Highland Hideway

It's small less than 500 sq ft, but just perfect for two people. Our dog was enamored with the back yard. He never saw so many squirrels and rabbits! Place is clean and area is quite, close to a Mexican restaurant we love. Would highly recommend.

Big Bear Getaway

This is my second time at the cabin. It is perfect for the pups and a few days getaway. It was clean,and the right size for two. My only complaint is that the door was hard to open and the DVD player did not work, but I notified the management. The level of communication was terrific. I would definitely stay here again.

Great weekend getaway

Great place to stay for 2 people for the weekend. The only downfall was the shower head was ~2.5 feet from the ground. The shower head was removable but was not the most ideal shower especially when it’s cold and snowing out.

Great snowy stay in the mountains

Overall enjoyable property for our stay. The backyard was great for our pup and the Cool Cabin Staff was very reliable in assisting us acquire some necessary items that weren't at the cabin (soup pot, snow shovel). The description of this property is accurate and the fireplace is still inoperable; however, the furnace kept the place nice and toasty, even during the power outage that occurred during the snow storm. Great location and easy to access.

Great cabin with large yard

The Highland Hideaway was great! It is a cozy, studio-style cabin with everything you need for a weekend in Big Bear. Our dog loved playing in the snow in the fenced yard. Big Bear Cool Cabins was very helpful and communicative. They even drove by and plowed the snow in front of our driveway after we got 11 inches of snow!

I came to the mountains to have some me time after my wife passed away a few months ago! I wanted to see the Forest and the lake and the trees and I needed a place to stay while I have this experience! Cool Cabins catered to my needs! I will definitely use them again!

The property is cute and perfect for my husband, 3 year old and myself with our dog. The yard is huge and perfect for us since we get to play with the dog but still feel like were out in nature. The reasons why I didn't give a 5 star review is because I asked for an early check in and they let me know that they can't guarantee it but will let me know when the house is ready and traditional check in was at 4pm. We ended up not getting a text at all. I texted the number past 4pm and no response so I called and they had to look it up and the response was "oh yea, its ready for you now". Once arriving to the house, there were 3-4 big dog poops that I had to pick up in the back yard. The couch also didn't have back cushions which made it really uncomfortable to sit and watch TV.
