Why the tiny tv??

The cabin was clean, well-organized, and had very clear instructions on how to use everything, which was appreciated. The beds were soft, there were plenty of extra blankets, and the carpet was soft and clean. The kitchen was very large with plenty of space to cook and move around.The biggest disappointment was the TV. The cabin has a large living room with plenty of space and distance between the couch and the screen, yet the TV was extremely small. In 2025 there's no reason for a rental cabin to still have a tiny TV like this, especially when a much larger one can be purchased for around $200. For future stays, a proper-sized TV matters more than having things like a pool table or foosball table. Those amenities are nice in theory, but ultimately not a deciding factor for a return stay.The location was quiet and peaceful, and although there was only one car this trip, there was plenty of parking space. Being able to access the keys from a lock box at the cabin rather than having to go to an office first was a great convenience.The showers were nice with plenty of hot water. The spa wasn't used, and attempts to start a fire were difficult because of cold heavy air; after that experience, a gas fireplace is definitely preferred.Overall, a pleasant stay with a lot of positives, but the outdated TV setup was disappointing enough to influence future booking decisions.

"Captivated by the nature-inspired ambiance"

5 of 5

Dear Respected Cabin Owner, We are writing to express our heartfelt gratitude for the extraordinary opportunity to stay in your remarkable cabin in the enchanting embrace of Big Bear. Our seven day sojin in July 2023 was nothing short of magical, and we are deeply appreciative. From the moment we crossed the threshold, we were captivated by the nature-inspired ambiance. The surrounding beauty seemed to whisper secrets, igniting a sense of wonder and inspiration.  Thank you for generously sharing your extraordinary cabin with us. May your endeavors continue to flow with the same spirit of the woods in which this place is surrounded by. With heartfelt thanks.

"Wonderful Place & Location"

5 of 5

Really enjoyed everything about the place: very clean and well-kept (very impressed), big kitchen and living room, hot tub was perfectly placed, and location was great and close to everything. Only concern is how warm the bedrooms get during the Summer day (plenty of fans provided as central cooling is not provided).

"The place was great."

5 of 5

The place was great. Everything from the bedrooms, kitchen, living, hot tub to yard, it was very presentable and clean. Only downside was the rooms were stuffy and hot during the day (Summer time). But they did provide fans, so that helped.
