No camera tricks here—what you see is what you get, and guests consistently praise the cozy ambiance and enchanting charm of our space. Our recently completed renovations ensure everything is in perfect working order for your stay, from our newly secured fence gate (making the entire yard safely enclosed for pets) to enhanced pest control measures that keep the home immaculate year-round. Upstairs Living- Open-Concept Elegance The heart of our home features a stunning open-concept layout with soaring vaulted ceilings and warm wood paneling that creates an authentic cabin atmosphere: 🍳 Fully-Equipped Kitchen: Vintage-inspired appliances, Reverse Osmosis water filtration, and every cooking tool imaginable—air fryer, Instant Pot, Ninja blender, and more! (Dishwasher, microwave, toaster, cooking spices, oil & vinegar, children's dishes, dog bowls, smoothy maker, electric hand mixer, Cuisinart coffee machine, pour-over coffee maker, french press, electric tea kettle, two 8-10 cup coffee packs provided, as well as a selection of fine teas.) 🔥 Cozy Living Room: Center yourself around the impressive river rock wood-burning fireplace, sink into our genuine leather Crate & Barrel sofa, or lounge on the tufted velvet futon. ✨ Elegant Dining Area: Gather beneath a magnificent dimmable chandelier at our expandable table that comfortably seats eight. 🎵 Vintage Music Corner: Unwind in our oversized reading chair while enjoying our authentic gramophone record player (with growing vinyl collection) or connect your own music via Bluetooth. 🌲 Upper Deck: Breathe in the crisp mountain air from our expansive deck featuring comfortable seating, a telescope for stargazing, and a Weber BBQ grill—all overlooking our spacious backyard. (Some patio furniture is unavailable in winter. Propane tank may need to be filled.) 💤 Upstairs Bedroom & Bath: Enjoy a restful night on a premium queen memory foam bed, and refresh in our rustic-chic bathroom with rainfall shower. Downstairs Hideaway- Speakeasy Chic & Secret Surprises Descend the spiral staircase (professionally inspected for safety and sturdy enough for adults, though some pets may need encouragement) or use the separate side entrance to discover: 🥂 Secret Speakeasy: Step back in time in our Prohibition-era inspired lounge with bar, velvet settee, and a collection of board games such as Clue, Monopoly, Battleship, Candyland, Tabletop Pool (we don't have a standard sized pool table), Uno, various decks of cards, and more! 👑 Master Suite: Luxuriate in the California King bed with hybrid memory foam mattress, enjoy your morning coffee from the en-suite Keurig coffee bar, or warm up by the wood-burning stove. Here you will also find our 2 person infrared sauna and stackable washer/dryer, tucked away to use as needed. 🕰️ Hidden Third Bedroom: A Vintage Forest Escape 🌲✨ Step through the bookshelf wall to uncover a cozy retreat featuring a Queen over Queen bunkbed with twin memory foam trundle bed that pulls out underneath, and all three are exquisitely comfortable. You will also find... drum roll please... a PAC-MAN arcade machine, offering 12 classic games—the perfect touch of old-school charm in this woodland hideaway. 🛁 Spa Bathroom: Indulge in our statement clawfoot tub, perfect for a luxurious soak. The bathroom also features a rainfall shower, but due to the charmingly low ceilings, guests over 5'6" may find it more comfortable to enjoy a relaxing soak instead of a shower. This enchanting oasis is easily accessible from both the primary bedroom and the hidden "secret" bedroom. 🌟 Private Lower Deck: Step out from the primary bedroom or speakeasy to unwind in the 7-person hot tub or relax on the vintage-inspired porch swing. Take in breathtaking views of the towering trees and sprawling backyard, with beach towels and plastic cups (found in the kitchen) provided for your jacuzzi enjoyment. Modern Comforts Despite its vintage charm, our home offers all modern necessities: 📡 High-speed WiFi and smart 4K TVs in all bedrooms and living room 🌡️Radiant wall heating, easily controlled by Nest thermostats, plus a fireplace-style space heater in the speakeasy and hidden bedroom for added warmth and ambiance. ❄️ Ductless mini-split AC, a powerful portable AC unit, and multiple standing oscillating fans for those rare warm days 👕 Washer/dryer with provided supplies (detergent and dryer sheets provided as well as iron and ironing board) 💻 Multiple comfortable workspaces for remote work
Other Details to Note
🏠 Perfect Size: Although some reviews suggest otherwise, our 1320 sq ft home comfortably accommodates up to 8 guests, with three distinct bedrooms plus additional sleeping options. No camera tricks here—what you see is what you get, and guests consistently praise the cozy ambiance and enchanting charm of our space. 🐾 Pet-Friendly: Four-legged friends are welcome to join you! ($35 cleaning fee per pet). We kindly ask that pets remain on-leash outside the property, and only enjoy off-leash freedom within our fully-fenced backyard (we’ve added a new secure gate.) 🐶 Neighborly Love: Our next-door neighbors' dogs were previously a concern for some guests. We’ve since built a great relationship, and our neighbor is happy to bring them inside if they ever become disruptive. 🚗 Parking: Four-car driveway available. No street parking allowed. ⛄ Seasonal Considerations: During snow season, chains or 4x4 vehicles may be required (throughout Big Bear). A snow shovel is provided on-site. 🐜 Nature's Neighbors: We are meticulous about keeping the home pristine and have implemented effective prevention measures, including ant traps and professional maintenance, which have successfully addressed past ant issues. However, while we strive for a comfortable stay, please be aware that encounters with native wildlife are a natural aspect of Big Bear living, and we do not provide refunds for such occurrences. ⚠️ Mountain Living Notice: Please be aware that mountain conditions occasionally bring unexpected challenges like severe weather events or power outages that are beyond our control. While we make every effort to ensure your comfort, we cannot offer refunds or discounts for these natural occurrences. We recommend travel insurance to protect your vacation investment against unforeseen circumstances. Please note: Our permit strictly limits occupancy to 8 people maximum, including infants and children (even though Airbnb's system may not count them). We appreciate your understanding, as exceeding this limit may result in significant fines or necessary eviction. Please read our House Rules (under Things to know) before booking to ensure our cabin is the perfect fit for your mountain getaway!
