altitude. You mentioned you found a tick on your jacket which leads us to believe you brought the tick up the mountain and into the cabin on your clothes.

Big Bear Long Weekend

Very Nice; good location. Just two things: the AC does not work well; the outdoor furniture could use some cushions. Otherwise we had a great time and so did the kids.

Cabin Owner's Response: Thank you for the kind feedback regarding your recent stay at 4 Seasons Of Fun. However, the cabin doesn't have air conditioning. We would love to host your family again and look forward to earning your business on your next stay in Big Bear Lake.

Best rental experience!

We have been coming to Big Bear annually, and this has been our best rental experience by far. The owner was very communicative from the beginning, sending detailed calendars and “things to do” lists before our arrival. The property management company continued the hospitality. We were greeted by a goody basket filled with essentials (and non-essentials) we may have forgotten - toothbrushes, deodorant, chips, coloring books, etc. The property location is fantastic. The short walk to the village, and lake views from the hot tub cannot be beat at this price! We will definitely be looking to stay again.

Fantasia location

This is a spectacular cabin. The layout is very spacious and easily accommodated our family of 4 plus another couple. Everything from kitchen and bathrooms to DVD collection was well stocked. The highlight is the location. Walk across the street to the lake, a few blocks to the town mainstreet and a block from the bowling barn and several great restaurants. We would likely stay again for another big bear getaway.
