Peaceful Getaway
My husband, my daughter and I went to Big Bear for a family trip to celebrate my birthday. The location was perfect, right on the lake so my husband could fish while me and my daughter soaked in the hot tub. It's also very close distance to the Alpine Slide which we had a great time at.
The views of the lake are incredible and can be seen from the bedrooms, living room and kitchen.
The kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans, blender, etc and the grocery store isn't too far of a drive.
The photos of the second master suite doesn't do it justice. While it's seperated from the house, it's only a few stairs down. It's very spacious and nicely done. It has its own bathroom and sitting area and TV. Perfect if you are traveling with grandparents or if parents are traveling with older kids.
The second master had a very comfy California king.
They were flexible with early check in and late checkout which we appreciated for this quick 3 day trip.
Why I rated 4 stars instead of 5:
- there was a citywide power outage on arrival and the property manager did not do a great job of keeping us posted. It was a bit stressful but it did come back on after a few hours
- the property sits on a hill so you have to be careful walking down to the water, the steps do not go all the way down so just use caution during the icy months
- you have to take the jacuzzi cover all the way off in order to see the lake but once you do, it's not easy to get back on because of the hill
