Wow I don't like leaving bad reviews I feel that most bad reviews are vindictive. This place is cute and quiet but here comes the issues. The bed is like sleeping on a cement slab. Nothing comforting about it. We arrived late and everything was closed I almost felt like sleeping in my car the bed was that uncomfortable. I paid for a two night stay but ended up going to another establishment with better beds. Now let's talk about the bugs. The front door has a 1/4 inch gap at the bottom of the door sill that allows any creepy crawling spiders or bug into your cabin. Pull the sheets back on my concrete slab and seen a couple of bugs tucked in the corner. Not a bug expert cannot confirm or deny if it was a bed bug. Could have been a Forrest bug for all I know. The bathroom floor tiles are loose. If you are looking for that outdoor experience but being indoors this is the place for you. On the plus side I will give you a 1 star rating because your showers and the water pressure and how hot the water gets will sanitize your body after laying on that slab. If I can give you any feedback. Change the mattresses and box spring and seal the place up. And I'm sure you will have better reviews. You made money off me and I don't even care. Use that money for some improvements. Wish you guys the best. I will never use this place again.

Pros: cheap and conveniently located. Tub and fireplace are cool perks. Spacious. Easy check-in. Cons: Dirty and outdated. Our feet were black after walking around barefoot. Holes in the wall left unpainted, cracks in the flooring, baseboards hadn’t been cleaned in a long time. The property by us (cabin S01) looked like a junkyard.

Good Stay

Very communicative which was nice. The cabin was spacious and comfortable. It could use some light maintenance here and there as it’s fairly old, but all the important things were clean, functional and comfortable.

This property is in a great central location in town. However, the cabin itself was in disrepair. The chain on the door was broken, there was broken tile in the kitchen, and we didn’t even use the hot tub because the paint was chipped all over and it didn’t seem safe or sanitary. Additionally, there were cobwebs in all the corners of the rooms. Worst of all there was a large red stain on the blanket that I can only assume was blood? Basically, I will rather sleep in my car than stay at this cabin again.

Smoke from fireplace was horrible. Had to open all the windows and turn on the heater. Could not shut the bathroom door all the way or it would stick and wouldn’t open. Jacuzzi tub took over an hour to fill up to the height of the jets. Maybe this room S09 is a problem and not the rest of the hotel. Room was cute and we had high hopes for our stay but things did not go well.

Such a cute cozy place however it’s a bit antique it needs some upgrades and fixtures. There was chipped paint in the bath tub and there was a strong smell of old in the house. The property is very close to everything in Big Bear. Overall it was a great stay!

We didn’t like anything about it. It was a dump a block away from the main drag of an old mostly run down tourist town. It was advertised as a cottage in the woods. It was a shabby motel room with trees.

Terrible bed and not very clean.

Bed was very uncomfortable. Room wasn’t thoroughly cleaned even though check in was very late. There was hair, dust, and dirt everywhere. Wifi was slow and spotty. Not worth the price. Location was good, area is central but quiet.

In this price range, there are better and cleaner

House pictures differ from real-life pictures. Everything in the houses is so old and dirty, from the bedding to the blankets to the glassware. Rather than adding water to the soap dispenser, they could at least fill it with soap for this price.
