The entire process is seamless and the team is so pleasant to work with, especially Ally. Ally truly goes above and beyond. She's incredibly informative, thoughtful, and makes sure you have all the intel you need before your trip. She even shared helpful local resources like bensweather.com for updates from their local meteorologist and pointed me to where to check road conditions, then followed up with an email including everything to make it easy. She also gave the best cabin recommendations tailored to what we were looking for. You can just tell she genuinely loves helping people. She makes you feel less like a customer and more like family. Pro tip: it's way more affordable to book directly through them than through Airbnb or other third party sites. Highly recommend!

Not much rental activity except in the winter, damage to the property that went unreported by housekeeping, and just the general vibe that our small cabin was a very low priority for them. Finally, we made the decision to change management this summer after we completed a remodel. I found Leanne in a Big Bear FB group online along with several other PMs who responded to a post I made about looking for new management. Leanne was the only one who provided helpful, tangible information when she reached out to me. We spoke and then I decided she and SkyHigh cabins would be our new managers. The onboarding process was smooth and detailed. They are extremely professional and walked me through the different stages of getting ready to "go live" on the various platforms they use. It took about 6 weeks to get everything completely switched over. But when we did go live in mid-October 2025, all I can say is WOW!! We've had 12 reservations made in just over a week's time! We didn't have 12 reservations in the last year total with the old company, so this has been very, very exciting for us. Aside from all of that, Leanne, Jennifer and their team are very communicative and helpful. If you are looking for new management, I cannot recommend them enough. Just do what they tell you to do, use their vendors, and follow their lead. They have figured out the algorithms and rental platforms to such a degree that your property will actually start to pay for itself. We were on the verge of selling our cabin, but now, we will be able to hold on to it. Call them today!!

Snuggle Bear Cabin...there are only positive things I can say about this deeply wonderful and…read morerelaxing cabin. What I noticed about the location of this cabin was that it was further away from the heavy tourist areas but close enough to grocery stores, restaurants and shops. So if you are looking for peace and quiet this is the perfect getaway from the everyday stresses of life. This cabin includes a living room with a cute fireplace, a small but full kitchen with a eating area, full bathroom (water pressure is good and it heats up pretty quickly), a bedroom with a closet, access to the backyard, a front porch and a cozy loft with a flatscreen TV that I didn't touch once. I was primarily there solo to detox from the busy life of Los Angeles and not to ski since I was there beginning of May. Snuggle Bear Cabin had everything I needed to detox. I laid out my yoga mat and meditation pillow upstairs in the loft and it had an inviting view of tall trees out the window. It was a perfect environment to reflect on life, letting all creative juices flow, read and write. The solitude was exceptionally welcome. The final full day that I was there, my boyfriend came up to join me. And really...all we did was snuggle. I highly recommend this beautiful cabin for anyone to deeply relax and enjoy the natural wonders of Big Bear. Thank you, Melia, for his wonderful experience.

I really wanted to like this place but it was a disaster from start to finish…read more We drove all the way up to Big Bear and got there at 4:10 for our 4pm check-in. The cleaners didn't show up until 4:20. We had to leave and come back, and didn't actually get into Chalet Des Ours until after 5:30pm which completely threw off our first night since we had dinner plans. The door locks were broken - like actually broken. Every single time we left the house we had to yank the doors super hard to get them to lock and even then we weren't sure if they were actually secure. We were genuinely worried someone would break in and steal our stuff. How is this even allowed to be rented out with non-functioning locks? Then after we checked out they hit us with a $95 charge claiming we left the hot tub dirty. The water was cloudy when we got there that first night - looked exactly like their photo. We only used it twice, covered it both times, and put the temp back down like we found it. We were only there 2 nights. But of course we didn't think to take photos when we arrived because we didn't expect to be blamed for their poor maintenance. The whole thing felt like they don't actually take care of Chalet Des Ours and then charge guests when things go wrong. Between the late access, broken locks, and getting blamed for a dirty hot tub that was already dirty, I can't recommend this place. There are way better rentals in Big Bear where the owners actually care about keeping things maintained and not screwing over their guests

