Cozy, Convenient Mountain Retreat with Seamless Check-In
Pros: โOur one-night stay at this Big Bear cabin was incredibly pleasant! The space itself was cute, cozy, and perfectly comfortable for a quick mountain getaway. We were delighted by the thoughtful amenities provided, including a full bath, microwave, fridge, and sink, along with a coffee maker, toaster, utensils, and mugs. We were especially grateful that the hosts provided hand soap and dish soap, as we had forgotten to pack them. The logistics of the stay were seamless and private; the check-in and check-out process was entirely self-service, and the hosts were very responsive. We felt secure knowing the door automatically locks, and the code system for entry worked flawlessly throughout our visit. As it was November, the heater was a lifesaver, warming the cabin quickly, and the hot water came up to temperature fast. The quick Wi-Fi and Smart TV (which was compatible with my tablet) were great for relaxing, and having toilet paper already stocked was a small but appreciated convenience.
Cons: โWhile our experience was overwhelmingly positive, we did encounter a couple of minor maintenance issues. The main problem was the shower, as we noticed water spilling out onto the bathroom floor when we used it. Additionally, the main electrical plug-in near the sink in the bathroom was not working. Finally, the windows were only covered by fabric curtains, and we think that having blinds installed would be more practical and provide better privacy. Thankfully, the electrical issue was easily remedied, as there were plenty of other functional outlets around the cabin that we could use instead. These issues are easily fixable and certainly didn't stop us from enjoying a very cozy and relaxing night in the mountains.

Pros: Location was great! Super close to a trailhead (although the trail was closed while we were there), also a short drive into town. Cabin itself was very cozy and cute, bed was comfortable and so was the bathroom/shower. Definitely a small space but very worth it.
Cons: I think a little more counter space would have been nice. For example if the TV was mounted, that would free up that corner space for storage, food prep etc. Only other thing was ants got in the room and into some of our food, which was a bummer.

Pros: The heater is very cozy, and the shower is hot. The TV has good channels and can stream movies.
Cons: The grill did not come with a propane tank; maybe I missed where it said that in listening but it was unexpected.