5 Kern's Cabin (Kabin on confirmation): The showers did not work correctly, the fixtures are…read morebroken and the water was scolding hot or freezing cold, not to mention plumbed the wrong way so hot is really cold and cold is really hot. This is super dangerous and luckily my youngest daughter did not get burned. There is no reason to allow your water heater to pump out scolding hot water, that is a simple adjustment. Fan in the bathroom is broken upstairs so to get air flow from a shower, you need to open the window which is in direct view of the neighbors living space. How the cleaning service does not notice this is confusing. The towels in the bathrooms are literally rags, all mixed matched, some with holes and super thin. Just a bit odd when you need 4 towels to dry off. The kitchen did not have a decent quality or array of items needed. The dishwasher had a rubber band holding the utensil tray on. The fireplace/living room was why we choose this location so that was as expected. The lingering Christmas decorations were a bit odd but with the overall quality of the property, it makes me think the property is just not either rented often or maintained. And last but not least, while we stayed for 2 nights, keep in mind we were out and about all day, a critter chewed all the wiring in our engine. It definitely was at this cabin since our engine light went on when we were departing on our last day. We assumed it was a faulty sensor since my car is new but as it turns out, $1,067 later, something ate through our engine while it was parked at the unit. And, that $1,067 may not fix it. If it doesn't work, the dealership told me they would need to replace this entire section. I did not bother to ask how much that was going to be. There are signs all over reminding you to not feed critters and you can not use their city issued trash receptacles. They want you to take the trash with you to this local dump which for this cabin, was in a convenient location. Not a big deal they want you to take the trash, but I am assuming the critter issue is a much bigger problem. We also opted to have the trip insurance just in case of weather. Although they cover a wide array of random things, the one thing they have listed as being not covered is.......VERMIN. I notified the management and they responded with a we will look into it. Does anyone else notice there are only 5 star reviews on their Big Bear Cabin website? Good thing we have other options on google & yelp to make a review!

Take pictures of the cabin when you arrive and when you leave. The condition of the cabin was OK and i had no major issues during my stay. My problems started two days after i got home. I received a request from the booking agent for $500! The message read: 'Thank you for taking care of the deck repair. Michelle' I responded immediately asking what had happened and that i was unaware of any issues while renting. I feel like this type of communication was rude and absolutely presumptuous that i caused the damage. You see, i went to Big Bear when everything was covered in snow. It had been covered for the last weeks from a previous snowfall, and the snow had not melted yet. When i arrived at my cabin, it was completely covered - including the deck. We were not able to use the deck for this reason. Obviously the rental company did not shovel the snow in between renters. There was no further response from her and she escalated the issue to the AirBnb team. There was no dialogue or attempt to speak with me regarding this, which I believe would have deescalated the situation because i attached a picture clearly showing that the deck was covered in snow/ice. It did not snow while we were there - this was obviously from previous snowfall. The damage pictures she sent looked like a burn marks on the deck. Those burn mark pictures were soaked in snow melt and ice. Obviously this could not have been done by me i my picture shows the deck covered in snow. Till today, after escalating the issue the rental company has not followed up with myself or AirBnb. It is unprofessional and unnecessary to work with your customers this way. This company turned my great vacation into anxiety when i came home. I would never rent with them again. Be professional, do you diligence and don't accuse your renters of damage because you don't adequately check your properties in between rentals. -Renee

We stayed at Edgewood Mansion for my 40th birthday during New Years Eve. My husband planned the…read moretrip to include my closest girlfriends and their families. From the beginning to the end we had the best experience. The mansion has so much history, is perfect to accommodate multiple families with en suites, huge kitchen, many places to relax, and plenty to do. We had kids from ages 4 to 10. We thought we would run out of things for them to do. Not at all. The mansion is so huge, they had plenty of room to stretch out, the hills on the property provided for fun sledding and snowman building. The adults were either at the sauna, jacuzzi, kitchen, outside in the snow walking the 2 acres of property or just relaxing in one of the many comfy nooks. I highly recommend Edgewood Mansion for any type of event whether it's a birthday trip, family reunion, corporate retreat or any other purpose where you want to feel like you're at home, or provided for like a Queen. The location which is located higher up in the mountains is away from the traffic. The accommodations are immaculate and the concierge services provided by Chantal who was available to us 24/7 before we got there and during, was spot on. We catered instead of cooking which was so much easier on everyone so we could enjoy each other's company versus cooking. Chantal gave us choices and she had Mexican food delivered one night, Italian catered another and on New Years Eve we had a personal chef, Mike who is a master chef create the most delicious surf and turf dinner. We had piles of Alaskan king crab legs and the freshest, tastiest filet. Everything was provided. This was an amazing trip because of where we stayed, the owner Laura who was so accommodating and Chantal who was so helpful. Our friends have not stopped thanking us for coordinating this trip. We all got to spend time together with the kids together and not feeling overwhelmed because everything was at our fingertips. Thank you to Laura, Chantal, Irvin and the maintenance crew, Sherri our housekeeper and the magical Edgewood Mansion.

Also so many on property amenities and activities that can keep your family busy. At the time of our visit, the winter blizzard just had passed and left the property with tons of inches of snow. Never had to leave the property for snow play. All for free. CONCERNS PRIOR: booked through booking.com and was afraid of bad service or last minute cancellations by the resort as said by previous reviewers. SERVICE: 5/5 Welcoming and friendly COMFORT: 5/5 Beds including the murphy bed was comfortable IN ROOM AMENITIES: 5/5 Full kitchen, with plates, utensils, cookware, fridge with freezer, oven, microwave, and basic seasonings (salt, pepper, chili flakes etc). No rice cooker though. Washer and dryer, private outdoor propane grill. Hair dryer and extra toilet paper and tissues, trash baggies. Even your own dustpan, broom, vacuum. CONS: Sensitive smoke detector. Sets off instantly when cooking in the kitchen. Heard the other nearby neighbors alarm go off too. Bobby the maintenance guy was so kind and let us know that it wasn't uncommon to go off. Made us feel better as it was embarrassing loud and frequent. SUGGESTIONS FOR IMPROVEMENT: gets cold in big bear despite the room heater. Would love to see the resort include disposable house footwear/hotel slip ons for walking in the unit. And a freezer in their little shop for frozen snacks/ice cream for last minute sweet cravings. Would I stay here again? 100%. Also, if you're staying on the bottom unit, it is common to hear the above units foot steps. Luckily it wasn't that bad.

From the moment we arrived, the cabin felt warm, welcoming, and thoughtfully prepared for families. The home itself was beautiful and incredibly well stocked with amenities. The kitchen had everything we needed for cooking meals, including cookware, utensils, spices, and little conveniences that made it feel more like a home than a rental. Every space felt intentional and cozy, from the inviting foyer entrance to the comfortable living room, the two bedrooms, and the outdoor patio area. There were so many little spots to relax and enjoy during our stay. Traveling with small children can sometimes make vacations stressful, but this place made things so much easier for us. One of our favorite features was being able to let the kids safely play indoors in the enclosed front room without worrying about mosquitoes or them wandering off. We also loved grilling outside in the back patio area while knowing the kids were secure in the gated space. It gave us peace of mind and allowed us to truly relax as a family. The neighborhood was another huge plus. It was peaceful, quiet, and family-friendly, with very little traffic since the road leads to a dead end. Even though it felt tucked away and serene, we were still just minutes from everything. Shops, restaurants, and the Village were all conveniently nearby (only about a 5-minute drive away) which made exploring Big Bear Village super easy. Inside, the beds were extremely cozy, there were plenty of clean towels, the shower was fully stocked, and the refrigerator had more than enough space for groceries and family meals. The extra touches really made the experience memorable for us (especially the board games and the Pac-Man arcade machine in the living room) which both the kids and adults enjoyed! Overall, this stay exceeded our expectations and truly helped make our family trip special. We would absolutely stay here again and are already looking forward to coming back on our next trip to Big Bear Lake.
